I’m looking for a walking pad that can be used for longer periods of time ie 1-1.5 hrs under 5MPH. I have bought a few now and every time after a few months of use the walking pad gets hot and I end up limited to 30 mins of use or melting my shoes and eventually burning out the motor. Also need one that can support up to 300 lbs.
Any recommendations also I live in Canada.
Looking for people with experience having a vbac when overweight. Did you get induced or have spontaneous labor? How far along were you when you delivered etc
For context I’m 280 lbs (started this pregnancy at 220) 5’10 so BMI of about 40, Csection was 3.5 years ago. With my first they told me baby would be 10+ lbs and she was 7.4.
I am really wanting a spontaneous labor and to avoid unnecessary medical interventions as much as possible but I just had a consult at the hospital and they said while I’m a candidate for vbac they would want to induce me at 39 weeks because I’m overweight. The OB could not tell me anything regarding how much risk of stillbirth goes up if I wait to 40 weeks vs 39 she just doubled down that 39 weeks is the recommendation and then added that a repeat Csection wouldn’t be so bad. 🙄 she also said I need to do frequent growth scans which considering how wrong they were with my first doesn’t seem helpful.
Hi all! I’m struggling a lot with pregnancy related pain especially in my lower back. I’ve been getting prenatal massages but it only helps for a couple of hours? What is the best type of service to get to help with this? Should I be seeing a chiropractor, osteopath, physio etc?
