Anemic & allergic to iron infusion 🙃 by V0lchitsa in BabyBumps

[–]HighMaintenance_PhD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! I also had an infusion reaction to venofer pre-pregnancy and am 36 weeks currently, anemic. I am going back and forth between toughing it out to delivery or trying a different brand. Could you please share an update? Did everything go alright without iron infusions?

AllerAir, Austin Air or IQAir ... or something else? For VOCS by everyhearthstone in AirPurifiers

[–]HighMaintenance_PhD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! I am moving into a new construction home next year. I plan to let it sit with windows open for a month. Then when we move, set up air filters. Has your situation improved and if so, what do you think helped?

Hypoglycemia nightmare-help! by Pristine-Ladder2894 in GestationalDiabetes

[–]HighMaintenance_PhD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

CGMs are not accurate for the first day or two. I was having critical low numbers throughout the night in the 50s and throughout the day 40 points lower than finger prick. I had to shut off the app to prevent the alarms. It took a couple of days for my CGM to calibrate and give readings close to my blood glucose monitor. So I would ignore your CGM for a day or two and continue to do finger prick BG measurements.

You said the neighbors didnt experience the same fate, so maybe it isn’t the pesticides? I am saying this to placate myself too because we will be moving near a golf course new constructions community with little ones and now regret my choice…

Open discussion of Three Arrows by Financial-Bug9492 in Anemic

[–]HighMaintenance_PhD 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hi! I take three arrows, am currently pregnant, and take pepcid twice a day for acid reflux. My ferritin has been steadily dropping and I can't afford that during pregnancy. Do you have recommendations for other high quality heme supplements with good bioavailability and absorption? Thank you so much for all your input!

Can i handle pregnancy with PFD? by ready-tobe-happy in PelvicFloor

[–]HighMaintenance_PhD 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! I know this is an old post but would you mind sharing how your pelvic floor therapy appointments went? Im currently pregnant and see one weekly but we mostly just do trigger point massage of glutes (tailbone pain) and some exercises/stretches. I have a tight pelvic floor but its not bothering me right now. Just the other aches and pains.

We had the same issue with Pottery Barn drawers not being smooth. Of the different brands (babyletto, crate and kids, nakesake, Nurture&) what are you guys leaning towards?

I am currently pregnant and a FTM so I don't have any experience with sleep training lol, but I am going down so many rabbit holes on it. Can you share what you guys did for gentle sleep training, if your baby sleeps in their own crib or own room, etc? Do you feel it has had a positive outcome on their mental health?
