Questions for September Mamas

1. Yes 2. Both. Bassinet in my room and crib in the nursery. 3. Yes and have it already 4. 26+4, and some days I'm tired all the time other days I have tons of energy

1. I’ve done a loose one on the big things but will finalize it around 30-33 weeks. 2. Both. Bassinet for my room, crib for nursery. You can only use a bassinet for the first 3-5 months so I want my backup. 3. I have the major one but just ordered a hands free one from my insurance. 4. 28 weeks. I’m actually starting to feel better but we discovered a weird kidney problem I had and are fixing it. Before I felt miserable and just thought it was standard pregnancy. Turns out my kidneys were failing.

1. Yes 2. Both! 3. Yea through insurance 4. 28 and feeling generally normal but it’s harder and harder to sleep😅

Getting induced on September 7th I’m doing a bassinet

1. Yes! 2. Crib! We used the bassinet with our first & didn’t love it. We kept the bassinet though so I’m going to set it up downstairs as a safe place to set her down if I need to 3. No. I have two from my first so still deciding if I should order a third or not lol 4. 29 weeks & I feel really good! I think having a toddler around to keep me active has helped a lot

1. Not really. Just really basic things that are important to me (as little meds as possible, delayed cord clamping etc) 2. Both. Definitely using bassinet for nights the first few months. 3. Yes 4. 29 weeks and honestly not that tired . Some days are worse than others but been having burst of energy lately .

1. Yes! 2. We got the Babyletto 8in1 that starts as a bassinet & grows with the baby into a crib, toddler bed, etc. 3. Yes, ordered through insurance 4. 30weeks tomorrow and the exhaustion comes in waves. I’ll have good bursts of energy & then just feel so unbelievably pooped out😂

1. Basically. I need to write it down still but I’m waiting to find out my pain control options at my hospital. 2. Both. I need a bassinet to fit in our room and we got given a crib otherwise I’d be doing just a pack’n’play. 3. I don’t get one with my insurance but a lovely lady at church is giving me her spectra and I just need new tubing. 4. 28+1 and I’m exhausted but that’s partly because I’m getting over Covid. 😅

1. No, it usually never goes according to plan anyway. Learned that with my first. 2. I have both, but will be using bassinet for the first few months since I will be having a c section and am doing this alone. Just makes it easier in those early months. 3. Yes, I ordered my breast pump when I was about 3 months along. 4. I am 28 weeks and 1 day with a boy and I’m so exhausted during the day but dealing with insomnia at night. Not a fun combination

1. Working on it! I have a list of things I want so far and still in the process of learning all of my options. 2. Both bassinet and crib 3. Yes I ordered my breast pump through insurance recently. 4. I am 26 + 5 and the tiredness comes in waves, but doing pretty well most of the time!

1. Not yet but I probably should 2. We have the Graco Sense2Snooze Bassinet in our room for her to sleep in until she’s ready to move to the crib in her room. 3. Not yet but I will tomorrow after my OB appt 4. 29 & tired af lol

1. In my head but not official. It's pretty basic tbh, like I want an epidural asap and otherwise do whatever needs to be done to ensure healthy baby 2. Both 3. I have a prescription and need to order 4. 28 weeks. Exhausted

1. kind of- i’ve been told to aim for a birth vibe over a birth plan since things often don’t go to plan. still figuring that out. 2. both 3. no and seeing these responses leads me to think i might want to get on that 😅 4. 29 and sleep is deteriorating so tired a lot

1. Yes 2. Both. Bassinet in my room and crib in the nursery. 3. Yes and have it already 4. 28+6. I have gotten way more tired this week, third trimester is in full effect. I had a 4 hour nap today and yesterday in the middle of the day 😴

@Clara I like the term birth vibe

1. A very basic birth plan 2. Bassinet for our bedroom first 6 months or TBD 3. Just received paperwork from my OB to order pumps through insurance. Will return on next visit. 4. 26+5 - not as tired as first trimester, but napping daily which outside of pregnancy is not the norm for me

@Shore due date twins?! I’m due September 24th

1. It’s in the works. But I think I know what I want 2. Both. Crib in nursery and bassinet in my room. 3. No. 4. 28+2 some days I’m tired and other days I’m up and don’t get much sleep. My vitamin D is on the low side but has improved. So I’m working on increasing levels.

A crib for when she gets a bit bigger and a bassinet for while she’s a newborn. 3.) yes, my fiancé got me it a while ago. I got the mom cozy m5. 4.) week 27 and I’m still doing okay most days. Some days all I want to do is sleep all day.
