    HB at 10W - high?

    I had a 10W reassurance US yesterday (MMC in January that I found out about at 10W, so my OB has been great about extra check-ins this pregnancy). HB was 189, which seems high. Baby was GROOVING in there, though--the tech said it was bouncing around like crazy, and didn't seem at all concerned...

    Any tips on mentally coping without a consistent routine? (4 w/o baby)

    Prior to having a 4 week old baby, my life was basically dictated by a very strict routine. However since she's been born, I've had no routine and it's really affected me. I think the main thing is that I just don't feel ...well, I guess I feel constantly out of routine. And because I feel out...

    Sleep n' Plays

    Ok so my 7 month boy/girl twins are pretty tall and are barely fitting into their Sleep n' Play outfits which are size 9months. I've been looking high and low for size 12 or 18month Sleep n' Play outfits. Those that I have found are too long, like REALLY long and very slim-fit. There's a huge...

    Changing table necessary for pack and play?

    I'm looking at pack and plays for my 6 week old and am a little overwhelmed by the many options. I plan to use the p&p as a safe place for our newborn (and eventually a toddler) in the living room. I see there are p&p with a bassinet, but also p&p with a bassinet and changing table. I have a...

    I have twins (2.5f) and a singleton(6 month f) I got to hold twin A for a minute before she was brought to the intensive care and only looked at twin b for 30 seconds. They were both bottle fed and I always found twin a harder to settle and twin b easier. My connection with them has never...

    Family making inappropriate comments about my baby

    Family makes inappropriate comments about my baby So my family has always had a sense of humor that hasn’t really matched mine, and have always made some (in my mind) inappropriate comments. For instance I’ve always been petite with a larger butt and when I was probably as early as 9 they would...

    Reassurance, please! Test progression question

    As I cannot post pics here, here is a post I just made with picture references! Prefacing this by saying I’m a very anxious person in general and experienced a CP two months ago hence the worry and seeking reassurance 🙃 On 11DPO I got the faintest of faint positives on a FRER. In fact it took...

    Been booked for a scan next week at 6+5, based on my LMP. I’m sure I will only be 5+3 though. Is it a waste of time?

    My LMP was 8th Jan. This makes me currently 5+5. I have long, irregular cycles, but I always get distinct, sore ovulation pain exactly 2 weeks before my period comes. I had that ovulation pain 18 days ago and if I calculate my pregnancy based on ovulation date and not LMP it puts me at 4+3...
