I think my mom is sick but she doesn't want to go see a doctor

My mom (55) has changed a lot in the past 6 months, physically and mentally.

She's half the size that she was. She lost a tremendous amount of weight and is definitely at an unhealthy weight. She's not the same person that she used to be.

Her mental state is also very different. She gets very stubborn, refuses to leave her house. I had a baby last week and she hasn't seen her yet which is very unlike her.

My sister has tried talking to her but she won't budge. I considered speaking with her family physician but figure there's not much she can do if my mom doesn't want help.

Considering how much weight she lost I'm concerned there's something serious happening and I feel like there's nothing I can do.

I have three young children who means the world to her but she hasn't come seen them in months 😢

Will daycare kick us out if we had to postpone toddlers 18m vaccines? [Nb]

Our daughter turned 18 months in April and was supposed to get her vaccines. However, we had to postpone because she had a bad gastro (that she caught at daycare).

When I called public health the closest appointment I could get was mid-July 🫠 so she'll be 21 months.

I got a letter from daycare stating her vaccines weren't up to date and to provide proof of immunization asap, but she's only going in July. Will we need to take her out until then!?

This is my third baby... had baby #1 at 36w5d, baby #2 at 37w3d, and am currently 37w5d. A week ago I went to L&D for cramps and feeling off. They did a cervical check, I was 3cm and 50%. They kept me for a couple hours, checked me again then I was 4cm and 75%, but the cramps had stopped.

It's been a week, I haven't had many cramping since but I feel so much pressure and am so uncomfortable. These past few days I've been feeling so impatient and angry. 😭 I'm doing the exercises, the yoga ball, sex, raspberry leaf tea, nothing is working.

It's a bit frustrating because all the nurses and doctors have been telling me from the start I'll likely be early with this baby too since I was with the others but looks like baby wants to prove them wrong 😅

Has anyone dealt with a similar scenario? Where you were almost in labor then it all just stopped?
