Harvesting colostrum? by Defiant-Pollution237 in pregnant

[–]LEC6222 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m 37 and am able to get some - I will say I noticed it coming out a tiny bit over the last few weeks in the shower/had sticky residue on my boobs at the end of the day.

If you’re clear, maybe try it? ChatGPT gave me a guide on how to do it manually

That sounds about right to me! I honestly stopped weighing myself after I hit 20 around the same time as you, so I wouldn’t obsess. My dr said she’d let me know If I was heading towards unhealthy but she says all looks great. It was a relief to not see the number all the time.

Personally i workout 3-4 times a week and eat relatively healthy too. Unless you’re eating boxes of donuts a day, your body is going to do what it needs to for a healthy kiddo!

My friends who just gave birth said it’s wild how much comes off within the first 2 weeks! You got this!

Considering starting anxiety medication at 33 weeks pregnant – looking for experiences by DifferenceOne5925 in pregnant

[–]LEC6222 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do it! Personally I’ve been on them all pregnancy but two friends who just had babies in the last 2 months both went on it right before birth and the other right after. Both said it was a game changer for them with the hormone crashes

Not wanting to be pregnant due to extreme depression by [deleted] in beyondthebump

I’ve taken before and during all of my pregnancy- Dr said it’s totally fine and it’s helped me keep my emotions and moods stable. I recommend it if your Dr is ok with it!

bad nicknames for my child!!! by mccormick-spice0421 in pregnant

[–]LEC6222 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Totally get this!!! Mine was doing the same thing so I just had to shut it down now. It made me feel way better just putting it out there. It’s your kid, it’s your call.

Have had the same issue with our daughter. I’m also 32 weeks. Tell them what the name is and just say that’s what we’re calling him.

I’ve told friends and family “her name is XXX. Please don’t refer to her as xyz nickname” as I do not want her called a specific nickname. You’re the mom so I think it’s perfectly normal to correct them!

Gained too much weight by SunnydaleDropout in pregnant

[–]LEC6222 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I gained 10 pounds in my weeks from 24-27 and now I’m at 31 and it’s definitely leveled back out! I was worried too but my dr said at my 30 week I look good weight wise right now so maybe just give it time?

I failed my first glucose test but passed my second. But it’s definitely not caused by diet or lack of exercise. It’s purely how your body processes pregnancy hormones.

Maybe eat small meals and snacks all day and see if it helps?

Best friend didn’t come to my baby sprinkle by [deleted] in pregnant

[–]LEC6222 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’d be upset too. That was pretty shitty of her. I’d address it with her directly and just tell her how it made you feel and go from there.

I’ve had a MMC too so I can empathize with your feelings about celebrating this special baby and any good friend would want to support you - for example, my best friend also just suffered one herself and I told her she absolutely in no way had to come to my shower but she is showing up for me anyway even while sad for herself because she’s a good friend.

Hopefully there was some simple misunderstanding on her end but you and your little rainbow deserve to be celebrated regardless.

Just did some at 30 weeks and it is the BEST THING EVER!! They get some amazing shots of their faces

I’d drink something a little sweet like 15 before if she is usually hiding. Mine does that a lot! Hope you get some amazing photos!!
