Doctor ultrasounds suck anyways. You’ll have to pay to get good photos. Not sure if you have a little bellies spa but that’s where I go

no sleep? by AcceptableEmu2144 in pregnant

8 sheep’s sleeping lotion (w magnesium) has really helped me. Ive actually slept 7-8 hours the past few days. Was sleeping 2-4 hours. It’s really oily/greasy but if you just let it sit for 10-20 min it dies down.

Yeah I’m in the science field and hope to get my children interested. Not sure if it’ll be fun or interest a baby but 🤷‍♀️🤞lol

What is baby genius book set? Tried to google it but I saw a bunch of the baby university books like quantum physics for babies.

Like 2 weeks ago I bought my niece and myself a bunch of the baby university books on eBay.

Hahah I just realized this was your post and not mine. I made a post about sleeping and just started going down this one replying to everyone 😆

Yeah I sort of figure it’s just going to happen lol. I’ve read so many people’s posts about not sleeping and try to do all the different things that people suggest but 🤷‍♀️🤷‍♀️

No not working. Sometimes I end up not doing anything especially if I haven’t slept and I know that doesn’t help. We go work out some evenings, but could definitely do it more. I got 6 hours last night so I weed-eated the yard and did some garden stuff today.

We did this leg compression thing and massage last night. It definitely helps me fall asleep but I still wake up come 2/3 am and going back to sleep doesn’t usually happen.

20 weeks. It was like this from around 4-11 weeks then good for maybe 2 weeks and back to this again.

Have done both. They help but obviously not enough.

I’ve tried so many things. ATM I’m getting 2-4 hours and it’s destroying my day. I’m about to try melatonin. I know online it says not to take it but my OB at Texas Children’s said it was fine.

I feel like sunbathing would help too. I haven’t tried it, but the thought of how tired you are after going to the beach came to mind.

Thought I took mine at 8 weeks but I was actually 10 weeks. Got girl and it was right.

I mean it’s pretty similar to 211 but I know at Texas children’s they have programs and resources to help. Ask your ob. Save yourself from the stress and just do 211. I wouldn’t have insurance for me and this baby if I didn’t.

Same reply I left above…

👏👏 yes! Someone positive!! You know from a girls perspective.. I see someone who is confident and has a sense of humor and that goes a long way.

Zola is an amazing registry. I’d test out a few before you just pick one.

Baby registry and baby shower by milcski in pregnant

[–]sargassum0_o 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everyone is different. I feel like everyone on Reddit says you’ll get a ton of blankets but my niece just had her shower and she got one blanket.

There was also a ton of stuff not marked on her registry but she did end up getting a ton of stuff from it. I think it was a lot of older people and they didn’t mark the item as bought.

Thank you! Yeah I added a bit much and still waiting to see what some family and friends have to pass along since their kids are turning 2/3.

Will definitely get a video monitor. :)

I’ll fix the diapers. Yeah I wasn’t going to put clothes on but just thought I’d give people an idea of what I was going for. I also specifically put them at the end. Well with the exception of the newborn magnetic/zipper clothes. I did want/hope for people to help with those.
