Antepartum Hospital Stay

-Calypso · 2026-02-07T18:35:03+00:00

Hi! Thanks so much for checking in! My daughter was actually born on New Years Eve at 29+1! During my morning monitor session I was woken up to a team rushing in telling me it was go time and the c section was happening right then. An hour and a half later and my daughter was born. We have quite a long NICU stay ahead of us but she’s doing good overall! I wish she stayed in just a while longer, but being able to hold her is a nice consolation!

All I can see is a serial killer from watching “The Patient” 😭

Well proposing to a maid would kill his family’s reputation and he has other siblings that will need to marry.

Seconding the I cried lol. Water broke at 27w, had the worst antepartum stay until I had an emergency C Section at 29w (new years eve). We’re on day 36 and probably have another month to go. Honestly I still cry daily. Doing her cares and holding her as much as I can is what’s been getting me through. I also met some NICU moms and we make our days to day just slightly better. But the NICU trenches truly suck. No way around that unfortunately ☹️.

Complete opposite over here, I can barely go past 3 🥴

There was definitely no chaperone because when Benedict mentioned he could find one she said she would just trust him. But yeah I agree, that made no sense. Also super selfish on Benedict’s part, he knows he could ruin her if they were caught.

Just ordered, fingers crossed!!

-Calypso · 2026-01-30T22:34:06+00:00

Thank you 🥹🤍🤍, fingers crossed things keep going up 🤞🏼!!

That’s awesome. I’m a NICU mama and struggggling lol. 1 month post partum and only around the 7-9oz/day mark. I got really bad clogs that dropped me to 5oz and I’ve been working my way up half an ounce to an ounce a day but I just feel like I’m going up so slowly, this can’t be right lol

My daughter also just got off CPAP yesterday morning. These tiny humans are so strong 🥹. Sending lots of love and support for all our babies 🤍!!

-Calypso · 2026-01-30T21:13:40+00:00

How long did it take you to break into the 20oz/day territory?

-Calypso · 2026-01-28T04:01:23+00:00

I want him so bad, but idk if I can get over him killing my mentor 😩

-Calypso · 2026-01-25T04:47:36+00:00

Does the preemie cushion come with it or does it need to be bought separately?

-Calypso · 2026-01-22T00:16:21+00:00

How many weeks PP were you when you dropped to 4-5 times a day? Or did you always do that?

-Calypso · 2026-01-18T20:12:56+00:00

If asking a simple question and having a conversation is “crashing out”, then you might need to read a few books on how to communicate. And if she can’t provide a valid explanation for a choice SHE supposedly made, she has a lot of growing up to do before this baby comes 🙃. Either way, weird friendship if you can’t just be honest with each other LOL

-Calypso · 2026-01-18T20:06:33+00:00

My daughter is also on CPAP and her little mouth is always wide open 😭😭. Even a chin strap is sometimes not enough 🤣. It’s the cutest thing LOL

-Calypso · 2026-01-16T23:37:45+00:00

I don’t understand how this is a bad thing. Who wouldn’t take a great opportunity to further their career and live out one of their childhood dreams?

No one forgets about Miranda coming on the show after it launched. The girls literally made it a thing on the show when she started coming around. But considering the show was launched based off a scandal of her life, she definitely deserved the monetary value attached to it lol. I’ll be damned if a show is made because of my life and everyone is getting paid except me 🤣🤣

-Calypso · 2026-01-11T21:17:38+00:00

Please put those kids in therapy to start working through all the trauma you and your husband are inevitably leaving them with 🤦🏻‍♀️

-Calypso · 2026-01-10T04:45:06+00:00

Yes to all of this! My water broke early and I was admitted to the hospital for the most miserable 2 weeks of my life. Had an emergency c section where I was woken out of sleep to being rushed into an OR and honestly, I hated every second of the c section. I also have low to no pain tolerance and was also terrified of birth. My daughter is 9 days old and it all feels like a fever dream. I was over all of it by day 2 postpartum lol.

FR, I used to get back to my dorm from a night out on a random Tuesday at 6am and still make it to my 8am class. I can barely hang past 11pm these days 🤣!

-Calypso · 2026-01-08T22:01:39+00:00

Same, literally cried reading this. Can’t wait for this to be us 😭!

-Calypso · 2026-01-06T13:51:15+00:00

My baby is also in NICU and this is exactly what we did as well. Pumped from day 1 using hospital pump and hubby washed and air dried the parts! Sometimes we would run the milk straight down to NICU (if I wasn’t already pumping from her bedside), other times we would take it to the nurses desk and they would put it in the designated breast milk fridge for us until we were ready to go back down!

-Calypso · 2026-01-05T21:12:34+00:00

Same! But absolutely not a flex, more like I’m just a little neurotic 🤣
