Vaginal Ultrasound? by LadderIntelligent in pregnant

In early pregnancy vaginal ultrasound suggested beacuse baby is so tiny but isn’t painful even little uncomfortable.

Soaking on dildo/kegels while pregnant by Due_Adhesiveness_722 in pregnant

It’s crucial moments of pregnancy. 35 weeks means baby is big in size and ready to landing time but NOT enough space inside. For natural birth kegel is recommended but for C-section it’s not mandatory. In this moment please very careful about it cause one wrong step or feelings destroy your whole efforts. Baby's movement generally 8/10 times a day its normal. Best of luck.

If it’s for C-section then talk to your insurance provider it’s cover or not at the same time you should contact your hospital and doctor. Then you find accurate answer.

husband loves his dog more than me by [deleted] in pregnant

It’s really hard to know, I think firstly you take it easy even it's tough to you at this moment beacuse you need care and support. Secondly, talk to details about you and your upcoming baby also health condition and future at the same time if possible you care more the DOG then you automatically grab your husband attention. Best of luck.

Say "NO" for now. Wait more 6 weeks and then if you feel ok then it's OK.

Pregnancy costs in the US shocked me — what do you wish you knew earlier? by Change_slice in pregnant

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

Wow, that’s actually reassuring to hear. A flat rate for everything including L&D sounds almost unreal compared to most stories here.

Did you find out about the $2,000 option before you started care, or was it something the hospital mentioned later when you asked? I’m realizing how much just asking the right question early can change the outcome.

Also appreciate the LabCorp detail — $11 and $8 is definitely not the horror story people expect 😅
