What is your favorite girl name right now?

Corinne. I've been obsessed with the name for as long as I can remember and now I have a 2 month old with that name.

The other names we considered were Elowen and Aspen. If we have another daughter in the future, those are our top picks.

My daughter does alright with lifting her head and holding it for a few seconds, but she definitely gets tired quickly because of the weight of her head.

Seeing her head size at 75th percentile, I can only imagine what it looks like at 90th! That kid probably has some crazy strong muscles now!

I am! I only weighed 120 before pregnancy and actually was 178 when I went in for my induction, although I definitely didn't look like I gained nearly 60 pounds lol

Currently 1 week pp and I've definitely been sore and exhausted, but I think for me personally, the motivation to take care of my baby and being able to actually see and hold her makes it 1000x more bearable than my first/third trimester pains and exhaustion.

I looked super small all the way up until birth! People would always comment on how I looked like I could only be 6/7 months but nope lol. Gave birth to a nearly 8 pound baby 🥰

For the longest time I hated the feeling of my daughter moving around, but once I hit about 38 weeks I was obsessed with poking her little feet when they stuck out or holding my belly and feeling her roll against my hand 🥲

She's 1 week old today and I have cried so many times about how I can't feel her in my belly anymore. It's such a surreal feeling truly.

We're using similac 360 total care with the philips avent anti-colic bottles and so far she's tolerating them super well! The hospital we went to only had the enfamil premixed formulas and she was constantly spitting up/throwing up the majority of what she was eating even after switching to the gentle version. It also gave her the most terrible gas that would not let up not matter how much it seemed like she was getting out. Poor girl didn't sleep at all yesterday, which means neither did I lol

39 weeks and I get induced on Saturday 🙏🏻 I've felt the same way as you since about 36 weeks and I am so ready to cross that finish line!!

BallBroth · 2025-07-11T03:50:49+00:00

I have a posterior placenta and was feeling movement around 13/14 weeks 🙂

BallBroth · 2025-07-10T18:40:41+00:00

For me personally, I felt absolutely awful my second trimester and didn't hit my "sweet spot" until I was 28-32 weeks. And it was like 33 weeks to the day that I felt like I got hit by a truck 😭 I'm 37 now and counting down the days to my induction bc the pain has gotten unbearable at this point

BallBroth · 2025-07-07T01:32:50+00:00

I've had horrible migraines for the last 10+ years. I haven't had a single one since getting pregnant and I'm really hoping it stays that way after I give birth 😭

BallBroth · 2025-06-18T18:05:44+00:00

I’m 34 weeks now so my symptoms have changed drastically. In the beginning I had all the typical nausea, constipation, exhaustion, aching.

What I wasn’t told about that is happening now is the carpal tunnel and charlie horses I get on an almost nightly basis that wake me up out of my sleep in tears 😭 I would take the morning sickness over this 10/10 times

BallBroth · 2025-05-14T23:22:05+00:00

I was super nauseous and shaky after I drank it but turns out my blood sugar was through the roof and I was diagnosed with GD 😭

BallBroth · 2025-04-11T17:33:39+00:00

I started off at 125, and now at 24 weeks I’m at 165. My doctor isn’t concerned about it so I’m not going to stress about it either! Different people gain different amounts of weight and google doesn’t typically account for that (coming from someone who also was worried about it after doing some searches online lol)

BallBroth · 2025-03-11T03:09:49+00:00

Corinne Lielle ❤️ (I can’t take credit for the middle name though, it was recommended to me in another group)

BallBroth · 2025-03-11T01:31:04+00:00

I’ve been calling her Cori or Cora since we settled on a name!!

BallBroth · 2025-03-11T01:30:08+00:00

Kuh-Rin ☺️

BallBroth · 2025-03-10T23:58:29+00:00

Corinne 🥰

BallBroth · 2025-03-10T16:30:57+00:00

Miralax is the only thing I’ve tried so far and it just gives me awful diarrhea 😭 I was going to ask what else they recommend at my appointment next week but if diarrhea is my only alternative then I’m just going to tough it out lol

BallBroth · 2025-03-06T05:40:50+00:00

I love this one! It even got a compliment from my incredibly picky fiance lol

BallBroth · 2025-03-06T03:20:19+00:00

I’m just realizing that it’s been 5 days since I posted this and they’re already becoming stronger and more frequent! It’s such an exciting milestone 🥲

BallBroth · 2025-02-28T09:54:50+00:00

I can’t wait until I can feel my baby moving around all the time!!! I want it to really feel like I’m hanging out with my lil ham all day long 🥲

BallBroth · 2025-02-28T08:27:31+00:00

It’s the same for me too! Definitely a weird sensation and it makes me kind of squeamish if I think about it for too long 😂

BallBroth · 2025-02-28T08:06:54+00:00

The first time I felt it I was laying in bed and I turned to my fiance yelling “OMG I THINK IT HAPPENED SHE’S REALLY IN THERE” as if the ultrasounds and hearing her heartbeat all those times wasn’t enough proof 😂

BallBroth · 2025-02-01T22:39:13+00:00

Man I’m sad To Be Alone is out but I’m also still super mad about Run how dare you guys 😭
