@BabyD1111229 I was not vaccinated as a child and pretty much perceived things in a sense that no one believed I thought it on my own. And people often thought my parents either lied or taught me to say such things at very young age. I rarely get sick too and 38 yo now
@AldaMetaX That’s really good. I’m glad for you that they respected that. I’m preparing myself to request delay cord clamping, and say no to vit k, eye ointment, hep B. A bit nervous bc I’m not sure how they are going to respond to that. I heard stories where moms got completely ignored
@AldaMetaX@stopvaccinating I’m always skeptical about leaving your newborn out of sight, they would jab your baby, I’ll guard my baby 24/7. Were you in NICU with your baby all the time? Asking for myself, gonna give birth in a couple months hopefully to a full term baby so I won’t have to leave her in NICU
@ChildbirthJoy I had test done before when I found out I don’t have iron deficiency, high RBC counts but slightly low hemoglobin, the pathologist confirm it’s consistent with beta thalassemia trait. Before I was pregnant my yearly ferritin has always been consistently between 98-108.
@ChildbirthJoy Can I DM you so I can show you what she said? I don’t have anemia due to lack of iron. I carry beta thalassemia minor, I have no symptoms, my body compensates with high RBC, because my RBC is small by nature, and my hemoglobin is always 105. Other than that, everything is fine.
@be_like_ice@justwritewhatev I did all of that alone, except yoga class, with available and free tools online, no therapy nor therapists, just because I’m an introvert. Introverted individuals tend to have better capability to reflect and self teach. You might need some external help if needed though.
@be_like_ice@justwritewhatev I fixed it 2 years ago. Took me 36 years including 30 years of being unaware + 6 years of actively seeking healing. Found a good man and got married right after healed. Now I’m fucking useless to my husband and we both love it that way.
@be_like_ice@justwritewhatev I just wanted to be happy my whole life, seeked knowledge of how to be happy, listened to a lot of podcasts on psychology, identified my patterns, applied the knowledge, started yoga, learned to meditate, spend time in nature.
@thepairodocs@ryangerritsen That’s almost double my taxed hardass earning of 8 hours a day + 2 hours commuting. That’s why I stopped anticipating and got a husband, easy fix for me 😪.
@ChildbirthJoy That’s my thought. No way I take that synthetic folic acid at this point. Based on my midwife’s word by word verbatim, I need to take 3-5 folic acid + 400 IU vitamin E together with iron to help absorb the iron better. And Pregvit is perfect with that combo.
@ChildbirthJoy Also through the 31 week ultrasound they said my baby’s percentile is 72th, meaning baby is on the big side, and moved my expected due date 2 weeks earlier to fit the 50th percentile. I don’t want an induced labor just to fit their percentile, you know.
