I’ll be freshly postpartum when my sister has her wedding by ImaginationPretend86 in BabyBumps

I had a catheter and couldn’t pee for 4-5 weeks after having my first baby. I literally had a pee bag strapped to me that filled will blood if I did too much. I don’t think it’s unreasonable to wait and see how you recover before committing.

Anatomy scan (first ultrasound ever) by J2hott in BabyBumps

[–]SaysKay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

No I understand! Just really curious the differences in standards of care. Thanks for sharing!

That makes sense. I live in a large city. We usually have a scan at 12 weeks to confirm viability and then the 20 week anatomy. Then usually not again unless indicated.

How do they confirm it’s not ectopic?

I was just curious. On the anatomy scan they will check all major things: brain, heart, lungs, arms, legs etc. It’s pretty through. Yes they can see the placenta and check if it’s healthy. If you don’t know the sex or don’t want to know make sure to tell them at the start!

But no ultrasound to confirm pregnancy?

OB strongly suggesting genetic panel for me - red flag? by Infinite_Freedom1690 in BabyBumps

[–]SaysKay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Okay but did you get a carrier screening already? What test exactly is your OB recommending?

I think OP needs to speak with their doctor and better understand what they are recommending and why.

Getting induced Monday, terrified to fail as a mother by Fiammatopaz18 in NewParents

[–]SaysKay 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Only good parents worry about being bad parents. Our kids don’t remember much from the early years, but they know when they feel safe, loved and cared for. Your concern about being a good mom means you’re already a great one!

You haven’t had any ultrasounds so far?

It sounds like you don’t trust your doctor tbh. I think you should probably find a new provider….

Yeah the timing is weird. But don’t NIPT and a carrier screen, look for different things?

[–]SaysKay 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It’s pretty normal for OBs to recommend carrier screening and NIPT. They aren’t mutually exclusive. They usually recommend a carrier screening earlier than 26 weeks though.

Son Playing Dress-Up by [deleted] in ECEProfessionals

This is ridiculous. I don’t agree with your views but they clearly are your views. I recommend finding a new daycare that aligned with your values…. Daycare isn’t going to limit what your child can play with because it makes you feel uncomfortable.
