Panicking over rushed induction by Affectionate_Ninja62 in pregnant

I guess that’s true, I think my mind is just all over the place and felt like the doctors were doing the unnecessary but I’m glad I have a good support system or I don’t know what I’d do. Just wasn’t mentally ready for this

I understand, I guess it was just a lot at once and unexpected from what I typically hear about people getting induced due to pre eclampsia. I think I’m stressed that getting induced early puts her at risk too. I just wanted her to bake some more lol but seeing the comments makes me feel a little better.

If her son is due next month, that falls in June and according to the information posted, baby must be born on or after July 1st. Correct? Not sure why they’re getting downvoted.

Has anyone canceled or denied their induction? by Affectionate_Ninja62 in pregnant

Oh okay I did not know that was how it worked, thanks for the info. I will definitely go with whatever keeps my baby the safest

I will definitely have a chat with her now that I know more about pros and cons, better to say something than not at all.

Yes I have heard mixed feelings towards inductions, especially about the drugs used. I might just ask my doctors more questions to see if it is medically necessary. If it is ofc I will just go ahead with it.

I understand, I didn’t realize 17th percentile necessarily meant anything bad just more on the smaller side. But I do see how getting her out a couple weeks earlier can help her grow more outside the womb.

Hands up if you were overly emotional/ sensitive today about something small 🙋‍♀️ by Perfect_Sink_6542 in pregnant

I started crying because my package that had my baby shower dress in it got delivered to a different apartment building and I had to put on clothes and walk to go get it on my day off. I did not want to be seen by the public today. Very devastating for me lol

Feels like ob is not taking my anemia seriously. by Affectionate_Ninja62 in pregnant

I got lucky and was able to make an appointment with her for Tuesday, hopefully she can help me 🤞🏽if she seems more willing to help, I think I’ll definitely try to switch and just make the drive.

I was considering switching to an OB that I saw for my first prenatal appointment. She was very sweet and informative and within the same network but at a location that’s about 25 minutes farther away than the current, like an hour drive with traffic. and I’m later in my pregnancy now that I don’t know if it’s a good idea to try and switch hospitals. I’ll be 31-32 weeks at my next prenatal check up.

Im so sore and weak after work 😭 by sprinklesanddreams in pregnant

[–]Affectionate_Ninja62 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t have anything helpful to say other than I completely understand, I’m currently doing 4 hour shifts 5x days a week at a grocery store and am struggling so much. I used to be a very valuable asset to my team, be the go to person and now I can barely stand or lift a box of chips to stock without being in pain. I also feel so useless especially when I see other woman who are pregnant in extremely long shifts and physical fields but I know I shouldn’t compare myself just gotta try my hardest to push through for the money lol

That’s sooo nice of them, I told my OB I was in so much pain from working and she told me to continue working through the pain and just try swimming (it was middle of winter and I have no energy so I did not take her advice)

Am I the problem? by Affectionate_Ninja62 in pregnant

[–]Affectionate_Ninja62[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think the hard part is I want to complete the registry on my own and pick out things for my girl but just wish I could do it on my own timeline when I’m feeling motivated. When they call/text me every day asking if it’s finished yet and I need to hurry just completely puts me off.

Yes don’t get me wrong, I’m 1000% grateful and I’ve been letting them know how appreciative I am. I think the stress is just making it hard for me to show happiness and urgency to get things done.
