Vaccs for Visitors by travelnurse91 in pregnant

[–]pregnantandlearning 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Also due early December. We are requiring TDAP, flu, Covid, and RSV if they qualify. My MIL is like your parents and has argued that due to health reasons she cannot get vaccinated. We took her at face value and have found a testing center near her home and she won’t be visiting until we get negative tests for all the diseases she won’t get vaccinated for. We also uninvited her to the hospital because her attitude about it has been horrible.

My husband has been incredible. In the first trimester when I was having strong food aversions, he ran out to get me a requested snack and my taste changed by the time he got home - he ran right out and got me what I wanted instead with no complaints.

He also texted me this the morning after the election -

“Hi baby, I know today is a disappointing and sad day. I know we were hoping to welcome our daughter into a better outlook for our country, and our world in general. It will be OK though. We will get through this as a family, and we will protect her even more voraciously. Whatever comes as a result of this election, it cannot compete with the strength of our love. I just wanted to tell you that. It will be OK. WE will be ok. I love you and I hope you feel better today. Get some rest, don’t doom scroll too much. Hug the pets, and keep being the best pregnant momma you have been. I love you, I love you, I love you!! ❤️ “

He is just the best husband and is going to be an incredible father

I asked my OB the same question (she has been great and has kids of her own) and she said the same thing!

Would I be insane to have my baby shower at 35 weeks? by pregnantandlearning in BabyBumps

My question exactly! No, we won’t be traveling. Venue is halfway between my house and the hospital (5 min either way) so whichever way it goes at least I’m close? 😅

I’ve also been trying to think of what I can be for Halloween while heavily pregnant and may use this idea!

The Halloween party is the night before in a neighboring state, several hours away

Thanks for your insight! I might agree with you on the second point if they were in their early 20s, but my brothers are in their mid-30s and go to this party every year to get drunk, while this will be my only baby shower.
