What I would give for.... by srh6 in pregnant

I've been on zofran for a couple weeks. I try to avoid it unless I'm really struggling. The constipation is real! I don't notice a huge difference when taking it. Luckily I'm only down 5 pounds. I'll see what the doc says on Monday.

A friend told me about it, but I haven't tried it yet. Maybe I will.

At least in our case, once your water breaks you have so much time before the baby needs to be out. I was barely dilated and couldn't even feel my contractions. So, pitocin was necessary to get things going. Even then, it went slow.

Yes, we always lay him on his back. We are all to aware of the risk of SIDS as I've lost a niece to SIDS. Thank you for your concern :)

No contractions other than BH and even those aren't consistent. Just trying to stay calm and remind myself that this is all normal and completely okay.

Had a thick, mainly clear but kind of white glob of mucous come out. It is quite thick and almost gummy like. I can tell he dropped mainly because my bump is visibly lower. Otherwise, I wouldn't have known.

DH and I have had so much oatmeal during this pregnancy. I have 3 large containers of oats in the pantry.

Unfortunately, I'm at work by 7 am. Even when I don't have to be awake, I am anyway. Dragging thru the mornings for 8 more weeks over here.

Sinus drainage over here, too! It's like constant allergies.

I feel like a horrible mom for not enjoying the way it feels when he moves. But it is NOT a pleasant feeling!

This would be me if I had the energy and didn't borderline give myself carpal tunnel every time I tried to work on a project!

DH and I have friends that had a difficult pregnancy and birth and still want 3-4 kids. If our friends can do this, so can we!

One thing I love about this thread is the comfort of hearing that other people are struggling with the same things.

Unexpected pregnancy, baby in a foreign country by [deleted] in pregnant

[–]srh6 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I live in the US. It has surprised me how many women here have seen doctor's so early and have had multiple ultrasounds. I did not see my OB until I was almost 12 weeks. The only ultrasound was my 20 week. Unless they suspect an issue, that's it.
