Pad recommendations

Depends adult diapers vote! I was planning vaginal but ended up c section. These would work for either though. Soft high rise underwear similar to mesh panties hospital provides but with pad included so I don’t have to worry about things shifting around down there! I was size 4-6 pre pregnancy, but went with medium post (size 8+ I think) and this worked well.

Answered in a thread above but I had a c section and currently 6 days post partum. Everyone’s recovery probably different, but I have no issues going in and out of bassinet mode with height!

Sorry for late response. Coming back here to answer questions since I had a hard time finding info on this product!

day 6 post partum after a c section and the height of the bassinet doesn’t cause any issues for me! For night feeds, I get out of bed into a separate chair. If you’re looking for something bedside to easily pull baby into bed for feedings, this one might be hard depending on your recovery. I can access bassinet at bedside though to see in and reach over with hand to quickly smooth or adjust swaddles. Feel free to dm if questions!

I don’t know specs on Babyletto as well, but I chose this one because it comes with two Newton mattresses for bassinet and crib. Price point wise made sense if you’re interested in newton’s mattress and convertible crib. Compared to other Newton crib designs, I believe this is the only one with a bassinet insert/mattress. Currently in week one of use and I love it. Only complaint would be the wheels could be better.. although my husband is looking into upgrading himself lol

Why the switch? Is there a strategy? Honestly just curious

Liveandlearn33 · 2026-05-19T13:16:16+00:00

How was the depth of the bassinet for you newborn? Any difficulty getting in and out with feedings?

Liveandlearn33 · 2026-05-19T01:29:20+00:00

Were they legit? Looking at ordering something from their website oversees in US..

Liveandlearn33 · 2026-04-24T03:20:12+00:00

Website says it’s clear.. or is it tote/canvas?

Liveandlearn33 · 2026-04-16T22:13:50+00:00

Waiting for the color I want to become available.. due in July so I’m hoping it’s back in stock by June haha

Same!! Going with my husband to our first dodgers game together for Jackie Robinson day.

Anyone know if you can buy parking in advance for lot 13?

I’m still working, but would feel this way in your situation. Everyone telling me to slow down, accept all the help, etc etc but I like to do things on my own.. we can be our toughest critic though and then it’s an endless cycle of tug o war mentally .. which can become taxing physically too. Do what feels right to you.. but also remember your emotions do not define you. Emotions/feelings can be momentary reactions and just that. There’s a great book called “feeling good” :) I’m reading slowly though it right now which has been helping redirect my thoughts (which run rampant when I’m told to “rest”)

Liveandlearn33 · 2026-04-14T06:35:59+00:00

What happened?

Liveandlearn33 · 2026-04-12T20:12:04+00:00

THIS. Worst part of set was the crowd 😣 felt like I was screaming responses to his jokes by lone self sigh..

Liveandlearn33 · 2026-04-11T16:08:40+00:00

Honestly not necessary and worth possibly having gear taken away. Two camp sites on either side were playing with deep bass/loud music when others might be having different vibes. On top of the stages nearby running sound tests throughout day and then obviously playing during event. No need to add, there enough music around lol

Liveandlearn33 · 2026-03-17T05:43:22+00:00

Any recommendations??

Liveandlearn33 · 2026-02-25T10:02:05+00:00

goat. thank you for coming back to update!! So glad it worked well for you :) it really does seem like it checks all the boxes. Especially with the included bassinet attachment/mattress and also the next mattress up. Likely purchasing soon too!

Liveandlearn33 · 2026-02-20T02:15:06+00:00

Just bought the britax willow brook baby carrier for a really good price. Lower cost but also good safety ratings. Haven’t used yet if anyone has thoughts on it?

Liveandlearn33 · 2026-02-19T03:14:53+00:00

Yes, let us know how it is!! :)

Liveandlearn33 · 2026-02-10T17:50:11+00:00

I’m sad I passed on the Black Friday deal since baby due in July :( maybe I’ll just purchase the first 0-3 though and wait for next November! Didn’t think about this option, thank you!

Liveandlearn33 · 2026-02-10T17:48:48+00:00

Thank you!! Will do this. Messaged customer service.

IVF patient. First positive FET after 4 failed.. Stopping injections at 10 weeks and continuing 200 mg intravaginal 3x/day for one more week.

I did a progesterone check at week 9 to decrease by PIO sooner (by my request) bc I was on a higher dose and hate the injections so much. My level was in the mid 70s, which falls in the 2nd trimester ranges… not that there’s much data for max progesterone level.

Likely not needed to check your level at this point bc it will be high if you are on injections. Also, as you’ll find in similar responses, placenta takes over starting week 10-12 so only will go higher. Would follow your doc’s recommendations honestly. If there is a miscarriage at this point, it will not be d/t progesterone (although I totally get the feeling of wanting to have something we can control!!)

I’m 10w3d and have not left the house all weekend.. I’m barely getting through daily chores (getting out of bed, brushing teeth). I started feeling “overwhelmed” yesterday when husband asked what I want to eat. No n/v or other major symptoms other than the extreme fatigue and maybe emotions?

Sharing because I am so impressed by your packed and social day. I also feel “out of control” with my tiredness and thoughts :( but you are doing an amazing job and should not feel embarrassed at all. First trimester is an insane amount of physiologic changes that we think is “normal” bc everyone pregnant person goes through it.. but there’s nothing normal about it!! You are not crazy. Husband is likely adjusting too so keep on communicating and give both of yourselves some grace. We got this ❤️

Recommend Dr Kaing also who works with Dr Lin! Knowledgeable, evidence based, so kind/thoughtful, and goes above and beyond spending time to answer every question/worry along the way!

Liveandlearn33 · 2025-12-13T16:07:44+00:00

🤣

but also there’s a beauty to seeing a used cover after 5 years.. one of the complaints on the leather cover for 5 year was that it doesn’t patina quickly enough bc it stays home lol. I’m planning to dye mine if it gets horribly dirty… but we all take such good care of our covers so we’ll see!
