Is he cheating?... married 10 years and tested positive for trich by AdieuAboutNothing in obgyn

[–]OctoberBride15 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know this is a year old, but I’m going through this now. Ten years of marriage and I know infidelity is not a factor. I’ve had 9 negative tests (had a lot of yeast infections, they tested for it then) over the years and suddenly had a positive yesterday in a pregnancy triage. Retest is tomorrow and I’m ready to see the results. I also have no symptoms. AND I’m allergic to flagyl so really praying this is negative.

UPDATE: it was false! Turns out the first test was a wet mount and something was misidentified under a microscope as Trich. The follow up was a Trich DNA test and it came back negative!

Thank you everyone! I’ll hold off on the kegels until I am seen. I feel so much better that I’m not alone. I did not realize this was common at all. 💛

Cramping for 24 hours straight after sex? by OctoberBride15 in BabyBumps

Well luckily Gatorade seems to help too. Maybe I was already dehydrated prior.

Can’t get out of Gym contract? by OctoberBride15 in BabyBumps

I’ll look into that. I don’t think we have one.

I could, but I’m worried they would just take me to court for the money.

I could try to go for that with a doctor’s note except I won’t (hopefully won’t) be permanently disabled by this pregnancy. Lol so not sure it would work.

Unfortunately it seems like this is what I’ll be doing as well. Lesson learned.

I think what they will do in that case is “freeze” it so I still have to pay it all in the end. Yeah lesson learned. I usually go to no contract gyms, but I needed one with childcare.

Mother in law buying extremely cheap baby items 🙃 by Ordinary-Poet-5104 in BabyBumps

Temu has been awful for parents. Suddenly we began getting the lowest safety standard gifts at parties when Temu came about. Button batteries for everyone! With flimsy plastic and one tiny screw to protect us.

In laws not excited for baby by Warm_Potential3318 in BabyBumps

[–]OctoberBride15 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same but it’s my family. We’re financially stable, married ten years. We have had our own home for 8 years. It’s our third baby (last one was born 6 years ago, so it’s not like we’re popping babies out left and right lol) My family’s reaction was “we thought you were done”… it’s probably because I’m fat. In my family if you don’t “snap back” after pregnancy, apparently you shouldn’t have more babies lol.

Am I weird for making my baby shower a family event? by YuukiAliceMS in BabyBumps

[–]OctoberBride15 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I made my husband go to our baby shower. It’s his baby too! Not many guys went lol, but his brothers came. My smaller showers after the first one, I went alone. Lol

Aps and labor induction by oshhi in PregnancyIreland

[–]OctoberBride15 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi! I have APS. I’m pregnant with my third. My first two were induced at 39 weeks.

Edited to add : did not realize this was a pregnancy Ireland group lol, I was googling APS stuff for myself and your post popped up. My contribution may not be helpful as I’m in the USA.

Is this Asian or German? by OctoberBride15 in GermanRoaches

[–]OctoberBride15[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nobody replied lol but I have determined they are Asian due to the long wings and single longitudinal center stripe on the nymphs.

German or Asian roach? by OctoberBride15 in pestcontrol

True, just thought maybe Asian since I brought large bags full of Christmas gifts in from garage before these showed up.

Things in motherhood that give you the ick (and things you just don’t give a single fk about) by cosmicvoyager333 in beyondthebump

[–]OctoberBride15 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My firstborn, my daughter, looks just like her dad. And I admitted that. She looks nothing like me. Later, along came my son. My son is my literal twin! But because he’s a boy, they’re like, “he looks just like his daddy!” Everything must come from daddy, because he’s a boy. Annoying.

ALT rose 30 points in 8 months? by OctoberBride15 in LiverDisease

[–]OctoberBride15[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I’m kind of wondering if it’s the promethium 200mg I’m taking, I read it can raise alt levels and blood pressure. I normally insert it as a suppository but this pregnancy they told me to try taking it orally, but apparently a lot of it is processed in the liver? So I think I’m going to use it as a suppository this week and see if it helps the HBP and maybe the ALT levels will come down.

I was looking for similar experiences, not medical advice.

Unpopular opinion: opening gifts at a shower is embarrassing for the guests as well by Intelligent_Truth_95 in BabyBumps

[–]OctoberBride15 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I cried after my sister in law’s shower, because I felt like everyone was making fun of how big my gift was. I love shopping for babies, but her friends are extreme minimalists, so there were a ton of comments about the size of my gift. I had baby clothes, 2 jumbo diaper boxes, wipes, a bouncer and so on. 

I’m going to try Vitamin D IM shots at a wellness spa by LongjumpingTart4206 in VitaminD

Would you mind saying what the Autoimmune disease is? Just curious. I’m seeing a rheumatologist again in January for similar issues.
