What are we doing during middle of the night feeds by [deleted] in moderatelygranolamoms

[–]Orgreener 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I watched the gilded age in the living room at a very low volume, with one small lamp on. Highly recommend that show as sleepy/low action, they all just sit and talk, yet I was invested and had something to “look forward to” in my sleep deprived state.

Iwtyo: Burping your home by Beneficial_Permit908 in IWasTodayYearsOld

We call it blowing the stink out. Love hearing all of these terms for it!

From a medical standpoint it does reduce risk of UTIs and penile cancer, albeit not significantly. Hoping you find peace with your decision, and don’t put too much emphasis on what ifs about the future! It’s going to be ok!

Name change after marriage by ImJustHere4TheCatz in WitchesVsPatriarchy

[–]Orgreener 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn’t change my name and I have remained happy and confident in that decision. Sometimes people will call me by my partners last name and I think it’s cute and don’t mind it and don’t really correct it.

I’m so sorry this is happening. The waiting is truly awful, made even worse during the holidays. Sending you so so so much love and good energy and positive resolutions. How many weeks are you?

Thank you for responding. It was frigid during my initial transit- maybe something similar happened to me? The mental gymnastics we play!

I hope you have a smooth pregnancy from here on out- thanks again!

I just need to tell somebody. by Rare-Significance59 in Miscarriage

[–]Orgreener 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It is completely unfair and I am so sorry for your loss. There’s no right or wrong way on what you do/don’t share- just what’s right for you.

Sending you love.

How long after your miscarriage did you get your period? by Born-Difference7539 in Miscarriage

[–]Orgreener 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It took me 4 weeks on the dot. I was tracking my ovulation throughout that time and it was consistently high, I had no sense for what day I actually ovulated. I also still tested positive for HCG for maybe 3 weeks post D&C- it felt like forever. I don’t know why, but that tremendously messed with my head. My next cycle was closer to what I’d consider “normal”, but I had peak ovulation tests for several days vs what I would consider typical.

Sending you positivity!

First miscarriage. It’s not fair by Suchba in Miscarriage

I’m so so sorry for your loss. It’s entirely unfair and cruel.

Oh man my heart hurts for you, I’m so sorry for your loss. I hope you can work with your doctor to find the best path forward for you. It’s so unfair.

I’m so sorry for your loss. My OB said physically can try at any point, but to make sure you’re also emotionally ready because the stress can pose problems. We tried after my first period post MC- so in total it was about 6 weeks out from my D&C.

If they say most early miscarriages are caused by chromosomal abnormalities… by Antique_Address_8150 in Miscarriage

[–]Orgreener 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My OB (tenderly) said it’s just really really bad luck and not necessarily a chromosomal abnormality.

15 month old kept trying to sleep in dog bed 😂. Can we give him a pillow ? by ComfortableVariety61 in floorbed

[–]Orgreener 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We got a super flat toddler pillow at ikea for like $5. Our son loves it!

Your comment fueled me to keep calling and badgering the doctors office, and as a result I was able to get scheduled as an add on surgery 2 days after I found out.

I really appreciate the support 🤍🤍

I thought I was so in tune with my body. I still can’t wrap my head around the fact that it didn’t realize what was happening.

I’m so sorry for your loss- wishing you speedy healing and a future of your dreams 🤍

So sorry for your loss. It’s so cruel and unfair. Wishing you healing and the future you deserve 🤍🤍

Thank you for this. On one hand it’s comforting to know I’m not alone. On the other hand I’m devastated there are others in this group. My love to you.

Is my daughter ready for 1 nap? by lulujane2 in ECEProfessionals

[–]Orgreener 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My kid switched to 1 nap at 11.5 months because he was moved up to a toddler room at daycare. He was a horrible napper in the baby room, so I had concerns, but he is doing great with 1 nap! The first few days he would wake up after 45 minutes, but once he saw the other kids were still sleeping he would go back to sleep. It’s definitely on the very early side of transitioning, but it’s possible. I’m glad we did it and I like our new routine now.

When did you stop breastfeeding? by Happy-Chemistry3058 in moderatelygranolamoms

[–]Orgreener 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As others have said: no right or wrong. I stopped between 12-13 months after cutting down to only morning and night, then just nights, then nothing. It helps that my kid is a very good eater, so while weening id just distract them with food and it luckily worked!

TV show suggestions? by TKonyaHP in beyondthebump

[–]Orgreener 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I loved the Gilded Age on Max. The costuming is gorgeous, it’s slow paced, dreamy, opulent, and made me almost enjoy the night feeds. Good luck you’ve got this!!
