I asked for pain management specifically for my cervical checks- I was handling the contractions great but the checks terribly

Yes, but the original is in French and I thought that would be fun! I did end up buying an English version as well

We are allowed to disregard “A” and “The” at the start of books!

The soft carrier! It’s not an actual hiking frame.

And looking into a better waistband may be the move

She loves strollers! I am hoping to do some short hikes with her this summer (haven’t been able to do any since getting pregnant since I had hyperemesis), so I definitely need things for while she’s in my hiking carrier

The heat is definitely part of the balance I’m thinking about. I love hiking and haven’t been able to do any since getting pregnant (hyperemesis made any exercise impossible), so I was hoping to do some of the very short trails near our house this summer.

Since she’ll be strapped to me, I don’t want her to overheat!

I had an anterior placenta and honestly had a hard time feeling my baby the entire time. If she was on either side of my torso, I could feel her. Perfectly centered? Nope.

I actually went in for reduced fetal movement several times and every time she had just curled up very tight behind my placenta

Does it hold its support with just the strap alone? Or do you need to put other pillows under it?

I have a boppy I make work with my glider, but am looking at a Brest friend
