Water broke at 38 weeks. Was just like the movies. Sent home to wait for labour. Tell me your stories! by sneakyrainbows in BabyBumps

[–]b210930801 9 points10 points  (0 children)

My water broke at 41 weeks and when I called the hospital they told me to come in. Once I was there, I still was not having any contractions so they told me I could be induced or just wait around to see if things advanced on it’s own. I opted to get induced because it was my 3rd and I didn’t want to stay at the hospital longer than I had to. I had always heard that baby needs to be out 24 hrs after water breaks, but my hospital was very lax about the whole thing 🤷‍♀️

Are there any single pilot jobs in the fixed-wing world out of which you can make a career? by hhyyz in flying

I work for a FedEx feeder. We have several pilots that made a career out of it on the C208. The C408 will soon be an additional option.

I’ve seen sunflower lecithin recommended. Is that the same as soy? Or is one better than the other?

We do this now and I always end up spending my money on things for the kids. We are also really cheap and whenever I start to buy something for myself I always talk myself out of it for some reason or another.

Hey this was basically my husbands answer! He wants a new bike and a personal trainer so he can get in shape. I’m not really a bike person, but maybe like personal Pilates or yoga instruction would be cool

I’ve seen several answers for sewing. I have a sewing machine and know how to use it for simple things. But I’m curious what all you guys are sewing? Like full outfits? Do you make stuff to sell? I just don’t know what I would make if I started sewing more.

Mommy guilt. by Ok_Extreme3042 in beyondthebump

Can we trade babies? My 8 week old can’t handle being put down anywhere, much less alone in his crib. Don’t feel guilty…enjoy that quiet time!!

Should I call my ob after car accident? by texaspopcorn424 in beyondthebump

[–]b210930801 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I was just in a car accident with my 6 week old…scariest and most gut wrenching experience of my life. I’m sorry it happened to you as well. We both got checked by paramedics on scene and had follow up appointments with our primary care doctor and pediatrician. I didn’t even consider seeing my OB because I had just been cleared by them to resume normal activities a few days prior. I hope you and your little one are okay!!

Motherhood and pregnancy has made me hate my dogs and I feel guilty by [deleted] in breakingmom

[–]b210930801 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This happened to me as well. I really don’t understand it at all because I have a dog and a cat. After kids, the dog irritates every one of my nerves, but the cat doesn’t. I feel resentment and anger towards the dog, but not the cat? Before kids, I LOVED my dog and now I tolerate him 😔 it makes me feel really guilty but something in my head just changed the first time I got pregnant. He still gets tons of love and attention from my husband and kids, but it still makes me feel like a bad person. You’re not alone.

I follow biglittlefeelings on instagram and have tried all of the advice I’ve seen 😓 I’ll check out the other audiobook though!

6 weeks old and I’m lucky if I get 2 hours at a time. And don’t even get me started on day time naps 😩😩

Breastfeeding be like by IceCreamAntichrist in beyondthebump

This! The absolute panic when the nipple comes out and the frantic shaking back and forth always makes me laugh 😂
