@erikanbethune2, that’s all you can do. I’ll be thinking about you ❤️
@erikanbethune2, I was told by my OB that if for whatever reason my stress test aren’t good I’ll be pulled from work also and be put on bed rest so I understand. Hopefully it flies by if you ever need to talk message me! Don’t get depressed tho you have babies cooking that will make it all up for you.
@raqueliiosiis being on bed rest not being able to do anything it's hard and miserable and makes me very depressed
@erikanbethune2, you’re almost to the finish line hopefully these 6 weeks fly by.
@raqueliiosiis yeah im just over it I've been on bed rest i was in the hospital for a week but now im at home and just miserable
@erikanbethune2, that makes sense. I’m lucky that we haven’t had to deal with that. If you ever do think you may be in labor, make sure you get to the hospital quickly, so babies can get the quickest and best care.
@erikanbethune2, oh okay that makes sense well hopefully you can keep them in until at least 36 weeks! But tbh I haven’t felt any Braxton Hicks and if I’ve had them I haven’t been able to tell so can’t be any help there.
@raqueliiosiis i mean she wants to do my c section at 36 weeks if i make it to that bc i have a short cervix
@mrschanandlerbong95 that's when my Dr wants to schedule the c section and i have a really short cervix so I'll be lucky if i do make it that far
@itslinny, has your dr told you anything? I’m measuring 3 weeks ahead and my OB said the only reason why I would deliver early is if I’m induced but even then it’ll be only a week early. Measuring ahead doesn’t mean lungs and brain are done developing. Hopefully your baby stays and cooks I know my son is already head down so we’re just hoping and praying he stays in there until 39 weeks.
@erikanbethune2, why are you only going to 36? I’m also having twins, and they want me to go at least 38.
@erikanbethune2, well my doctor keeps saying I'm going to have a big baby and I'm measuring two weeks ahead so I kind of feel like I won't make it to my due date but you never know! With my first I went past my due date
@erikanbethune2, I have them too a lot I hate them!
Sorry, I just read this is your first pregnancy. Contractions, your belly will feel really tight for 30 seconds-1 minute. If they aren’t painful, just tightness, it’s most likely Braxton Hicks, which are just your body’s way of prepping you for the real thing. If they are painful, time them. If you have more than 6 in an hour, go in. Don’t take any chances with multiples, especially this early.
@erikanbethune2, I think you are okay then...you will know when you're in labor. If your water didn't break and you're not having contractions I would not worry
@itslinny the only time I leak is afrer i pee so idk if it's pee or what and I'm not having contractions im taking procardia
It’s the same as a normal pregnancy. Leaking fluid, bleeding, or more than 6 contractions in an hour go to l&d. If you aren’t sure, call your Dr.
You will know what contractions feel like when you are having them they are painful..to me they feel like horrible horrible cramps. Are you leaking fluids? Did your water break or anything like that? What are your symptoms?
@itslinny the contractions in your stomach or what contractions I've never had kids before especially not twins

Transgender children
So I just learned that in my kids school district (my kids aren't in school yet my oldest will be starting kindergarten next September) there are twin boys who identify as girls. They are 5 years old. What's your opinions on this matter given they are 5!!! I don't believe that at that age they really understand the whole thing. So the entire school had to take a course on how to handle transgender children. For example they can't say girls go this or boys do that. What are...
