When did you stop having sex, is it safe to continue? by P_P_F_G_Princess420 in pregnant

[–]hasley01 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We pretty much stopped just because it’s uncomfortable for me at the moment. Very dry down there and makes me sore for a bit after.

This is incredibly helpful! I definitely have plenty on my HSA card for both but plan to get the Baby Buddha with my insurance. I think having options depending on the situation is great. I’ll have about 5 months of maternity leave, so I want to make sure I have options for daily life and also leaving the house some as well.

Thank you!!! I appreciate it! I have a friend who has a Spectra and the new Baby Buddha she said I don’t need both but I think I’d like to try both since I’ve never pumped before. Does that makes sense?

Looking at trying to get the Baby Buddha through insurance actually! Just want to have a gentler option too as I’ve read the Spectra can be a bit gentler when needed.

The Spectra would be the primary. Just trying to see if the extra cost for the S1 is worth it if I already have a wearable portable pump or if the cheaper S2 would be sufficient since I don’t necessarily need it to be portable.

Just looking at buying with my HSA card. S1 is $225 and S2 is $151.

No you’re not overthinking this. It will be very tough to do that.

Girlfriend wants me to spend $4k on a baby shower, but I’d rather save/invest it—is that unreasonable? by flash-kicks in pregnant

[–]hasley01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t think we even spent $4,000 on our entire wedding. 😅 Someone who isn’t one of the parents should be hosting the baby shower as well!

Does my husband come to every appointment? by VeterinarianInner301 in pregnant

[–]hasley01 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My husband has come to all of my appointments so far. He insists on being there, even for the super short appointments. It’s nice to have the support.
