I hate my generation sometimes ? Today was my nieces baby shower, which went great. She got so much which amazing since she's been working 2 jobs trying to save up for the unpaid leave she'll have to take from work. Anyways I was talking to one of the ladies there since my son and her daughter were playing together. I asked her what her daughters name was, she said it was Layla. I told her that's a really pretty name and asked her if she was a Clapton fan and if she was named after the song. This girl had no idea who Eric Clapton is. ? ♀ One of the most iconic songs, and she had no idea. I hate my generation. ?
my mom died this morning. She lived with me. this morning she woke up and went to the bathroom. i was on zoom and i heard a bang. she died in the bathroom. i wasn’t able to open the door or help her. she’s had health issues but this was unexpected. my kids were at home, i had someone come get them. i had to stay in the house with her body until the funeral home came to get her. idk how to tell my kids. they loved her sooooo much. i don’t know how to be at home. i’m just so lost. she was all i had. my dad died when i was 12. idk i just wanted to vent.
Science! My friend posted this on facebook last night and said her kids were asleep within minutes. It's a song that scientists created to help people fall asleep. I was skeptical but I thought what the hay, I'll try it out. I didn't bank on Dh falling asleep, but both him and lo were asleep by minute 2. And lo slept six straight hours. ?
My doctor said he would induce my labor at 38 weeks, if my baby girl still had growth issues and if the percentile dropped to 10 or less. Last thursday, it was 10 percentile, and he said if she didn't come on her own by 38 weeks, he would induce labor at that time. I'm 36 weeks 1 day today, he said my cervix was super thin, and 1cm dilated. Is there a possibility this can change... that my doctor will let her just come on her own? I don't want to be induced, i would much rather her come on her own when she is ready to come ! As much as I am anxious to meet her and have her home with me, those last few weeks of brain development and lung maturation means so much more to me! I'm hoping and praying that things turn around, and I don't have to get induced. I'm surely going to talk to my doctor about it Thursday when I go back.
I just absolutely love some women on here! Some woman wants to write on another women's post telling her she shouldn't be having sex at all in the beginning of pregnancy. I didn't know she was her doctor. Then she wants to tell me that the first trimester is only 1-9 weeks pregnant. And she lost her baby at 4 weeks pregnant due to sex. Like sweetie that's your period starting!

Please do share @kimberlyyyy_the-preemie-mom. And yes that MgSo4 sucked so bad. I literally felt smoke emanating from my ears and was on it for all 3. My middle child was macrosomic (large) at 35 weeks because of my gestational diabetes. I had it with my eldest but not with my baby girl

Even your 35 weeker was born bigger than my 40 weeker (5lbs 11oz, which was bigger than i was and my dad was at birth). I think I started having preeclampsia with my first son but they let me go to 40 weeks with him. I can't remember any of my details with my second son (I have the paperwork but I'm feeding the little guy so I can't get it) but im pretty sure you had it worse. I'm sorry. =[ I think being on magnesium was one of the worst parts of HELLP. that, and literally feeling your liver starting to fail. There's a few other HELLP moms on here but not many. There's a support page on Facebook that I can share with you if you're interested in talking to other HELLP moms.

@kimberlyyyy_the-preemie-mom, I most certainly did with all three of my children. This time was the most severe. I had my eldest with preeclampsia at 40 exactly on his due date at 7 lbs 4oz. My highest b/p was 217/110. My middle child was born at 35 weeks @ 6lbs 7oz with the highest b/p at 164/100. With my daughter my platelets dropped to 98, my ast/alt doubled in a week and my b/p is still high to this very day. HELLP is horrible and I'm so sorry that you had it too.
