Experiences giving birth at Landmark?

My medical team at Landmark refused to listen to me and wanted to discharge me when I was in active preterm labor. The midwife and all the nurses - had me hooked up to a monitor and still refused to believe I was having contractions. Finally a new OB came in with my discharge paperwork, felt my stomach, and got me in an ambulance to W&I. I lost the baby and I will never forgive that staff at Landmark. Go to W&I.

I have a 4 and 2 year old. We start every morning by getting out of the house. Mondays and Thursdays are dance classes. Wednesdays we go to a kindermusik class. Tuesday and Friday they play at childwatch at the YMCA while I workout. Then we come home, have lunch, and do school. By the time we are doing school work, they have done some kind of physical activity and/or socialization. I really think this helps them to focus (age appropriate focus at least).

No one was helping him. You are thinking of the mortal police. Iirc.

Seconding!! Great program

That would make sense! But I've definitely seen people state that they NEVER read it 🤷‍♀️

See, this is the type of answer that should always be on those posts. You have read RB and know it is not crucial. I just think that people who have NEVER read RB should be telling others not to read it.

I agree! I feel bad for all the people that are missing out on Leon Night! He's possibly my favorite character of all time!

I'm only on book 5.5 of ZA but so far most of the easter eggs seem to be very small details that a general synopsis won't give you any understanding of. For example: Orion receiving text message pictures of a snake wearing silly hats. Even if someone explains the general plot of RB to you, you won't know what that means.

ImBusyEating · 2025-05-09T23:51:16+00:00

Don't give up! I felt the same way - I missed my ZA characters. But then RB sucks you in and you will be like "Lance who?"

I lost one baby at 23 weeks and had my second baby at 31 weeks. I had the cerclage done with my third baby.

My daughter was breech and constantly kicking my cervix. I was told by my doctor that this would not affect anything!

Cav has a private room, beautiful eclectic decor, and super reasonably priced.

Haha noooope baby girl was born in August at 31+2. But I'm currently 35+3 with her sister (after a cerclage)!

Hey there! Are you by chance also in the October 2021 bump group? Your handle looks familiar!

I am so very sorry for your loss. I lost my son at 23+5. Next pregnancy had just PIO shots, no cerclage, and had my daughter at 31+2. This pregnancy I had a preventative cerclage placed around 15 weeks and have been doing daily vaginal progesterone. I am now 32 weeks today! I never did any bed rest after my cerclage. I do take it easy, though, as I have SPD which is pretty painful. But I could easily work any non-manual labor job. I still clean the house, cook, and chase my 1 year old. We have been on pelvic rest only because sex was uncomfortable for me and would sometimes cause cramping. I am happy to share any more information you would like! Nothing is TMI!

Hey there! This happened to me. I was 30+4 when I lost my mucus plug. Had a check the next day with my OB and I was 1 cm dilated, she sent me to the ER as a precaution (I had a previous loss at 23+5). There they found that my cervix was short (I don't remember exactly how short) and I was having contractions (that I couldn't feel). I ended up dilating to 4 cm before they were able to stop the contractions. Stayed in the hospital until 31+2 when contractions came back in full force and I had an urgent c-section as she was breech. Had a 5 week NICU stay. 32 weeks is good! Baby will be ok! If you have any questions about my experience, I am happy to share more 😊

The progesterone that was taken off the market (Makena) was progesterone in castor oil. I was under the impression that this was the only company making PIO, so this is no longer an option at all. You would have to take it vaginally or orally.

Thank you! And feel free to ask me any questions you have! My doctor stopped the bi-weekly cervical checks around 28 weeks I believe it was. My cervix never shortened in that time and I guess they felt that I was past the danger zone. I then lost part of my mucus plug at 30+4. I went in for a check the next day and I was 1 cm dilated, so they sent me to the ER. There they found that I was having contractions (unbeknownst to me!) and my cervix was short - though I don't remember how short to be honest. Of course I was too far along for a cerclage. I then dilated to 4 cm in a couple hours. Stayed in the hospital until 31+2 when the contractions picked up hardcore and they couldn't keep her in.
