I'm so nervous guys. At 30 weeks with my son I ended up having an emergency c section due to preeclampsia and the docs not being able to get my blood pressure down. I def don't want the same thing to happen with this baby. What are some things I should do differently or could do differently?
My preemie is on my profile picture with me. He's 4 months now so I'm sure he wouldn't look so small now. But he's on my profile pic with me @kimberlyyyy
They told me they wouldn't accept the request for the group because your fb profile doesn't indicate that you have a preemie. It's the first time I've ever heard of them being so picky about members. I'm so sorry. I had no idea they were like that. I can try talking to them again, but I guess you'd have to have a couple pictures of your preemie as public or add a mini description saying you're a preemie mom or something.
@kimberlyyyy, getting into the preemie group on Facebook looks harder than I thought. I sent the request someone must've denied it because I had to send another requests hours later 😩
@coral1, I heard the second time around ppl normally don't get it
@coral1, I hope I don't get preeclampsia either and am able to go all the way. Oh boy. I had my son at 30 weeks I'm hoping that doesn't happen again. Are you having a c section or natural birth?
@coral1, I really want to but I'm not sure because November will only make 12 months and I'm not sure if that's enough time to heal. There are some risk if I do it naturally this time but I really want to. My first prenatal visit is April 15th we will see hats the plan
What's your Facebook name? I'll see if I can talk to an admin
You can add those groups and ask the other members what their doctors chose to do for them. Aspirin is the only thing I can remember, but I'm not sure the specifics. Good luck momma! Hope you have a healthy and full term pregnancy this time around.
I'm waiting for them to accept my requests on fb to the preemie moms group @kimberlyyyy
I def will talk to my doc on April 15th. Thank you @kimberlyyyy
Did your doctor tell you to take an aspirin a day? Since you're a preemie momma I suggest trying to add yourself to the preemie mom pages o follow on Facebook. I'm not sure how many people can relate to you here, although I've seen quite a few preemie moms here. Anyway, if you look for Preemie moms, Super Preemies, and Preemie Support And Awareness those are all helpful groups/pages I'm a member of. As always, talk to your OB Doctor and if it's a different doctor than your first make sure they know your previous medical history.
@coral1, me too
