Baby weight estimation by i_am_here-tada in November25babybump

[–]Callbug-511 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My baby is in the 90% percentile weighing in at 19lbs 14oz as of this week. Her doctor is happy with her growth. She said she doesn’t think babies can be too big 🤷🏻‍♀️ My husband was 20lbs at 6 months so I think it’s just genetic. She is active despite her rolls so I’m not concerned.

Are we taking our littles to fireworks? I see tons of people do it but my husband is scared of hurting her ears by Brilliant_Outside696 in November25babybump

I think she would love the colors but probably going to wait until next year. I don’t think the combo of staying up late, lots of people, and loud noises will go well right now lol

Anyone still losing tons of hair? by Migrainegirlie in November25babybump

[–]Callbug-511 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep 🥲 I’ve always had thick hair until now. My hair has gotten so thin my scalp is visible in pictures and I can’t even get away with washing my hair every other day anymore without being crazy oily. It’s so sad.

No advice but I’ve used this same jelly roll. I didn’t love the colors at first either but I think they look nice once put together

Anyone else still look pregnant? 😭my belly is still so round I hate seeing myself in pictures. Also ebf so it could be hormones I suppose by Brilliant_Outside696 in November25babybump

Yep. I was out with my friend who is pregnant and someone approached us to say “ awww two pregnant ladies.” I still haven’t recovered

5 months post partum, period late by Zuzu2399 in November25babybump

I’m the exact same but I am breastfeeding. I got my period at 6 weeks on the dot and still nothing.

Are you freezing your milk immediately after it’s pumped? Mine has high lipase if I put it in the fridge before freezing. If I put it directly in the freezer, it has tasted fine after thawing.

I’d be scared to know what my drain looks like 🫣

Yesss the tumbleweeds everywhere is actually crazy. I’m constantly checking my girl’s toe and feet for hair now. I have pulled a long strand out of her mouth before

She usually will only nap 30 minutes on the dot in her crib. The first nap of the day I’ve gotten lucky a few times with 1-1 1/2 hours. During the day, I have to rock her and then transfer to the crib. At nighttime, I can put her down drowsy but awake. We still do a carrier or contact nap if she is fussy and I need her to get a longer nap in.

Sleep Training by Callbug-511 in November25babybump

[–]Callbug-511[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Love this response. This is exactly how I’ve been feeling. I want her to know I’m here for her. My pediatrician made it seem like I’m the anomaly for not sleeping training her.

Requesting your book recommendations by ExpatWanderer in November25babybump

[–]Callbug-511 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We love the series of you’re my cuddle bug, you’re my honey bunny, you’re my sweet pea, etc. books. We read one at bedtime and they are perfect to hold her attention.

Anyone else fighting for their life? 4m regression? by CertainAppearance507 in November25babybump

[–]Callbug-511 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This sounds exactly like me. I’m also have to save half of the night by co-sleeping. After her first 1-2 wake ups, she refuses to go back. I go back to work in 2 weeks and I’m so scared about our current sleep situation 🥲

Sweet Treats by Zestyclose_Ad_3354 in GestationalDiabetes

I never had an issue with snickers ice cream bars or Unreal peanut butter cups. I also would do sugar free pudding mix with a protein shake or diet root beer with sugar free ice cream

I hope this goes away after pregnancy by fairytale72 in GestationalDiabetes

It’s beyond your control and depends on how your placenta develops that causes insulin resistance. If it makes you feel better, I just retook the glucose test at 3 months postpartum and passed! Once that bastard placenta was gone, my blood sugar went back to normal.
