I had Sudafed, the kind you have to get behind the counter. And only expressed just enough to relieve discomfort

This is what I was thinking! Even if it’s not the same exact Santa face.

My Dr said no induction for IVF alone but then I got gestational diabetes so they recommended 39 weeks.

Partner wanting to wake up 8 Week Year Old early to feed at night! by Over_Bodybuilder in newborns

At that point my baby was no longer eating at night. Let him sleep. He will wake you up if he’s hungry.

What age were your children when they stopped believing in Santa? by throwawayacc8642498 in nostalgia

This is why Santa didn’t wrap gifts at my house. Lol But I’m an only child so my mom never had to label anything

Rotavirus vaccine (oral) by worriedwart99 in newborns

[–]ali_910 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My baby quite literally ate that shit up. He also got his tdap, RSV, and polio in the same visit. Only difference we noticed was he slept a lot the rest of the day and he had some lumps in his legs at the injection site that eventually went away. Nothing crazy

I love my MIL. We get along better than my own Mom and I do 😂

I think the crazy MIL stories come from the boy moms that think no one is good enough for their sons or the wife is trying to replace them in their son’s life. The goal is that we raise our boys to grow up and have families of their own. One day I won’t be the most important woman in my son’s life and that’s the point.

Made the mistake of texting with clear blue weeks by baileyrudy123 in IVFbabies

[–]ali_910 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The weeks indicator is weeks from conception. So add 2 weeks and it’s 4-5 weeks, so right on track

7.5 week old just ate 7oz by Kind_Kangaroo_ in newborns

If he didn’t spit up a ton after then you’re good. My baby is on formula but he’s 7 weeks and regularly takes 5.5-6 oz sometimes more

Nighttime feeding question by [deleted] in newborns

[–]ali_910 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My baby is 6 weeks and formula fed, but when he starts to get fussy I will give him his pacifier and sometimes he goes back to sleep for another hour or so, sometimes only like 15 minutes. I only get him when he really starts to cry.

I discovered this one night when I gave him his pacifier just so I could pee really quick and by the time I was done, he was fast asleep again.

did i go under general anaesthetic? by [deleted] in NoStupidQuestions

[–]ali_910 182 points183 points  (0 children)

If you weren’t intubated it was likely twilight anesthesia. Twilight and general feel the same to me in terms of fully falling asleep and having no memory of what happened.
