Gertrude - sounds like they are doing a pretty good job at neither under or over managing your b/p situation
And chuck pls don't feel bad for not continuing with b/fing. When things go wrong it can be EXTREMELY painful and it's completely unreasonable to expect anyone to continue on when there's no good lactation support available! So pls don't feel bad. I weaned my son earlier on then I had intended b/c I had just entered into a new relationship and thought that it would make being intimate awkward. Now there's a selfish reason to quit and feel guilty about!
My ctx died off. Had the occassional one this morn but they are much milder then before and far less frequent. The bloody show also ended and has been replaced by just tiny amounts of clearmucus. To make matters worse I'm sick
Yesterday I was feeling slightly stuffy and today I can't breathe through my nose, my sinuses feel as though they are about to explode, my throat hurts and I feel like I'm going to die. Today my goal is to rest rest rest, soak in a bath, eat lots of home made chicken soup and hopefully be better by tonight. m/w just called to see how the consult went and said that she received the bpp report which estimated baby to weigh 4000g. I tend to make big babies but I had thought this one was smaller. My sfh is only 37, baby is not in my pelvis at all, I have ample fluid and I feel much smaller then I did with my 9lbs 3oz daughter.
They were off by nearly 2lbs with my son [they said he was approaching 10lbs but he was just 8lbs] so I'm excited to find out whether they were way off again or if they got it close and somehow there is a whole lotta baby hiding in there. I somewhat enjoy it when technology proves to be inaccurate. Interestingly the tech also wrote on the report that the est gest age is only 39 weeks and that he feels at this point further bpp's aren't necessary.
2nd time - hope things are progressing better for you!
