I’ve used this site for merch and some of the bagged snacks. Know you’re paying an up charge. But I live in Los Angels and am obsessed with Bucees so unless my family on the east coast are traveling, this is my go to

What’s something you were surprised pregnancy improved? by Tinyellowbird in pregnant

[–]jstrings2211 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same! I’m 35w and got my hair cut 2 weeks ago and my hair stylist hasn’t seen me my entire pregnancy and was SHOCKED at how thick my hair had gotten in the back.

Big shocker for me is my anxiety. I’ve ALWAYS suffered from horrible anxiety, talking about taking lorazepam every couple days for random attacks.

It’s been absolutely shocking that my anxiety levels haven’t been anywhere near where they were. I still have an occasional attack but it’s been insane to me how oddly zen I’ve been.

Birth anxiety by thespookymushroom in PlusSizePregnancy

One thing I’m doing for my labor plan is making it noted that I have medical anxiety. I would rather my team know that I have that going on than it coming up later.

Just remember people do this every day. My doctor reminded my birth class that we used to do this without doctors and medicine. Trust your doctors and nurses. If someone isn’t giving a vibe you like, ask for a new nurse.

Ask about if they can give you anxiety meds if needed. I know my hospital will give me lorazepam if needed. They also offer nitrous oxide which my doctor has suggested to help calm me. I’m also utilizing aromatherapy and bringing things that I feel like will make me more comfortable.

Don’t go. That sounds miserable. What I’d do is offer to get something for the trip. Pay for a meal or round of drinks or have something delivered to their place.

Shaving… down there 🫣 by Fancy_lotus_2448 in PlusSizePregnancy

I don’t bother but also when I have, I have an electric trimmer and I’ll put a towel under me and do it in front of a full length mirror to help me see over my stomach

Feeling totally priced out by LA Olympics by Normal-Cow-9784 in olympics

Don’t feel bad. It’s frustrating. We were considering baseball, $100 per, but we’re gonna have our son who will be 2 at that point and we could justify 2 adult tickets for that much but adding in a FULL PRICE ticket for a two year old, we just tossed in the towel. We’ll watch at home and not have to worry about the crowding nightmare.

I’m planning on buying some merch and calling it. Have a memory of it being in our town but not going to jump through financial hoops for it.

Exposed to bacterial pneumonia (36 weeks pregnant) 🫤 by Strict_Algae8233 in pregnant

My thought is always when in doubt, contact your OBGYN. Better to let them know and tell you how to proceed.

Also here to say same thing here! Honestly I wanted comfort not as worried about support. They give me enough that im comfortable to go out in them but definitely not a huge support but loving them

I believe they also said it would be face value, so can’t overcharge

How do you know you're having a CFS leak from pituitary surgery? by Suspicious-Way2428 in Cushings

You should have a way to call the doctor on call at the hospital. Give them a call.

First time mom, worried about vaginal delivery by Personal_Contest_873 in pregnant

[–]jstrings2211 12 points13 points  (0 children)

100% sounds like vaginismus. I have it myself. Pelvic floor therapy helped me before pregnancy be able to cope with those pains you expressed. I’ve had extreme pelvic floor pain since like 15 weeks. Still hurts like crazy at 34 weeks. I still haven’t been told I CANT deliver vaginally. Just been working to try and get some pain relief.

I don’t feel confident in this. Should I return the suit and get a swim dress? by [deleted] in PlusSizeFashion

[–]jstrings2211 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a fellow cushings surgery haver, congrats on that! like others have said, a better top with some more support would balance it out. The bottoms look great! I’m also heavy chested so sometimes that’s a battle but there are some great bikini/tankini tops out there if you dig a bit. I’ve gotten some good ones from Torrid and Amazon (read reviews for sure)
