  • And I should have known better with my last obgyn cuz she was pushing for c section since the very first visit. Oh well, lesson learned. Oh and after Damien I told everyone that I never wanted too be pregnant again.... But low and behold, Damien onl…
  • Damien was 9.8 pounds and they think this one will be bigger too. My Dr was absolutely horrible! I hated her, she ignored me when I was concerned about my weight gain, when I wasn't feeling Damien move she kept blowing me off and then one day laughe…
  • At any health food store or in the health section at a grocery store.
  • Coconut oil!!! Mine have been really bad this pregnancy and coconut oil is the only thing that works. Just make sure you get the virgin and unrefined kind, it actually has many many uses! But it's antibacterial and anti itch lol good for bug bites, …
  • Oh and I completely understand how only a few pounds is a lot! Which is why how much I've gained looks absolutely horrid on me!
  • @jules I was induced due to depression and baby being big (worst decision I made). They turned the pitocin up very high and didn't tell me so I was having back to back contractions and only 1 1/2 for about 8 hours. Finally gave into the epidural eve…
  • I don't blame you! I hate needles period but after the pics of the picc line and stories from my sil I'm really glad Zofran worked most of the time for me. I only landed in the hospital once with Damien for dehydration.
  • :( maybe these is a way for you to do the picc line at home if she said at home care. I only know what my sil told me so I'm really no help, sorry. And I had never heard of the pump. I'm sure my sil would have appreciated that cuz I don't think her …
  • Lol @jules @math_mommy you girls are too cute. My miscarriage happened when I was 19, so over 7 years ago. Damien Logan is 16 months and my second little boy, Wyatt James, is due on June 27th but I'm having a repeat c section to avoid all the compli…
  • I've never had either but my sil had the picc line. She hated it, it was very uncomfortable and hurt. She had to cover her whole arm to shower. She had it in til she was 20 weeks. But that's all I really know about it. She had to go to the hospital …
  • @jules Third pregnancy but only second living baby :) I was a healthy weight when I got preggo the first time (the miscarriage) 115 pounds... That's when all my weight problems started lol even though I get pregnant really easily (which I'm super gr…
  • @jules true, I've never had any issues getting pregnant. With my first though my milk never came in, but I think that was more due to a "traumatic" Labor and birth. Praying the milk issue isn't an issue when this baby gets here in June. I …
  • Absolutely absurd! My kid is very spirited too, I do everything in my control to keep him under control! If I have to I bring a stroller and strap him in. I try not to cuz I hate him being in the stroller when he can be walking, but there is a time …
  • Yeah, I was just slightly over weight when I got pregnant with my first ( 5'2 and 139 pounds) and then I of course gained 70+ pounds.... Lost 30 right away and then had to work my butt off to get 20more off. Then my son became mobile and working out…
  • His crib is already on the lowest setting and I figured he used his bumper the first time so we took it out.... And the booger still got out again! Lol just gonna have to keep at it. My hubby got a bunch of pillows and put them all around the crib.
  • I'll try that @joshneviesmom. he's never crawled out of his crib before and he did it twice last night! Hearing him fall out of his crib is terrible! It worries me and now I feel like I'm being mean trying to get him back into in his own bed :(
  • I'll try that, he had croup recently so yes I was putting him on a pillow and he used me as one as well. I just know I tried to put one in the crib at my parents (after he fell sleep I put in the crib) and when I checked on him he was under it. I kn…
  • Ugh he just insists on touching me, I've never been able to sleep with someone touching me and being pregnant it's even worse.
  • Lol I kicked my hubby out last night! I always push Damien away but he immediately rolls right back into my back.
  • Lol @RileyAndMe glad I could make you laugh :P
  • Try preggo pops too. If the nausea doesn'tget better, ask your Dr for Zofran. Even if you're not throwing up it well help.
  • I can tell you right now, especially from personal experience, if you get an induction you are much more likely to get a c section! Do not get induced! its extremely hard on your body and even harder on your baby! Pitocin contractions are much much …
  • :( just ignore her Ashley. Did you update on fb group? I didn't know you had left! They were treating you really poorly though! Is there another hospital you could possible go to? :(
  • If you don't like her and don't believe her then just move on! Seriously no need to be nasty! I'm sure you have better stuff to do.
  • If you really want to try the vbac I say go for it! I'm personally having a repeat c section. Not only do I not want to risk going through what I did last time, I've already got the scar, why have a scar and a stretched out who-ha. That's just me th…
  • Mittens? Lol gotta love auto correct! Mirena!
  • She's on mittens! Back off!
  • I'm 22 weeks and my nipples hurt sooo bad! Wasn't like this with my first pregnancy
  • I get vision blurryness (i mean so blurry i can't see anything but blurred colors) when I'm about to get a migraine or even just a mild headache. It gets worse/more frequent when I'm preggo. It sounds pregnancy related but I'm definitely no Dr. If i…
