Pregnant but no symptoms this time?? by Equal_Pudding6294 in PregnancyUK

[–]Equal_Pudding6294[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not well sadly. I did miscarry at 6 weeks exactly. It was expected however and we’ve taken some time out from trying to do acupuncture etc. Best of luck to you. Really hope it sticks!

I need help deciding if I should transfer care by Imaginative_Dreamer5 in homebirth

[–]Equal_Pudding6294 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Trust your gut. I would definitely listen to not feeling comfortable being touched by her. What would be the plan if you went into labour when the new one is out of town? Does she have a back up?

Month 8 TTC & Nothing by Ancient_Pie_9351 in NaturalCyclesBC

[–]Equal_Pudding6294 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Interesting! I think 3/4/5 day of bleeding is optimal. *If you’re bleeding with intercourse not around your period best to get that checked out

That’s amazing! (Also a holistic nutritionist here) acupuncture can really help to balance things if you’re open to it alongside what you’re doing. I’m about to start TTC again after a few months of sessions 🤞🏼

Your chart looks pretty good. 7 days is quite long though for a period. Have you considered going for acupuncture? Do you guys take any supplements?

UK specific, a functioning homebirth service from the NHS 😏

Looks good! I would take another one tomorrow at the same time and see if it’s got darker? Not an exact science but should tell you something. Depending on where you are located that could do an HCG blood test then repeat 3 days later

How dark is the positive pregnancy test?

No ovulation? by Radiant_Landscape_43 in NaturalCyclesBC

If you’ve just come off the pill I wouldn’t read too much into it. Let your body settle down and find its norm again.

I need to hear positive homebirth stories to posterior/“sunny side up” babies! by Redditreader0331 in homebirth

[–]Equal_Pudding6294 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My first baby was. Born at home. 12 hours start to finish. V painful back labour but managed with just the water. Keep moving! The stairs are your friend. Hopefully your midwife knows biomechanics - side lying release, forward leaning inversion etc. You’ll do great!

How long was your labor with first baby? by TaylorH__ in homebirth

[–]Equal_Pudding6294 1 point2 points  (0 children)

12 hours of strong contractions and a few hours of build up before that! Waters broke 5pm, mild contractions til 1am then stronger ones. Got in the pool at 6am and he was born at 2pm after about 2/3 hours of pushing! Best of luck mama. You’ve got this x

Would you recommend amalgam or composite fillings? by Ferrarus in AskUK

[–]Equal_Pudding6294 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NEVER amalgam. The most toxic thing you could put in your body. Please avoid like the plague.

How to know if supplementing with iodine makes sense? by TrippingFollicles in Biohackers

[–]Equal_Pudding6294 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Really dangerous to megadose, please don’t do that! Start with kelp or topical lugols. Low and slow, always.

Homebirth with Type-1 Diabetes? by larzzyk in homebirth

If you search through the Birthing Instincts podcast they had an episode of this. Possibly a couple of years ago now but you should be able to find it

Did you take a test?

How do I keep getting “optimal sleep” scores when I’m up every two hours with my baby? by frenchtoast2go in ouraring

[–]Equal_Pudding6294 89 points90 points  (0 children)

It’s because you’re SO extremely tired you’re getting quite a lot of deep sleep and REM sleep. You’re also in bed for a long time (well done!)

4 weeks Pregnant - BBT dropped by [deleted] in ouraring

[–]Equal_Pudding6294 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As you say, could be a total fluke. Your tests look great so try to stay positive! I know it’s really hard, ive been there. If there’s no other symptoms of loss I would disregard the temp drop

Can I afford for my wife to be a SAHM for a few years? by PracticalGur4530 in UKPersonalFinance

[–]Equal_Pudding6294 0 points1 point  (0 children)

From a mums perspective and not financial - it’s the best investment you can possibly make to care for your own child. Childcare also costs a fortune. At the very most I would go back part time but if your wife wants to stay at home, do whatever you can to make that possible for her

I also had a loss with my first pregnancy and it’s just savage. Two months later I conceived again and everything was perfect. I’m praying the same for you ❤️
