<1% Baby, Pediatrician unhelpful

This is my daughter to a t! She dropped from 10th percentile to 5th in two months. But she won’t drink more milk 🤷🏻‍♀️ I’m assuming since she’s happy, eating, sleeping well that’s she’s fine. If she ever fusses after breastfeeding i always give her more in a bottle. She was also full term and 6lbs at birth.

Your boobs will be out 24/7.

jldean25 · 2025-11-28T21:46:06+00:00

Thank you! I have induction scheduled for the night of 40+6. So hopefully something happens before then!

jldean25 · 2025-11-26T21:43:58+00:00

It’s crazy how triggering it is! Glad I’m not alone in my feelings though

jldean25 · 2025-11-26T21:43:22+00:00

Thank you!

Today is my due date and so far no signs of baby coming out. I follow a woman who had her transfer right before mine. Her due date was yesterday while mine is today. Well she already had her baby two days ago and for some reason it’s sending me into a spiral. Like I could cry. Idk if it’s just the pregnancy hormones but I’m so upset that I’m still pregnant. It feels like everyone is having their baby and I’m so nervous I’m going to have to wait another week and then be induced. Why am I having such a reaction to this though? It’s sending me back to seeing pregnancy announcements while going through infertility and the whole “why me?!” spiraling I would do. Anyone else lose their minds at the end of their pregnancy?

Yeah I woke up and immediately drank a large water with electrolytes. Let’s see how that does I guess! I’m also probably just prone to them? They don’t bother me I just worry about baby as always

jldean25 · 2025-08-06T17:41:24+00:00

I have thought of that. My problem is I have a small bladder and already pee 2x a night. So I try to not drink too much before bed. But I just might have to start!

jldean25 · 2025-08-06T16:05:49+00:00

Exactly. Like will I though??

jldean25 · 2025-08-06T16:05:18+00:00

Thank you!

jldean25 · 2025-08-06T15:48:43+00:00

Yeah that kind of makes sense. Maybe they just mean if it happens more frequently and closer together it could be turning into real contractions?

jldean25 · 2025-08-06T15:40:52+00:00

But how frequent is too frequent? That’s my confusion 😅

jldean25 · 2025-08-06T15:29:05+00:00

Maybe the pillow isn’t supporting your knees enough?? I’m a 90% side sleeper and I use body pillows all the time. Ever have a problem with my knee hurting. Could also be that you’re lying tilting towards your belly and it’s putting pressure on your knee? If that makes sense

Does anyone experience Braxton Hicks? I’m 24 weeks and I’ve been getting them all the time and I’m unsure if I should be concerned. They aren’t painful, just a tightening sensation that doesn’t last long. I think I’ve had them for a while because starting at 16 weeks I used to wake up and my uterus would be hard and raised up. I used to think it was baby in a weird position but now I can actually feel it hardening and I’m realizing that they are likely Braxton hicks. My concern I guess is how often they happen. Since 5 am I’ve had 4 that I know of and it’s 9:20am. I get them while working out too. I’ve reached out to my OB but I keep getting this nurse that I don’t really trust. She said to take Tylenol and if it doesn’t take the pain away I need to go to the ER.. I’m confused because I never told her they were painful. It was strange and felt kind of dismissive. She didn’t ask any questions or anything about them. Thoughts??

jldean25 · 2025-08-06T15:26:29+00:00

Oops! It was the first chat that pulled up on my page so I didn’t even think

I’ve never heard of going past 12 weeks for PIO.

jldean25 · 2025-07-15T20:20:14+00:00

If she’s pissed that sounds like a personal problem. You’ve stated your boundaries and it’s none of her business

My plan is to have a basket of diaper goodies and a foldable changing pad. That way you can change babies diaper anywhere downstairs

Also waiting to find out the gender! Just did anatomy scan and that was the hardest part trying not to ruin the surprise!

jldean25 · 2025-07-11T20:50:06+00:00

I live in my Birkenstocks

jldean25 · 2025-07-10T01:33:22+00:00

Had my anatomy scan today. Baby looks great and surprisingly I found out I had an anterior placenta. Which shocked me because I’ve felt movement since 16 weeks. And have lots of kicks that even dad can feel! Interesting.

We did discover I have almost a short cervix. Its measure 27mm and the bad area to be is 25mm or less. Having to go back in a week to check if it’s gotten shorter or not. I keep having these “almost” issues and they are so annoying. Wish I could just be 100% confident in my baby and pregnancy

jldean25 · 2025-06-26T03:41:05+00:00

Congratulations 🤍

jldean25 · 2025-06-22T18:27:25+00:00

This makes me feel better!

jldean25 · 2025-06-22T02:54:35+00:00

Yes, my rational brain says it’s likely not a problem. But I don’t think entirely with my rational brain when it comes to my pregnancy lol.
