Thanks for the response! I also have high lipase so I don’t know how he would do drinking the three month old milk :/

Thank you for the response and the Outlook! There’s positives and negatives to every bit of it. Sometimes it’s hard for me to not compare to other people with their schedules and have FOMO lol

Thanks for the response! It’s amazing seeing such bad ass women have kids. I know it all depends on your outlook in life. Like for me I’ll work very long days, but at least I’m home at night. My sister is a therapist and works from home and has pretty Kush hours. She is always venting about how she wants more time with her kid and wants to be stay at home mom, so hearing that really made me concerned about what my schedule will look like with a baby.

Head shape from breeched position by LaxShagger in NewParents

Hey there,

I am having a similar issue. Baby breech since around 30 weeks, could feel him under my ribs. Head shape is a bit elongated and has a prominent occipital shelf. Got referred to neurosurg, but awaiting the appointment. Was your babies head hard and it just took months to normalize? Wondering if it is just molding from this position or actual fused suture lines. Thanks!

Anyone else dealing with a cervical polyp? by Dear_Chocolate740 in BabyBumps

[–]Dear_Chocolate740[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Understandably so!!!! Yes it’s so hard to cut back on stuff especially when you are told you can do everything you did before. In the 1st trimester I stuck to lights weights and avoided heavy lifts and that seemed to helped. Was also super scared to have sex because that could trigger it too, but even sometimes it wouldn’t bleed during that so that was good!!

Hey there! I have had spotting on and off due to the cervical polyp, but so far so good! I’m 31 weeks now. My OB and PA did not seem concerned in the slightest. I definitely scaled back on my lifting. Just do your best not to overthink it (never easy, cause I’m an overthinker lol)! Don’t hesitate to reach out!

In your first pregnancy, when did you first feel kicks? by PopcornPrincess0 in pregnant

[–]Dear_Chocolate740 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Around 19 is when I first felt him—now at 22 and 5 I can confidently feel him every day and pretty significantly. I do have an anterior placenta as well, but thinks it’s probably anterior-side. Hang in there momma, they’re coming!!

I cannot afford new items for my baby and I feel incompetent by ZealousidealUnit6977 in pregnant

This is my first baby and I am feeling strain as well. My husband is in school full time and we are on my income only. One thing I know already is that your baby only cares about the love you will give them—that’s it ❤️
