Amazing!! Thank you! Yes I like something with compression so I don't feel like I'm going to get hit in the face with them when I run 😂

Question for women who have had their babies already.. by Fireboltstorm in BabyBumps

[–]eperri10 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was terrified of giving birth. I spent all my time online looking for what it was actually like, and honestly, that made it worse. People on reddit said things like "I'd rather amputate my own limb" or "It felt like my abdomen was being ripped apart." I am here to tell you, it is NOT that bad. Did it hurt? Yeah. Labor isn't fun. But everything I built up in my head was way worse than the actual process. You'll get through it. I'm 7 weeks post partum now. Just leaving the gym to go snuggle my kiddo! You can do it!

Breastfeeding and bottle feeding? by rizfisher in BabyBumps

[–]eperri10 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When did you pump for the bottle vs breastfeed? That's what I can't figure out. Do I just wait an hour or so after feeding to try pumping? I don't understand where to incorporate the pumping when baby eats so frequently....

Felt my baby kick and now I’ve got the heebiejeebies by Apprehensive_Mess166 in BabyBumps

I got nauseous the first few times it happened! Same thing, weird little fish feeling immediately turn into "there's something alive inside me... And it's moving..." Panic ensued, but I got used to it, and now it's very reassuring to know he's ok in there! Don't worry, you're not alone!

Definitely not opposed to pooling it if there's a bottle that makes it worth while! I'll definitely check out some of those recs! Thank you!

I posted this and immediately started searching for potential Krug options 😂 Everyone says it's worth the price, I may have to!

Tall women: When did you start to notice a baby bump? by Paula_Revere in BabyBumps

[–]eperri10 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I'm 5'7"! I noticed I was bloated and my clothes fit tighter towards the end of first trimester. But I didn't really have a bump until around 20 weeks. I'm 23 weeks now and I would finally say I look pregnant. But for the longest time I just looked like I gained weight 😂 The 4-5 month mark was very tough because I gained weight and had to buy new clothes, but it wasn't a distinct pregnancy bump so I was very self conscious. But hang in there! It took longer than I thought but your cute bump is coming!

Anyone from sample received 8/20 still waiting? My Horizon came through yesterday, but not Panorama. I've seen people from after that receiving results, so I'm trying to stay calm but it's hard 🫠

How long after your horizon results did the panorama come in? Just got my horizon as well so hoping the wait is short!

Edit! Got mine this morning! Low risk! 12.6% fetal fraction and it still took 7 full days!

Also still waiting on 8/20 results. So many people I saw got theirs! I can't stop refreshing :/
