    Really having a hard time 4w2d

    @tgrills Stop testing with inito. It's not accurate at all for hormone levels. It's great for trends but not actual numbers. It absolutely can't tell you your hcg levels.

    How long is this going to take?

    @gem54 It could take a long time. I carried for 5 weeks after my baby stopped growing and had no idea. I would recommend you get to another doctor who CAN schedule you for a d&c (it sounds like you are). Also look up th3 signs of infection as you are at risk for that every day your body holds...

    breastfeeding 2 day old

    @salvationtrain Meanwhile we supplemented at the beginning and I never needed to supplement after my milk came in. Studies show formula supplementation increases EBF rates at 6 months.

    First US - Dating Question/Reassurance

    @bev81 Cardiac activity means that there is a "heartbeat" (its not a heart yet but its the equivalent) but they just werent able to measure it yet which can happen if the fetal pole is just beginning. Very nornal for 6 weeks.

    Continuous spotting?

    @susanne2013 It can be normal.or not normal. Ive had spotting in every single one of my pregnancies. 3 were miscarriages and 1 was not. I just spot in pregnancy because I have a friable cervix. So none of the bleeding was even related to baby, only cervix. I'll tell you what made me feel...

    Feeling a sense of doom about this pregnancy

    @nice19 Anxiety is not intuition. I have felt doom in my successful pregnancies and hope before miscarriages.

    Can't Get My Wife Off of Her D*mn Phone

    @cameronreagan Why is that out of line? Like sure some people prefer to have screenless meals but its not disgusting behavior or anything.

    3 weeks 1 day

    @jessi1194 40 at 10dpo is not very low. Mine was only 25 at 12dpo. My clinic also said it was low but that it only indicated I was very early in pregnancy. Just had baby girl a few days ago.

    raising gen “beta”

    @jely I think maybe it can be organic. Sometimes as adults there is time to work through the emotion and sometimes it has to be put on the back burner. If you need to be moving on then becayse its time sensitive that's the time to say something similar but if you can take the time then I think...

    hCG rising but not doubling. Miscarriage risk?

    @gentlemangamer Youre too far along to worry about doubling times.

    Reassurance, please! Test progression question

    @renwei It doesnt matter. Late implantation is linked to higher chances of miscarriage but everything is going well for you. I had a negative on 10dpo morning and a very faint positive that night. All is well.

    8 Week U/S Question!!

    @thriftfabulous The head does kind of look weird. A little tuck is normal but thats extreme. I'm sure it's nothing to worry about though, baby is just being contrary already lol

    How much time do new moms spend with babies?

    @davida1949 If shes really sleeping that much it absolutely sounds like depression. Not all women are maternal but this is far past that.

    Driving 5/ 6 hours (without counting breaks) for Thanksgiving with a 2 month old. Would you do it?

    @spiritualfreedom1 In the us its recommended to keep exposure to a minimum until they get their first shots around 2 months old. Pertussis is a really big problem here and deadly for infants.

    Hopefully some inspiration (TW: results not typical)

    @esmerelda Also not all of the belly is weight. Your uterus and abdominal muscles often take time to go back to normal and many still look pregnant for at least that first month. As for breastfeeding it just depekds. I couldn't lose ANY weight while breastfeeding. Only started once I stopped.

    Driving 5/ 6 hours (without counting breaks) for Thanksgiving with a 2 month old. Would you do it?

    @jjgodman Yeah its really not the drive for me. Ive done long drives with a newborn. Its just nto WORTH the drive to gk to a huge family gathering with a newborn.

    Is it normal to wash a 0 to 1 year old’s clothes everyday?

    @seastar 0 to 1 is a huge range. How old is the baby? I washed my sons clothes every other day until he was 4 months old because he would spit up on everything. Throw in cloth diapers and you could definitely be doing it every day.

    I can’t stop drinking soda

    @ancientpathshepherdess Its fine. Both of my viable pregnancies I had HG and lived off of Baja blast because it was the only.liquid I could keep down. Baby is getting what they need regardless.

    Can't Get My Wife Off of Her D*mn Phone

    @robster1981 Yeah as someone having a rough pregnancy i am on my phone like 500% more than I ever was before. If this is something new I would let this go if you can OP. Zoning out is one of the few things that makes my life bareable right now.

    @joshuac3000 here is a comment with some links Generally anything over 100 on 14dpo is considered good.
