Born at 33 weeks

Born at 33 weeks after 3 days of doctors trying to stop contractions and finally water breaking. My son has had reflux issues and stomach issues and constantly crying and whinging. Its very stressful because i just dont know why hes just so miserable. Anyone have a similar story? He was born on valentine's day by emergency c section and the whole birth experience was traumatizing to me...he stayed in the nicu 13 days with feeding and temperature issues.. just hoping to move on

You will move on from it and your baby will grown bigger and stronger! Premie babies go through a lot in the beginning because they’re learning to do things before their time. Think of your baby as a tiny little warrior just trying to get through it too. He’ll change as each day goes by and the time will fly!

Going thru similar stuff right now... He was in nicu 15 days with oxygen, heart and blood sugar issues. Now he's having all kinds of digestive problems and I don't know what to do 😩 Breastmilk gives him reflux, formula gives him constipation, he won't burp, vomits alot, etc etc etc constantly miserable, arches his back and screams 😭

Would this be a red flag for a future/potential employer?

Have been communicating about interviewing for an open position via email. The hiring manager first responds at 9pm. I respond the next morning with availability for an interview. They don't respond the next day, so the following day I follow up. They don't respond that day or the next (yesterday), but then just replied at 10pm setting an interview time. J was annoyed that the communication was so delayed. And I was even more annoyed that I kept being emailed late at night. Is this a sign I don't want to work for them?

Hospital Bag?

Hey everyone! When is the right time to pack your hospital bag and what on earth do I need? I see so many different websites and advice on social media that it all gets very overwhelming. Thank you so much for any help.

Things you wish you’d do before C-Section

I’m having my section on Sunday, and trying to write a bunch of ‘self-care’ type things I want to do before hand.
Now I’m not talking the practical things like setting up changing or feeding stations etc. I’m talking things for you like shaving your legs or dying your eyebrows 😂
I know from my last section that I’m not gunna feel my best so I want to do everything I can to feel good! I’ve got a fresh haircut already!
So what are some things you did / wish you did before your c section?
