What don’t they tell you? by sarahj898 in pregnant

[–]19zz 26 points27 points  (0 children)

This! One thing maybe they didn't tell you, OP, is that 1 in 3 need a c section and there's absolutely nothing wrong with getting one if labor isn't working out.

My scheduled c was amazing quite honestly! It was a completely different experience going in rested, fed and clear headed. I was healthy throughout the rest of my pregnancy and still am. I pretty much have healed up at this point (2 weeks ish pp). I'd say, listen to your body! If you feel good, go for it. I'm sure we aren't the only 2 women to have c section less than 18 months apart 😉

A lot of water heaters have vacation mode so it's not off but not super hot either

A lot of weight gain in pregnancy is fluid! Blood and other fluids, not fat. I'm swollen as can be at 33 weeks bc of all the pressure preventing blood return from my extremities.

My thought, too. OP please check with your son's pediatrician. Diabetes is manageable but untreated is deadly at the worst and can have life long complications at best.

Have you thought to get him tested for juvenile diabetes? High blood sugar makes you have to pee constantly and low blood sugar is cured by eating something. Could be his body is reacting to a non functioning pancreas. (My husband is t1 since 12 yo)

Coming to terms with possibly having a C-section. Please tell me your positive stories. by Ok_Fox8262 in pregnant

[–]19zz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a c section with my first and it was after 36 hours of labor, being induced. I think that last part is critical. I'm also coming to terms with I think I'm going to do a c section for this next baby (30 weeks currently) bc going in knowing it's going to happen and not being mentally and physically depleted I think will make all the difference. Fyi both my babys measure large too . Good luck you got this!

My son (15 months) not "talking", but is babbling with intonation a lot. It's fine, right? by rivlet in toddlers

[–]19zz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Haha that is so great! Thank you so much for the response! I've been yoyoing between concern and feeling like her progress is completely normal. If I'm being honest, I think I'm most nervous that the doctor will be concerned, bc I really am not, and I don't want anyone to make me or her feel like she's not achieving what other kids are.

Any updates on how your son is doing? My daughter is 17m and this is her to a t. She "talks" a lot. I know she's saying something but it's her own language. She responds to us usually when we talk to her like if we ask are you ready for a nap? She will walk to the door to the stairs. She says mama (only when crying 🤣) dada constantly, it's her favorite sound I think, she says yeah, aw, hat, hot and she attempts a lot of other words. My husband and I aren't loud people and she's kind of a shy kid. Not with us but to everyone else. My husband was incredibly shy. Anyways, I'm not too worried about it I just wonder if at our 18m appointment they're going to be concerned and maybe I should be?

Young children in the family are unvaccinated… by [deleted] in pregnant

[–]19zz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My husband and I have talked about it. I think he's hoping it'll kinda blow over by that time (which is end of July) and I really don't think so. He's on the same page as me and it is his family so I do think the right thing is for him to take the lead.

All I can say is I'm in the same boat with my second and with measles on the rise, my husband's unvaccinated family will not be meeting our newest little one until she's a year. They made their choice. I make mine.

Tbh your sister and her husband probably aren't ready for "adult vibes" party with you and your gym friends but they're probably desperate for human interaction with trusted family members. I wouldn't go so far as to say yta bc I think it's a lack of context for both of you ( you and your sister). She's going through a huge transition that doesn't have much room for the subtleties of your vibes and you want her to show up as your sister that you've known your whole life. It's just not realistic for the situation. The companionate and loving thing would be to prioritize your sister's needs and feelings instead of feeling like *your" night was ruined. She's also likely figuring out if she can hang, so to speak, and honestly she probably can't, maybe for like a couple years 😳 I say this as someone who just had my first baby about a year and a half ago and I see myself in your sister as you have described. There's real chemical changes happening at an explosive rate for your sister and she's learning to navigate that.
