Doom Catcher posted:Is anyone else completely psycho right now? I suddenly have a very short fuse and my normally very mellow self is gone. Things that have rolled off my back for 30+ years are setting me off left and right and it has gotten to the point where my personality is unrecognizable. Yes. I'm taking a night course for work, and I got a B on an assignment, and I almost started crying because it wasn't an A. I've got my first "real" prenatal appointment today (had a viability scan about 2 weeks ago). Is the doctor going to think I'm a whack job if I ask her to find ways to minimize how many times I need to have blood drawn? I have very strong physical reactions to having my blood drawn (vomiting, fainting) so if there's a way to space out the blood tests so that I need to have blood drawn fewer times, I'm all for it. (I should note that I'm not a complete needle phobe; I do perfectly well when I get vaccinations or when I needed to get a TB skin test done in the past.)

I think the only one I had was for STDs and whatnot towards the beginning of my pregnancy. I did have blood drawn again during the gestational diabetes test, but that test wasn't required, I requested it because of a family history of diabetes. Is that unusual? It's my first pregnancy, and my midwife/birth center is really non-invasive when it comes to tests and exams. (Maybe this is also weird and unusual, but I'm really hoping to go the rest of this pregnancy without any internal exams.) edit: I also almost went psycho on my husband this morning because his alarm clock kept waking ME up, and the jerk just kept going back to bed over and over. My fuse is extra-short lately when I feel like my husband is being lazy. At least the flip side of these hormones means that food tastes AWESOME.

Yeah the only blood test I had was at the first appointment, to confirm pregnancy and test for STD's and such. Well, actually they did test my blood for the gestational diabetes test (which at least here, everyone is required to take), but that was a finger prick. I imagine if Vanessa doesn't have problems with injections or the TB skin test, she won't have a problem with a finger prick!

My husband will only be able to take 2 weeks of vacation time off, but hopefully that'll help. Blood - I only had to have it drawn three times. At the first appointment, for quad screening and for gestational diabetes testing. I don't do well with needles, either, so I was glad not to have to deal with them any more than that. Haha, stfuparents. I could probably contribute enough stories for a whole site from just one Facebook friend. She does every possible annoying parent thing, including: - Posting literally nothing except child-related things. - Role-play posting AS HER KID. Like a picture with the comment "Look how big I'm getting!" Or "I love ice cream, it's yummy!" Or "Mommy found me up here after my nap!" - Potty use updates. - Constant belly photos of her current pregnancy. - Early ultrasound pics. Congratulations on your kidney bean with arms. I also hate it when peoples' profile pic is a picture of their kid, and I have several friends who do this. Like... cool, you had a baby, aren't you a person anymore? And no, I don't think I'll feel differently after having mine! On that note, if one more person tell me I'm going to be "screaming for that epidural," they're not my friend anymore.

I believe that the FMLA extends to spouses, as well, just as an fyi. Unpaid, but still.  I too thought that posting your kid's picture as your profile picture was dumb. Then I had a kid. And, well, she's cute and does silly things so it happens.  There are so many much worse things to get mad about on FB than someone posting about their kid. Plus, you can hide them.

Yeah I remember complaining about folks on Facebook who only posted about their kids. And then I had a kid, and I have pretty much no life outside of my kid, so I have nothing to post about except for my kid. I do make a point to keep myself in my profile picture, though, just because it sucks searching for someone and not being sure if the person you have found is actually the person you're looking for, because they aren't in their profile pic!

Too much USA work ethic left in me, just can't take more days off without feeling guilty. Thanks IBM for instilling a life-long fear of any sort of extended leave. Just an FYI, the Baby Bonus is paid in fortnightly instalments now, so not a lump sum. There's a calculator on Centrelink's site where you input your family income/situation and it tells you if you'd be better off financially claiming Paid Parental Leave or the Baby Bonus. Personally we're going to be a couple of grand better off getting the PPL.

I worry about this happening after having a kid, and I think that's why it bothers me so much. I can totally see posting pics if they're funny or cute, just not... every single day. And hopefully accompanied by something a little wittier than "look at me, I'm so big now! I wuv my mommy!" The profile pic thing confuses me because you are not your kid, you are you. (Aren't you?) It's especially weird when people post "OMG, got so wasted last night, LOL" and it's a picture of, like, a 2-year-old. I feel the same way about people who relentlessly post cutesy poo poo about their significant other. And people who have joint Facebook accounts. Hello, our name is JillAndJoe Smith. It's our birthday today! I just can't imagine being that wrapped up in somebody else's identity when I have a perfectly good one of my own. Sorry for the derail. Here's a pic of the awesome baby shoes I found at Ross for 3 bucks:

I know exactly what you mean. I am only 16 weeks today, but this remains one of my biggest fears, losing my identity. I consciously try not to make posts about my pregnancy. And I will do the same once the baby is born. One weird thing I've noticed though, no one else can shut up about me being pregnant and attributing EVERYTHING to me being knocked up. For example, my neck has been really stiff and sore the past few days. I am almost 100% certain this is due to sitting on my couch at a weird angle while I marathoned a TV show. I posted on Facebook how it hurts and the first comment is "That would be your hormones, my dear." No, not everything is because I'm pregnant. Another example was I commented on how I liked our national anthem because it's not all machismo and is just a cool poem about the flag. My mother and my best friend both posted about how my hormones are making me sentimental. It's really loving annoying. I haven't had any hormone problems yet this pregnancy. No wild mood swings, no crying over nothing, no snapping at people or losing control. But this makes me want to scream.

Everybody knows better than you, didn't you know? When I commented about how many damned baby clothes I inherited, my mother-in-law and her sister both clucked their tongues and laughed condescendingly. 9 months later, most of those clothes still sit in bins unused, because I am not an idiot and can still do a load of laundry on a regular basis. As for the Facebook dilemma, I keep almost all of my kid's pictures in their own folder and I post a batch once a week or so. I do it mostly for the grandparents to see his growth, and I try to keep it to a minimum. I also post a few status updates about him, but nothing disgusting or sappy or uninformative. My profile pic is of my kid, but it's an awesome shot of him about to be licked in the mouth by our dog and it makes me laugh every time I see it, so it's staying until I find something better. I have too many annoying friends on Facebook who post all the time about how in love they are, or how blessed their lives are, or every awesome detail of their awesome day. I try not to add to the histrionics.

We'd taken it in 2 weeks earlier for the same thing and it was supposed to have been fixed. Obviously it was annoying to get stranded and have to wait 2 hours for a ride, then possibly deal with more car repair bills. She said to me, "I can tell you're close to your due date. You have that 'edge' in your voice!"  What the gently caress? Um, no; I have an "edge" to my voice because I am in the middle of a conversation about my broken-rear end car. Should I sound... happier?

I can't believe all those people giving lectures about how much worse being a parent is than being pregnant - STFU already. It's like they have to one-up you or something or they're not the superior parent. I enjoy blaming random poo poo on the baby, but I also don't have a bunch of well-meaning assholes giving me lectures about what it means to be a parent, and how tired I'll be, and blah blah blah. Its mostly just because I want my husband to go up and down the 2 flights of stairs to get whatever stupid thing I forgot so I don't have to. I can deal with the stairs or BH contractions, but both at the same time is no bueno. Just hit 3rd trimester, too. That cervix punching and kicking is awful. Have you tried the inversions and whatnot from spinningbabies.com yet? Thankfully, I've found it gets my little dude to move elsewhere at least half of the time.

Thankfully, I've found it gets my little dude to move elsewhere at least half of the time. I'm almost 32 weeks right now, so maybe just slightly ahead of you guys, and up until a few days ago, I was dealing with a ton of cervix kicking/punching. It was like he was trying to kick his way out already. I think he may have turned himself at this point because now he's kicking elsewhere... but it's even more painful! Like oof, right in the middle/front of my gut. And his little baby limbs are all pointy, so it's really uncomfortable. I can't decide if I'd rather go back to the cuntpunching, though. I haven't had any contractions yet, BH or otherwise. I'm wondering when that will start happening, but I know it's completely different for everyone.

Does it ever really sink in? And can I do anything about the cervix pummeling or do I just have to deal until she's born? Not sure if it would work the same for cervix pummeling, but when baby kicks/jams a butt into my ribs, I apply firm and steady pressure downward on that part of my belly to encourage him to GTFO of that spot. It usually works, though as soon as I remove the pressure he goes right back to where he was. Sigh. I don't really get all the Facebook hate. If someone annoys me on my feed, I hide their posts. I also post whatever the gently caress I want to my own wall, assuming others will hide me if I annoy them, because it's my page and if I want to say my kid is the poo poo or I love my husband, then I'm going to. I also think my identity is comprised of slightly more than what's on my Facebook profile picture, so I don't think I'd have any qualms about setting the picture as my kid for a while. I guess we'll see how it goes after I pop this baby out. So far I've never had the urge to set my picture as one of my ultrasounds, even though I've gotten some kick rear end 3D pics of him, but if I decide one day that I want to, I guess I feel like it's my page and people can get over it. As far as people's annoying advice and comments, I've recently learned that once you hit the later stages of pregnancy you're basically not allowed to feel tired or uncomfortable because it's going to get SO MUCH WORSE right before the baby comes. While I know that's true for most people, and I do dread weeks 36-40, I'm still loving tired and uncomfortable RIGHT NOW. But dare I even hint at feeling this way, and I get FLOODED with "Oh honey child wait til you hit the end and you'll literally do anything to get that baby out of you!!!!!". I wish I knew what it was about pregnancy that brings out the most condescending and offensive sides of everyone around you. So far I haven't come up with any good passive-aggressive retorts, suggestions are welcome.

My baby just switched to pummeling my ribs and headbutting my cervix. I was cheated. The last six weeks sucked so much. Ironically, it's not the labor/delivery/caring for a newborn that makes me want to have no more kids, it's that drat last few weeks of pregnancy. Eternal thanks to Randomity and anythingbutbloo for the dermaplast suggestion. I am a much more comfortable and happy person. Also, anythingbutbloo, if you don't mind, how much blood did you lose? I'm trying to gauge how bad my own loss was.

My husband would have a better idea, as he works in the field and was more aware of everything going on at that time than I was (he says "a lot" -- super helpful, no?  ). It was enough that my doctor was called in earlier than usual during labour and, afterward, strongly recommended a blood transfusion for me. For reasons not worth going into, I really preferred to not receive blood and, after speaking with my doctor to ensure that this wasn't a terrible choice, I declined a transfusion. I was told to expect to feel "off" for several weeks. The first few days were the worst -- standing, showering, etc. really got to me fast, and I just felt extra exhausted (though I imagine some of that also had to do with just having a baby and all), but after a week or two I didn't notice it nearly as much. I also had some pretty bad baby blues for a couple weeks, so I don't imagine that helped any.Sorry I can't offer a better comparison. The best thing for me was just taking it easy, resting as much as I could (cuddling my new baby!) and waiting it out. I was also given some iron pills, if I'm remembering correctly.

I admit I was slightly disappointed that there was no .gif of a baby endlessly spinning in circles in a uterus on this site, but I'll try some of the stuff on there. Every time I've gone to the doc so far, baby's been head down, so she's either punching my cervix or she's just been on her best behavior during my exams, only to be a little brat as soon as I go home. Probably the latter, if it's my kid.

Luckily, my mom will be here to help with the cooking/cleaning/baby-sitting when I go back. Also, sorry for the lack of baby details, I completely forgot I hadn't posted them! Baby Brennanite was born Saturday morning. I awoke in the early morning to my water breaking. And breaking. Seriously, I could not believe how the fluid just keep coming. I showered and contractions started. My husband started freaking out when he realized they were way closer than 5 minutes apart. The intake nurse was shocked I was already 6 cm dilated by the time we reached the hospital. Four hours later, I had a baby. The delivery was a little complicated and I hemorrhaged afterwards, winding up in the OR and losing 44 oz of blood there. He, however, is perfect and adorable and very big. 8.5 lbs, 21.5 in long. Total labor: 6 hrs, which apparently is some kind of record for first-time mothers.

My great-grandmother kept good genealogy records, and because of her I was able to see that the big baby gene goes back to the 19th century in my family. That's on my mother's side of the family.

My husband was over 10 lbs, I was 6.14, and Julia was pretty close to the middle at 8.10! Two weeks early though - if she'd come on her due date, probably would have been 9 and a half pounds. Thank you baby for arriving early Brennanite, I'm glad you have your mom to depend on when you go back. As you know, the early weeks of parenting can be rough due to hormones, blood pressure, and sleep deprivation! My SIL also lost a lot of blood after delivery (placenta was stuck/broken apart and she ended up having to get a D&C), had 2 transfusions, and still had to take a ton of iron several times a day for months. Best of luck getting through your semester without going nuts!

My baby was a relatively big 9 1/2 pounds at birth, but at 9-months old is only 16 1/2 pounds. Just because your baby is born big doesn't mean it will stay big. Bruce is healthy and active and mainly breastfed, so every time we bring up our concerns about his weight the doctors reassure us he is perfectly healthy.

Tesla Insanely Coil posted:I have a question - do you go to the hospital as soon as your water breaks or do you wait until contractions are a certain length apart? The general advice is as soon as your water breaks (most hospitals in the US won't let you labor longer than 24 hours after your water breaks so they want to keep track of when that happens) or your contractions are five minutes apart for an hour. Most of the time your water doesn't break until you're already in active labor. Mine didn't break until I was pushing each time. That said.. my contractions were never regular. They would be 8 minutes then 2 minutes then 5 minutes then 10 minutes then 2 minutes etc. Even when I was pushing with all three of my labors. So I called my midwife as soon as it was really painful. I also had short labors; the longest was 7 hours.

The hospital told me to come in as soon as my waters broke, minus a quick shower, change of clothes and something to eat. Not only do they like to monitor you, but they want to make sure your labor is steadily progressing since any interventions are restricted by the 24 hr limit.
