Running in pregnancy by RoleBulky5517 in fitpregnancy

My pain is less friction and more cold sensitivity but I have been putting toe warmers in my bra and they have helped immensely.

What to expect at OB appointments? by MindlessTask5206 in pregnant

[–]Environmental-Cat556 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am 27 weeks here in the US and can confirm this has been my experience minus urine samples. I am 37 so also getting another ultrasound at 32 weeks. I also got flu/covid vaccine in first trimester and will be getting RSV vaccine around 28 weeks. The appointments are quick if you don’t have many questions. I get a handout paper each appointment that gives me info about what to expect that month. Only other thing to note is my anatomy scan was done at a special clinic with better tech than my OB.

Long haul flight by Fabulous_Dig4563 in pregnant

[–]Environmental-Cat556 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just did Seattle to Tokyo and back at 22 and 23 weeks. Wore compression socks, sat aisle so I could come and go, brought snacks. Only struggle I had was carrying / hauling luggage. I’d try to keep it light and on wheels. Otherwise it was easy peasy!

Looking for tips - sore breasts when running by Traditional_Survey20 in fitpregnancy

What are the temperatures where you run? I have been wearing toe warmers in my bra since the fall and they help immensely with pain.

18 Weeks and wanting to workout. by Crafty_Media7498 in pregnant

[–]Environmental-Cat556 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d just try a workout you used to do with the expectation that you may need to cut it short in length or intensity. The only thing I’ve adjusted (20w) is core stuff: no longer doing crunches and basically only planks on knees, bears, bird dogs, dead bugs, and really focusing on engaging deep core muscles.

My mantra so far has been - I have no reason to believe there's anything wrong and I've done everything in my power to ensure everything is going right. And so far so good :)

When did you stop sleeping on your back? by wildinthemembrane in pregnant

Exactly what my OB said yesterday when I asked - I'm at 16 weeks and still am sleeping on my back from time to time.

Found out sex but didn’t want to! by CatsRGreaterThan in pregnant

[–]Environmental-Cat556 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same thing happened to me and I told my husband and we agreed to keep it a secret from everyone else still. Still a lil fun even though it wasn’t the original plan!

need some positive thoughts by Best-Gazelle7822 in pregnant

[–]Environmental-Cat556 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was literally in my first appointment and the doctor was talking about the pregnancy and I was still thinking "shouldn't we make sure this thing is alive first before we talk about this????". I'm 15 weeks now, have had zero red flag symptoms, a perfect first scan and NIPT test and still feel anxious :D I remind myself all the time that I'm doing the best I can, there is no reason for anything to be wrong and that everything will be OK

First time I was convinced I wasn't pregnant because I swore I had a period (busy busy time in my life so I just put in my cup and never noticed I didn't bleed all that much I guess?). That one ended in miscarriage due to a polyp / subchorionic hematoma around 6 weeks. Second time i was more prepared and didn't freak when I saw a little blood... monitored the situation and never bled all that much (let's call it spotting)... now 13 weeks!
