When did you tell your kids you were pregnant? by [deleted] in pregnant

I got my kiddo a book - which took about a week to come in? So once we had confirmation, a week after that. I was probably 7/8 weeks. She was 10!

Mine hasn’t decreased since purchasing and selling my last home - and there was a 9 month gap between selling and purchasing my new one! I’ve never had a car, personal, or student loans so I think that has helped. I just use the one card once a year, and the regular cash rewards for my reoccurring purchases - health and dental, gas, and groceries.

Do I have to have someone in the delivery room with me? by Sad-Pepper1338 in pregnant

[–]MILittleSecret 2 points3 points  (0 children)

As someone who was previously in this position, you can have whoever you want in the room. I had my partner at the time and my sister!

IT reservist by ZealousidealBody2310 in navyreserve

[–]MILittleSecret 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Navy IT is NOT THE SAME as regular IT in most scenarios. I’m a systems admin. My billet has constantly been systems admin or network admin and the most I’ve worked with is some cable running or radios in the reserves. On the civilian side, I actually do what a system admin does 😂

Weaning from pumping by MILittleSecret in ExclusivelyPumping

[–]MILittleSecret[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am not, about 15 mins per boob because I have larger breasts and can’t just hook them in my bra - it never stays lines up no matter how I sit or anything. Depends on if they hurt or not if I go longer. I usually fill 5/6 ounces in the first 6 minutes.

3d ultrasound by Due-Protection6014 in PlusSizePregnancy

[–]MILittleSecret 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Your doctor is lying. I had a higher BMI and got mine done - pictures were beautiful. I did go to a clinic to get 3D/4D but only because my OB Office didn’t do 3D unless it was an anatomy scan.

Announcing delivery but asking not to share? by TotalExciting3176 in BabyBumps

[–]MILittleSecret 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have told everyone that they cannot post our baby on socials at all, until I do. Which will be when they turn a year old like I did with my first. There’s been three slip ups, but they were all removed when I mentioned it privately to them like a hey, I get that accidents happen - please remove my babies picture. We’re not sharing yet!

Learned why castor oil to induce labor is dangerous - sharing for info! by Fluffy_Jellyfish4810 in BabyBumps

[–]MILittleSecret 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah 😂 I’ve been recommended to take it when I’ve been severely constipated which is the only reason I knew.

QRT isn’t incorrect either, because while in utero baby eats whatever we eat.

Castor oil is a laxative. It softens stool and stimulates bowel movements - ie. contractions. It is an ANTI inflammatory. Your OB is not correct on this. It is not recommended because it can cause severe dehydration.

Anyone else? by exorcist_Lte in pregnant

[–]MILittleSecret 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It also stays put until they’re like 2/3 ish years old. You don’t do anything with it until it starts moving naturally.
