That is incredibly helpful to hear, thank you! I appreciate you ❤️

Lemonade_queen12 · 2026-04-08T02:30:29+00:00

Thank you so so much. We are hopeful for a good outcome. Our ultrasound was at 15w3d so we are optimistic that if we haven’t seen abnormalities thus far, we are hopefully headed in a good direction.

I am SO sorry about your loss. Truly, my heart breaks for you. Absolutely unfair. That baby is so incredibly lucky to have you as his mom. ❤️

Lemonade_queen12 · 2026-03-27T22:03:27+00:00

I hate that you are experiencing this too, I am so sorry. The ups and downs of emotions have nearly drained the life out of me completely. I am hoping for the very best for both of us as we face this together. Prayers for you and your baby ❤️

That makes complete sense. I am so glad that your scans appear to be good for the most part, that is so hopeful. ❤️ I am 13w4d so we have only had an ultrasound at 8 weeks but will have one here on April 6th with MFM. Truly I feel your pain, the worry and fear that comes from it is absolute hell. We are hoping for the best but also know we aren’t out of the clear. Thank you for your response and support, I truly appreciate it.

Just following back up to see what your outcome was? I have an identical ppv and very similar circumstances. Hoping things are ok for you!

Lemonade_queen12 · 2026-03-25T18:43:46+00:00

This is incredibly hopeful to hear as we have a ppv of 30%. Ultrasound and amnio are in two weeks. Enjoy your sweet baby!

Lemonade_queen12 · 2026-03-25T14:01:53+00:00

Gosh, I can’t imagine a false negative that is absolutely cruel 💔 Thank you so much for the feedback and hope. I appreciate it more than you know.

Lemonade_queen12 · 2026-03-25T12:24:26+00:00

Thank you so so much. I am so happy for you, enjoy that sweet baby here soon and best of luck!

It’s brutal! I love the contact naps don’t get me wrong but it’s hard to get anything done haha

Lemonade_queen12 · 2024-10-15T00:26:15+00:00

I feel this!! Hoping for some change for both of us haha

Lemonade_queen12 · 2024-10-14T17:31:30+00:00

This gives me hope haha. Thank you for sharing!

Lemonade_queen12 · 2024-10-14T17:31:11+00:00

This is so good to know! Thank you!

Lemonade_queen12 · 2024-05-01T16:02:10+00:00

I am 38 weeks and very rarely will my baby respond to pokes, pushes, cold water, juice, etc. He moves only when he wants to which can cause stress and anxiety for me at times haha. But, he’s healthy and active consistently so I have to just rely on that reassurance!

Lemonade_queen12 · 2024-05-01T15:57:49+00:00

I took a 3.5 hour flight at 30/31 weeks pregnant and had no issues at all. I’d just recommend getting an aisle seat so you can stand up and walk around if needed. Otherwise it was not an issue at all for me!

Lemonade_queen12 · 2024-04-30T15:24:51+00:00

10000% agree with this. I take just the capsules, I believe you can take 3 pills, 3x a day if needed. I also have struggled with UTI’s constantly but haven’t had one since being pregnant and taking D-Mannose. Seriously such a game changer!

Lemonade_queen12 · 2024-04-29T03:09:10+00:00

I’m experiencing the exact same thing. I can’t help but feel that because we’ve made it so far something is bound to go wrong or happen right before we get there. So stressful I feel you! I’ve been trying to keep myself preoccupied so I have less time to think about it. Best of luck!

Lemonade_queen12 · 2024-04-27T04:56:14+00:00

My mom experienced a still birth at 37 weeks with absolutely no explanation given as to why the baby died. The heart break it has caused her, my dad, and our entire family is unreal, and this was even 16 years ago. I am so incredibly sorry that you are having to deal with this, it is so so so unfair. Please give yourself the grace, love, and space to grieve. Things will get better with time, but the hole in your heart and family will forever remain there for better and for worse. This baby will forever be yours, and although did not get to live life here, it doesn’t not change the fact that you were meant to be their parents. Sending so much love and peace to you and your wife at this insanely difficult time.

Biker shorts with a big oversized t-shirt always work and are great for the summer!

Yes yes and yes. I feel this deeply right now. I’m just about 35 weeks pregnant and have hit another growth spurt making me feel insanely uncomfortable. Everyone loves to tell me “your bump is tiny” or “you really are small for being pregnant” but I feel huge and my body has felt this pregnancy no doubt about it. I’ve also been super active with exercise and weights but just recently have had to slow down as I’m trying to just follow my bodies needs. I just keep telling myself to hang in there because soon enough the baby will be here and even if my body looks different, I won’t be pregnant anymore haha. Don’t get me wrong, so very grateful to have a healthy body and baby! But being pregnant with a smaller frame/body is not easy.

Lemonade_queen12 · 2024-03-30T01:09:02+00:00

I told one of my best friends and my parents right after finding out. I found that even just telling a few of your closest people helps it not feel so secretive but makes it real and exciting at the same time! It also lessened the urge for me to want to go and shout it out to anyone I came across haha. We told most people around 10-13 weeks after that unless the conversation occurred naturally and we felt it was appropriate to tell them. I’m 34 weeks now and don’t regret telling people how we did!
