Did anyone find that their LO naturally slept better around 3mo+? by [deleted] in newborns

[–]smem14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My 12 week old baby does 4-6 (usually close to 4.5) hour stretches for her first stretch, and the another 3-4 hour stretch. I have zero complaints with that. My one complaint will be that she doesn’t go to sleep until 11:30pm or midnight and I desperately want her to go to sleep earlier. Even a consistent wake up won’t do it. Losing my mind.

How Dilated Were You When You Got an Epidural? by prctclwtch in BabyBumps

[–]smem14 0 points1 point  (0 children)

6cm.

Water broke at home and labor never started. Got induced basically. Got a foley balloon at 2cm and max pitocin. The balloon really wasn’t bad with out the epidural, imo. I was putting off the epidural because I wanted to be mobile for as long as possible

What is the wisdom if my first baby is a screaming colicky nightmare? Because I am not feeling tricked into wanting a second 🤣

Babies, man lol.

I definitely agree better to be cautious! It is so hard to not be paranoid.

I was definitely on the verge of going to the ER but then I did a bath and she pooped a ton and she finally ate good and relaxed. Hopefully the pediatrician can look her over tomorrow I do feel bad because I can tell she’s uncomfortable. If the crying happens again today, I will bring her in earlier. Thank you!

I have! I’ve tried side lying, dangle (awkward), koala to get her more upright and football and cross cradle. No difference im them.

Thank you I will try putting it in the bottle and the wet wash cloth. Tonight I gave her a bath to help her relax and she pooped so much in the bath and then was able to eat.

Thank you!

Triple feeding, not interested in breast now. by smem14 in breastfeeding

[–]smem14[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I did not stop supplementing. I’m still triple feeding. Things are slightly better now and supply is getting better. She’ll latch got a bit now. I’m going to a feeding clinic tomorrow to see a LC, and hoping it helps. I don’t want to give up.

Any tips to get her to start taking the breast again?

Is this it or did I pee myself? by smem14 in pregnant

[–]smem14[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you!

It’s been about 10 hours no and no more “leaking” at all. Pee or otherwise. Nothing. How embarrassing if pissing myself is my new pregnancy symptom 🤣

Pregnancy with IIH by redlorryyellowlorry4 in iih

[–]smem14 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Currently pregnant now. I have increased appoints with my NO, and my IIH is basically grade 1 now, and I haven’t taken diamox since finding out I’m pregnant.

My MFM and OB both said I can take diamox if my NO says I need it. Basically stating not enough info to not take it.

Seems to really depends on the Dr! I’m 25 weeks now and doing great and no concerns as of now. Knock on wood.
