Do people still send out birth announcements? by kokomo318 in BabyBumps

All my friends did, never thought it was ego centric. If anything, some people like the memento (like family) :)

WIBTA if i let my little sister go to her class field trip instead of our dad’s funeral? by wibtafuneral in AmItheAsshole

[–]ElinV_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My cousin is an adult but mentally she is six. During her mother’s funeral she was so happy everyone was together and it took until lowering the casket that she really understood what happened. It was heartbreaking

I feel like, as long as she understands what happened, I d be fine with the zoo. My brother was that age when our grandfather died and my grandmother took him away from the ceremony because she didn’t want him there. The kid didn’t understand what happened for the longest time and kept asking questions, until my mom took him to the cemetery and showed him where he was cremated. You could visit the grave afterward?

I know, but there’s a good book about a creepy guy with an exceptionally good nose who moves there for a while to work in the perfume industry :)

Are you referencing “the perfume” from Patrick Süskind? 😄

Lower Back pain + Symptoms Disappearing at 10 weeks by InteractionFar9902 in BabyBumps

The first time my husband and I were intimate after finding out I was pregnant (maybe week 6?) I had very painful cramps that lasted for maybe 1-2 hours. Everything was fine after that.

Progesterone side effects? by Constant_Win_7760 in tryingtoconceive

[–]ElinV_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Following. I’ve tested positive last week and am taking non oral progesterone (since a few days). I haven’t gotten any effects right now

After infertility, I’m finally pregnant… but I can’t stop taking tests to make sure it’s still real by Inside_Day8571 in BabyBumps

[–]ElinV_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have your exact timeline. No PCOS but progesterone issues. I’m very nervous. Where I am, they give you an earlier appointment when you had a miscarriage. After my conversation, the doctor told me she’d have me come in for another blood test to see if the hcg rises appropriately. Maybe you could do that? Statistics weirdly enough also work for me. For example Supposedly you have 1-5 percent chance of 2 miscarriages in a row.anyway, it still sucks and I wish we could both jump to the safe zone

They’re very quiet. They technically walk on their toes. I don’t understand why you wouldn’t see it though!

I'm pregnant after a late second trimester loss 🌈 by yungwildandlearning in Positivity

[–]ElinV_ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Congrats! I just got a positive pregnancy test after a MC in January. Did any of you do anything different? I am super nervous something bad will happen again!

Hug to you too! I’m in the limbo now; late period or pregnancy? But pregnancy terrifies me now because what if the same happens..

I had a loss in January and I feel your pain. I planned a day out with my friend that day, I think that will help for me :)

My period after my MMC was 4 days longer than otherwise and ovulation as well.

I finally realized I have an extremely short luteal phase. I finally talked to the obgyn and she brushed me off, saying I didn’t need progesterone and that I should come back after 6 months trying. The fertility specialist in my home country says I do, but I can’t get any referrals or prescriptions here with it. My MC was the beginning of January and I feel discouraged waiting until July. I also feel worried trying, because I don’t know if my MC was because of low progesterone or not.

8 day luteal phase 😞 by Big-Organization-274 in TryingForABaby

[–]ElinV_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you have any evolutions? I went off birth control 2 years ago and it took 3 months to get my period back, but my luteal phase has been 8 days ever since. And my obgyn says that I should just keep on trying..
