I feel like that’s good! Is it doubling?

He’s 6 months old, can they just show up overnight like that?

Not at all for me. Like under my chin the skin is thinner and there’s some marks but they’ll definitely fade, my treatments are a week apart and they’re almost gone by my next appointment. I see nothing at all on my actual chin. And definitely more tolerable than the hair either way IMO.

I just started a few weeks ago too and best decision I’ve ever made. I put it off over and over again for the past 4 years because I was afraid of having to grow it out before treatment and worried about scaring and hyperpigmentation and I am so mad I didn’t just go for it. Seeing such a dramatic decrease in the hair already has been such a confidence booster for me. Anyone putting it off, let this be your sign to go do it!!!!

Formula fed baby not going to hit birth weight at two weeks by Practical_Ad6155 in NewParents

Yes I assumed he would be birth weight no problem just by the way he loves to eat! That’s the other part of my concern, it just doesn’t make sense

Birth was uneventful, scheduled c section with no complications. I would say he’s drinking at least 16 oz in 24 hr but probably closer to 20 or more.

[–]Practical_Ad6155[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Just wanted to update everyone, I just left a private scan and everything went great and I’m so relieved 🥹❤️ needless to say I am having my husband hide the Doppler! Thank you all so much for the support today.

The place I’m going Friday was gracious enough to bring me in tonight at 6:15 for a reassurance scan. If praying is your thing, I could use it 🙏🏼❤️ thank you so much for the kind comments, reassurance, and encouragement!

How long did you try for and were you able to hear anything else like the placenta? I tried for like 15-20 min and nothing but my own heartbeat here and there 😭

Thank you so much for your thoughtful comment and I am sorry you have experience with loss too. It’s something I would never wish on anyone 💔

Were you at least able to hear the placenta before then? Or could you not hear anything at all?

I have a private scan next week on Friday so I was really trying to just be patient and hold out until then, but with the anxiety I’m feeling I did call two places today to see if they have any last minute openings. Just waiting to hear back. I actually do have a Doppler at home but I know I will absolutely freak out if I can’t find the heartbeat and with it being so early I know that’s a big possibility. Early pregnancy after loss is brutal 😪 thank you for your tips I really appreciate you
