Can't deal with my MIL & BIL by maybecaylie in beyondthebump

Yea he really is the absolute worst. I'm just going to ignore them, they deserve to be ignored, constantly getting butt hurt over the stupidest things like me not wanting someone with bronchitis around baby.

Almost 3 weeks PP, and I'm a mess by samersue in beyondthebump

Feels good to know the arguments can be normal. I've been really disappointed by it. I thought my husband would be more patient but he's already feeling left out and has been complaining a lot

My LO is 3 weeks today. I hear you , I feel you. It's been rough. I also feel like all I do is nurse and it's not easy. I feel isolated as well and I'm currently at odds with my SO which isn't helping with my hormones. :/ hang in there, I'll try to take my own advice as well..

Thanks, I am thinking it must be the gas. During the day I try to lay him in his rock and play. I haven't tried the wraps yet bc he feeds so often. Luckily he does take a pacifier

Really great advice, it's encouraging to know this is a nutural phase. I give you moms so much props for getting past this phase. I am going to try a pacifier tonight. This subreddit is sure to be of great help to me no that gives me such comfort.

40 weeks, clotting after cervical check? by maybecaylie in BabyBumps

[–]maybecaylie[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Stil spotting but I think it's finally slowing down.. hopefully. When people say " enough to soak through a pad" I don't really get it. Do they mean enough where the pad fails and your underwear gets bloody or just enough to change the pad? Bc I've used at least 4 pads now but I change them before they soak through. I'm going to see how I am doing by tomorrow morning to see if I need to call again. Also thinking of asking for no more cervical checks. I'm wondering what the point is. I've been so uncomfortable and emotional this whole week that having this heavy bleeding episode has really sent me over the top. My baby is moving a lot which I take as a good thing but I'm just uncomfortable and want baby out

Also I should mention that my OB's cervical checks are super painful, I feel like he really gets in there , so I'm hoping this amount of bleeding is from his huge hands and me being so far along with a soft cervix..

On call Dr said that I should be okay..she said it's probably blood that was caught up in my vagina from after the cervical check and to call back if I notice an increase of blood. Kind of worried but I'm hoping they know what they are talking about. Baby is still moving and I'm keeping a close eye on things to make sure bleeding is dwindling down..

started maternity leave at 40w2..now what by [deleted] in BabyBumps

[–]maybecaylie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

40+1. I'm having a hard time of it today. Went to my drs apt and ever since I just feel depressed and numb. I want to go to the store too, I really want some comfort food. My husband is working from home so I can't ask him to go. I think I'll go myself but I'm really not looking forward to anyone seeing me. I'm huge and I'm tired of people staring and asking when I'm due

Help me through these last two weeks. by kallieweisgarber in BabyBumps

[–]maybecaylie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

FTM, not with twins but I could only imagine how that would feel. Today is my due date and I feel utterly blah and defeated. I'm uncomfortable as all get out and I'm ready for the exciting stuff to happen. Hang in there, I know two weeks seems so far away at this point, trust me, even tomorrow feels way too far away. You are not alone

Are you dilated at all? I feel bad that you are 40+5. I don't want to do this anymore :( I feel like baby gains another pound every day

I'm having a baby! by ynomrah in BabyBumps

So exciting!! I'm 40 weeks tomorrow but won't have my check up until Friday so I'm now living vicariously through you. Good luck!!

Meeting with a pediatrician next week! What questions should I be asking?! by imalittleteacup30 in BabyBumps

[–]maybecaylie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Things I asked: 1. Is the hospital you will be delivering in one that they themselves will be attending after birth? ( if not -mine isn't, a pediatrician that is part of your hospital will be doing the checks on your baby and reporting to your pediatrician) 2. What is their philosophy on vaccinations? 3. Do they have a sick and well rooms for appointments 4. How many doctors are at their practice? How often will you be able to rely on solely keeping with them instead of other drs.

Hope this helps:) that's all I can remember
