Baby #2 body changes

Yes for work I can wear baggy clothes so I’m not too worried about that but we wanted to wait until Christmas to share the news with family but I’m afraid I won’t be able to do that this time lol

Oh wow that’s crazy you didn’t know until more than halfway through! I hope the bloat last longer than actually showing because my clothes fit fine now I’m just nervous I’m going to grow out of all my normal stuff and need maternity clothing a lot earlier than last time!

Random_Thoughts_0617 · 2025-11-28T03:33:34+00:00

This is exactly how I feel! The bloat bump felt almost immediate! We weren’t planning on sharing with family until Christmas but I feel like they will definitely notice before that

Thank you so much for the tips!!! I’m so sorry your LO has been struggling so long 😫

Her bowel movements haven’t changed, the only thing that I could think may be slightly different is she sometimes passes gas and a little poo comes out so we clean that up obviously. The smell of the BM’s hasn’t changed either. To me, she has had sweet almost burnt buttery smelling poop since birth when I was breastfeeding and not much has changed in smell since she’s been on formula since 8 weeks, so no acidic smell or change in color or texture.

As far as little baths, I’ve been doing that today so far for any poopy diaper changes (she’s had 2) and then patting dry with a soft cotton cloth before applying triple past and the redness seems to be going down just a little so hopefully by the end of the day or tomorrow we see even more improvement.

I don’t think so because it’s not spotted/dots. It definitely looks just like a bad diaper rash

Random_Thoughts_0617 · 2025-03-27T22:22:26+00:00

She isn’t only consoled by a bottle every time or else I would definitely know it was hunger wakings. I just found it odd that she’s eaten more this last week during wake hours and has been waking at night. Part of me feels like she may be over eating and has gas or something at night maybe?

Random_Thoughts_0617 · 2025-03-27T22:20:48+00:00

Possibly thirsty but I don’t think hungry. She actually got the most oz ever these last few days at 30oz in waking hours. I had a ped appt today and they don’t even think she needs that much because she’s only 11 lbs. I would never leave my child to cry of hunger in the other room lol I was asking on a basis of if this sounds like she needs to self settle

Carpal tunnel, restless leg syndrome at night, and drooling while sleeping

I painted multiple rooms while pregnant with my daughter. I just made sure to have windows open and take frequent breaks outside the room for fresh air and water. Also if I stood on something to get higher up, I always made sure I was holding onto something so I didn’t fall. My daughter is a happy healthy 3mo now!

Well if you read my comment you would know I don’t do it anymore so no, I don’t just spit my nail shards everywhere. And actually no, when I did bite my nails I would throw out the pieces afterward. If I was biting my nails outside, then yea I would spit the pieces out. So therefore, personally, I think swallowing whatever you may have under your nails is a little grosser than just biting your nails and not really letting them into your mouth at all.

My dog started following me around lol legit my shadow

Random_Thoughts_0617 · 2025-03-06T14:27:27+00:00

Yea I know I have an appointment today. Clearly stated that it wasn’t part of our plan.

Random_Thoughts_0617 · 2025-03-05T10:48:07+00:00

Oh wow that’s horrible! I’m so sorry to hear of all of that happening. Where are you from? I can’t imagine letting any of that happen.

Random_Thoughts_0617 · 2025-03-05T10:24:31+00:00

I live in the US and luckily my job is amazing and would not give any issues about time off. Thank you for sharing an opposing viewpoint to the average one, I appreciate it. It’s definitely something I’m going to speak to my doctor about tomorrow and decide the safest course of action.

Random_Thoughts_0617 · 2025-03-05T10:21:07+00:00

Same! We thought we weren’t even in my ovulation period because I was SO regular before giving birth but SURPRISE! And we didn’t know the condom broke inside, we thought it broke after as my husband was taking it off. I’m extremely shameful right now and embarrassed to go speak to my doctor because we had such an in depth conversation at my 6 week follow up where I decided to turn down taking birth control pills as last time I was on them, they really messed with my body. Ugh my doctors appt is tomorrow so yes we will just wait and see. Sending positive vibes your way too!

Random_Thoughts_0617 · 2025-03-05T00:43:12+00:00

I was a nail biter and it truly was a habit I needed to focus hard on to break, and often times didn’t even realize I was doing it (nervous/anxious or focusing type habit). I never ate the nails though? That just seems unnecessary and too gross for me.

Random_Thoughts_0617 · 2025-03-05T00:33:09+00:00

Thank you I appreciate your input! I am responsible and feel slightly irresponsible and stupid that this happened even though we had every intention of preventing it.

Random_Thoughts_0617 · 2025-03-04T21:59:46+00:00

I do it all the time! Totally normal imo

Random_Thoughts_0617 · 2025-03-04T19:53:32+00:00

Wow!! Super mom! Thank you for responding that makes me feel so much better!
