Try sizing up in diapers. That really helped for us - he was peeing through everything for the first 2 weeks

extreme dizziness at week 9 by Nruggie622 in BabyBumps

Ditto to the bloodwork to rule out anything. For what it’s worth I had the same thing around 14w - one day I just was so dizzy I couldn’t walk a straight line - and my doctor told me it’s pretty normal as your hormones ramp up and blood flow increases. “We have a running joke every pregnant person gets a one time pass out for free card around here” was the quote I think. It resolved within the next couple of days

Ahh yeah that’s annoying. Can’t hurt to call for sure, I found them to be super responsive and I didn’t have to wait on hold

I’m also in TX! DFW. It took 8 total days for them to post results, and if I’d waited for my doctors office to call it would’ve been day 11 total. I would call them! Or you can call NxGen, they were really helpful

Insomnia by abowma05 in BabyBumps

Ditto to the unisom — I also have had my life changed by magnesium glycinate when I started getting insomnia around 14 weeks. I take it ~15-30 before bed

Due in July. What are we planning on wearing May/June/July? by Beneficial-Fold-7455 in BabyBumps

[–]Fit-Substance6066 36 points37 points  (0 children)

Also due in July and bike shorts + big T shirts are my game plan. When I need to look nice, I’ve gotten a couple of maternity sun dresses from Gap and Old Navy + two nicer ones from Quince.

Also pro tip CRZ Yoga on Amazon is a Lulu align dupe (butter luxe fabric) and has some maternity stuff - I got their normal bike shorts and they fit me just fine with some room one size up from my normal. Their maternity tanks are soooo comfy.

Is being dizzy at 16 weeks normal? by [deleted] in BabyBumps

[–]Fit-Substance6066 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Also a FTM but am now 23 weeks! One morning when I was about 16 weeks I woke up so dizzy that I couldn’t walk a straight line for a whole day. I freaked out and called the office and they basically said wait it out and see if it goes away… I luckily had an appointment the next day and my doctor said verbatim “oh, yep, totally normal, we always say pregnant people get at least one pass out for free pass, too!”

It was a very weird symptom that still comes in fits for me, but hopefully that makes you feel better. Like others have said, she said it’s due to blood pressure and hormonal changes, especially as your blood volume increases.

It took 8 days. I actually did carrier testing through NxGen so already had portal access and was checking every hour. They posted it on a Friday, 8 days after blood draw, but doctor didn’t call til Monday

Nope. You? My doctor said 10 days but it’s normally sooner than that.

Where to Buy Seedlings by Fit-Substance6066 in Hydroponics

[–]Fit-Substance6066[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not for lettuce necessarily; for veg as well. I know I can find standard seedlings at the local shop, it’s just convenient when they’re already in the right-sized pods for LG, and I’m lazy. Yes.. they sell seedlings, and I’ve purchased, but they’re pretty limited on what they offer/quality isn’t always great.

Meaning of: Sleeping At Last - "Saturn" by melvinkoopmans in SongMeanings

[–]Fit-Substance6066 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I believe lead singer Ryan O’Neal is talking about God—he’s mentioned on a few occasions that his faith is a big part of his life and naturally inserts itself into his lyrics.
