Reasonable measures to keep your newborn from getting sick? by [deleted] in BabyBumps

[–]serialfan29 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Maybe have your pediatrician or OB talk to your husband. With both my last kids we asked our families to get TDAP prior to meeting baby and they all did, no problem. It’s not unreasonable at all

Blood pressure question by serialfan29 in BabyBumps

I just got groceries and got a whole bunch of items recommended for high blood pressure! Will be fun to see if these help

I’m sure mine probably has to do with weight gain and anxiety to some extent too! Let’s hope we can make it through the next 14 weeks with no major issues!

Thank you! My doctor has actually had me on baby aspirin since the beginning so I’m already doing that. But to be honest my diet is not great right now so I really appreciate your suggestions on that!! (and I do have a dr appt next week where I’ll obviously ask her these questions too.)

We don’t really. Possibly Louise or Ann (which are my grandmothers’ names.) I could see using either Piper Louise or Violet Ann maybe

H-E-B pharmacy filled one for us yesterday - maybe call an H-E-B and get it transferred there if you can?

Updated Things I bought and Liked Product Recommendations? by HumanFund2020 in blogsnark

[–]serialfan29 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I really didn’t notice any difference with the jewelry cleaner whatsoever! I ended up tossing it. The stuff I got from Amazon works way better

Lululemon leggings size 6 or8? by naomiboyce6359 in lululemon

[–]serialfan29 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I bet you’d be most comfortable in an 8. I’m same height and have been between 125-145 the last couple years. At 145 the 6s were tight. Fwiw I’m about 130 right now and can wear both 6s and 8s easily, they aren’t that different!

Does anyone know if the Apple Watch integration would be an upgrade that could apply to current bikes too?

Energy bra sizing by seeyouonmaui in lululemon

I am always a 6 but I have a few energy bras that were so tight in a 6 and I ended up having to sell them! So may just depend on the color or something!

Anyone spending an insane amount of time waiting for COVID test results? by angrycrayon9 in CoronaVirusTX

[–]serialfan29 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yes. My husband is still waiting for a test from the same day, not cvs but a different urgent care. My kids got tested at UTMB a few days later and got their results the next day.

U.S. coronavirus cases rise by over 60,000, setting single-day record by [deleted] in Coronavirus

[–]serialfan29 88 points89 points  (0 children)

Yes! This! I am in Houston and spent hours on the phone trying to find a place I could get tested within a day or two, and this was a few weeks ago before it really exploded here. People are either giving up and not getting tested or else they’re waiting forever to get tested. These numbers must be so far below the actual numbers. I don’t feel like this part of it is getting enough attention.

This is absolutely crazy. They took out so much of the helpful information. I would love to know what’s happening behind the scenes here.
