I was gonna say a gift card to a good bra store, but it might be too personal.

Couldn't you just ask them not to spray chemicals everywhere?

When people were listing off pregnancy symptoms, nobody told me that my main and pretty much only ones were going to be "the baby seems to be residing in your bladder" and "you will sneeze constantly" I swear to god I sneezed twenty times in a row earlier and my nose is running so much it's starting to get sore. It's driving me mad.

The sneezing seems to have mostly died down, so the only symptom I'm left with is a bladder the size of a teacup. We had a nuchal fluid + everything else check the other day and everything looked great. Just waiting for the result of the NIPT now and then I can relax. edit: Results are in, all clear!

21 weeks and I'm pretty sure they're having hiccups for the first time. Very odd feeling! Still feeling good though most days, fingers crossed it continues.

Hope it's all going well! I went to the supermarket today and just waking around caused such bad heartburn I legitimately almost threw up. Like, having to hold it in as I rushed outside. I haven't felt more than a touch nauseous at any other point so far in this pregnancy. Never had that before in my life, time to buy a massive bottle of Gaviscon.

Went to tour the hospital and get all the forms filled out in advance, and ended up in for 24 hours because the baby did a backflip and concussed themselves or something on the routine CTG. One to three minutes of lowered heartbeat and a blip on CTG #2 right at the start. 24 hours, four CTGs and a perfect ultrasound later and it hadn't repeated itself so they finally let me go. At least I got the fact I'm NB on the books, and I know now that I cannot rely on them to give me any sort of food I can actually eat, so it was a good test run. Having the hospital bag already packed so my partner could just grab it from home was an A+ decision too. Nettle Soup fucked around with this message at 14:56 on Apr 25, 2025 |

Final verdict: epidurals are magic. Modern medicine is awesome and you should take full advantage of it if you can. Complete gamechanger, inventor deserves a public holiday in their honour. Maybe two. Three if we can swing it. Baby is cool and perfect and beautiful, unlike all other babies which still look like frogs. I'm so glad it's over.

I wanted to try without, then they did a check and said "congrats, you're almost 2cm dilated"and I decided gently caress that, gently caress this, gently caress trying the alternatives, give me the good drugs. I did take a drip of paracetamol but who knows if it did anything. I could move and feel my feet mostly normally, but felt nothing pain-wise after it went in, right up until they started me on the oxytocin for pushing. Initially went in on the 20th for a final routine ultrasound and the doctor said they were only 2.7kg, instead of the 3.1 estimated at the last scan two weeks before. She measured 3 times. So I got to stay there and be induced 3 days early. It took 2 days for the pills to take, then my waters broke at 3am on the 23rd, which was the due date anyway. Epidural went in somewhere around 9am and it was over at 20:15ish after 15 minutes of pushing. There was some drama because they wete facing in a very awkward direction, wouldn't move, had crapped in the water, and every now and again a contraction would drop the heartrate to 50, but baby came out crying, perfect, and 3.1kg after all. We'll see about the the parenting thread, I'm very aware of oversharing things that will live on the internet forever. Nettle Soup fucked around with this message at 14:21 on May 28, 2025 |

Hadlock posted:... Yeah I didn't want to tell anyone until after the NIPT results came through and I could breathe easier. You need to think seriously about if you're gonna have the test, and what to do with the results if they're bad.

It's for mainly different varieties of Downs. You can get it done at around 10 to 12 weeks.
