- Here's a new stay home day in the life of a pregnant mom of two quarantine vlog! Having a pandemic pregnancy is full of anxiety, and I'm unsure if I should go to my first doctor's appointment and ultrasound. Let me know how you'd navigate this during this time- would you stay home or go to the doctor? Thanks for your help, support, and prayers! Hope you enjoy this day in the life of a stay at home mom with our routine, schedule, cook with me, and clean with me full of mommy motivation for you too!
Love,
Brianna K xoxo @bitsofbri

Ultrasound tech here! The only thing we check for at this time is the viability of the pregnancy. Unless you are experiencing severe cramping or bleeding, it is much safer to stay home during this time than to risk getting yourself sick and putting unnecessary stress on your body and baby. I scan sooo many moms that are late to care. Sometimes moms don’t come in until 20-30 weeks for their first appt. We are unable to detect fetal abnormalities until that time anyway, so it is definitely much safer to stay home and protect you, baby, and your kiddos. You can always call your OB office and see what the provider has to say, but we are asking all people at my hospital to stay home for unnecessary exams unless we are doing BPP’s and growth scans for high risk 30+ week pregnancies. Hope this helps. Praying for you and your family. ❤️
You are the prime example of a little knowledge, and minimal education, being a scary thing. Your post is full of fallacies. Many fetal abnormalities are detected way before '20-30' weeks.
@kristen RUDE !
I get there's a pandemic- but I had a full molar pregnancy that was detected at my first 9 week ultrasound- my doc told me I could have bled out and died if I hadn't been seen to have it removed immediately. for those that don't know what a molar pregnancy is you are positive on a pregnancy test and for a blood test. but its a tumor growing instead of a baby- and it tricks your body into thinking its pregnant. you get all the symptoms too. but its very dangerous. 1 in 1000 pregnancies get it. and I had a full molar pregnancy and the tumor was cancerous. if you want reassurance and you're scared of the hospital setting, go find a temporary free standing OB to get the ultrasound- for peace of mind- then go to your regular dr when you're ready for the rest of your pregnancy. just my thoughts, given a personal situation I've been in.
Crystal Mateer you are correct. But molar pregnancies are typically first detected by an extremely high beta HCG in your bloodwork, which I guess I just assumed she already had completed. So sorry to hear about your loss.
Im in the same boat we are the same week 6 weeks and i had cramping for 3 days and bleeding but not bad. Went to er. I am unable to go see a obgyn because of insurance bs now i have to wait longer. I've cried of fear of something going wrong.
I’m sorry Bri but I’m with Adam. Don’t go for the time being. 😔
Bri, buy a doppler on Amazon. Cheap and you can listen to your baby’s heartbeat anytime you want at home 🏡 💗
That’s true. It‘s really not save at the moment. The only thing what you can looking for is a doctor who not works in an hospital. That’s better then nothing. But I don’t know if this is possible in USA because I live in Germany. Stay healthy.
At this point on the pregnancy even if you don’t hear a heartbeat you still would be told to wait a while longer. If you have no severe cramping, bleeding then your body is accepting this pregnancy as normal. Trust your body there’s tons of people who don’t find out they are pregnant until much further along and they are fine. Keep up with prenatals and hydration!
I am also pregnant and I'm honestly not scared about the timing. We dont have to visit the doctor the number of times we think that we need to. Dont stress yourself out about it, just stay home and dont go ❤
Same here. I’m 13 weeks and feel like a lot of people are just being a bit too much with everything. If you’re taking the necessary precautions, you should be fine.
@@surlespasdondine its really not. My first ultrasound was when I was 5m pregnant. Got to find out the gender the first time we saw her. Very cool, but totally unnecessary. If I never would have seen one doctor my entire pregnancy, she would have been born the exact same way. And truthfully, all it can really do is create more worry.
J Ramsay Sadly for us high risk mamas out there we have to attend appointments and as a first time mom I wouldn’t dare not go. The nice thing is that my doctors offices are taking great precautions to keep us safe which I appreciate🙏🏻
@@gabydoss2027 as a ftm I was also high risk and didnt see a dr until 22w. We way over monitor pregnant mamas, it's genuinely not worth the risk going in imo
@Dusty this is 100% not true for all high-risk mothers. Just because you went for the first time at 22w doesn’t apply to everyone else who is high risk. I am high-risk, and having had a preemie, it is imperative I get seen regularly. Having seen a high-risk doctor with my second child helped me get to full term with medical intervention. I very well could have had a preemie again. Everyone is different.
stay home. women have been having babies forever. you will be fine. i agree with your husband.. wait until you are much further along.. keep taking care of yourself and trust
Your best bet would just be call your pediatrician or OB and get their advice...maybe there's precautionary questions they can ask to determine for you if it's worth going in.
I was going to suggest the same thing. Sometimes people don't even know they are pregnant till now or later. You are healthy your family is healthy. I think the best thing to do is continue what your doing. Taking care of you, doing what your body is telling you, in terms of eating and exercise as well as sleep. Maybe you can do a video appointment with your doctor now and schedule something with them for 18 weeks for an ultrasound. If you went out to the doctor and did get sick. Stay home stay healthy, you have so many people praying for you.
@@ellendrake5565 Yeah Mama B you've got this! You've had 2 babies already so you know how to listen to your body and you'll know if it's time to go. For right now, it's simply not worth the risk in my opinion ❤️
I was going to say the same thing. Call your OBGYN and see what they suggest. They can help you weigh the benefits versus risk.
I had my first baby 11 weeks ago, and I'm still bringing him to his pediatrician appointments (which is a doctor's office located in our hospital). His doctor's office and the hospital are taking extra precautions across the board - as I'm sure all medical offices are now. If it were me I'd want to go just for peace of mind, but I'd just wear a mask and take a shower/change clothes the minute I got home.
Good luck to you! I'm excited to watch your pregnancy journey!
Yes this!
I got into a bike accident and had to go for x rays recently. I was so afraid! I wore a mask, I wore gloves. I called ahead and told them how afraid I was. They took extra precautions. I made sure not to cross contaminate . I came home and stripped in the garage. I went straight to the shower. If you realllllly feel the need to go, you can just be extra cautious.
You should contact your doctor to see what they recommend. A lot of OB offices and hospitals have protocols in place to protect those who are pregnant or not sick. They may have a separate entrance or masks/gloves available. If it eases your anxiety, I would go. Personally, I would go.
Yes!!
Some women don’t even know they’re pregnant for months. You’ll be fine.
100% agree! I didn't know until 8 weeks and no appointment until 11 weeks. It was all ok
Yes my first appointment was at 11 weeks.
You asked God for a baby in His timing and he gave one to you in His timing, trust HIM.
Hormones, can cause anxiety.
satsuma 1 HE has everything to do with you getting pregnant.
Makeup Artist Shari Hardt How am I ignoring the ones who lost a baby?
I’m also pregnant, 14 weeks and have an appt this week. I’ve called to reschedule. They insisted it was safe because of all the measures they are taking but in my opinion it’s just not worth the risk. I’m also an RN myself. As long as you’ve had no symptoms that would be worrisome, there is no reason to go at this time. It should be a little reassuring since you’ve had 2 healthy pregnancies. I know it’s hard! This is my third baby too! Good luck
If you could post an actual grocery list associated with the meal ideas you give us, that would be great!
Call your doctors office and get their opinion. Maybe they can send you to another location that is not at the hospital.
So I want to just comment about getting the doctors office opinion. You will most likely get someone at the reception area. And they may not be able to advise you correctly and then set you up for an appointment. For example, My daughter had a well check up on Friday of last week, and I called to reschedule it. And the receptionist acted like it was no problem for me to come in. I was shocked at her naïve demeanor. I told her I would call back and reschedule when it was safe to come to the office.
We have the ability to talk to nurses on staff, not just the receptionist, so maybe ask to talk to the nurse instead of a receptionist.
Leave yourself to Lord hands.
It is OK.
He allowed to be pregnant.
He will also protect you from any danger, you and your baby.
Stay home and pray!!! Nothing to worry about!!!
Be faith and strong!!!
Let the situation pass and you will hear the heartbeat!!!
Just my opinion.
Love you!!! 💋🇬🇷

Hi Brianna!!! May I remind you of something. Before you found out you were pregnant, you said that it is all in God’s timing as to when He will bless you with another baby, well you are within God’s timing. He blessed you with this pregnancy in during this time, so it’s not a surprise for him! He knew the circumstances. So, trust Him! Let Him be your peace is mind. Trust Him for a healthy baby!! Let Him be your source!! Hope this help a little!!
This is so sweet and encouraging and TRUE!
I just had baby #3. With all three pregnancies. I was never sent for an ultrasound until I was 10 weeks and this last one was at 14 weeks. Don’t be scared you have a wonderful family to help you keep going. Take it day by day.
I didn’t get into my first OB appointment with my daughter until I was 12 weeks along..everything will work out and be okay❤️
I’m w/Adam on this one. Don’t go use or buy a Doppler for the time being just so that you can have a piece of mind.❤️In the mean time stay home, stay safe. Sending you love from NJ.
I’m 30 weeks pregnant and my doctor and most OB doctors at least in my area are only seeing patients virtually right now. He said he’d see me at labor and delivery next! Which sounded crazy as I know there’s usually so many more checks during third trimester. Will be praying for your decision- id recommend calling your doctor and seeing what they suggest or go with your gut- it’s never led me astray.
Love your channel so Much! So thrilled you are pregnant!
Call your office but honestly I wouldn't. I'm sure they can screen you through a phone call or telemedicine appointment to see if it's necessary. I work in a hospital, it's the last place anyone should be right now unless you are really sick
Please pray for my husband who is in hospital right now. He had a heart attack and I am not able to go see him as hospital said no. I am loosing my mind. 💔
Praying for you this morning ❤️
Everything will be OK🌺🌼🌸🌷🌹 We pray for you and your husband😇
i wish your husband is fine and better now god bless him
I'm paying for your husband
The odds of you hearing the heartbeat that early is unlikely anyway!! I would wait until your 12 week if that (even tho I found out at 5 weeks my doctor didnt need to see me until then anyway!!) . I would call and based in their recommendation do what they say! They may only being seeing essential patients, your appointment will most likely just be a confirmation of pregnancy which your already 100% you are! Stay home keep you and baby safe! You can be a fetal dobbler to have at home to check yourself (but like I said I was about 14 weeks before I heard anything with both my pregnancies!
I love Adam's comment "we will be fine...as long as you dont go to the doctor" lol I agree! My last pregnancy we conceived with an IUD and it was so scary but we had to wait until 10ish weeks to even see if it was a viable pregnancy. Thank goodness our baby is here and just celebrated her second birthday on the 28th!! But we couldnt even have doctors appointments because there was nothing they could do. I know the reassurance would be wonderful but the risks truly outweigh the benefits at the moment. You both know what's best for your family but after using a midwife I found out we dont have to have as many appointments as we have been told as long as there are no other complications. Praying for you and your family and so thankful for your channel!
My mom is a nurse and says do NOT go unless you think something is going wrong hospitals are the number 1 place it’s spreading because of the lack of PPE and readiness to handle the situations not only for this virus but the flu that’s going around as well. Even if you don’t get sick you could bring it home to your kids and husband.
Make a call. You may be able to do your ultrasound in another clinic. Or they may recommend waiting to come in. A pregnancy multivitamin you should check into. Also switching to a decaf coffee if you haven't already as it can help with any pregnancy jitters you may be having. Stay safe.
I would see if the doctor had telehealth available. It might calm your fears to have a virtual appointment. I wouldn’t go in unless it was absolutely necessary for testing.
I'm honestly surprised your OB didn't cancel the appointment, in my area all non-emergency appointments are cancelled, I would call them to see if they think it's worth the risk and wear a mask if possible
Hi Bri, love you and your family!! I live in ohio also and I know there are a lot of cases at the hospitals where you are at!! PLEASE DON’T GO!! GODS GOT YOU AND THE PRECIOUS BABY! RELAX AND STAY HOME. XOXOXOX
I agree with Adam!! Do NOT go for ultra sound!!! Stay home and stay safe!! You have 2 kids to think about too!!
Aww bless you mama! My heart broke for you you know whenever you said like why are we having a baby during a pandemic. I know it’s scary and it’s hard because I know you want that reassurance to just make sure that Baby is ok. I totally get it but I do feel like it’s best if you just stay home and hopefully God willing this craziness will all be over soon. And I know that you know your baby is a blessing it is scary because of the things that we are all going through and facing right now but just trust in God that he’s going to take care of you and your little baby and your family and hang onto his faith and his beautiful promises that everything will be OK and that baby is going to be OK.
Well I have asthma and the Drs are doing everything to keep me away from their offices and definitely stay away from the hospital if I do not actually need to be there. Doing video calls. God Bless.
Love your channel. My girls are 13 and 17. I work in ICU at our local hospital and I have to admit that my stomach is in knots. I have a hard time just thinking about going to work. Throw up multiple times daily. Please pray for my anxiety. I know we are doing everything we can. God bless us ALL!
I think you're right to not go right now. It's always better to play it safe unless there's a reason you need to go. Stay safe and try to get a little bit of rest mama. 😍 Prayers for a happy, healthy pregnancy and baby! So exciting!!! 👶❤️
When I was pregnant I bought a fetal doppler off of amazon. That helped my anxiety alot!
You've done this over and over...you don't need to go until you need anomaly scans...and some people don't even choose to have those. You know what's normal for you during pregnancy. I'd go with that and only go when absolutely essential.
Thank you for posting this. I usually love watching her videos but I feel like she’s over Exaggerating just for views. She’s been pregnant before and we all know how important it is to stay home right now. Why would she even consider exposing herself 😒
@@mcar3023 Its important to stay home for everything but necessary things! Unless your doctor tells you its unsafe go to your appointments!
I agree with Adam Bri. If you go then there’s added worry of if you put yourself and the baby at risk. It’s okay love. Baby is good and you’re good. Just a few more weeks to go. Hope you have a great week. Be safe❤️❤️❤️
Totally agree with Adam! Don’t go! Stay home! You have this mama! You’ve had two babies/pregnancies before, stay safe at home in such uncertain times 🧡
Don’t go! Wait until your 12 week appointment to do the ultrasound and get checked...even if you go at 8 weeks you are still going to be nervous
I’m going to my appointment. I’ll be 8 weeks, they are super careful at the doctors. I think it’s best for your mental health to go ❤️
I am 6 weeks pregnant and I’m a Lab Tech at our hospital. I have to go in to work everyday. Please pray for the pregnant healthcare workers that are on the front lines.
Love your channel!! I totally understand wanting to hear the baby’s heartbeat to make sure that the baby is ok cause I would be the same way too!! Right now though I feel that the risk is too high for you to take that chance! As hard as it would be I would have to leave it in God’s hands and just keep faith that all is good and that little baby is doing good! As soon as things get better than that’s when I would go. Of course it’s all up to you and how you feel and whatever would make you feel the best! You do you!! 🙂
I’m with Adam - unless you are having serious complications, you should absolutely stay home. If you can do a call with your OB I would recommend that, maybe even ask about things they recommend! Praying for you!
I’m a Sonographer for an OB/GYN office. I do “new OB” appointments all the time, it’s totally fine if they aren’t done at 8 weeks! You are usually able to see baby better the farther along you are anyways. I think it will be okay to push out your appointment, unless you start having severe pain/bleeding (which I’m sure you’re aware that you’d need to go in if that were the case). Again, I’m a Sonographer, not a nurse or doctor. But I just wanted to give you my personal professional opinion😊🤍
Emily Bonds hi fellow sono friend!! Haha. I totally agree! ❤️
Rachel Way ahhh awesome!!! Hi! Glad you agree, made me a little nervous to give semi medical advice🤪🤍
Keep taking those prenatal vitamins and keep your stress down. Give it time and think you will be just fine. Stay safe for you your fam and little baby.😊
I’m 24 weeks pregnant and still go to all my doctor appointments. My husband can’t come with me. But I bring my Lysol wipes and spray, hand sanitizer, and my N95 mask. The ladies there have been doing a great job to have everything cleaning and sanitized. I have to do my glucose test next. Stay safe💕
Yes we aren’t getting any meals out either. All my friends think I’m insane but it’s an extra risk. You don’t know who’s preparing your food / washing hands or coughing sneezing etc it isn’t worth it idk how people do it 😷🤭🙅🏼♀️🤢
Same for my family too. What are the people, who prepare the food, doing after their shifts? Who are they hanging out with? I think it is wise to just eat at home!
Sandra Polette agreed!!
It’s no different than going to the grocery store and buying the food there and taking it home. You also don’t know where the shelf stocker has been either or what they’ve been touching. Or the cashier. Or all the surfaces that your food packaging will touch between being received into inventory at the store and getting to your home. 🤷🏻♀️ so it’s either door dash, risk going to the store or wait 3 weeks for a time slot for grocery pick up/ delivery
Genesis Rios I don’t go to the store my husband does. And everything’s wipe down with antibac before entering my home. So yes it’s safer you can’t wipe down fast food 🤦🏼♀️
Thank you for doing this. Thank you for supporting the medical assistants and nurses and doctors 💜 we appreciate you going without so we can protect our families' lives
I’m sorry but why does Adam always have a bandage on his chin?
Lol yes please tell us Bri!
Accident at the gym
Pure luck lol 🤣
I thought it was blond chin hair 😂😂
@@sarahburkimsher5204 I did too! 😆🤦♀️
I would absolutely not go to an appointment in a hospital. If it was me, I would find a new OB in a free standing building. Whatever you do, don’t feel guilty for wanting reassurance. It’s totally normal to want to hear the heartbeat. You’re a momma, it’s your nature. I would really try to find another OB. 💗 sending your good vibes
The safest thing for your baby is for you to stay healthy. For you to stay healthy staying home is best. In Canada we don’t typically get 1st ultrasound until 14 weeks. The ultrasound can’t “do” anything to help the baby this early anyways. Everything will be ok and just keep reminding yourself that. You are doing everything your baby needs :)
Hey Brianna! Love the video! Hope you are staying safe and healthy! Love you ❤❤
Love these DITL videos ! Gives me so many great ideas for my own since I love your channel so much !! Thanks for sharing :)
THAT Caitlin Stark I love her channel too !!
Ellorie Dobra I’m excited to see her pregnancy journey 🙌🏻❤️
THAT Caitlin Stark same 😂
I’m 12 weeks pregnant and decided to go to the hospital for my fetal Doppler visit last week. It was fine, they took my temperature outside the hospital asked me questions and then gave me an arm band that I had been vetted. I wore a mask and gloves and was careful about cross contamination. I also changed my clothes as soon as I got home and put them in the wash. There were only 2 other pregnant patients in the waiting room and I didn’t have to wait long. I’m glad I went, I had a long debate about going too and almost canceled. I talked to my doctors nurse and she encouraged me to still come and if the doctor thought it was important and safe then I decided I trusted her judgement. But you do what you feel comfortable with and feel safe doing. Congrats on your growing family!
I am with Adam on that one Sorry Bri! I was already 13 weeks pregnant with my second child when I found out no symptoms before that. Do not need to worry about anything your dad is looking after him💕
Hey Bri, I'm a newish subscriber and I appreciate you praying for us. Would you mind praying for us mommies struggling with anxiety? Just that it doesn't consume us? Thanks bunches!
Christina Bauer in Jesus name, covering you in prayer,♥️
Love you queen! Be safe and take care of that bambino
Sending you a big hug ❤️ Pray and try to keep pushing trough Bri. You got this ❤️
I’m 9 weeks pregnant and i did go to my first visit last week. Ob offices are taking precaution on who they are scheduling to come in. When i went to my ob office i was the only one there. I felt very safe. I’m pretty sure they wouldn’t have scheduled me if they didn’t think it would be. I got to see my baby and hear the heartbeat and went home feeling very happy that i went.
As a mom of 7, I recommend that you skip the 8 week appointment. The risk of contracting something at the hospital is FAR greater (considering “the current situation”) than the risk of anything that might be missed by skipping the 8wk appt.
Take care, sweetie - you’re doing great, and He is still on His throne. ❤️
I am 31 weeks and I have missed my last two appointments I’m supposed to be going every two weeks at this point it’s just not safe or worth it
You can order a machine from amazon to hear the heartbeat. I also agree with Adam. Just stay home and focus on what you can control. Thanx for sharing. Cheers
Im currently 25 weeks pregnant and had to go in for my appointment. My OB is at a hospital as well. The hospital is open in one way and before you go in you have to get your temperature checked, ask questions about traveling fever and cough, mask on, and a special wrist band that shows you’ve been checked before walking into the hospital. a security guard escorts only you up to the doctors office. You have to sanatize your hands before going in. I was super thankful for the precautions that my hospital is doing and everything was totally fine and not scary at all! They just ask that if you’re not feeling well or have any of the symptoms to reschedule
Praying for you everyday❤️ hope everything works out. God wouldn’t have made this happen if you couldn’t handle it🤍
From my previous experience at go. I had a “missed” miscarriage at 6 weeks but didn’t find out until my 8 week ultrasound. A “missed” miscarriage is when there are no signs of a miscarriage. I did not have cramping, I did not bleed, and I still had all the pregnancy symptoms. At my eight week ultrasound is when they confirmed that my pregnancy was not viable and ended probably around six weeks but my body didn’t do anything about it. If I would’ve had waited longer I could’ve gone into toxic shock syndrome. I ended up having to get an emergency D&C
I had a similar experience at 10 weeks with my first pregnancy. I had a missed miscarriage and needed a uterine aspiration. Went on to have a healthy baby girl and now we are expecting baby girl #2. It’s a scary time in the world, but with my own personal history I’d find a way to get checked out for peace of mind. They may have a different location available.

Hey Brianna! Great DITL vlog!! Don't go! Mommy of "8" here.....& I agree with Adam. Absolutely no need to go this early on in the pregnancy unless you're having complications. I almost took my 3 year old daughter a couple weeks ago for a follow up to an ear infection after having an allergic reaction to amoxicillin...but I went with my instinct by immediately stopping the meds cause the same thing happened to her older sister a while back and luckily it cleared up completely the next day. Having only finished 6 of the 10 day cycle of meds I wanted to make sure she didn't need a different prescription so we asked the clinic and they confirmed she was okay to stop the meds and as long as she wasn't experiencing any other pain she was fine. Even a couple of weeks ago....the thought of going into a clinic or hospital for non urgent care was considered super risky. Stay home & stay safe! You guys all look wonderful & healthy....so.... continued blessings to you & your loved ones!!!🥰
I think listening to your husband and letting him lead is the best advice, many blessings & prayers to you and your new little one & may God bless you & your sweet family greatly 💕
Most doctors dont even want to do your first appointment until at least 12 weeks unless you're a high risk. Just try to relax girl, I know the first trimester is scary but it's much worse out there.
I would just wait and in the meantime take your prenatal vitamins, stay healthy!
I am currently 22 weeks pregnant and high risk so I have to attend my appointments. Thankfully my doctors offices are taking great precautions to keep both momma and baby safe. However, I always take extra measures myself. I would call the doctors office and get there advise on what you should do. Good luck and praying for all the pregnant mommas and there babies🙏🏻
You husband is totally correct! What until things get under control. Stay safe🙂
No you absolutely don't need to get a check up right now.
Stay home mama!!! You're immune system is compromised at the moment and the easiest place to catch a virus is where everyone who is already sick goes. Avoid the hospital for now, as long as you're feeling well. Congrats btw
I'll just share my own personal situation. I'm 23+2 and haven't been seen since my 16 week appt. Haven't had a single ultrasound yet. This is our 3rd baby as well. Baby is moving great, no leaking fluids, feeling amazing! I'm very in tune with my body and my dr and I have a great relationship. I will call if I feel I need to. Trust your instincts, Mama.
Your husband is telling you what you need to hear, but should remember to still be compassionate because as a mom i 100% understand why you want to hear that heartbeat 💞💞💞
Our babies are going to be a couple months apart I can’t wait to see what we’re both having hopefully boys
omg you said "I can't wait to eat this," and I thought "omg that sounds like Sandra Lee..." and then you mentioned Semi-Homemade!!! So weird!
Just take your prenatal vitamins and eat healthy. Your gut will tell you if something is wrong then go. I had my first appointment almost at 4 months pregnant. In my opinion is don't go. Try not to stress, everything will be fine. ❤️❤️
I completely understand your anxieties at the beginning of the pregnancy. I’m currently 31 weeks. I think you should for sure call your doctor and see if they have any patients coming in with symptoms. If your husband is so against it, then for his peace of mind as well it’d probably be best to wait it out. I feel for every woman out there in the beginning stages of pregnancy. Praying for y’all!
Don’t wanna go this week trump said this is the week everyone should stay home!
You're so pretty as a pregnant. Pregnant glow 😍♥️
I am nine weeks pregnant tomorrow! Baby due November 9th. I totally get the tiredness and food aversions. I’ve got that also. I am high risk so I have to go to appointments and so far there have been no issues going to the doctor. As long as you take the normal precautions we are all taking you should be fine, and then wash your hands and change your clothes as soon as you get home.
I agree with waiting. You are healthy, eating well for the beginning of the pregnancy. But I would always just call the Dr. office and get their reassurance so that you will not have any anxiety of not knowing anything right now.
Are you serious ! Risking you and others health . Other people are much worse off just think of that
There are so many women that dont know theyre pregnant for many many weeks. So i think you are fine to stay home at least for a few more weeks. I feel for you so much being pregnant right now. I'm so happy for you and everythings going to be okay! 💗💗💗
I’m 19 weeks pregnant right now and am still going to my regularly scheduled appointments with my hospital based OB. Prenatal care is important and essential. My OBs office is in it’s own wing far away from urgent care and the ER, plus they are taking precautions pre screen everyone that enters the building. I would recommend calling your office and see what they recommend.
I’m 21 weeks and I just called my OB about my appointment on Thursday and they HIGHLY recommend that you still keep your appointments. I’m just going to take all the precautions, but my OB is not in a hospital.
Veronica Simonelli but is their recommendation so that they don’t lose out on your money?
I didn’t have my first ultrasound till I was 15 weeks. But I can totally see the worry and anxiety. As long as you’re not having severe cramping, and bleeding, it will be ok. Hugs!!
I'm like 24 weeks now and I have the same anxiety everytime I need to go to get checked. But my ob has it's own building so and they keep it really clean in there right now. But idk. Maybe call your ob and let them know your situation right now and ask if they feel it is necessary to come in right now .. congratulations 😊
Hi Bri, we will all pray for you to be safe, take care sweet mama ❤ I agree with Adam you shouldn't go into the hospital right now. Don't worry you'll be fine❤
A first prenatal appt is usually around 9 weeks. As long as you take prenatal vit and don’t have any bleeding or unbearable cramping I would def wait it out. A Doppler won’t pick up a heart beat until a little later but it’s something u can try to give you some peace! Another thing is that it depends on your hospital policy as well bc some need you to be an established patient before they can answer phone inquiries or questions about concerns etc so that is also something to assess. Praying for your family ❤️
Bri I agree with Adam don’t go unless you feel cramping or something is a concern. Most doctors and on are all for you staying home til delivery. Also I would call and see if there is a location outside of the hospital, where you can have your 12 week check up.
I am 10 weeks and rescheduled my 8 week appt to 12 weeks. I totally understand the needing reassurance (especially because this is my first) but you just have to trust that God has got you and this baby and things will work out the way they’re supposed to whether you go or not. My drs office told me the only reason to come in before 12 weeks was if we were doing genetic testing (which we’re not) so I think it’s completely safe to wait until you feel more comfortable to go in. And even then, wear as much protection as you can get your hands on! Sending comfort your way!
In the UK we are not given any ultrasounds until we are around 12 weeks pregnant. They would only give you an earlier scan if you were experiencing any cramping or bleeding. I would just wait it out for a while. If you’re feeling good in yourself then there’s no reason to put yourself at risk. x
Hi Bri! I'm pregnant with my 3rd too and didnt feel comfortable going to my ob cuz it was in a hospital so I ended up buying a fetal heart doppler and this has given me so much relief and comfort hearing my baby's heart beat. So definitely recommend buying one even though it's your 3rd. Also I switched insurance so I can choose a free standing ob clinic. Best wishes and goodluck!
Youll be ok pray.... And have faith over fear. God is always in control so dont worry and follow the path he has for you. Stay safe
I think you and your hubs are right on point with your gut intuition!! I know it has to be hard- I can’t imagine not being able to get that first-appointment confirmation. Living in the “age of information,” where anything we could possibly want to learn about is literally a click away and at our constant disposal has conditioned us to think we NEED to know everything. Access to all of this information is wonderful. Technological advancements that make it possible to monitor our pregnancies are wonderful. But they are not all necessary. Folks were able to populate the earth long before the pre-natal technology that we have today. It wasn’t always pretty or easy, but pregnancies were carried to full term, and people survived. There is less risk in holding off on your appointments than going to the hospital and risking your’s and your families health. I think you’ll feel just as much anxiety after the appointment in worrying whether or not you contracted the virus. I don’t say any of this to trivialize your fears but to hopefully encourage you that it will all be okay. Your baby is okay- follow your mama’s intuition, and trust in the Lord, for He is your strength, a very present help in times of trouble. Know that we are SHOWERING you with prayers for a safe and happy pregnancy as well as peace of mind. God bless Bri. You are a beautiful soul.
Congratulations i hope u have an easy pregnancy. Praying for everyone please remember my family when u pray.God is so good to all of us.this is a time out for us to put God and family first
Awww, Sweet Lady, I feel for you and your family as you prepare & wait for this baby. Please know that your video distracted me from my own anxiety amidst this craziness. You are such a loving mom, a wonderful homemaker...you got this! Prayers & elbow bumps!
Yes life is definitely cra cra right now. I know that my husband and I are blessed that our jobs have not been closed due to the pandemic (he works for Amazon and I work in mental health); but just working and home gets depressing when I can't spend time with my grown kids, grandbabies and our moms. So I do a lot of praying when the depression tries to set in.
I'm in NY and we are on lockdown until May 15th. They just extended the time yesterday.
You are better off staying home unless its an emergency. You will be okay and you will be safer waiting.
Don't go please. Every thing will be fine. Just trust in god and pray. Sending lots of love.
I can feel your anxiety mommy Bri. Just pray and talk to your baby all the time. It works. Eat healthy food, call ypur OB and ask for better option. If you van get hold of Doppler somehow you will have assurancr cause you can hear the baby's heartbeat. GODBLESS
