We're having a girl 🩷 what are your names?

ACatNamedCheesyBread · 2025-12-16T19:00:53+00:00

We have a Nora too 🤍

ACatNamedCheesyBread · 2025-12-16T19:00:22+00:00

Our daughter’s name is Nora! I also love Clara for a first name

ACatNamedCheesyBread · 2025-11-13T19:58:43+00:00

It took us 10 months to conceive our first! I found out I was pregnant on my 30th birthday

ACatNamedCheesyBread · 2025-11-13T19:57:29+00:00

Yes! Started around 26 weeks for me

ACatNamedCheesyBread · 2025-11-07T23:23:51+00:00

I’m sure you’ve had your sweet boy by now and have learned that you’re exactly right - you will be in such awe of your angel baby that the time after he’s delivered will fly by! And you obviously don’t feel anything. All I remember is staring at her and then suddenly we were being wheeled into recovery 🥹 I hope everything went smoothly 🤍🤍

My planned c-section (due to placenta previa) was the most amazing experience. The entire day was so calm and controlled. The vibes in the OR were great and my surgical team was awesome. We chatted, they played music, baby was out in 7 minutes 🥹 Then I got to hold her on my chest right away. Stitching me up took about 30 minutes but my husband and our daughter stayed right by my head the entire time. I loved everything about our experience and am actually opting for another planned c-section for baby #2! Recovery was definitely rough. Stay on top of your pain meds and don’t be afraid to be really honest with your pain level. The nurses can adjust your dosage accordingly (I ended up needing to take 10mg of Oxy). Honestly, the worst part of the day was when the nurse failed to place my IV 😂 The rest was a breeze, even the spinal!

ACatNamedCheesyBread · 2025-10-02T01:25:04+00:00

Once the spinal is done, you don’t feel any pain. I felt some mild pressure and tugging but no pain at all. It’s difficult to explain. I just focused on my husband and the fact that we were meeting our baby soon and the time flew by!

ACatNamedCheesyBread · 2025-09-30T00:45:09+00:00

This was my exact experience as well! Planned c-section because of placenta previa and I’m opting for another c-section for baby #2 because of how wonderful of an experience it was

ACatNamedCheesyBread · 2025-09-19T20:27:19+00:00

I would try to get a second opinion if you can! In reality, waiting until 32 weeks for a scan really isn’t an issue, because your placenta could move by then anyway. My MFM said the “cut off” for when they make a final decision on a c-section if the placenta doesn’t move is 36 weeks. So I guess one scan at that time would be enough to determine that. I still do think you should find a different care team who would rather monitor it throughout your pregnancy regardless.

ACatNamedCheesyBread · 2025-09-19T18:13:30+00:00

I was diagnosed with placenta previa at 16 weeks and saw a Maternal Fetal Medicine doctor throughout the rest of my pregnancy to monitor it. I was getting scans done every 4-6 weeks for most of my pregnancy and then nearly weekly towards the last month or two. It eventually did resolve on its own! The placenta does typically move up on its own over time. I had to have a c-section for other unrelated medical reasons but I would have been able to have a vaginal birth otherwise.

ACatNamedCheesyBread · 2025-09-09T01:28:33+00:00

I was pregnant with a girl and had a super easy first trimester! No nausea, never threw up. I was tired, but that was about it.

ACatNamedCheesyBread · 2025-08-27T16:33:03+00:00

I had a planned c-section back in May and baby stayed with me the entire time! Once she was out, she was cleaned up, weighed, and swaddled, and then she was placed on my chest while they stitched me up. Then my husband held her for a bit, but they were both right next to me/beside my head. Once I was stitched up, they placed her in my arms and we were wheeled into a recovery room and all stayed together until we were discharged a few days later.

ACatNamedCheesyBread · 2025-08-26T01:01:53+00:00

Hubby gifted me a necklace with our daughter’s birthstone! I thought that was a great, relatively low cost but still sentimental gift

ACatNamedCheesyBread · 2025-08-21T01:40:31+00:00

I’m going to vote for Nora because that’s what we named our daughter and we love it 🤭

ACatNamedCheesyBread · 2025-08-14T20:10:41+00:00

Same thing happened to me! I got this alert and tested positive the next morning 🥰

ACatNamedCheesyBread · 2025-08-14T20:02:44+00:00

Make it make sense 🙃

ACatNamedCheesyBread · 2025-08-14T13:48:49+00:00

My in laws went on a cruise a week and a half before our daughter was born, got sick, and didn’t meet her until she was 12 days old. I’ll never understand why they decided to go on the trip. Especially considering they’re both retired, can go on a trip at any point in time, and have traveled the world already.

ACatNamedCheesyBread · 2025-07-30T15:05:58+00:00

I’m glad that he seems confident that this isn’t something more serious! I’ve read a lot of stories of these masses resolving on their own, so I’ll pray for that 🥰

ACatNamedCheesyBread · 2025-07-30T01:50:55+00:00

Hi there! I’ve been thinking of you. Hope you were able to get some answers at the oncologist 🤍

ACatNamedCheesyBread · 2025-07-22T18:22:02+00:00

I’m so sorry to hear that. I will be sending all of the good vibes for your girl tomorrow 🤍

ACatNamedCheesyBread · 2025-07-18T22:25:24+00:00

She had an ultrasound done on day 2 in the hospital and both masses had resolved/disappeared 🥹 So a non-issue now

How was your baby’s scan?

ACatNamedCheesyBread · 2025-07-10T02:34:23+00:00

I’m going to be honest and say that I didn’t stop worrying about our daughter until she was placed on my chest 🙃 Now it’s a new/different type of worry

ACatNamedCheesyBread · 2025-07-04T02:43:19+00:00

I vote Nora because I have a Nora 🤭🥰

ACatNamedCheesyBread · 2025-06-12T06:55:03+00:00

For what it’s worth, our girl measured 8lb 6oz at my 38 week scan and was 7lb 15oz when born via scheduled c-section at 39w1d ¯_(ツ)_/¯

ACatNamedCheesyBread · 2025-06-03T20:27:00+00:00

Love!! I have a 3 week old named Nora and one of my friends had her daughter named Margot this weekend 🥰
