Lily!! You're correct - I just realized I misspoke - thank you for pointing this out. Though the complete picture of GERD in pregnancy is multifactorial, PROGESTERONE is the main smooth muscle relaxant and most likely major contributor here. Pinning this for clarification!

I read about mine on the u/s report and the doctor never went over it with us at the initial appointment . Asked for clarification and didn’t get anything other than monitor for bleeding….. ended up in the ER for bleeding. Then the second appointment we just had told me “SCH are not a big deal” , how I didn’t call and I did and corrected her that I was on hold because it was 9:30 pm, and then tried to pass the buck to the ER doctor not calling the on call OB. No ma’am. You let my husband and I down by not going over anything and what to expect, when it is serious to give us peace of mind on what to do. Needless to say changing doctors!

I'm sure that they did imaging and an EKG. They don't usually just send you home with nothing. I have GERD, asthma, and panic attacks, so I get bad chest pain. Sometimes it's bad enough to go to the ER. I've never been sent home without at least an EKG and imaging. It did take 3 trips to finally get the asthma diagnosed though (despite having O2 being super low and being put on supplemental oxygen), so hospitals definitely aren't perfect, especially when you have mental health issues and get dismissed, but they usually take chest pain pretty seriously even if it turns out to be heartburn. Where I live, it's mandatory to do those tests at the very least

We're one of those families. I've had *two* stillbirths, and two surviving preemies - including a twin pregnancy with only one survivor. I belong to a lot of loss and complication communities - these issues aren't *that* rare, and losses are fairly *common* - especially early MC, but TV shows do NOT want to show those common negative outcomes. They want fantasies, or drama. TV shows LIE... or over emphasize minor issues and details, but ignore the important parts. If your only knowledge of puberty, fertility, sex, conception, development, pregnancy, pregnancy tests, complications, losses, antenatal care, labour, delivery, NICU, breastfeeding and recovery is *TV shows*... there's going to be some HUGE, harmful, misleading gaps ☹️ Most people do not want to know about complications or tragedies, but they still NEED to, so they are prepared themselves, can support others... and they can be grateful for happy outcomes. It's COMMON for people who had complications to be minimized, criticized, silenced, mocked and especially BLAMED by "friends" and "family" for their tragedy. Which is HORRIBLE. Many have invitations for family events like showers, christenings & weddings withdrawn. They end up excluded, as if their tragedy is "infectious". You hear a lot of "nobody wants to hear that", rather than simply support or listening. Even supposed "support" resources erase or refuse to "allow" losses and tragedies. Our church, for example, REFUSED to offer any support, no funeral, no burial, no prayers, no memorials, nothing. We and my surviving children were not offered somewhere to go to remember them. It's very hurtful. If you ARE mourning a loss, find a loss support group online. There are support resources, even if you are in a hospital. Talk to the nurses, they can be amazing advocates.

I’ve had two miscarriages and two live children my miscarriages were 13 and 15 years ago and I saw a TikTok tonight that hinted about about a toddler giving his angel sister a kiss and I had a meltdown and cried for like 20 minutes

When I was pregnant with my first child, I had intense morning sickness. I thought that if I sprayed some Bath and Body Works spray on me, it would calm my stomach (the scent was a fresh-smelling mango); however, the opposite happened. It not only made me rush to the toilet to puke, but that connection to the mango scent stuck around after I gave birth. I still get intense nausea when I smell it, and my child is 10. It's so weird how that works.

I was aware of being pregnant rather early, and my children were active enough before birth that my husband didn’t like me to cuddle behind him as we went to sleep, because they were kicking him in the back. However, A relative by marriage learned she was pregnant about the same time I learned I was pregnant with my oldest. My understanding is that she had had irregular periods from the get-go. Also, she had been (reportedly) sexually active since about age 13. (Primarily? Exclusively? With her now husband) She had been told that she would probably never conceive naturally. As I said, we found out about our pregnancies at about the same time, yet her baby was born in September, and mine was born 12 weeks later in December. So she would have been roughly 20 weeks when she found out. I know of another woman (the niece of a friend) who had been told by doctors that even with assistive reproductive technology, she and her husband would likely never have a biological child, as both had fertility issues. It wasn’t until after she had lost both her mother and her husband to cancer, that she confided in my friend (an RN) that she thought she had cancer too. Feeling bloated. Food aversions. Couldn’t eat much at any one time. Shortness of breath. Couldn’t get comfortable etc. Turns out, she was about 8 months pregnant when she confided in my friend. I can’t remember if the baby was born on his mother’s birthday or his father’s 🤔🤷🏼

It’s so interesting to watch these weird pregnancies, knowing that I had a weird one too. I had a mini stroke at 34 weeks pregnant, which in itself was terrifying. Even more terrifying is that they couldn’t find a reason, just “it could happen when you’re pregnant”. Definitely a scary moment!

As soon as he handed me to my mom he passed out for the amount of blood (the swing landed right in the middle of my forehead and obviously opened it up so you can imagine the amount of blood). And like father like daughter, I'm also super coward with blood. Once I was cleaning up some stitches and noticed one was bleeding, finished up and then went straight to bed asking my parents to call the doctor and ask what was going on while I recovered strength because I was gonna pass out.

Your dad is a hero!

Can you do a video on ectopic pregnancy? I just had one on December 23rd that ruptured and had to have emergency surgery. Luckily for me I had already done my research on it and knew what it was but they said most women don’t.

That’s so scary. Are you ok? I hear it’s so painful.

@@Natasha-yq6df Thank you I appreciate it. I think it’s just something that needs to be talked about a little more. So many women I’ve spoken to have said they didn’t even know that it could happen.

I had a friend go through an ectopic rupture too. She had no idea she was pregnant at all. Sounds awful.

In 2017 I had a baby that I didn't know I was pregnant with. My second baby, I had him in my bathtub within an hour of my water breaking. At first the EMTs thought maybe I was having a miscarriage, we were all so, so shocked when a full term, healthy, live baby popped out. We call him our bathtub baby ❤ so traumatizing, so insane, even still to this day. He is almost 4! I only gained 10 lbs but didn't look pregnant and I had blamed that 10lbs on just quitting my job and being home eating more, I had fairly normal periods the whole time, and never felt any movement that I didn't pass off as gas. I was treated horribly at the hospital, they didn't belive me. On top of such a traumatizing situation it gave me a lot of postpartum depression being treated the way I was. I've finally started to pull myself out of that depression but even just the little things people said or the way they kept trying to pull "the truth" out of me, trying to manipulate my truth into saying that I knew about him. It really had an impact on my mental health to the point that I was so stuck in my mind trying to think if I convinced myself that I wasn't pregnant but I knew damn well, for years prior to having this baby, I never even had thought about pregnancy. I wish some doctors understood how to handle these situations better, as to not hurt the mental or physical health of anyone involved. It takes time to heal from. A lot of time.

My great gran was born 2 months early. She was 2 pounds also. In 1925!!! The fact she survived is a miracle

Being a mom to a NICU baby this hit all the feels! Seeing your child stay behind in the hospital, all the wires and medical equipment, the cpap breathing for them, it is very much overwhelming. So glad this couple had a great outcome!

All of my babies were bald too. And that baby was so adorable.

I was bald until I was a year and a half, as were both of my siblings. So imagine my brother’s surprise when my niece was bald until she was almost two (and the hair she did have was only on the back and sides of her head 😂). But she and I both have thick wavy hair now so it was worth the wait I think.

Why did they never call an ambulance.... oh wait America too expensive

I don’t understand how some women don’t “show”. My first baby I didn’t show till around 5 1/2 months but when i did start to show it was like over night!!!
