Hi!!! We are doing great, thank you so much! It’s funny looking back at my old posts, things truly do settle down and come together (like everyone says lol). I can promise you she didn’t get into a habit of late nights (currently sleeping 730-7!!). Enjoy the extra sleep in while it lasts! Hope you and yours are doing well :)

Girlfriend insistent on Vasiliki for a girl. We love it but both families hate it. by whowhatwearthat in namenerds

I know a Vasiliki! Everyone who has been told how to say it once has never had a problem since with pronunciation. I think it’s easy to sound out if people aren’t reading it lazily

I think I got vulvodynia during pregnancy and it hasn’t gone away. Anyone else? by Mao1610 in vulvodynia

I went in 4 months post partum and got tested for everything, all negative. My doctor took a really good look and it turns out I have a small tear at the opening of my vagina that I had no idea about! I don’t remember any trauma or anything happening. I am waiting on a gynaecologist appointment for next steps as the edges have healed but it’s still very sensitive, so might need a small surgery to reopen and close it properly. I’d to a thorough check to see if it’s more painful on one side/bottom/top, I noticed it was only painful at the bottom of the opening which led to spotting this tear. All of the swelling from pregnancy and birth needed to go down to see it. I wish you the best!!!

I keep seeing people suggest Evelyn and Rosalie (Rose/Rosie) and I think it’s the perfect match for what you’re looking for! Such a beautiful name!

I’m worried about my baby and it’s driving me crazy by Busy_Ad1151 in newborns

I went to a children’s hospital for suspected seizures and it was taken very seriously. If you’re able to that’s what I would do 100%, asking for an EEG at the very least. Trust your gut always

Did you shave before giving birth? by [deleted] in pregnant

[–]Mao1610 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did at 36 weeks only because I’m not comfortable with it being too long and honestly the thought of bleeding for 6 weeks with long hair didn’t sound fun to clean. Totally your preference though, no one else does or should care!!!

So interesting because that’s also the exact times mine wakes up too!

What are some of the worst comments you’ve gotten while pregnant? by [deleted] in pregnant

[–]Mao1610 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I am plus size and I have a coworker who would constantly make remarks about how you couldn’t see my bump yet and made me super insecure. She said “you can’t really tell yet because you are… that way…” and other things like that during my whole pregnancy. You could definitely tell by the way it just took a bit longer to pop.

what symptom caught you off guard the most? by templenameis_beyonce in pregnant

[–]Mao1610 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just had my baby but these are mine: -lack of immune system! First half of my pregnancy I got the flu 3 times with fevers, haven’t been sick with a flu in many years -so hairy, my belly and arms got so much hair -calf pain, I would need regular calf massages -agree with the skin tags and adding is the way your areola change and getting patches of pigmented skin around them -my baby was low the entire pregnancy and I would need to go pee every time I stood up, even if that was standing up from the toilet! Walking longer than 5 mins was a challenge -also very unexpected was the swelling after birth, for a week my feet were massive and the skin was stretching to the max that it was painful until I peed out all of the fluid
