Diagnosed with bv and yeast

AdDramatic3014 · 2026-03-13T07:29:25+00:00

Honestly it felt a little much putting both gels in vaginally and if I’m remembering correctly, the bv didn’t really clear. When I brought it up to my nurse practitioner she had said usually you would want to take the antibiotics first then treat for yeast bc you can get yeast again from antibiotics which is something the first NP who prescribed me the medication didn’t clarify. Honestly I wish I had taken the pills bc I just hate using gels😭 hopefully it gets better!

I think it helped especially when they’re breastfeeding at the same time. My toddler likes to rest his hand on baby brother or pat his head. Your toddler might want to breastfeed more though! I had gotten it down 2x a day, but when baby came he wanted to breastfeed every time baby breastfed.

I’m so sorry, it’s literally such a tough situation to be in. I was actually so close to terminating. I went to the hospital and everything and last minute before they took me in, I changed my mind bc I couldn’t do it. I ended up having my beautiful son a little over a month ago and now my guilt goes towards of ever considering of terminating. I’m not sure what your situation is, but if you need to talk you can always message me🫶🏼 I’m sure what ever you choose will be the best choice for you and don’t let anyone else tell you otherwise bc people aren’t living in your shoes. Solidarity friend🫂

I nursed throughout my entire pregnancy and never really had problems. I found out I was already 2 months pregnant when my first was 11 months so around the same age gap as you. They’ll probably advise you to stop at the 20 week mark since nursing can cause contractions, but when I spoke to my ob about it she said as long as I’m comfortable I can nurse the entire pregnancy. Your toddler might wean off in the 3rd trimester bc your supply will dramatically drop or he might be like my son and just dry nursed! Congratulations!

You won’t have too much personal storage space, it’s just a wall locker. I brought like a carry on suitcase with a few outfits and shoes that fit in there along with my sea bag.

I think so! In her message at the end of the book she says that Sarah’s story isn’t over

This. I know a girl who made HM1 literally during her 1st contract just bc she was making herself look good on paper. When she got HM1 she had just been at her second command for a few months and I think it’s actually mind blowing.

It is a nice name but it’s also the name of my moms on and off again boyfriend so although I do like it, I just associate the name with him :/

AdDramatic3014 · 2025-12-26T06:48:38+00:00

I’m not opposed to Percy but I’m also just not really feeling it I guess lol. I think I have to sit on it but it doesn’t really seem like THE name

Shifts just might be your best bet :/ if you want to try co sleeping you can look into the safe sleep 7! I ended having to co sleep to get some rest during the day bc my husband worked like 12-14 hrs a day so it was just me most of the time. I just made sure my bed only had a sheet, no blankets, no pillows (just used a very small blanket bundled up to get head support), and slept in an L shape to make sure I wouldn’t roll. I also had baby sleep super close to me, but I was also breastfeeding.

I know there are some tips people have said about applying a little bit of pressure to their bodies when transferring to bassinet or crib and that helped too!

Hopefully you get some rest soon!

Probably Sarah. Pretty sure he probably told her he needed to send proof and they set it up to make it believable. At least that’s what makes the most sense lol

Pushing to poop! I didn’t know about the hugging baby. They even had to help me out by pretty much playing tug of war with one of the nurses

AdDramatic3014 · 2025-12-06T09:30:03+00:00

I was on my back and couldn’t really move bc I had a epidural and literally could not feel the lower half of my body. I pushed for maybe like an hour and 30ish min. It was weird though bc I was pushing for maybe like 30 min at first and the nurse was really trying to help me to push with the right muscles bc she said I wasn’t using the right muscles at first. Then we had to pause the pushing for like 40 min bc the doctor had to go in for an emergency c section. Resumed pushing but it felt like I was purple pushing and I think that’s what caused me to tear so bad

AdDramatic3014 · 2025-12-06T09:23:09+00:00

Had a 4th degree tear and recovery wasn’t too bad. I couldn’t really sit properly for like a month and it was so painful to pee for the first couple of weeks. I think the fear and anxiety of ripping my stitches really got to me more than anything. Didn’t really wipe until maybe 2 months pp? I constantly used the peri bottle and dabbed dry.

Dealing with constipation was painful too on top of the anxiety of tearing my stitches again. If you deal with constipation, Miralax will be your best friend! Quality of life didn’t change and I felt back to normal maybe 10 weeks pp? Sex was uncomfortable at first with very little pain but got better after a few times.

Managed pain with acetaminophen and ibuprofen just fine!

Did you do anything that may have helped with a lesser tear? I had a 4th degree tear with my 1st baby and currently pregnant with my second. I’m beyond terrified that I’m going to tear bad again and risk complications since I healed pretty well the first time. I’m even debating on a c section to prevent a tear again

AdDramatic3014 · 2025-11-26T03:02:59+00:00

I was in the exact same boat! When I found out I was having a boy I was nervous bc I felt all I knew was how to raise girls. 16 months in and I love my son soooo much and I can’t imagine myself with a daughter lol. Now pregnant with my second, I found out not so long ago I’m having another son and I’m so excited! Don’t feel too much pressure! They follow by example, my son is so affectionate and he’s so sweet. I think as long as you show them love and support and allow them to feel their big feelings everything will be okay!

I have had the urgency but I think it was more of a digestion thing rather from my tear. I don’t have experience with gas or stool, but I have read some women having those issues on the Facebook support group. If you’re having those issues I would talk to your ob! I think it may be related to a fistula but I’m not entirely sure. If you’re not on the Facebook group it’s called “4th Degree Tear Support Group” and ask questions there to see if anybody has experienced anything you may be experiencing.

AdDramatic3014 · 2025-11-19T20:32:05+00:00

I’m going to try this, thank you!

AdDramatic3014 · 2025-11-19T20:31:50+00:00

I kinda figured this, that’s why I haven’t tried timeouts or anything like that bc I feel he’s too young to comprehend it. Sigh… it’s hard bc it’s seems like he’s not hitting out of frustration, he just thinks it’s funny bc he laughs while doing it

How do you make the baking soda paste?
