CT has Paid Family Leave but teachers or school employees can NOT qualify for it, because the state doesn’t like they get 8 weeks off during the summer. So you better not have a baby in November!! Teacher don’t get paid leave off in most districts.
Miscarriage happens for my first baby ... What are the possible reasons for subchronic haemorrhage..... Doctor said it may be due to hormonal imbalance or stress also ...only two reasons are there or Any other reason are there Plz reply
I am a first time mom. Had an emergency C-section a month ago after 12 hours of painful labour because my baby's heart beat was irregular during labour yet labour wasn't progressing from 6cm and she was getting tired. I wasn't prepared for it but i wanted to save my little one and i. Still healing. haven't yet got back to my normal self, can't do my chores as i used to. What causes back pain at one month postpartum?
Hi! Thank you so much. Please, please write back about the 2017 meta study for multiples that seems to show that progesterone is helpful. I’d love not to take it if there were similar issues to that of the singleton meta studies. (For shortening of cervical length in early 3rd trimester with no history).
Oh gosh this is so sad. I’m English. 30 years ago I got 9 months maternity leave on full pay and another 3 months at 70% pay. Leave can now be shared ( and usually is) between both partnerd
My Dearest Daughter is an IVF Baby... I got pregnant with twins&miscarried my other baby...it took a month... My water broke at 36 weeks... I had a prolapsed cord...I had an Emergency C Section... She is My Miracle Baby... Congratulations to you...
What’s the normal procedure when the OB starts closing you up after the baby is out? For example: - A double closure of the uterus - Closure of the abdominal muscle - Closure of the fat layer
Almost 28 weeks along (first pregnancy) and the past couple weeks I've been dealing with SPD (confirmed by my OB this week) -looking for any ways I can relieve the pain or make it more tolerable because it has me in tears sometimes. Also just frustrating because no one I know has had it so they don't know what I'm talking about ☹️
The b stands for b, not beta, it is beta- hemolytic though. The technical name (which you should be using) is Streptococcus Agalactiae (meaning no milk, because it causes cow mastitis).😊
This is exactly how my first trimester experience was. Had heavy bleeding on 3 occasions, a couple weeks apart. Same gush of blood and continued bleeding for about 2-3 hours. My doctor didn’t explain things well at all and they documented it as a threatened miscarriage. Baby was fine on the ultrasound though. It was only through my own research that I was able to better understand what I was experiencing. My doctor also had me take crinone gel as treatment which was quite expensive and as I’ve learned, likely unnecessary and ineffective (also quite messy). Thankfully, by the 2nd trimester, no more bleeding episodes and I’m now at 30 weeks with a healthy baby bouncing around inside 😊.
I went from 1cm to 10cm in a span of 3hrs and I only pushed twice before my daughter was born. 😅 I am pretty scared at how things might go the second time around. She was a tiny little thing at just 5.6 lbs so maybe if I have a bigger baby things will be different.
So, I'll post my story here to give a perspective. I went against the doctor's orders on purpose. A lot of research that I was reading at the time of my miscarriage said that the pregnancy directly after would be stronger. I joined a support group right away and read something really interesting. A woman mentioned her struggle with God after her miscarriage and when she was pregnant barely a month later she felt as if God had given her baby back. Like the body that was meant for her baby just wasn't strong enough. This was a nice thought I kept to. I however despite the doctor's requests decided that I wanted to get the time back that I had already lost with the first baby. (I went through a miscarriage only to come back the next day and be diagnosed with an incomplete miscarriage. No DNC. and that was one of the worst experiences of my life.) But I knew that the baby wasn't going to survive if my body had responded with that type of pain. This put me at ease and here I am 25 weeks pregnant with my baby girl once again barely a month after we lost our first. For me, it was the mindset that I wasn't going to give up trying because we lost one. Not to replace the one we lost but to keep trying and keep moving forward as the pregnancy was definitely not meant to stay. (This is a rushed post here and there are tons more details that I could add...) I want to give advice to the people who are going through it. The saying "It's not your fault." It will never be something you believe. It wasn't for me. What I can tell you is that your body was able to get pregnant. But your body is also the one that decides if it stays or goes. If your body couldn't handle the pregnancy or the pregnancy wasn't strong enough. You can't control your body when it comes to things like that. You can not control that. Understanding that factor will help a lot. Not only that but, learning to accept what your body did to protect you from the things that could happen after the fact. (Like an incomplete miscarriage.) Learning that, I hope helps anyone who goes through this experience. You aren't alone. You will never be alone when it comes to the pain that comes with this. But, when the time comes that you feel ready, do your best to forgive your body and yourself. Good luck. <3
No bleeding but I just visited ER and found out I’m 6weeks with SCH, THANK YOU SO MUCH! I’ve been crying all morning, took us 3 years to conceive and you’ve eased my nerves ALOT 😊
Mine was super fast until it wasn't. I was already at 4cm 80% before everything and when I went into labor I was already at 8 when we got to the delivery room. The pain was so bad and hit me so fast I didn't have time to get my feet under me to cope. I really didn't want the epidural but I had seconds to decide and ended up getting it because I felt like I was going to pass out. My brain just couldn't handle it and just wanted to shut everything down. Then when it was time to push I was doing well, and we thought it was going to he done in just a few pushes, but she was sunnyside up and not turning. It ended up being almost 4 hours. I also started getting horrible heartburn everytime I came down from a push and threw up all over myself while laying down. The OB came in like 3 times and I still wasn't ready. They kept checking the clock and counting the hours . Everytime the OB came in and left I just thought "please come back" because I just wanted to be done. I was able to finally get her out because I was still going strong even though I was so tired and she was doing well the whole time. I know I should feel proud because I did it without a c section or assistance, but I can't stop feeling like I failed, especially since all of my friends did it within 20 minutes. Then I hemorrhage, and when they tried giving me oral fluids I just couldn't keep anything down. This was all after the pregnancy from hell. I had 24/7 nausea the whole way among other things.
My first c section caused numbness and I still had it when I had my second c section 11 years later. 🤷🏼♀️ and I still have the numbness after 2 c sections and I doubt after 3rd one here soon it’ll make a difference lol. Wild
I had my first born now 20 vaginally with no pain meds and my last two babies 13 and 2 scheduled c sections and I’m about to have my last baby in about 4 weeks.. I’m 35 weeks today. And I’d rather have an unmedicated vaginal birth any day over a c section!! They are for me excruciatingly painful. I’m allergic to NSAIDS so that sucks for me.. Also having this baby c section because i have too and getting a tubal ligation while in the process.
Is it true if you have a c section you cant tone yout abs anymore with exercise??? Im having a c section and really like exercising so im wondering if this is true
had an emergency C-section last week no complications. Recovery The first week was rough but doable with painkillers. ❤ I tried getting off my pain meds way too soon. Don't be a hero! Take time to recover. also I think i would probably be fully recovered by now if my BMI wasn't so high. the most uncomfortable things -postpartum contractions - the nurse pressing on your tummy right after surgery 😮💨 - getting to the toilet in time right after surgery otherwise it wasn't a bad experience ❤
In my first pregnancy I had a very small bleed/spotting and I ended up going 39 weeks and giving birth to a healthy baby. Now I'm pregnant with my 2nd and had a major bleed this time and so far no miscarriage, even though I'm still early in my first trimester. 🤞
I thought the ARRIVE trial was flawed since it was not done on general population. Yes 6000 women says yes to induction at 39 weeks but a lot more said no. So the trial was done on women who accept interventions, NOT general population women.
