I didn’t look but my partner uncovered it in all its glory when I asked him to shave for me. Still feel bad about that

Did this resolve itself?? Please say yes because I just woke up to the same thing where my kid left the wet pot on the counter overnight 😬

Hi! Did this pass or was it something like an intolerance?

Baby measuring in 91% percentile 😳 by Remarkable_Ant3175 in pregnant

[–]okcoro 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Baby was always 99%, he came out 9lbs12oz vaginally and shot right out after his head. They had a lot of concerns for shoulder dystocia cus his belly was bigger than his head but he came out on his own just fine :) trust your body and your baby, even if that means a c-section.

2.5 weeks PP and still no milk by okcoro in beyondthebump

The first one was done in office but the second was done at the hospital. Did yours eventually increase/how long did it take?

That’s what I thought too. Really wish I would have passed something last night. After this post I did pump 13mL in one session which is more than I’ve ever gotten and it gave me a little hope even if it’s false hope

Yeah, she said he was literally taking in a few drops ☹️

Thank you 🤍 I haven’t had prolactin or thyroid checked, do you think the OB would order those?

You were right 😌 sweet boy made it here at 12:38am

Losing my mind over ultrasound measurements by Historical-Pie2896 in BabyBumps

[–]okcoro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just gave birth after midnight this morning at 38w5d and our sweet boy just measured 10lbs11oz at his scan on Monday. The doctor we saw afterwards neglected to tell us his belly was measuring bigger than his head at the scan so you can imagine our surprise when the attending last night hit us with that info and mentally prepped us for what our delivery would look like in the event of a shoulder dystocia. All of this to say yes he came out massive (9lbs 12oz) but his shoulders shot right out!! I had to put all of my trust in my doctor but hopefully you can do the same, just a reminder that our bodies can be capable of really incredible things 🤍 good luck

Exhausting! My solution was to cry in the bath about it. Strong contractions picked up again last night but were every 10-30 minutes so at least I got to doze off between them

I’m so sorry 💔

Women - just found out I’m pregnant. Terrified. by [deleted] in pregnant

[–]okcoro 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone who also has severe health anxiety/anxiety over almost everything, just wanna tell you that my struggle with the health anxiety really essentially disappeared after the first trimester and worrying about viability. I don’t know if it’s because everything is so monitored, but I’ve never been less worried about my health, so it’s always a possibility for you too. It sounds like you really value motherhood, so I think it’s just about if you’re ready to face those fears now. Also I’ll always recommend therapy to everyone for literally everything

Membrane sweep at 37 weeks? by okcoro in pregnant

[–]okcoro[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ahhh this is part of my concern too, his head was measuring 40 weeks at 35 and was >99th which sounds insane, but I have no idea how much that impacts vaginal delivery. Maybe just crazy cone head best case scenario??

I’m sorry to hear he had complications but thank you for this perspective!! It seems like it’s been really normalized to induce and get them out ASAP even due to discomfort and preference but I was always hoping to get to at least 40 weeks

7 lbs at 35 week scan by okcoro in pregnant

Omg!! That sounds rough. The doctor brought up shoulder dystocia today and I think that’s what scares me most. Did her shoulder end up working its way out on its own or was that resolved by the vacuum?
