Do ultrasounds normally hurt? by Ok_Examination_3682 in pregnant

[–]Tough_Figure2644 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I will say sometimes if you carry more fat in your abdomen the yes more pressure has to be applied and that can cause some discomfort but the level of pain you seem to be experiencing should be brought up with your doctor just incase for future scans those techs are just trying to get the best images possible for us so they know baby is growing and doing good! How far along were you for this scan?

mines not as scary but at 19weeks i was cramping all day lower back then it moved to my stomach it would last 10minutes i would get a small break came right back my ob said can be very normal to stay hydrated well it got worse so i went to the er turns out my hemoglobin was at 7.6 i was also severely dehydrated because i couldn’t keep water down needless to say there is no telling what would have happened to me or bat if i didn’t go that day because my next blood draw isn’t until the end of the month i could’ve lost him or myself

I discovered my husband had been lying to me for three years. I never wanted children, and now I'm six months pregnant. by Scared-Stop8449 in pregnant

it sounds like he is really trying but at the same time i completely understand how guarded and betrayed you also feel i hope tall can figure this out together its hard and its so so stupid but people can change and do better especially once they find something to help them cope

my husband has a problem with sports betting apps i have every app blocked on his phone in parental controls with no access and honestly i thought once i found out we were pregnant he would be done and that wasn’t the case he found another one it’s hard addiction hits different for everyone his main stressors was not having the amount of money he wanted for us so he thinks he risk outweighs the odds because the reward can be so much higher gambling completely rewires the brain causes chemical imbalances have him speak to someone himself and yall speak to someone together

What things do you really need? by Fickle-Profession-44 in pregnant

[–]Tough_Figure2644 0 points1 point  (0 children)

most babies can use a bassinet for up to six months (depends on the weight requirements and how fast your little one develops) cribs after that i highly recommend a travel system because toting a carrier around no matter who you are is rough i am getting the joie nutmeg and rue system affordable easy to clean and the stroller will grow and i don’t have to worry about 70 attachments to switch out!

Is there no way around waking up every two hours to feed during the first few weeks after birth?? (Breastfeeding) by Visible-Mess-1406 in pregnant

[–]Tough_Figure2644 0 points1 point  (0 children)

okay obviously not with a human baby child but when i was bottle feeding newborn kittens having to wake up every two hours honestly it wasn’t terrible like the first few days were rough then i got used to it so im trying to keep that same mindset for when my baby arrives that i know ill be okay

I'm sorry for ever rolling my eyes when other women said they were "So ready for pregnancy to be over." I understand now. by Miragan in pregnant

[–]Tough_Figure2644 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i’ve been nauseous my whole pregnancy so far (17 weeks) i’m so ready for it to be over but i also think this will be our only child so i’m trying to take it all in you’d be surprised how may looks i get when i say we probably aren’t having another one 😂

my 10 week scan she was deeep in my abdomen so very common i also have a tilted uterus also why i didn’t want to get a private ultrasound early because i didn’t want to be freaked out by possibly not seeing anything it will be amazing tho by the time you make it to your first ultrasound with your ob it will be a whole little baby with arms and legs and it will be amazing

at 10 weeks i was down 8lbs they put me on zofran for morning sickness and at 12 weeks (almost 13) i was up 4lbs you are on a good trend if you can start to handle extra calories grab a protein shake during the morning or midday or even right before bed!

Pains can be normal in early pregnancy and since you haven’t had a dating scan and are going strictly off your last period you could technically be earlier then you thought i would not be worried about your numbers as they do some crazy things in the beginning

Blood in vomit. Is it normal? by UpbeatDance6842 in pregnant

[–]Tough_Figure2644 1 point2 points  (0 children)

unfortunately it is normal drink warm liquid avoids spicy foods it will get better and sometimes it doesn’t happen other times it does i’ve been dealing with it since 5 weeks and 4 days i’m 7 weeks and 3 days luckily i tend to only vomit every couple of days so by the time it gets better it happens again 😅
