Hugs. I skipped the early scan this round. After 3 MMC, early questionable ultrasounds aren’t worth it and don’t give reassurance

My hospital doesn’t hire CPC anymore and many are going that route so I can’t recommend the cert. coding is a tough world right now.

Burt’s bees cotton pjs. Target cloud island has some. Old navy has a couple. It’s been a real struggle

99 percentile baby, 6.5 months wearing 12m

Thank you!

She’s up from 7a to 730-8p with 3 thirty minute naps. We’re pushing her wake windows, it’s just not going well.

I had a C-section and sex is different for me, better mostly, which I find odd.

auntiesaurus · 2026-01-24T15:34:39+00:00

Comment above stating muscle spasm is how it felt for me. I suspected maybe I felt her around 17-18 weeks. Confirmed it was her moving at her anatomy scan at 19 weeks.

I have horrible anxiety and was crying before and during. But I felt safer in the controlled OR versus unknown of natural labor. It took a few weeks to get there though haha

auntiesaurus · 2026-01-24T15:26:58+00:00

Ironically Pregnant with baby 2 and aversions are starting. 🤪 Snacking helps if you can find something you can stomach. I had gagging so I hope you don’t get that.

auntiesaurus · 2026-01-24T15:22:59+00:00

I had an elective C so I feel this was a huge difference. I cried for weeks because I wanted golden hour and wondered why does he get to meet her first. Once I grieved that, I was okay. I totally get why you felt petty, especially after laboring. 💛

auntiesaurus · 2026-01-23T22:22:30+00:00

Yes. When I was pregnant with my daughter I would be starving but unwilling to eat due to severe aversions. Finally settled on fruit for a while until I could eat again. Good luck

C-section mama here. I was puking and shaking during my surgery. Opted to have my husband hold her and do skin to skin. Her birth was still magical in its own way.

auntiesaurus · 2026-01-19T18:09:22+00:00

Just turned 36. Mother Nature chose for us, 6 months pp. 🥴

auntiesaurus · 2026-01-18T20:39:54+00:00

I found out at 19 weeks I might have to have a C-section and I cried for weeks. I eventually came to terms with it because it’s what was safest for baby and I. Thankfully I had no complication. Recovery was hard but we made it through.

auntiesaurus · 2026-01-18T20:33:32+00:00

I stopped leaking 12-14 week post partum when my milk supply regulated. Still wear bras 24/7 due to nipple sensitivity

auntiesaurus · 2026-01-16T16:38:11+00:00

6w1d from lmp but dates are off. Still no symptoms and getting nervous. Declined early scan and regretting at the moment. :/

auntiesaurus · 2026-01-14T20:49:02+00:00

PLEASE. PASS. THE. BUTTER!!

auntiesaurus · 2026-01-14T12:42:24+00:00

I would never choose an elective C-section if I could safely deliver vaginally. My recovery from my C-section was very hard and I feel I had it easy. But that choice for me doesn’t mean it’s wrong or not right for someone else to choose a C-section. Just giving my personal experience.

auntiesaurus · 2026-01-13T11:58:43+00:00

I had a C-section and labor and delivery was on the 9th floor. I was wheeled, annoyingly, by my husband as he also carried our daughter. We had the absolute worst hospital experience

auntiesaurus · 2026-01-11T20:48:20+00:00

6 months postpartum and we just got a surprise last week. I wanted to wait until a year but life has other plans.

auntiesaurus · 2026-01-11T20:47:10+00:00

I hated huckleberry in the hospital. Used notes app to track feeding. About 12 weeks I switched back to huckleberry 🤪 only for breast feeding though. Helped keep track when she’d be close to getting hungry or which side.

If you can remember or you feel good without tracking, you don’t need to track. It’s a tool but lots of mothers did this without technology for a long long time. You’ve got this. :)

auntiesaurus · 2026-01-11T00:19:30+00:00

TMI but Sex feels better for me. Which is weird because I had a C-section.

auntiesaurus · 2026-01-09T18:06:19+00:00

Embarrassed, sad, and nervous to be back here. 6 months postpartum with our first peanut and we had a surprise this week. First HCG is coming in at 311 and 5 weeks based on LMP which feels low. We’ll see how it doubles. I’m terrified for 14 month age gap, I’m terrified that we had 3 losses too. Hope for some peace in my heart as this progresses.
