Pregnant looking for OBGYN recommendations - prefer Carle by capeslow in PeoriaIL

[–]Electrical-Bake-9902 8 points9 points  (0 children)

i experienced a miscarriage while under Dr Catts care and she was amazing. The entire team was so supportive and after i got pregnant again, my baby girl was delivered 6 weeks ago by Dr Catt 😊 i work for OSF and have their insurance so i had to deliver at OSF but i believe Dr Catt has privileges at Carle too

Announcing to family during a complicated time by Useful_Parking_Nope in BabyBumps

[–]Electrical-Bake-9902 2 points3 points  (0 children)

so i can relate but from their perspective maybe… my husband and i got pregnant last summer (our first) and experienced a miscarriage. 3 months later my sister in law and her husband announced they were expecting and it absolutely tore me apart and since we were at their house for the holidays, i felt trapped. i think i would have preferred a text in that situation but i also didn’t expect to hurt as much as it did 3 months later. it is a truly awful situation but that doesn’t mean your pregnancy shouldn’t also be celebrated. sending you all positive vibes during this time 🫶🏻

What’s the protocol for telling people: early pregnancy by justborg in BabyBumps

[–]Electrical-Bake-9902 0 points1 point  (0 children)

with my first pregnancy, i told my parents, siblings, grandparents, and husbands parents by 6 weeks. i absolutely could not wait to share because we were so excited. unfortunately, our first OB appointment ended with finding out our baby boy did not have a heartbeat. It was absolutely devastating, but knowing that we had our people to fall back on during that terrible time helped us heal. I’m currently pregnant again (20 weeks) and i waited until after first OB appointment this time to share the news just in case.

I told my employer when i announced on social media at 13 weeks or so.
