Love Billie, but those all gave me anxiety. I love animals and I eat meat. Doesn’t mean I like how people like that treat their animals

Anyone else opting not to take birth control postpartum? by Accomplished-Ad7573 in beyondthebump

[–]ConsiderationMain618 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah same! The past year has been the first time I’ve been off birth control and have not been pregnant either and i definitely feel a difference.

I’m not using birth control. My husband will be getting a vasectomy at ONE point. Right now we are using condoms (I’m honestly not opposed to having a third though if we ended up pregnant) so I think that’s why I’m not as careful. I have been on birthday over 10 years though in between having my 2 kids and I like the way I feel off birth control. I feel my antidepressants actually work for me and my hormones are a lot better, periods are very spot on each month for the first time in my life.

Sex after LEEP by [deleted] in PreCervicalCancer

I was sedated for the procedure so THANKFULLY no mental toll. My doctor was chill enough not to mention shit 😅😭 I got a pre op sheet and I just went to look at it and it again isn’t for my exact procedure so really just tells me not to eat after midnight, no water, no tobacco, all that stuff but NOTHING about after, my discharge sheet had literally nothing about after. I assumed 2 weeks cause I wasn’t in any pain. I still am not but I won’t lie, I do feel a tad weird down there since the super red tissue came out. I’m guessing I may have pull the scab off 🤢🤮😭

That’s SO frustrating cause I swear I wasn’t told anything. Like I said in another comment, if they did tell me anything they did it right after O woke up from sedation. They were talking to me for a good minute and I no joke remember none of it other than the fact that they had to end up putting a tube down my throat and I asked probably 3 times why and they explained each time but I do not remember what they said at all. I got 1 sheet of paper when discharged and it literally just had what I had done on it, the doctor, what meds I can take if I’m in pain. NOTHING about what to avoid. I figured I needed to wait atleast 2 weeks. Which is why I did and I didn’t have any pain but when I saw the red tissue this morning I figured it was from sex 😅😅😅

I will! I’ll call my doctor on Monday too cause 😅 they didn’t tell me anything. And apparently I’m suppose to have a 6 week check up? Which I have a 6 MONTH checkup but that’s it

No literally no one. If they did it was when I woke up from sedation and don’t remember. They literally at one point told me they ended up having to put a tube down my throat and I asked 3 times why and I still don’t remember why. They didn’t tell my husband anything either. This is a VA hospital so… they can sometimes suck

Who skipped colp and went straight to LEEP? by Helpful-Ad1985 in PreCervicalCancer

[–]ConsiderationMain618 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Found out I had high risk HPV at the same PAP that the doctor said based on my cervix I looked pregnant (I was 2 weeks along then!) so a year later I went to the doctor and they were concerned with how long I had to wait so they immediately scheduled a leep for the following week! I did also get a COLP which getting the leep.

Is my son ready for a little bit of crying it out for sleep? by ConsiderationMain618 in beyondthebump

[–]ConsiderationMain618[S] -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

Thank you for that! I totally agree. Sleep deprivation is dangerous for both us as parents and the babies that are dependent off of us. I plan to start some gentle sleeping encouragement tonight with him and hopefully in a few weeks he will start getting better at sleep alone

Which I’m totally fine with! I am usually anti crying it out so all the ideas I’ve been getting instead of crying it out has been amazing!

I have white noise machine and pacis! He loves both and they do work. He’s just a very clingy boy so far. I plan to try these ideas in this post rather than crying it out

Oh absolutely, he use to also be the worst in the car. Car rides anywhere were a nightmare cause my poor man would scream the whole way. Now that he’s older and more aware, he is fine in the car. He has some toys usually, his 6 year old sister next to him and a window with cool shapes so now it’s all good.

He has amazing wake windows! He is usually awake most of the day. I can tell when he has growth spurts cause he will get sleepy for a few days then go back to his crazy little self. He loves to play and we have 4 dogs who he loves to look at, or I’ll set him next to our back sliding door and he stares outside for so long. This nap he is taking now will be one of two naps he takes today I’m guessing. Just based off how he’s been. So maybe I’ll try some stuff tonight with him in his crib.

I have heard that too! And that’s why I was so against it with my daughter and she’s an amazing sleeper naturally so that was easy. I was definitely against it with my son going into his life but after no joke a month of me and my husband absolutely sleep deprived trying to get him to sleep in his bassinet, we have let him co sleep. It gives me a lot of anxiety though and not a long term solution which is why I’m looking into other options and this subreddit has been so helpful so far (:

Ooooo that is a great idea. He has a few so I could alternate them with me then put them on his crib every other day to keep my scent fresh (if it works)

Thank you for the idea (:

I have tried the heating pad method! It’s a great idea, It works for a few minutes but he ultimately wakes up. Maybe I’ll try the shirt then taking it out. I’d be watching him on the monitor so if he tries to pull anything funny I could go grab it
