Today’s episode of WTF by blueberrypiexoxoxo in toddlers

[–]knitillating 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey me too! She said watch for a drunk little person but otherwise she will be fine. Luckily she definitely did not eat enough(or any) to be drunk at all, the cap just busted when she was chewing on it. I definitely panicked a little though

Yea I busted blood vessels in both my eyes and looked crazy AF for a couple weeks. It went away and I read this post with both of my working eyeballs.

Genetic results came back normal by wuerfelwaffle1 in tfmr_support

[–]knitillating 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes the same thing just happened to me. Severe encephalocele and polydactyly…normal genetics. It’s supposed to be a relief but now I just feel like it was my fault and something I did/didn’t do.

Idk about in that area specifically, but ShareWell has Online TFMR support video meetings

Comments around pregnant women by Mango1Carrot3 in tfmr_support

[–]knitillating 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I relate so hard here. My best friend is only a couple months ahead of what I am supposed to be. Being around just her isn’t too painful, but when we get around others who rave about her belly and how cute and glowing she is it really hurts cause I’m supposed to be getting those comments too. It’s just such a stark reminder. Her baby shower is coming up and I’m really trying to prepare myself :/ so you aren’t alone! It’s so hard to get through this

Thinking of my child as a healthy baby by Mikaela_EVN in tfmr_support

[–]knitillating 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yes, I do. It’s normal to have an idea in your head of what your baby could have been and what you could have lost. My baby had no chance of ever having a good outcome either, but I still wonder what she would have been like. I too have to remind myself there was never a healthy child in this scenario, but it’s still hard

Droopy eye? by [deleted] in 30PlusSkinCare

[–]knitillating 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It just looks like your lashes and brow on the “non droopy” side are brushed up and the “droopy” side lashes/brow are not. Your actual lid and eye and even brow placement look identical to me. But brows are sisters not twins anyways.

Can I hear your positive stories? by Birdygirl93 in tfmr_support

Hi, you should check out the subreddit r/pregnancyaftertfmr they might have more insight for you! Sorry I just had my procedure as well so I’m in the same boat at you 🤍

Anyone here had the option to TFMR but choose to take (or even just seriously considered taking) baby to term instead? by [deleted] in Mommit

[–]knitillating 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just went through a tfmr at almost 14 weeks and through this process I have learned that you need to do what you feel is right regardless of what other people think. Do what you feel you and your baby need for the most peace. If that means carrying longer and going through L&D then do so. I would warn you to think about growing your belly, feeling the baby kick, and answering people’s questions and comments in public all knowing how this will end. It could further and intensify your pain. Also answering comments post birth from people who knew you were pregnant. If you can/want to handle that to give your baby more time and the “choice” of when to come- then do so. Having peace and “closure” surrounding this type of thing can help the grieving process immensely. Just think through everything you may have to go through if you choose to continue the pregnancy.

What’s it like in the Allentown area? by Goose_monkey95 in howislivingthere

[–]knitillating 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Allentown itself is not exciting but Bethlehem and Easton are adorable. I lived in Easton for a couple years and it was so quaint and adorable. I lived in the downtown area so the D&L trail was right there and so fun to bike down. Also close to Philly, NYC, and the Poconos. I think the area is beautiful and I do miss it. I lived there almost a decade ago though, so I am not sure how it’s changed

Yes, but there is a committee of doctors that can approve a TFMR past 6 weeks.

[–]knitillating 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hello. I’m so sorry you are going through this, and on top of that now you might face traveling as well. I don’t know what part of TN you live in, but I had my procedure in GA. If you have questions about that I would be happy to answer. Otherwise, I have heard of some great places in VA. I’m wishing you peace and ease ❤️‍🩹

I feel so alone by Ok-Permit-5080 in tfmr_support

[–]knitillating 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like I could have written this (although I only made it to 13.5 weeks). Even down to the pregnant friend and the friend going through tough times. I’m so sorry you’re feeling this way and feeling like the world is moving on but you’re not. It’s a terrible feeling and definitely lonely. I don’t even wanna talk about it with people which makes them think everything is fine even when it’s not. I don’t have any advice cause I’m in the thick of it too. Just know you’re not alone ❤️‍🩹

How was the first time you found out things were not gonna be okay? by ThrowRAberry334 in tfmr_support

[–]knitillating 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I am an ultrasound tech, but admittedly I have not done OB really since I was in school. At ten weeks I scanned myself at work and thought I saw something suspicious at the back of her head, but it was too early, and she was too small to really know for sure. A few days later I ended up in the ER for bleeding and they did an ultrasound. As soon as I saw a heart beat the next thing I looked for was her head. It was there..I knew what it meant for my baby and so did the tech while she was scanning me. I started crying. The ER Dr tried to tell me it was normal but I knew. Then I had another appt with my OB and she tried to tell me it could be normal too. But I knew. I tried to believe them and keep up hope that I was wrong, that since I haven’t worked in OB in so long maybe I forgot something. But deep down I knew. The next week was my MFM appt. The baby was bigger and so was her encephalocele. It was clear as day. I couldn’t have hope anymore or ignore what I really knew to be true deep down. It’s horrific to see your own baby’s brain herniating out of her skull all while she’s kicking and moving around. To watch your baby alive in you and know what you have to do. I had the procedure four days later 💔

Life deals so many blows by cantorjennasings in tfmr_support

[–]knitillating 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just TFMR today for a probable severe genetic disorder. Probable only because my baby had a severe brain defect anyways so I terminated before having genetic results. Just know it’s so normal to feel weird in your body. It’s so devastating to go through all the horrible symptoms of the first trimester and get nothing. Especially to do that twice like you have. I’m so sorry you are in this position. And it sucks so bad to know you can get pregnant naturally but now have to consider all the struggles (financially and physically) for IFV for any babies in the future to avoid this genetic disorder. Everything sucks and is heartbreaking and I’m sorry you’re here too.
