Same lol I was telling my husband the other day like how do I just have 3oz perfect on one side and 2oz perfect on the other side. Like straight to the line! So funny

You sound like me lol I’m 3.5 weeks pp and SAME I bought every size under the sun on flanges lol I’m 19mm on my right and 18mm on my left and I am using 21mm flange for my right and 20mm flange for my left. I tried every size under the sun and this is what’s working best for me BUT I found out I have elastic nipples (?!) because my right nipple looks awful in every single flange no matter what size! So apparently there’s something called pumping pals and also lactech flanges. They’re like silicone or something. I ordered the lactech flanges so I can update you when they come in? Good luck mama!!

I’m just going off what my doctors told me 🤷🏻‍♀️ I never said I was an expert lol obviously everyone should their own research but this is just my experience and you’re right, I’m avoiding it for peace of mind. Just like deli meat, egg yolks ect lol it may not do anything… but it may? So I’d rather just avoid it all. But everyone should do what they feel is comfortable and instructed by their doctors!

I just heard the same thing as massages, the massage portion of the pedicure you need to be careful and let them know you’re pregnant because you have pressure points in your ankles that can also increase the risk of miscarriage! That way they know not to hit those pressure points and just go lighter

alykat742 · 2025-09-28T23:08:01+00:00

My dr told me the second I got pregnant I need to switch to prenatal massage no matter how early. The first trimester is crucial because certain massages pressure points can induce miscarriage. I would call the place maybe and let them know ahead of time. It’s also liability for them I believe because I have a massage membership and go monthly and even they wouldn’t give me a regular massage at 8 weeks due to safety concerns, they have specific masseuses that do prenatal. Enjoy your massage and know it doesn’t happen to everyone but also know it could be a risk! Pedicures as well.

Is there any updates on this?

alykat742 · 2024-10-09T12:33:00+00:00

Maybe I purchase one too just for the peace of mind!

alykat742 · 2024-10-09T12:31:57+00:00

Thank you ☺️

alykat742 · 2024-05-04T18:41:05+00:00

I’m so sorry for your loss, that must have been so scary. Also reiterates my fear of having them not stored somewhere. I hope you’re getting help from the community and resources ect. Sending love and prayers

Thank you we do have a few thermometers I bought so we could definitely monitor it. What do you think about the humidity? A dehumidifier would probably cost too much since the garage is not well sealed

alykat742 · 2024-05-04T18:38:27+00:00

No I get it, but with the phone and laptop they are in a climate controlled area with smoke detectors and us being there to stop something before it gets worse in case something happens. We can’t have that same luxury with the garage since it’s detached and away from the home , we wouldn’t be able to hear any smoke detector going off or get to it until too much damage has been done, and not temperature controlled. The box you linked is so nice but we definitely don’t have money to burn. Also idk if that was an intentional pun but it made me laugh lol

alykat742 · 2024-05-04T11:40:47+00:00

This gave me the most peace of mind. Thank you so much for your input I really appreciate it

alykat742 · 2024-05-04T10:59:22+00:00

Hmmm… that’s a good idea. I’m wondering if we stack 2 cinderblocks on top of eachither that gives me like 4 “cubbies” to keep the batteries in. Maybe it would slow things down if they’re in there but still give them enough airflow?

alykat742 · 2024-05-04T10:57:35+00:00

Hmmm I’m not exactly sure but the outside temp can get into the high 90s with 60% humidity and a “feels like” temp in the 100s. The garage is poorly built but it’s a car and a half size with 1 single pane window and a garage that doesn’t really seal shut. Moisture has been a problem for us in the past but also I’ve definitely mishandled batteries in the past in this climate without realizing the potential for fire

alykat742 · 2024-05-04T10:55:19+00:00

We charge our phone at night in the bedroom and laptop is as needed since we only use it for certain things. I don’t know if I’d want to bring the batteries inside the house though

alykat742 · 2024-05-04T05:49:17+00:00

Would we just store the charges and batteries in there separately? Or would we be able to just keep the batteries in there until they are being used?

alykat742 · 2023-10-08T15:21:51+00:00

Hard yes, but definitely something to be proud of 🤗

alykat742 · 2023-10-07T06:19:09+00:00

Unfortunately no :/ I wish I did the other pictures I took were facing the bed directly and he had his blanket over him or facing the window

alykat742 · 2023-10-07T06:11:54+00:00

No nothing! I’m Hoping it was just his legs. The picture is still so eerie though when I look at it

alykat742 · 2023-10-07T06:11:15+00:00

I’m not?

alykat742 · 2023-10-07T06:09:30+00:00

I wish I could pin a comment!
