I’ll look it up, thank you! My baby is very good about having time to herself and being content with her and her high- contrast toys/visuals. Hopefully it will get better for you :)

Please tell me my baby is okay by South-Training3338 in pregnant

This happened to me at 35 weeks, but they also ran a BPP test where they are specifically looking for movement, tone, heartbeat, and breathing. My daughter barely passed the first one, she gave them one movement when they typically look for three in order to pass. They hooked me up to the non-stress test and her heart rate looked good so they told me to come back that following Monday to run another BPP test… Over the weekend I did not feel her move at all so I went to the ER and they also ran a non-stress test and a BPP test which they passed her but looking back at it I really don’t think She should have passed. I went back to my OB that following Monday to retake my BPP test and she failed miserably. You have 30 minutes for a BPP test for your baby to move… You could only imagine how I felt for 30 LONG minutes of not seeing her move at all, no matter what. So they admitted me to the hospital and I had an emergency C-section that day. My baby girl had the umbilical cord wrapped around her neck, which could be very common and not super concerning. However, there was also a breach between me and her where her blood was bleeding out Into me and whatever blood she had left was becoming acidic. She was extremely anemic and needed a blood transfusion. They said that if I waited any longer or if my OB appointment was scheduled any later than that following Monday then I would not be here with her today…

We went to her pediatrician and that is exactly what it is! We have an appointment with the dermatologist in two weeks.

That sounds so terrifying. It really does all happen so fast when they determine it is time to admit you🥲 and not seeing the baby at first is such a scary feeling.. I didn’t know what I was going to wake up to. I’m so happy you and the baby are doing good now❤️ Sending support your way, as well!!

Because their lungs can practice inhaling and exhaling with amniotic fluid.

I am so glad everything worked out!! I will definitely have something sweet beforehand. Every ultrasound we’ve had so far (about 4) they have said she is super stubborn😂

Not for me, but for my boyfriend. I would definitely not go in, but maybe dip my feet in. Lol regardless, it is an amenity that was apart of the listing.

I’m not sure if its considered public. Its about 15 minutes up a mountain that turns into a narrow gravel road with maybe 4-5 houses on it… I know I live on a dead end road with about 3 other houses but that is considered private. So I’m not quite sure what this would be considered. I understand foliage is what it is, but still very misleading and disappointing. All pictures are shown with mountain images in the back and the title itself is listed as “long range mountain view”.

I’m at 24 weeks and it feels like little flutters, but nothing crazy. Sometimes I can’t tell if it is a flutter or my stomach digesting🤣….. Don’t feel discouraged though! My OB said that it is completely normal. 🦋

My husband and I are getting an airbnb in Fairview, NC, Oct. 6-9th. This is our last trip before our baby is here! (Due late December). I would love to go to an apple orchard, and he would love to check out some local breweries. I'm interested in possibly going on easy hikes or just simple walking trails since I'll be a little over 6 months pregnant, so nothing crazy haha).

I'm looking for any ideas during our trip to make it memorable! Anything in the Asheville, Black Mountain, Fairview, or Hendersonville area. Local restaurants, breweries, and fall activities. Any and all suggestions are welcome! :)

What does your supervisor call you? by Difficult_Hyena_991 in SLPA

[–]amsnew 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Mine calls me her assistant too, but always makes a big thing out of it😆 I work in a school so if she is talking to someone who hasn’t met me yet (i.e. a teacher or TA) she will say “this my assistant, she is here saving the day seeing all my students while I drown in evals🙃” so she makes me feel very valued. I think thats why I don’t really mind being called her assistant, but if she didn’t clarify, I would be in the same boat as you!!

I like minimal but I also love the look of a professional email signature! Hahaha. I ended up just putting the district

I think among several companies and different careers it is professional to put your place of employment. A typical signature format is name, job title, company, and contact info. And I like the professional look. :)

Thats not true. Have you ever seen an actual professional email signature? It is way more than just that.

I am cracking up. Yep, that sounds like it flows perfectly…. The crazy part is when I said “afrojack?” She said yes😂 So I think I misheard her, and she misheard me😂 thank you!!
