So... I think I have a hernia in my c section scar.
Is it possible to have mastitis and get a hernia in the same fucking week?
Anyone have any experience with this?

I am 5 1/2 weeks postpartum and I’m still taking Colace. It wasn’t necessary last time, but for some reason my intestines are struggling this time. I’ve been taking it for 5 weeks and just finished the bottle. Fingers crossed that hinge go smoothly!

I only took it in the hospital but I should have just taken it longer ... would have made my life so much easier lol

My bleeding came back with a vengeance yesterday. Tons of clots and several gushes of blood. Of course it happened the moment I walked into the target. And of course I was wearing a thinner pad because the bleeding had tapered off And of course I didnt have any extras in my bag because I was there to buy pads. I had to immediately go to the bathroom and I tucked a diaper into my underwear, then bled through that on my way to get the pads. It was not pretty. Then had to pick up the toddler from preschool in blood stained shorts. Luckily they were red!
I was on the verge of calling the ob becausw it sewmed like so much bleeding, but I was able to lay down and it calmed down again. But I feel like I'm back to day one in terms of cramping.

My toddler (2 years 4 months) is handling the new baby pretty well so far (knock on wood), but my parents are visiting so I think he's enjoying all the attention from Grandma & Grandpa. He's up to his normal toddler antics, of course. And he seems to be developing some a cold, so that's a bummer for everyone.

I figured out how to get L into the Ktan in the kangaroo position. She quickly fell asleep and then pooped ☹️

armpants, how are you feeling? Have you been released yet? I got to come home yesterday afternoon. I'm feeling a little better each day, but I'm totally exhausted. Additional fatigue is also a side effect of one of my meds. So low key weekend for us.

FWIW DS has been great with the baby. He’s been a normal 3 year old. He has his days and moments but no extreme different behavior (so far). This is us, too. She's obviously still a 3 yr old and can be an asshole toddler. But she isn't to the baby, which is good. 🤷♀️

I think we just managed to push through the hard part of BFing. My milk is in on my left side and after I got him on (which was the struggle), he got a lot in just a few minutes. By the look he gave he was very confused about why he didn't have to work so hard to get it lol. Now we just need to get the milk in on the right and we're golden!!

Can anyone tell me how long it took them to stop crying at nothing this time around? I can’t remember with DD1 and I am so over this.

We had to stay an extra day at the hospital because F lost 10.3% of his weight, but as of last night, he put on an ounce :-) Hopefully that means that we can go home today!!

Ugh. I’ve hit 41 w today. Last night I had one contraction. 1! I was really hoping it was the start of labor but alas, I’m still pregnant.

F put on just under another ounce between last night and this morning, yay!! He's been borderline jaundice so they took some more blood and we're just waiting on the results :-)

I can't remember, do you have a plan? since I went 41+5 with DD they are letting me go to 42 w. I have an appt Tuesday for another u/s, NST, and meeting with the doctor. At that point we’ll talk induction date. I really don’t want to be induced. With DD, I went into labor naturally on my induction date so maybe having that eviction date is what baby need to come on their own.
