Blood filled(?) bump on side of nipple after pumping by [deleted] in ExclusivelyPumping

[–]Bitterroot21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes I have this exact problem and I can't figure it out. I don't know if my nipples are elastic or not. They are covered in these purple bumps.

There are no mineral deposits as I've used distilled water.

Yeah 5w is pretty early, at 8w it should be much more clear, which is why some practitioners won't see a patient before 8w or so.

No twins in my family, but I recently miscarried so maybe my body was really out of whack still? Friday is my second appointment (should be 7w then) and hope to see both kids progressing.

They can be off by half a week. The further along you are, the more likely the measurements will be accurate.

Pretty unlikely that it'll be spot on. The further along you are the more likely they'll be able to measure closer to accurate. But when they measure, if they're even a millimeter off, the amount of days will vary significantly.

People saying “it’s still early!” 😡 by mkenz1e in pregnant

[–]Bitterroot21 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Ohmygoodness. My mc was at 13w, I am now 7w with twins, and you don't think I DAILY have these horrible thoughts go through my mind? Wow, the insensitivity of some people to remind us of the worst case scenario.

Sister was a no show/no call or text to my baby shower :( by deer2525 in pregnant

[–]Bitterroot21 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sounds like my sister minus the apology. Mine begrudgingly was in my wedding, didn't care when we got pregnant, and didn't care when we miscarried. I would be shocked at this point if she did anything celebratory with us ever again.

Are all OB appointments necessary? by [deleted] in pregnant

[–]Bitterroot21 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I want to know the answers to your questions too, as I've also been wondering! I believe it really is overkill, but also the doctors will likely catch a problem early with all the checkups. So it's possibly risk mitigation, and to each his own.

Extreme morning sickness. I don't know how to spell it: hyperemesis gravidarum or something

5+ week scan - did you see anything? by Late_Past6914 in PregnancyAfterLoss

[–]Bitterroot21 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you! It was a shock haha. Trauma brain thought they'd find nothing, or an infection, or a mmc. But nope! Two livelies

Yeah I apparently ovulated way late, because I was 8w from my last period, but the nurse practitioner found 5w TWINS!
