How big is baby? Probably around 9 lbs now
Team Pink/blue/green/don't know? Team Green turned Pink!

My bleeding has slowed again and my stitches are feeling better after being messed with at the hospital. For DD - her belly button is still bleeding a little and getting crusty dried blood. I wish it would stop!

Glad you’re feeling better tbirdlove! When is your due date? How far along are you? OR how old is baby?! 7w How big is baby? I’m guessing around 10 lbs. Team Pink/blue/green/don't know? Any Upcoming Appointments? Symptoms: my back still bothers me quite a bit Milestones: officially out of the nb stuff, I think this is our last and I don’t know what to do with the stuff he grows out of. Thinking about getting rid of it makes me a little sad. Rants/Raves/AW/Questions? I am dairy and caffeine free right now so that’s been a challenge, baby overall is much calmer and easier to soothe so far. It could be that he’s just maturing or the diet changes are helping. He still sleeps mostly in bed with me. |

When is your due date? How far along are you? OR how old is baby?! DS is 3w5d old
How big is baby? Probably 8.5 lbs?
Team Pink/blue/green/don't know?
Any Upcoming Appointments? 1 month check up on the 16th and appts with Pulmonary and genetic counselor on the 17th.
Symptoms: PP bleeding is just a light discharge, I can wear just a panty liner now. DS's dirty diapers waiver between normal and MSPI symptoms.
Milestones: Today is day 15 of being dairy free.
Rants/Raves/AW/Questions? How long before his diapers fully return to normal? I'm guessing some time after he's been completely dairy free? 1.5-2 weeks-ish?

mirabelle I would just pack the clothes away for now. You can decide what to do with them later when you're ready. I feel sad thinking about eventually having to decide what to do with baby stuff too. ftwr I would guess yes, when he's completely dairy free. But it can take a while after you stop eating dairy for it to fully leave your system. Hopefully you'll see more 'normal' diapers soon!

ftwr everything I’ve read says 2 weeks for dairy to be out of your system and then another 2 weeks for it to be out of baby’s system.

mirabelle do you have any pregnant friends or family who you can give the clothes to? When I found out DS was a boy I gave away all DD’s clothes that she’s outgrown - it was easier giving them to someone I know than just putting them in a donation bin somewhere.

Milestones:
Rants/Raves/AW/Questions?
Even though I had to use clomid for both dds and it's probably nearly impossible for me to get pregnant without help, I'm getting an iud placed tomorrow. We are 99.999999% sure we are done having kids and I definitely don't want a surprise baby.
Does it hurt getting it placed? Anything I should do tomorrow before my appointment like take Ibuprofen or anything?

brenna I've heard the IUDs can be a little uncomfortable getting placed. I've talked to my Dr in the past about getting one and I'm pretty sure she had talked about taking ibuprofen beforehand 😊

brenna I had an iud placed after M. It wasn’t super uncomfortable but it was s big pinch. I plan on talking to my dr about the difference between hormonal and non hormonal iud at my 2 week appointment so I can make a plan for my 6 week.

I disappeared for a while, can I come back?
When is your due date? How far along are you? OR how old is baby?! 10/9 - 40+1
How big is baby? hopefully I'll find out soon!
Team Pink/blue/green/don't know? Green, and getting anxious to find out
Any Upcoming Appointments? I'll have a BPP and see the midwife on Tuesday if baby waits that long.
Symptoms: Just typical late pregnancy complaints. I'm looking forward to no longer needing to pee every 10 minutes. Sore, tired.
Milestones: Baby has decided that 40 weeks is not quite long enough.
Rants/Raves/AW/Questions? I'm flip flopping between the "baby please get out" and "oh crap, what were we thinking, baby has to come out!"

She’s 2 weeks!!
How big is baby?
6lbs 12 oz above birth weight!
Team Pink/blue/green/don't know?
Pink

Symptoms:
Milestones: she’s gaining and happy!
Rants/Raves/AW/Questions?
I still can’t believe she’s already here. My last day of work was supposed to be the 12th. She’s like the twin of my other Daughter. It’s crazy.

When is your due date? How far along are you? OR how old is baby?! She is three days old.
How big is baby? 6 pounds 15 ounces.
Team Pink/blue/green/don't know? Pink
Any Upcoming Appointments? She had her pedi appointment today and checked out fine which is a huge relief. DD1 had a heart murmur (which led to a diagnosis and cardiology appointments), jaundice and was losing too much weight. I go for my follow up on Tuesday.
Symptoms: Oh the pains of c-section delivery. I would really just like to stand up straight! I'm extra cautious because with my last delivery I had hematomas that led to some complications so I'm trying to find a balance of moving enough to heal and taking it easy. Overall my pain meds are doing their job. I get some sharper pains with uterine contractions when I breastfeed DD2.
Milestones: We came home yesterday. It felt good to be out of the hospital and have no reason for them to keep us longer like last time. When my doctor asked if we wanted to go I jumped on the opportunity.
Rants/Raves/AW/Questions? It is really cool seeing how much my girls look alike, especially when looking at old pictures of them in the same items. I birthed twins basically three years apart. :-)
