Yesterday's estimated weight on my baby during the ultrasound he weighed 7lb 11oz do you think he will fit into newborn clothes the day he's born ? if he comes out at around 8lbs? Or should I take 0-3 just in case ??
That's funny bc that's what our sons name means too but we're keeping the name a secret until birth I'm dying to spill the beans lol @mommytobe0220
And what it means is even cuterrrr! "A gift from God"
@babybermea, that is so true, I get soooo emotional when I see new born babies! I'm so excited to have my little Ian 💙👶 of course I'll keep you posted! you are really really close!
Don't worry about the weight gain it's all for your sweet bundle of joy and we can always work out and exercise when our baby's are here :) yayy keep me posted on your apt your almost there too !! @mommytobe0220
fingers crossed yass! & not yet I have an appt. next Tuesday, let's see how it goes. Are you planning to have natural birth? I gained 40lbs buttt all my pts have told me is all baby BC I don't look like I've gained weight.
Honestly I eat everything I just (weigh out my food and keep it under so many calories ) may sound crazy but it helps me from going wild and out so I have indulged in every desire just to a minimum but 40 isn't bad everyone's different and I see sooo many posts were right after the baby they loose the weight hopefully that will happen for us too (fingers crossed ) do you know how much your baby weighs ?
@babybermea, wth that's not bad!! I'm 40lbs more but idk how
Carter was 7.8 and wore newborn size for the first 2 months. he was even back up to his birth weight at 4 days old. but I would take a couple outfits in each size. also the weights in ultra sounds aren't super accurate
Tristan fit in his newborn clothes at the hospital but I always took a few sizes to make sure. @babybermea
lol. ..well after u have the baby have ur man stay with the baby...u dont have to let them take him/her ( forgot sorry lmao..)
Haha yeah at this point there's no room left at all my poor belly is stretched to the max !!! @baybiboo
lol ok good ahahhahahahah. .oh my sister had her removed when she was pregnant but she wasn't very far along so it wouldn't really phase the baby with all that room to work with lol
Haha it's okay :) @baybiboo it's nothing to serious I'm just having my gallbladder removed it's packed full of stones and they're worried with the surge of hormones after labor it could rupture or something else equally bad . They were considering removing it while I was pregnant but it was just to much risk to baby girl
sorry if that was really confusing ahaha that comment was to both of u just all mixed up ahah my bad @babybermea @brandylemonds15
lmao ur husbands too funny ahaha..nah it's ok I had flat nips too hahahha..surgery for what if u don't mind me asking?..I heard it's better to have a male anyways because they don't truely know what u go through so they tend to be more sensitive and gentle
A couple Saturday's ago I wa sin labor and delivery and it was a man and he had put on his gloves and told me to relax and spread my legs and my husband was just mean mugging him it was sooo funny and when he walked out he was like oh that's all it takes is some blue gloves I had to whine and dine you first ahhaha it was def more akward bc I have had only female doctors and there hands are a lot smaller :/ lol ahahha @baybiboo
One I have flat nipples (sorry if that's tmi ) and 2 with them putting me to sleep and the pain meds my dr thinks it's just something that won't be possible for me this time we were discussing ways to work around my nipples and stuff before we realized I'd have to have the surgery right away we thought id be able to wait a few months @baybiboo
@babybermea,
hahahahahha ur hubby's hella funny lmao..my man was the too happy when my male ob gave me my pelvic and breast exam ahah ..I'm like get over it boy this ain't the last time his fingers will be in my vagina lmao
@babybermea,
hahahahahha ur hubby's hella funny lmao..my man was the too happy when my male ob gave me my pelvic and breast exam ahah ..I'm like get over it boy this ain't the last time his fingers will be in my vagina lmao
@brandylemonds15, ..
u never know miricle happen everyday..there's a bunch of stuff u can try to up ur supply...I know how u feel tho I only got to nurse for 2 months untill my son REFUSED so I dried up ..mothers milk (tea) and beer (after giving birth obviously lol) help u lactate usually
and that's ok your health comes first so you can have your surgery and be strong for your baby :) @brandylemonds15 prayers for a quick recovery for you !
I'm not gonna be able to breastfeed sadly I wanted to soo bad but my dr said it probably won't be possible . I wish I knew to its so nerve wracking not knowing
@katlynnstarr18, yayy hopefully mines like that so he can rock my favorite little outfit I got him
@brandylemonds15, yes that's a good idea bring an empty bag . Yes bc if you breastfeed they may keep the baby with you or may not I wish we knew these things
@mommytoprinceaiden092915, that makes me feel sooo good bc I have the cutest newborn outfits :/ and I realllly wanted him to atleast wear a couple of them one time ! Thank you 💙
@baybiboo, agreed ! Being pregnant in general just makes any insecurities or having any personal boundaries go straight out the window lol my husband was like you dropped your panties faster for these people on the first visit then you did for me I'm like oh lord lol but righttt I've had so many doctors all inside my goods this pregnancy ahahah
@baybiboo, thank you so much ! Yess I will def ask for the nipple shields I bought some from the store a few weeks ago but if they can offer them and show me how to use them that would be wonderful
I'm packing alittle extra because I'm going in for surgery right after she's born so I don't know if they will send her home without me I just want to be prepared I'm taking an empty bad with me to put anything the hospital gives me in
My son was 8 lbs 9.6 oz and 20 1/2 in long and he was in NB clothes for about a month maybe a little longer
jungle boy ahahahahahh...I had hella stitches so I just didn't give a fuck I was in too.much pain..I think about 30 nurses have seen my titties now ahahaha
@perhsice, yes that's what I heard my cousin recently had her baby and poor thang but nothing new borns and her daughter stayed in newborns for three months lol you just never know how it goes ...@brandylemonds15 Yess I heard that too Eveyone says to let the hospital stock you up but you can always add her things they give you to your bag or purse or something plus they have those clear hospital bags of you needed to move around things
r u wanting to breast feed? if so..and baby had problem latching. .make sure u ask the hospital for some nipple shields I heard they make it way easier..my nurses didn't even mention these damn things lol
my baby was 7 pounds 11 ounces at birth and newborn was a little baggy
really all u need is 2 days worth for natrual perfectly fine birth (they'll only keep u over night usually)
. 3 days worth of clothes (if u have an episiotomy) ..a week's worth for c-section
@kaliyahsmommy, thank you I'm so stressed now everything is newborns I packed fml hahaha time to repack lol
@baybiboo, agreed !! But my family we have a lot of preachers and people from the church will be there so I can't just have him wild and out all jungle boy status my parents would freak so just in case I'll take both thank you :)
Me either ! My cousin told me to leave room in babies bag for all the goodies the hospital sends you home with but now I'm worried her clothes won't fit !! I seen on one of my newborn outfits that it will fit up to 8 pounds I think I'll recheck after I eat
it depends on his height also but just bring 1 in each size ...and dont beleive the clothing size 😂😂 youll learn and see how quick clothes go to waste because he grew so fast so he never wore it
my cousin baby was born at exactly 7.11 and she was able to fit newborn clothes for like the first month or so...but idk about anything higher like 8..just get more 0-3 to be safe mama!
to be honest mamas...you may not even have ur baby in clothes at all when ur at the hospital..I brought so many clothes and my son wore not one outfit lmao..we were both naked as hell the whole 3 days lmao..alot of skin to skin time is good for ur baby tho cuz when they come out everything is new to them even the way u feel because they r used to being warm inside lol..especially clothes r gunna feel weird to them
@fairhmommy, I had read about that ... That's why I asked ok I'll def just take both thank you 💙💙and his weight an estimate so who knows he could be smaller or larger so both would be on the safe side
I had read some were that the newborn clothes fit till about 8lbs so that's why I was so confused lol I don't want to take all these extra clothes to the hospital but I want him to look cute too lol @brandylemonds15 ftm struggles hahaha :)
I'm wondering the same thing ! At my 36 week ultrasound baby girl was already about 7 pounds I'm sure by time I go into labor she'll be closer to 8 . She's tall like her daddy :)
@perhsice, I have a lot of both we were gifted soooo many clothes it's ridiculous and I'm prepared for him to possibly not fit newborns for long but I mean the hospital day do you think if he did happend to be around 8 newborns would be too small ?
for an 8 lb baby no he's not gonna fit in newborn clothes but I would take some of both if I were u. Take 0-3 months. I only say that because my cousin just had her baby and she was 8lb 4 oz and she had to jump into 0-3 month clothes and #1 diapers. everything newborn was out the question lol
Oh yeah..my son was 6.6 and newborns were too big..despite how big u look so.etimes baby really aint that big lol but yes I'd say buy newborn..and 0-3 months lol some newborn clothes are smaller than other newborn clothes it's wierd
I'm taking some of both just Incase US are known to be off by more than a lb either way
my son was 8.9lbs and 23 inches and he fit 3 month clothes lol
definitely get more 0-3 they grow fast maybe a couple newborn outfits but not many
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
Trigger. Lost baby
Went in for my 20 week check up and found out our son had passed away. Nothing was wrong, my pregnancy has been going great. I'm so numb right now. I'll he delivering him later this week. I don't want to do this. I don't want to do this. Not before Christmas. How am I'm going to tell my kids?? My dear sweet baby boy. Why did this happen?
Religion Conspiracy/Theory
**This is not to bash peoples religion and beliefs but to talk about our own theories and ideas** I would like to discuss a certain topic that came to mind after talking to my SO. I know some of you ladies like a good conspiracy talk so i would like to have a good discussion and hear thoughts of others. So back story my SO friends got very offended when he mentioned not believing in god or religion and it got me thinking. Is religion a failing form of goverment cont...

Y’all please please be careful and monitor what these babies are watching on YouTube thank god my baby didn’t understand what the thing was saying he showed me the phone and said “scary mama” I think continued to listen to what the thing was saying and I was livid and horrified it was explaining to my son how to kill the whole family while everyone was asleep

My husband and I aren’t exactly strangers when it comes to relationship challenges 💞. We have been together for 14 years and married for eight, so we’ve definitely gone through some growing pains as we navigated a long-distance relationship in college and our first year living together as a married 👫 couple.
But nothing has challenged our relationship quite like our first year as 👪 parents .
Before you have your first child, you have these grand ideas of what it will be like. There’s more slee...
Omg same here with his middle name 😆
