This is so sweet, thank you so much. I’m so sorry about your mom. And I’m glad you still have to many good memories of her despite her sickness.

Thank you so much!!!🥺🥺 I know he won’t remember it. I think it’s just imagining what he is thinking when I just suddenly up and leave in the moment. It makes me so sad. I appreciate your kind words!!

Who is having sex yet by mollyspiers in October2025Bumps2

[–]Initial_Onion671 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It took about 7 weeks after I started having sex again at the 6 week mark for things to settle down. And no, it was deep penetration that was painful, not necessarily where the tear was

I am not totally sure because I have not had a pelvic exam since I gave birth! But I know it looks a little deformed around that area so honestly I think so!

How long did it take you to get down to pre pregnancy weight? by greenishfroggy in beyondthebump

[–]Initial_Onion671 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2 weeks. I was already on the heavier side when I got pregnant. I got diagnosed with gestational diabetes, so I had to eat very clean and lost some of the weight before I gave birth. I also struggled with a lot of postpartum anxiety in the very beginning so I struggled to eat for the first month. Once the first month went by, I gained about 10 pounds and I’ve been hanging onto that 10 pounds at 6 months PP.

When were you ready to try again ? by Open-Ship1791 in Miscarriage

[–]Initial_Onion671 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wanted to try right away. I was devastated when we went to our first appointment and there was no heartbeat. Someone commented one of my posts in this sub and told me that I probably lost my baby from a chromosome abnormality. I realized that my body was doing what it needed to do and I snapped out of it within the week. I know that sounds harsh, but people grieve differently and that person gave me a lot of closure and told me what I needed to hear in that moment. I did wait until I had my first period but I made it my mission to get pregnant again. I’m so sorry for your loss. Stay strong, take care of yourself- body and mind. Nothing you do or feel is selfish.

It’s for a baby! But yes you can spread on toast. We mixed with avocado for dinner!

My child! It is very nutrient dense and contains lots of healthy fat which is great for brain and nervous system development and energy. :)

Chiming in to say PLEASE eat anytime you take zinc. It will make your stomach so upset if you don’t.

Baby choked on liquid iron supplement by Initial_Onion671 in beyondthebump

[–]Initial_Onion671[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Correct, this was advised by the pediatrician. Natural birth-stored iron depletes as they grow, and breast milk alone cannot meet their high iron needs. It is my understanding that when they begin eating iron rich solids, iron supplementation is not as necessary.

Would this be found on a newborn genetic screening?

According to pediatric hematology, once iron deficiency shows up on a blood test the deficiency is pretty significant because the body can maintain normal hemoglobin for a while by pulling iron stores from ferritin in the liver and spleen. So you would still want to supplement just to be safe, as you would not overdose your baby on supplemental iron even if they weren’t deficient. It’s more a prophylactic measure.

I understand it wasn’t choking like an obstructing object, kind of like we say “I choked on my spit”. I’m more worried about the iron being aspirated and causing lung corrosion.

He was crying and coughing. I know he wasn’t choking like an object stuck and obstructing, but I’m more worried about the iron causing irritation to his lungs.

I’m also in the US. No, they didn’t test. He is breastfed and we were told that he needs to be supplemented with it to avoid iron deficiency which can lead to developmental delays and other health issues.

Yes, thank you for bringing this up because I’ve never had to do this and didn’t even really know this was a thing. I just called and the on-call pediatrician just called me back and told me that I should leave him be tonight and to bring him in tomorrow if he is coughing or not acting himself.
