We used our monitor for a long time, well after out of “baby” stage. Nothing like setting the kid down for a nap and then being able to wander down to the lakefront and enjoy a beer. I gained exactly 50 lbs too! And I bounced right back to 107 lbs, which is exactly the weight I have been since I was 18 and I can’t seem to make change. That said, it doesn’t happen for everyone.

Friday afternoon the decision was made to induce me. DH’s company’s priority that day was me and made sure he was flown home in time, even before it was known that I was for sure getting induced. He got to the hospital about an hour after I was given the gel. I wasn’t completely like my mom. I was in labour for less than five hours and pushed for 11 minutes. It can go fast – even for first time moms.

Pluto: Not A Planet, Not Up For Religious Debate

A lot of people, even people who planned for years to have a baby, wonder if they’re really ready when they see that solid line on a test. I’ve been working on the page for about a week, emailed some celebrity scientists and ordered some books so I can know more about Eris. This whole thing started because talking to my kid, she didn’t even know about it, and I thought we were a dwarf-planet inclusive household?

• First off, I was throwing up everywhere, so it was kind of hard to keep a secret.

I found the first few chapters interesting because I learned a lot about telescopes – big, little, medium size, new, old. How they’re managed and scheduled and run. Blink comparators, digital cameras, image libraries… Today is the 16th anniversary of the discovery of our most massive Dwarf Planet, Eris. I like to mark this day on my calendar as a reminder of how great a time we live in, where we are still discovering things that change our whole mental picture of the solar system. Your due date, also known as your estimated date of delivery, is the approximate date your labor might begin.

When Will My Baby Be Born?

No, your breech twin VBAC at 42 weeks is not a safe homebirth. Birth is not always safe, just because for thousands of years 90% of newborns made it. Medical technology got us to better than 90%. Remember that non-pregnant people have problems too. Do not make every conversation about your pregnancy. Do not register for clothes, toys, lotion or bath stuff… People buy them anyway.

1 night 2 hrs away is not a big deal however if it’s anything like my husbands boys trips they will not be sober. So even if he is 2 hrs away he may not be able to drive. My first was born 2 weeks early and yes I had a very long labor but cannot https://accountingcoaching.online/ imagine to have been alone for the first few hours not knowing is this it? You’d be scared and not sure if it’s go time and what if it’s 3 am and the boys r all passed out. Would he even hear his phone? I’d be worried and not comfortable.

The one thing I would change is genetic testing. With the advance of ccffdna , we are in a completely new world Spacefem.com: Pregnancy Calendar for Due Date: December 31st, 2020 here. You can get results as precise as amnio from a blood test that comes back before you are 12 weeks preg.

Your clothes will not fit. Just relax and see what happens for at least six months. Dilation and effacement are checked so you have a reference point when you go into labor. They do not tell you anything about whether your labor is starting soon. Seriously, you can be dilated to 1 and have a baby tomorrow, or dilated to 3 and walk around pregnant for weeks.

Other countries with lower c rates have better infant outcomes. Especially countries that encourage healthy low risk women to birth at home with midwives. Take your baby to the dentist around their first birthday, even if your old-school family dentist says there’s nothing to see until they’re 3-4. Advice differs on this so be conservative, I wish I had. You don’t need a DVD or program for baby sign language. There’s like four things they need to say, and you can google that for free. Any more communication you teach them just leads to them asking for more stuff, and trust me you do not want to start that.

Calculator References

No problem, I loved being fat and waddling everywhere. Worst 3 months of my life. Not pregnant, an dnot planning to become so in the near future, but I enjoyed reading your tips a lot. You might not ever need baby food, my baby pretty much went straight to the real stuff. If size 1 diapers are for 8-14 pounds, and size 2 diapers are for pounds, be ready to use size 2 diapers as soon as your baby hits 12 pounds.

You will want to burn everything you wore. Or at least have hospital staff take it away. I also had an epidural birth at a hospital and came to the dramatic conclusion that I have no idea whether or not you should get an epidural.

Fourth Trimester

There aren’t many things you can do while nursing a newborn, and they need you to sit and hold them all the time, so you will get to the end of Netflix, oh yes. Placenta encapsulation was literally invented by hippies in California, as was lotus birth, and whatever weirder stuff they’ve thought up that I haven’t heard of yet. Anyway, none of that helps us get back to our roots. No primates eat their placentas. Tell the dirty hippies to go take showers.

Do not keep them in size 1s for the “overlap”, a 14-pound bottom in a size 1 is practically asking for a diaper blowout. Take care of yourself post-partum. Have your tucks pads, colace, dermoplast, and witch hazel ready at home. Don’t stage everything perfectly for baby and neglect researching your own needs. I’ve heard that designer hospital gowns are a thing now, or special labor outfits? Horrible idea ladies, you have no idea how much grossness is involved with this process.

The Problem With Pluto

There isn’t nine of anything. There’s not a category that starts with Mercury and ends with Pluto. If we make Pluto a planet we have to make all kinds of other crap out there a planet. But honestly I’m still bothered that most of America really wants to dig in and live in a “solar system with NINE PLANETS” forever. They aren’t really understanding the issue. They just heard that Pluto got snubbed somehow by some elitist jerk scientists who want to mess with us.

The 280 day figure is based upon Naegele’s Rule and is the most common method of calculating due dates. German obstetrician Franz Naegele created his formula in 1812 and it has been referenced ever since. You can read more about the three trimesters in this article about the stages of pregnancy.

I have a friend who gained 60 and still is hanging onto about 25 which she can’t seem to get rid of. Honestly I don’t get waiting until the second trimester to tell people. First off, I was throwing up everywhere, so it was kind of hard to keep a secret. Plus I needed the support.

If you fill in the start date of your last period, it takes that date and adds 40 weeks (assuming you’ve chosen a 28 day average cycle). If you’ve chosen a different cycle, it will add or subtract days based upon that. If you choose to calculate by ultrasound date, the calculator will work out your due date based upon how far along you are on that date. This will likely yield a more accurate result.

But that is how we stay in one place, isn’t it? The work we do as scientists and engineers always keeps us searching, but all around us are the people we are holding hands with here on Earth. Maybe that’s how we can grapple with the size of the universe. There is infinity here, too. We are not insignificant.

DH would not have went. We are extremely rural, so he wouldn’t have had cell service if he was camping.

How Many Weeks Are You Pregnant For?

What is relevant is that hospitals have a very significantly higher C-section rate in pretty much all countries. It’s a fact, and it is something to try and avoid. It’s really pointless to diet like crazy right after your baby’s born to lose weight. Your bones need 9-12 months to spring back and no diet will change that.

But the fact is, Pluto is common knowledge and Eris isn’t. It’s about the same size. It’s also very easy to spell. Friends, Livejournallers, I am asking you to do something. Mark a day on you calendar for January 5th. And on that day, celebrate the dwarf planet Eris.

The world realized that Neptune and Uranus were definitely a big deal, and they should be set apart from the asteroids. That is why we don’t learn about planet Pallas, and barely learn about asteroid Pallas. There was no major protest when Ceres was quietly omitted from diagrams of the planets. I’m not sure what started me on this pet peeve against Americans who think Pluto is still a planet. My first livejournal entry about it is from 2012, when I couldn’t find nice solar system items for my toddler that didn’t have Pluto just tacked out there by itself on the end. It was 2010 when she was born!
