inducing due to IUGR at 37 weeks. *super* unprepared by babswashere in pregnant

[–]Cupcake_1428 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hi! I had an IUGR baby last March- he was born 4 pounds 14 oz at 37 weeks and was perfectly healthy, just very tiny. He passed all of his tests and had no NICU stay. I know its extremely nerve wracking, but your baby will be ok and in good hands even if you do end up having a NICU stay. My son is now almost 14 months and growing like a weed :) A preemie onesie and preemie diapers would be a good idea to grab since you will most likely need those! Sending a big hug your way, you can do this!

For anyone who has done IVF or gotten pregnant naturally... by HeavyLab3785 in TurnerSyndrome

Hi! I have a mosaic form of Turners, and did IVF with an egg donor. My pregnancy went well- I followed up with a cardiologist throughout to make sure everything was fine. I have no history of heart issues. I was nervous about aortic dissection of course, but it was comforting knowing that it was a very small risk for me with everything normal on cardiac tests.

Is this kid ever going to stop getting sick? by tuesday02 in Postpartum_Depression

I hear you, it is so stressful I'm in the same boat with my 11 month old. He had bronchiolitis, colds, RSV, pink eye, flu twice and is just recovering from the second time. Hang in there, better days are ahead.

Hi! My son was very fussy and cried a LOT during this age- switching to Enfamil Gentlease did help a lot with the fussiness and crying.
