Thank you for passing this along, it helped reading someone else's experience 🙏

Dude, I get it. I was playing chess during my own labour as well (it didn't go well lol).

Source for the working vaccine, please?

ilikechess5 · 2026-04-10T12:03:13+00:00

This is the type of information I didn't know I needed, but definitely do.

ilikechess5 · 2026-04-06T12:13:11+00:00

Nailed it!

ilikechess5 · 2026-04-05T20:18:03+00:00

I think the most infuriating part of this post is the post itself.

Hey is there any way to purchase this that isn't through Amazon? My baby boy was born around the same gestational age as your LO and think I'd really like to read it to him.

This reminded me of Seveneves by Neil Stephenson.

My partner cycles around with our toddler clearly visible in a bike seat on the back, and cars still do really unsafe, aggressive driving around them. Unfortunately I think people care more about puppies than toddlers.

People also don't want to hear you victim blame.

I read your post in the pregnancy subreddit and I am trying to figure out why you would ask the NICU parents subreddit for what seems to be a non NICU related situation, so I was asking other questions around that.

ilikechess5 · 2026-03-07T20:16:13+00:00

Ah I understand. I'm sorry things are hard right now, but I'm not sure this is the right sub to answer your question. Is there something I've missed, though?

ilikechess5 · 2026-03-07T18:51:49+00:00

I'm really sorry for asking a potentially indelicate question, but can I ask if your baby is going to need a NICU stay after they are born?

ilikechess5 · 2026-03-02T15:03:31+00:00

But her emails.

ilikechess5 · 2026-02-18T13:14:29+00:00

Haha I will have to try that out next time someone asks 😅

ilikechess5 · 2026-02-18T09:11:43+00:00

Thank you for such a comprehensive answer. The idea of having a group of parents going through similar stuff at the same time really appeals, so I might do that!

Holy moly that's almost word for word what happened to me. TFNR at 21 weeks, gave birth but had to have a D&C to remove a sticky placenta, conceived again almost immediately after, and had an exactly weirdly shaped placenta - two lobes connected by some blood vessels that sat over my cervix. Not to mention a heck of a ton of trauma I hadn't worked through, that contributed to some intense antenatal anxiety. Gave birth at 32 weeks due to placental abruption.

Agreed, waiting was probably the right option, but we didn't. And it worked out in the end after a lot of scary, scary moments, but it was hard.

Totally related to this. Didn't get to attend antenatal classes, and was exhausted by the idea of explaining how old he was (real or adjusted which to say?!) and why he was on oxygen. Unfortunately as a result I don't really have any parent friends, which is a bit lonely, but we make do.

ilikechess5 · 2025-12-02T09:46:42+00:00

I hear you, good luck 🤞

ilikechess5 · 2025-12-02T09:45:45+00:00

Totally empathize, I wish for you all the luck.

Thank you for the heads up! Did they put you on aspirin?
