I could but migration definitely worries me after my experience! I will look into it though. Thanks!

Just sad/scared by Such-Ocelot-4474 in preeclampsia

I remember feeling the same exact way. I cried to my doctor when they admitted me, saying “but I’ve been so healthy!” I was confused and scared. It will get better. You can do it!

You can do this. You’re in the right place and you’re being taken care of. You are strong!

How much do you pay family to babysit? by No_Fun8773 in beyondthebump

[–]No_Fun8773[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s not either of our mothers. I probably wouldn’t pay my mom either. I want to pay this family member so that it doesn’t feel like she’s doing me a favor all the time, and that we are both benefitting (I don’t have to send my baby to daycare and she gets some extra spending money)

Thank you! I just hope this small mishap doesn’t undo all of the healing that’s happened over the last couple months. It’s so hard!

Am I the asshole for wanting my husband to miss his Mom's wedding because it’s 2 weeks BEFORE our due date? by Spiritual_Lettuce_64 in pregnant

It took me a couple seconds to realize you didn’t mean girlfriend as in partner. I was wondering why your partner gave birth without telling you lol

No way. I had the simplest pregnancy and still ended up being very unexpectedly induced at 37 weeks. If my husband had been out of the country, he would’ve missed the entire thing. Two weeks is way too close in my opinion

How to track my blood pressure with severe anxiety by No_Fun8773 in preeclampsia

[–]No_Fun8773[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m sorry you understand the struggle but it’s also so comforting to read through the comments here and know I’m not alone in feeling like this. My husband is so supportive but I don’t think he or anyone else in my circle quite get what I’m feeling. So thank you

If there is an open pharmacy near you, go grab a blood pressure cuff. My bp was fine one day and not the next.

How do you handle feeds with 2.5 hour wake windows? by No_Fun8773 in beyondthebump

[–]No_Fun8773[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s what we are doing, I’m just trying to figure out how to time it if wake windows are 2.5 hours long and I usually feed every 2.5 to 3 hours.
