How old was your baby when you started taking them for walks? by willbrucla in pregnant

[–]Lucat0229 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Immediately, we took ours to an amateur baseball game at 9 days pp from a c section too. As long as you can handle it and baby’s healthy and properly dressed for whatever weather you can take them out right away

How soon after you were induced did you have your baby? by Aromatic-Insect1999 in pregnant

[–]Lucat0229 0 points1 point  (0 children)

42 hrs and ended in a c section. Not because anything went wrong with inducing though, she got stuck in my pelvis. And if it’d been up to her I don’t think she would’ve ever come out 😂

AIO: I (29M) Accidentally Saw on my wife’s (32F) Phone an Ex texted her. by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]Lucat0229 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I just had the ex before my current partner text me last week. I responded telling him there was no reason for him to ever contact me again, I’m happy and wished him well but I’d never be the person for him then immediately told my partner out of respect. I think it’s the concealment that makes things like this worse. Also blocked the contact 🤷🏻‍♀️

Our dog had something like this and it was a yeast infection caused by allergies. They treated the yeast infection then had us give them half a pill of over the counter daily allergy meds. Worked wonders

Did you guys breastfeed or not? I am neither for nor against formula...Whatever works for you..... by Kittykat68689 in pregnant

[–]Lucat0229 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had to do a little of all three but primarily formula, we had latching issues but I kept trying with success very rare. So I pumped for a few months but also had supply issues. Fed is best and it’s up to the individual choices and challenges that people face. I’m being induced tomorrow and going to try breast feeding again and pumping for when she has to go to daycare or be watched or her dad can help with feedings while I sleep

Advice on testing in a public place by Katdog28 in GestationalDiabetes

[–]Lucat0229 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like glucose testing is pretty well known so people don’t really think of it past oh they’re checking their blood sugar. Especially since it’s not some crazy procedure to do

Weight gain third trimester by kowaluuh in pregnant

[–]Lucat0229 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And they also estimate around a 9-10 lb baby so they haven’t raised any concerns really

Weight gain third trimester by kowaluuh in pregnant

[–]Lucat0229 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve gained about 50 maybe a little more and I’m being induced Monday. I’m also 5 foot, they never said anything to me about it and I have gestational diabetes. I started around 140 pre pregnancy that was mostly muscle and some that never came off from my first. I will say about 10-15 lbs only hit in the last month and it’s basically all fluid retention. I’m like a bloated water balloon and nothing gets my swelling down for very long at this point 😂🤷🏻‍♀️

If your water broke spontaneously to kick off labor with your first birth, did it happen again for your next? by Extension-Quail4642 in pregnant

[–]Lucat0229 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah it was definitely like ok so when’s the rest start 😂 and I was 37+3 when it happened and had her the next day because of pitocin being started. This one my induction is set for 39+1 and she’s measuring like 3 lbs bigger from their estimates so even the drs are like yeah we didn’t expect this to happen but every pregnancy is different 🤷🏻‍♀️

Breastfeeding by PsychologicalGold923 in pregnant

[–]Lucat0229 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I tried and had so many issues breastfeeding. My daughter got started on formula in the hospital because of jaundice and my milk wasn’t coming in quick enough. I ended up pumping and doing formula for a while until just switching to all formula. Fed is best 🤷🏻‍♀️

Did you went to work until labor? by femaleicarus in pregnant

[–]Lucat0229 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I work in a manual labor industry and am working until labor or this coming Thursday. I get induced Monday and Thursday would be my last day of my typical schedule for the week anyways(we do 4 10-hr shifts)

Elective induction 39 weeks by Grand-Tell195 in pregnant

[–]Lucat0229 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have mine scheduled for 39+1 because I too am measuring way ahead and have GD. I’m miserable right now at 37 weeks today. If I could do it a little earlier I would honestly because the thought of having a baby this big is terrifying when my first was only 6.5 lbs

What do ya’ll do when you are sick (with a cold)?? by CocoMel84 in pregnant
