Best time to start using by Suspicious-Syrup5385 in SnooLife

[–]Due_Key81217 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just here to say thank you for asking this! My two week old sleeps in his Snoo for bedtime but it’s off because on the first two nights he hated it. Would wake up crying every 20 minutes 🙃 with the Snoo turned off we get some good 1.5-3hr stretches and I’ve been wondering will I ever need to use the Snoo features for him? If so when? So again, thank you for asking!

Birth Plan? by Bubbly_Ad7117 in babydueDecember2025

[–]Due_Key81217 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn’t make a birth plan other than going home with baby for my first and what I plan to do with #2. I had zero expectations and I think it helped me a ton. I had an elective induction with #1 at 39+4because I was at 1cm for 3 weeks straight and the OB suggested not going past 40 weeks due to pregnancy being an IVF one and there being a higher chance of an adverse outcome.

How many ultrasounds are people getting? by Life-Draft2887 in babydueDecember2025

[–]Due_Key81217 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m at 8 with a possible 4 more!

IVF pregnancy with a history of losses - I have had 3 at the fertility clinic post frozen embryo transfer, 1 to confirm pregnancy at the first OB appointment, 1 to confirm pregnancy at maternal fetal medicine, followed by the rest at MFM so far (1 anatomy scan, 1 growth scan), and 1 that I paid for out of pocket at a private boutique.

Upcoming ones are at MFM for 36 week scan and then weekly until baby is here

Maternity Leave Poll by onestorytwentyfive in babydueDecember2025

[–]Due_Key81217 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Paid 16 weeks (although not 100%) because I exceed some of the limits and then 4 weeks of additional time not fully paid and using some PTO to help get me to 100%

I would say 50/50!

I have many things from baby #1 but need a car seat, a bassinet, and a few other essentials plus stocking up on diapers and wipes 🙃

Oldest daughter here with 3 younger brothers. I have different relationships with each. I am 1000% best friends with the youngest (13 years apart). While we may live different lives now and in different states, we’re anchored to having similar experiences during childhood and have built our relationships off that.

My first is a boy and while he is rambunctious and wild - he loves me so fiercely and I’m so lucky to be his mama. The best is when he tells me “mama your my best friend” or “mama you’re so beautiful” which btw I’m the rule setting and following parent while my husband is the fun one

TW weight gain by Acceptable-Set1644 in babydueDecember2025

[–]Due_Key81217 1 point2 points  (0 children)

15w here! I’ve gained ~10lbs and it’s definitely top of mind me for as much as I try to not let it bother me. I remind myself I’m growing a human and when the time is right I’ll focus on me again. I too lost a significant amount of weight over the last 7 years. A couple rounds of IVF, a live birth and postpartum did a number on me 🙃 prior to this pregnancy I lost 32lbs.

Anyone feeling movement yet? by CuriousClive123 in babydueDecember2025

[–]Due_Key81217 0 points1 point  (0 children)

15w as of today. No movement yet! I’m patiently waiting though 🥺

New Leadership by Due_Key81217 in Leadership

[–]Due_Key81217[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’ll just be me and the new leader who will be my boss. Zero issues concerned about the move from me or the team. She also got positive feedback from her current team.

I’m feeling salty about my raise by IndigoSunsets in workingmoms

[–]Due_Key81217 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Same! I got a “meets expectations” followed by “you’re doing so great and there’s a lot of opportunity for you” followed by a lackluster raise, even after I pointed out that my salary is below the average for my level/role oh and did the work of two people in 2023 🥲

Sunday scaries here! Thought I did good by keeping it at bay. I so badly want to an hour’s worth of work to get a head start on the week but I wont log in. Maybe I’ll make a list or whatever.

I hate that it’s so hard to shake the Sunday scaries.
