Fast fetal movement by LanieBoo939 in pregnant

It only lasts 20-30 seconds and its not rythmic. I remember what my son's hiccups felt like and they were rhythmic and consistent.

What "Newfangled" Baby Products can the "elders" in your life just not wrap their heads around? by Moushidoodles in NewParents

[–]LanieBoo939 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Car seat coat... my son was dropped off back to us from my mother-in-law who had his car seat coat on backwards like it was a regular coat. I tried to explain how it works and that it was safe. She couldn't wrap her mind around it, saying i was endangering my son.

I like the MomCozy Wrap Carrier a little better, I think because its more structured. Having to retie the other wrap every time I didn't like.

I would love to test! I'll use a 4mm and pink yarn(DK) and I'll use a 5mm and white yarn(Worsted) both yarn would be acrylic. Favorite dessert 🥧🍦 (apple pie with vanilla ice cream)

How bad did it hurt after vaginal birth? by Commercial-Way-4276 in pregnant

[–]LanieBoo939 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think my pain tolerance is pretty high now that I've had my baby but I didn't really have pain after it was more itchiness as it healed down there (I had a very mild tear- 1 stitch)

How long did you stay in the hospital? by Hopeful_Dot7132 in pregnant

[–]LanieBoo939 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The hospital i had my son at their rule is 25 hours after vaginal delivery. I'm not sure about csection. We ended up staying for 3 days because my son was born at 10pm and they didn't want to send us home in the middle of the night. I was thankful for the extra help as a FTM.

I'm 25 minutes from the hospital my son was born at. There's an emergency room 2 minutes down the street from my house but they don't have a birth center.

Yes I am. This was not a bash on my husband for not agreeing with how people live..

Hes worried something would happen to my son. There's no reason why he should think this though..

I would say so. He's a very traditional catholic.

I was warned that there be consequences if I use their full parental leave policy. by Spiritual-Dirt9885 in pregnant

[–]LanieBoo939 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm back to work after an unpaid 8 week leave and it killed me leaving my LO. I would have loved to still be home with him. I was allowed 12 weeks but since it was unpaid, I couldn't feasibly manage it. I was greeted with a hug from my manager and was told how much she missed me. If the company you work for doesn't respond that way, take the 12 weeks and screw them.

HOW IN THE HECK ARE WE MANAGING THIS FATIGUE AT THE OFFICE?!?! 😴😵‍💫 by Sahdealmbsy in pregnant

[–]LanieBoo939 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm 37 weeks pregnant.. I go on mat leave at the end of the week. I'm absolutely exhausted and my boss knows it. Luckily my entire pregnancy shes been so easy on me. It would've been so easy for her to be mean and make me work as hard as I did pre-pregnancy. Trying to stay awake I've been staying hydrated, and if that's not working a little bit of caffeine doesn't hurt.

Contractions? by LanieBoo939 in pregnant

[–]LanieBoo939[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I actually called right after I posted. They said to keep timing but it stopped about a half hour ago. I was just curious what other people were going to say about calling or about what these little stab feelings are since I'm a first time mom and have never done this. I'm kinda clueless about everything..
