@kittymeow1919 Do what works but I taught independent sleep at 4 weeks old and my son started sleeping through the night by 6 months so that's what personally worked for me. I didn't want to sleep like shit for 3 years and my kid was overtired from not being able to sleep at night. Drowsy but...

@markrhoward So the recommendation for most women who have had c sections is to wait a minimum of 1 year between pregnancies and ideally 18 months so personally I would wait. The risks of things like abruption are much higher if you get pregnant too quickly.

@zogy101 Take the hcg cut offs with a grain of salt. Ive never seen what I'm supposed to according to those but I've seen what I'm supposed to according to my gestational timeline. The favt is that some women have high hcg so those cutoffs dont work. My hcg is always high and ive only carried...

@markrhoward Even women with vaginal births are recommended to wait a year but the fact is that getting pregnant too soon after a csection can KILL you. Also having kids more than 2 years apart is just... not an issue? I guess its kind of insulting to those of us who don't have 2 under 2 that...

@mcg1102 This is really interesting, but also so weird to see because my cycle length isn't even included. 23 days is apparently too short for these guys. I do find it interesting that they found an average ovulation day of 15 despite cycles as short as 25. That's so weird and unexpected. But...

@traininggrounds I dont know if I am anymore since I havent sized myself in awhile but I was a D cup AFTER doing a bra that fits so its kind of disappointing that they dont have that size?? Are they specifically for larger breasts because it doesnt look like they having anything under an F?

@christiancountrygal Thatz gonna depend on you. I use it for walks in my neighborhood and on the trails but I wouldn't want to use it in a store or in a city. I love my bob stroller, but I have an umbrella one for taking into a store or I babywear. I didn't use a travel system since I have used...

@jimishasmom Nope she's correct. Both my babies were early and needed supplementing and we're taking 20 to 30 ml the day they were born. Super normal and the tiny tummy has been debunked. Second night syndrome happens because the baby is hungry and most people don't have milk till day 3. Also...

@lida09 I know that the answer is no, but anecdotally I have had 23 day cycles my entire life (though they got wonky after my last MC) and my AMH is 0.6 at 26, so yes, my ovarian reserve is apparently quite low. My mom, who also had 23 day cycles her whole life, is going through menopause in...

@sisi Oh gosh. Every time I see AMH charts I am reminded that mine is that of a woman in her 40s, but this one really put that in perspective. Yikes.

@yommie Your hcg was low but at this point ultrasound is a better indicator of viability and you saw a fetal pole within the range of variability with a very good heartbeat. Id take it as a good sign.

@jesusis4us I have had 2 ultrasounds in the 5th week (two different pregnancies.) One at 5w2d and one at 5w5d. I did not see a fetal pole at either. Both were viable.

@brownwarrior22 Most places won't do an abdominal until 8 to 10 weeks. It will show something but its not gonna be accurate at all.

@dpowerz Its gonna depend. Is it fat? Is it loose skin? Is it DR? Loose skin in particular is usually there ti stay.

@mgross Its going to depend honestly. Nausea usually gets accompanied by food aversions. I was seriously averse to chicken while pregnant even though I love it normall and its a huge staple in my diet. I was also averse to water. Just a small sip would make me puke so I had to start using...

@nevable My REs standard protocol was first ultrasound once you hit 2k hcg, mine was also around 5w2d

@taramiss So that early the only thing I would expect to see is a gestational sac. Maaaaybe a yolk sac but it certainly isn't a red flag if you don't see one.

@logicuser777 I can tell you the reason you shouldn't do that. An advanced opk/fertility monitor reads high when you start your estrogen surge and peak when you start your lh surge. It is two completely different hormones. High means nothing if you are only testing lh. It makes sense that your...

@bskicrash1 There is no such thing as low hcg at 10 dpo. There is pretty much no reference to what is a good number that early. 8 is pregnant. Take a breath and wait for some more blood draws.

@carolj471 Yup. My nephews have been doing overnights with my mom since a month old. My kid did his first over night closer to 2.5. It just depends on your own comfortableness wirh the situation.
