Funeral Flowers

What did you do with the flowers from the funeral? I can’t get myself to throw them out. Most of them are dead or dying but if anyone has suggestions on what to do with them or did you throw them away? I don’t know why this is so hard for me to do. Thanks for any suggestions

Questions for OB after stillbirth

Hi everyone. I went through a stillbirth and I have so many questions for my OB but I feel like she’s being a bit cold. I saw her a week after my stillbirth which I didn’t ask anything still being in shock and just yesterday at a 7 week follow up she seemed to brush everything off and rush the appointments as if she didn’t want me to ask questions. There are a few questions I forgot to ask her and now they are saying she is unavailable for appointments and she won’t even give me a call back. Is there anything I can do? Has anyone gone through something similar? It’s eating me up that I don’t have answers and she seems to not want to give me answers.

Would I be able to pursue legal action?

Location California. I had an ultrasound on June 15 documented fetal hydrops. I went in with symptoms I believed was preeclampsia. I was discharged and told not to worry. I was told my baby had a little bit of fluid around his lungs. I was reassured by the doctor that he did not believe it was fetal hydrops. I was instructed to follow up in two weeks. 10 days later my baby had severe hydrops and was stillborn at 30 weeks 3 days. I have the June 15 and June 25 records, ultrasound reports, placenta pathology and a private autopsy. Ultrasound report from June 15 stated my baby had fluid in his head and abdomen which the doctor failed to inform me. The fluid build up in his head lead to bleeding in the brain. Would an attorney be able to evaluate failure to diagnose or properly respond to suspected fetal hydrops, delayed maternal-fetal medicine referral, and whether earlier intervention could have changed the outcome? Is this something I should pursue legal action?

MIL keeps calling me fat

Can anyone tell me how I should handle this? I’m a 29 year old pregnant F I’m 6 months pregnant and have gained about 15 pounds. I wasn’t the skinniest to start with but not super big either. I’ve had problems with my MIL being weird me and with my boyfriend her 28YO M son since our relationship started. She’s constantly did things like talk to and invited his ex to his birthday party. Mentioned girls and asked them if he thinks they’re pretty. Has given me dirty looks when he’s not looking. Anyways I can tell she doesn’t really like me too much even though in front of him she acts like she does. Also I’ve never done anything for her to not like me. I think she’s just one of those moms that wants her son to herself. Well I’m pregnant now after 4 years of us being together and just recently she started calling me fat names. A couple examples this past Mother’s Day we were with his family it was getting late and everyone was leaving. My boyfriend was waiting for me in the car since I went back to get my purse I left and she asked if I wanted to take food home. I said no it’s okay and she told me “you know he’s gonna want to eat some of this later” talking about my boyfriend so I said “okay we’ll take some” as she’s packing it up for me she asks everyone that is still there “does anyone want more food? If not I’m going to give it to ms.piggy over here” to which they laughed. I just stayed quiet then left. She also recently starting greeting me, saying “hey fat girl” or “hey porky” which I feel she’s trying to make me feel bad. I kinda don’t feel bad since I know I haven’t gained too much and everyone around me tells me how it doesn’t look like I’ve gained a lot of weight despite being 6 months. But it does bother me since I feel she’s doing it to disrespect me. I told my bf it bothers me and he tried to say she’s just joking with me cause I’m pregnant to which I replied no girl wants to be called that pregnant or not it’s not a funny joke and he said he would tell her something. I don’t know how that is going to go or if she is going to stop. How would anyone handle something like this? I feel like I should call her names back but I know that won’t really help the situation just make it worse. Any advice?
