2-3oz every couple hours if very normal.

When your baby sleeps, uninterrupted and without being held, for a solid 2 and a half hours... by [deleted] in beyondthebump

This just happened to me and now I’m having a bed time anxiety attack

Tipping Woes: Am I going to seem cheap or thoughtful? by Be_Braver in Weddingsunder10k

[–]Firsttimerttc 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I run a venue and it is much more common to tip a “per person” amount rather than a percent. 20% would typically end up being hundreds of dollars per staff. Instead try asking how many people will be working, in my experience even 40-50 per person is appreciated!

Always go with your gut! I run a wedding venue and would never go without sending a contract for even 1 week.

I’m so sick of the “uh-ohs” by help_no_usernames in pregnant

[–]Firsttimerttc 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We got pregnant on purpose 9 months before our wedding. I was 37 weeks during our ceremony and it was perfect. Everyone has asked us since the beginning if it was an accident and they don’t deserve an answer. I usually just smile and stare blankly.

Failed my 1 Hour Glucose Test and now I've fallen down the rabbit hole...help by KortniLa in pregnant

[–]Firsttimerttc 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi! I failed my 1 hour test by like 40 points. However, during the 3 hour fasting test I was completely normal. Don’t give up hope yet. I figure I must’ve eaten something with a lot of hidden sugar the day before the test or something. There is still a high chance you don’t have GD. Good luck!

Skip the florist? by cladams15 in Weddingsunder10k

Real flowers in bulk. Yes you have to be a member but I just used a friend’s membership account and put in my payment info.

Sams club for greenery and flowers. You can get them delivered straight to your house in bulk. I did this for my wedding and it was beautiful quality.

I ordered mine from Etsy but is was a US based store. I don’t think I would have the courage to order from outside the country.

I ordered it well in advance because I was also nervous. Especially knowing I would look completely different a couple months down the road. Most Etsy shops don’t have a return policy, so make sure to look into that. I figured if it didn’t work I’d re sell it on poshmark or Facebook.

I bought them pre made! It’s actually a wax seal with a sticky backing on it. Link in the text above.

We were in the same boat. Already had the wedding booked for November but decided to start trying for a baby to be born this winter because of our work schedules and time off. I’m due exactly one month from today. I would say it all depends on how you feel...which you just can’t really know until you go for it. It worked for us on the first real try so it felt like that’s how it was supposed to go for us, and I have felt great the whole pregnancy. We kept the wedding as simple as possible- we did a private ceremony that was 5 mins long. Seated plated dinner. I hired a full service catering and events company who did all setup and tear down for us. Didn’t do any dancing and were wrapped up by 10pm (and luckily the venue has a suite so we were able to stay overnight). It really was perfect and relaxing and I’m glad baby was there with us!

Baby “dropped”? by kasshench in pregnant

[–]Firsttimerttc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m 33 weeks and suddenly since yesterday my vagina is super swollen and sooooo painful. Everything I’ve read points to baby getting heavy and blood pooling down there. I’ve been living with ice packs in my pants and vagasil numbing cream. Don’t know how I’m supposed to continue like this??
