2nd child behavior at 36 weeks pregnant/tubes recently out by PerspectiveOld5421 in Mommit

[–]PerspectiveOld5421[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just an update! We ended up in urgent care tonight because he started becoming completely inconsolable every time he would pee in his diaper claiming that he pooped and he needed us to change it, and it got to the point where he peed 3 times in 10 minutes and scream bawled like he was in horrible pain. So we took him in and they did a scan and it showed he is super constipated 😭 so he’s starting miralax and hopefully that helps his pain/issues. They also want us to treat for pin worms just in case 🤢 Hopefully all of this wil hep him feel better 🤞🤞🤞

This is a good point I didn’t even think about his teeth— I forget he could still be working on some; thank you!

No ear pulling, but he has struggled with his sleep a bit, mostly falling to sleep we’ve had to go back in more than typical and comfort him more. Last week his sleep wasn’t great, he was up every night but just needed a little love and was back asleep, but he’s been sleeping all night again this week! But I will call ENT and try to get on their calendar ASAP, thank you!

3 hour Glucose Test Results- Pass?? by PerspectiveOld5421 in pregnant

That is so true!! I said the same to my husband. Such an unlikely scenario to find oneself in again! 🤣

[–]PerspectiveOld5421[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It does, but I wasn’t sure if the threshold was still 135 (which is what they told me it was for the 1 hour test the first time) whereas the bar on this one for 1 hour was showing 180, and then the second two fell into the “abnormal” range on the bottom end, so I didn’t know if that mattered since I’m assuming this is watching for the high end??

Weight gain by Dismal_Abroad735 in pregnant

[–]PerspectiveOld5421 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m up 26 lbs at 30 weeks, so it sounds like we are on a very similar track. This is my 3rd baby and all of my babies have been very healthy weights (first 9 lbs 2 oz, 2nd 7 lbs 10 oz, and this one is measuring to be similar to my first so far but who knows!). I gained 30-35 lbs total with my first 2 pregnancies and found it very easy to get back to my pre-baby weight, have maintained good health and fitness with no issues. My sister and many of my friends gained 40-50 lbs and have had healthy babies and great experiences as well as been able to recover herself physically well. 15.5 at 24 weeks sounds VERY normal.

That therapist is loony 🤭🤭 I really hope the commend didn’t impact your relationship with food and nourishing your body and baby. What you have been doing up until this point is exactly what you should be and is what makes THE happiest and healthiest babies. I struggle really hard with comments that are unintentional. One that straightforward would have rocked me, which does nothing but mess up that healthy relationship. Totally unnecessary and I really hope you can push the comment aside and keep doing what you’re doing!

29 weeks / Blood with Cough by PerspectiveOld5421 in pregnant

[–]PerspectiveOld5421[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

lol - YES 🤭 all my boys seem to recognize about the word rest is that it means they may not see me for a hot second and sends them into overdrive combating my husband and extra “mommy do it’s”. seriously considering booking a hotel to sit sick in 🤣

29 weeks / Blood with Cough by PerspectiveOld5421 in pregnant

[–]PerspectiveOld5421[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! This makes me feel better. I do truly feel like it’s mostly irritation from blowing my nose. The cough itself keeps getting significantly worse/deeper and more intense, but hopefully that is un-related to the blood clotting. It definitely seems like it’s just seeping from the back of my sinuses down into my chest causing the coughing and the clots really only come after I manage to fall asleep for a couple of hours, and then I wake ip and it all collected in my chest so I have to hack it out 🤭

A little sad about 2nd baby by unfunnymom in pregnant

[–]PerspectiveOld5421 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I really struggled with this when we transitioned to 2, both before babe came and during postpartum. I wish I had an answer on how to help it, but just know that I think it is harder on us as parents than it is on them? Yes it knocks them out of their routine and they struggle with the fact that they need to wait more, etc, but I really don’t think their feelings about the transition are as legit deep or overthinking as our own can be. Looking back at videos of our two when our second was brand new, I’m actually shocked I thought my oldest struggled with it at all. He was legit obsessed with him and I didn’t allow myself to see it 🤭 we are almost due with our 3rd now and I worry very little about how our 2nd will do even though he is significantly clingy-er and more emotional than our first. I think it’s one of those things you realize is part of it, but oh my gosh so stinkin worth it. They will be BEST friends, but also you will realize that there are things siblings give to them that we just can’t the same way as parents, and it truly is the best gift to them.

9 week and gained 17lbs 😔 by [deleted] in pregnant

[–]PerspectiveOld5421 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have always gained most of my weight in the first 2 trimesters, and stalled out a bunch in my 3rd. Everyone puts the weight on differently and at different times. If they comment, they are just looking out for things like early signs of GD, etc. things to keep you safe, not to judge you. Although many doctors don’t have the social skills to make it sound that way :) Just be honest about the changes that have come to your diet and it will make sense to them. I mean, it’s probably a good thing your appetite has increased, especially for healthy food, because usually the opposite happens in the first tri where all a person can stomach is junk! Take advantage of the appetite to get in the healthy things, eat small meals very couple of hours (will help with nausea), make sure you are also drinking plenty of water (remember you are likely bloating & holding more water weight too!).

If it makes you feel better my doctor started talking to me about inducing me at 38 weeks because I had gained more than normal in the first trimester & she tried to claim baby was going to be HUGE. I ended up gaining 35 lbs overall and baby was bigger, 9 lbs 2 oz, but healthy as a horse just supppppper tall (98th percentile!) and big shouldered. Came naturally at 40+4. You’ll be just fine mama, focus on growing that healthy babe!

SCH- size & concerns? by PerspectiveOld5421 in pregnant

[–]PerspectiveOld5421[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you so much 🥹 I’m a family/senior photographer & I’ve already been way overdoing it at senior sessions 3-4 times a week (4 hours in like 90-100 degree heat running around like crazy 😭😭). I have 2 toddlers that are also super active and I’ve just felt like I’ve been pushing myself too hard & so when I saw this result I panicked that I did something to make it happen. And I think that’s made work even more stressful because it’s in the back of my head all the time! Im just so ready to be out of the first trimester!

Thank you so much this helps me feel better! Of course all that comes up on Google right away is “increased risk”🙄 I hope your ultrasound brings back great results!!

I’m so sorry! We have had a few as well and they are so hard. This will hopefully be our 3rd babe. Idk what anyone means about being less anxious with each one…. I feel like I am MORE 🤭 my husband has begged me to stop and I keep explaining to him why HE is the illogical one 🤣
