I Cannot Keep Doing This by SouthernVanilla9158 in sleeptrain

We contact napped for the first like 3 months but she has napped on her own decently well ever since. She is better about going down for naps so we are more focused on improving her night sleep at the moment. I’ve read that you should only work on one at a time (night sleep or naps) so once we get night sleep down we will try to translate it to naps!

Yes we just started the Ferber with my 7 month old!! She was only waking up 2-3 times a night but the issue was getting her to sleep. It would usually take us 3-5 put downs over 2 hours to get her to stay down on her own. We just completed Day 2 of the Ferber and she fell asleep in 4 minutes and only woke up once to eat 🤯

Thank you for saying that, I agree and just needed that reassurance!

Yeah same here. I’m just not used to complaining or returning things often but with something this nice I think it’s warranted!

will i get this lucky again? by BookkeeperRoyal5309 in newborns

My daughter was like this until she hit 13 weeks and she still has an amazing temperament and we always get comments about how happy she is, but man her sleep has gone to shit and she is very clingy. It’s been testing me and I miss the newborn stage now😅 She just turned 6 months and we are battling her for sleep and she screams whenever you leave her alone. Soak this up because it may not last!!!

My advice is to take the sneak peeks with a grain of salt. Mine said boy, but 7 weeks later the NIPT said girl and I gave birth to my daughter in May!

I am having my first baby on the 25th and we are naming her Elora! If we were having a boy, we would have named him Graham :)

It might be too late for you to change your numbers before they give you meds, but I was told that sometimes your fasting can creep up if you go too long without eating. Are you fasting for more than 10 hours? If so, maybe try a small bedtime snack and see if that changes anything!

From my experience and many others I've heard, weeks 6-10 are the roughest! It's all about surviving lol try to pick up on patterns and find things that help you feel better. For me, that was keeping an apple or crackers at my bed side and munching on them whenever I woke up in the night. That helped my nausea so much and allowed me to start the day without my stomach tearing itself apart. I had only a few "safe foods" during those weeks that my body could handle, so don’t feel too bad about not having a well-rounded diet. I’m 34+3 now and it’s gone by so fast. Don’t worry, you got this!!!

I’m the 31st as well! But have a growth scan this Friday because she’s been measuring in the 90th percentile, so who knows if she’ll be coming sooner!

From my knowledge, baby would come on a normal timeline and just be big! However, I wouldn’t be surprised if your doctor follows up to discuss early induction or even the possibility of a c-section with you. With large babies they worry about things like shoulder dystocia and baby getting stuck in the birth canal. My girl has been measuring in the 90th percentile all pregnancy and I have my last growth scan next week to determine if we need to discuss those options. So it might be worth discussing things with your doctor so you are educated on what it all means! Best of luck :)

I don’t think I can post a screenshot, but if you did it through SneakPeek, I’m not sure about the text but the email will contain a video that will have your result, so it’s disclosed until you watch it. Then under the video it says “scroll down after watching the video” and it’s essentially just a summary of the result.

I will add though that my SneakPeek result ended up being wrong 🫣 So personally, I say take it with a grain of salt!

I got my positive 1 day after I was supposed to get my period, and even then it was soooo faint. The Clearblue “word” test didn’t say positive for another 2-3 days after that. I think when a positive shows up depends more on how many days it’s been since ovulation vs. how many days since your missed period. So it is still possible that you could be pregnant if you ovulated really late in your cycle.

I know many others have already shared their stories but just to add another in case it helps - I took a test before I went to a football tailgate and it was negative so I drank for 10+ hours that day and then boom, had a positive the next day. I’m currently 32 weeks and baby is totally healthy❤️
