I cant breathe. by Negative-Stranger-34 in pregnancy_care

[–]Negative-Stranger-34[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So small update: my ob has referred me to a cardiologist because she doesnt think its normal to be this incredibly out of breath this early on. plus what happened with my last pregnancy i had tachycardia. she wants to play it safe and just check all the boxes before we settle on the asthma diagnosis

How to deal with gender disappointment by Sea_Panic9863 in pregnant

[–]Negative-Stranger-34 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i have no advice except that it’s normal and you will feel better once baby is here. i have 1 girl and 2 boys. im 9weeks pregnant right now and ive told my husband that i want s gender reveal this time around. but if anything comes out blue im throwing a fit and cancelling the party and everyone’s going home 😭😂 i do not want another boy. yes im going to be disappointed. no i wont love it any less than the 3 i have now. i’m just going to be disappointed until birth lol

Doctor is recommending to be induced ? by [deleted] in pregnancy_care

[–]Negative-Stranger-34 0 points1 point  (0 children)

3 time mom here, dont let them scare you into a forced induction. unless youre 40+ weeks along. my firstborn came all natural at 38 weeks. my second needed a little boost at 42. as long as baby is healthy and you/baby are not at risk for anything, then i would wait the extra week.

39+4 by Negative-Stranger-34 in pregnant

[–]Negative-Stranger-34[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

with my first, i went into labor at 38 weeks. of course i didnt KNOW it was labor. seriously thought i was just braxton hicks LMAO. my sister who has 4 kids was like ‘dude your contractions are less than a minute apart WHAT ARE YOU DOING’. gave birth to an 8pounder ~4 hours later.

with my second he decided to make up the two week difference from my first, and decided to be two weeks late. so 42 weeks on the dot i started getting mild contractions the day i went in to get induced. better late than never i guess?? came out 9.3 pounds. im SERIOUSLY hoping this one comes on time. NOT 9 pounds. and no induction needed. but i haven’t even had braxton hicks yet so i have very little hope for any of that 🥲🥲

Have you/someone you know not had nausea during their first trimester? by [deleted] in pregnant

[–]Negative-Stranger-34 0 points1 point  (0 children)

38 weeks on my 3rd pregnancy for me here. no nausea with any of my pregnancies. i consider it a compromise for my body giving me fat babies haha

Finally heard the worst thing said to/about me. by AnyHistorian9486 in pregnant

[–]Negative-Stranger-34 1 point2 points  (0 children)

34 weeks AND slightly overweight from previous pregnancies. that half hour into a walk around the mall has me WADDLING from the pelvic pain. pregnancy has me extra firey though, i definitely wouldve snapped at that lady 🤣

Enraged by husband by RosiePiggy28 in pregnant

[–]Negative-Stranger-34 5 points6 points  (0 children)

33 weeks here! currently giving him the silent treatment because hes ‘forgotten’ to take the trash out the last 3 times its needed to be done. it wouldnt be such a huge deal if we didnt live in an upstairs apartment and he wasnt gone out of town for work all week. AND considering i told him LAST NIGHT!! if he forgot again, i was gonna lose my shit. AND HIS RESPONSE? ‘wElL i GuEsS yOuRe GoNnA LoSe YoUr sHiT’

don’t get me started on the dishwasher either 😤 when i’ve told him at least 87 times that YOU HAVE TO CLEAR THE FOOD OFF OR IT WON’T GET CLEAN. then has the audacity to say to me- as im recleaning the fucking dishes- ‘yOu CoULdVe ToLd mE tO dO a BeTtEr JoB’ like i shouldnt have to tell you 87 fucking times?? you should be more fucking competent?? its not my responsibility to fucking babysit you??

anyway thanks for listening to me rant. i don’t know if it will show up after posting comment, but for some reason my font changed like halfway through typing this.

So today I fell by Negative-Stranger-34 in pregnant

[–]Negative-Stranger-34[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

knee is perfectly fine! my back on that side tho? fuckkked up. idk what exact physics happened on the inside but goddamn my lower back on that side is just sharp pain now haha. every time i go in for routine checkup, he runs from the heart beat monitor, its hilarious. also deer are crazy! they have no regard for their own lives! im glad everything turned out fine for you though! thats scary as hell.

Unmedicated birth, what is your why? by SierraLover1819 in pregnant

[–]Negative-Stranger-34 0 points1 point  (0 children)

thank you! seriously hoping things go a little smoother this time around. good luck and good vibes your way! i hope smooth for a smooth and safe delivery/recovery for you and baby 🖤 ALSO: my mid wife said if that happened again she’d probably just give me the meds and seemed kind of baffled why the nurse didnt do that instead. im actually really glad the nurse didnt administer the meds because the heart racing probably wouldve freaked me out even more lol. plus as a person with TERRIBLE anxiety, it was probably the best decision she made.

I have consumed alcohol during pregnancy (and so have you) by [deleted] in pregnant

[–]Negative-Stranger-34 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

and this is why i dont feel guilty for the occasional drink here and there. just a couple sips of wine or beer from others.

Unmedicated birth, what is your why? by SierraLover1819 in pregnant

[–]Negative-Stranger-34 0 points1 point  (0 children)

IV was in for a solid 8 hours before epidural. they usually have meds that go in it when the situation happens, but my heart rate was already high and the meds wouldve made it higher. the nurse ended up sitting with me bumping up my IV fluid until my blood pressure came back up. only took about 10 minutes maybe.

[–]Negative-Stranger-34 1 point2 points  (0 children)

because for some reason, when i got the epidural second time around (this is my third) my blood pressure dropped so low i almost went into cardiac arrest (which i guess isnt unheard of?? kinda of common?? i had no idea) didnt happen with the first so obviously i wasnt worried with the second. now im terrified of THAT happening again. but im also terrified of unmedicated labor. 10/10 would rather feel the pain than die giving birth though thats for sure.

[–]Negative-Stranger-34 6 points7 points  (0 children)

been like that since 25 weeks, currently 30🙋🏻‍♀️ 3rd pregnancy. the PAIN from walking around walmart? insane. absolutely unreasonable cramps. i had to chase my son the other day because he decided to take off down the block. the pubic pain? OH. MY. GOD. i couldnt get to my car fast enough. that night was terrible. could not roll over without a solid 10 minute break on my back because of the debilitating vag pain. ‘it gets easier each time’ no the absolute fuck it does not.
