What should I eat during pregnancy as a vegan? Are there any foods I should avoid?

Mon, 17 Nov 2025 11:21:20 +0000

I'm pretty much a plant‑lover myself and lived off fruit for the first trimester because it was all I could keep down! An apple a day isn't going to harm you – it's fibre, vitamins and a bit of natural sugar. Just give them a good wash to remove any wax or pesticides.

The bigger challenge with being vegan in pregnancy is making sure you get enough protein, iron, calcium and B12. Things like lentils, chickpeas, tofu, tempeh, quinoa, nuts and seeds were staples for me. I also added fortified plant milks and cereals for B12 and calcium, and kept taking my prenatal vitamins. If you eat a wide variety of whole foods and pay attention to those nutrients you'll be fine.

There are a few foods everyone should be careful with in pregnancy – raw sprouts, unpasteurised juices or nut milks, and anything that might carry food poisoning like undercooked beans or rice. And since you're vegan you don't have to worry about the usual advice about sushi or deli meats! If you're unsure, a chat with a dietitian or midwife who understands vegan diets can give you tailored advice. But go ahead and enjoy your apples – I ate at least one a day with a handful of nuts for protein.

Is it normal to feel baby kicking near the vaginal and anal area at 17 weeks of pregnancy?

Mon, 17 Nov 2025 11:20:04 +0000

I remember being surprised by how low some of those early kicks felt with my second baby too! At around 17–18 weeks they're still small and have loads of room to flip around, so sometimes their little feet are pointing down and they end up kicking your cervix or pushing against your rectum. It can feel like a poke in your bum or vagina and is totally weird but usually harmless.

Because you've already had a c‑section your abdominal muscles and uterus might be a bit different this time, which can change how you perceive movement. As long as there's no sharp pain, bleeding or pressure, feeling low flutters or kicks is generally a sign of a lively baby. Mine liked to tap dance on my bladder for weeks and made me run to the bathroom constantly.

If anything feels really uncomfortable or you notice spotting, it's always worth mentioning to your midwife or doctor just to be safe. Otherwise enjoy those little nudges — soon they'll be up in your ribs instead!

Can I Check a Pregnancy Test if I'm Experiencing Lower Abdominal Pain and the App Indicates I'm Three Weeks Pregnant?

Mon, 17 Nov 2025 11:18:58 +0000

Those cycle tracking apps can be handy but they really just make educated guesses based on the dates you put in. They can't actually tell if you're pregnant, they just count days from your last period and ovulation. A home pregnancy test measures the hCG hormone in your urine, and most won't pick that up until at least a few days before your missed period. At "three weeks" from your last period there often isn't enough hormone to detect yet.

I remember being so sure I was pregnant once because I had cramping and back ache and my app said I was in the window, but my test was negative. Two days later my period turned up and I realised it was just PMS and ovulation pains. With my actual pregnancies the test didn't show positive until the day my period was due.

If you're still having pain and you're worried, it never hurts to call your doctor or midwife. They can do a more sensitive blood test or check for other causes of abdominal pain like a urinary tract infection or cyst. But I wouldn't put too much stock in the app alone – either wait a few more days and test again, or talk to your healthcare provider for peace of mind.

Is it time for labor if I am experiencing mild pains, back pain, pelvic pressure, and the urge to have a bowel movement at 38 weeks pregnant?

Mon, 17 Nov 2025 11:18:14 +0000

Those last couple of weeks are such a tease, aren't they? With both of my kids I started feeling that constant pressure and "have to poo" feeling around 37–38 weeks. For me it was just the baby's head settling lower into my pelvis and pressing on my bowel and nerves. I'd sit on the toilet and nothing would happen but the pressure would ease for a bit.

Mild cramps, back ache and pelvic pressure can definitely be part of the body gearing up for labour, but active labour doesn't usually kick in until the cramps become regular, stronger and start to form a pattern. Some women have these pre-labour sensations for days or even weeks before the real thing. When my contractions started for real there was no mistaking it, they came in waves and got closer together no matter what I was doing.

If you're worried or the pain changes, give your midwife or doctor a call. They'll probably tell you to rest, stay hydrated and watch for your waters breaking or contractions you can't talk through. But what you're describing sounds very familiar to me and a lot of mums I know. Hang in there, not long to go now!

Experiencing Heavy Bleeding Like Periods After Testing Positive for Pregnancy - What Does it Mean?

Mon, 17 Nov 2025 11:17:22 +0000

I know how scary that can be. With my second pregnancy I had some light spotting and it turned out to be nothing, but once I got a positive test and then a few days later I started bleeding like a normal period. Unfortunately in my case it was what the doctor called a chemical pregnancy, basically an early miscarriage. It happens quite often before many people even know they're pregnant.

If it's just a bit of brown or pink spotting, it can be implantation or irritation from sex, but if you're having full, heavy bleeding with clots and cramps like a period, chances are the pregnancy isn't continuing. Sometimes there are other reasons such as a subchorionic bleed, but only an ultrasound or blood tests can tell you for sure.

I'd suggest taking care of yourself, maybe doing another test in a few days to see if it's still positive, and contact your provider for advice and support. Early losses are sadly very common and nothing you did wrong. If the bleeding stops and tests stay positive, that's a good sign too. Either way, you're not alone and it's ok to reach out to your doctor to see what's going on.

The Importance of Hiring the Best Mold Testing Services in North Dallas

Mon, 17 Nov 2025 11:16:47 +0000

When we were expecting our first baby we decided to have a look at our old house and found some damp spots behind the bathroom wall. We thought it was nothing but when a friend suggested getting it checked we hired a mold inspector. They found hidden mold we couldn't see or smell, and it was worth every penny to get it cleaned up before the baby arrived.

Professional testers have equipment to measure moisture and spores so you know exactly what you're dealing with. Toxic molds can irritate your lungs, trigger allergies or asthma and make you feel tired, which isn't fun when you're pregnant or have little ones at home. It's not something you can diagnose just by looking, and trying to fix it yourself can spread the spores if you don't know what you're doing.

You can usually find local companies online or ask your county health department for recommendations. In our case the inspector explained what he found, gave us a written report and suggested a reputable remediation company. It gave me peace of mind knowing our home was safe. So no, you can't assume your home is free of mold just because you can't see it, and if you have concerns it's worth getting it tested by a pro.

Potential complications of pregnancy with intramural fibroids

Mon, 17 Nov 2025 11:15:13 +0000

I have a couple of intramural fibroids myself and remember panicking when I first found out. My OB reassured me that the vast majority of women with fibroids carry to term without any major issues. Intramural just means it’s in the wall of the uterus, so it usually doesn’t interfere with the baby directly.

That said, there can be some annoyances: I had more cramping and spotting early on, and one friend’s fibroid grew with the pregnancy and caused some discomfort. In very rare cases they can affect the placenta’s position, make the baby lie breech, or increase the chance of a C‑section if they’re very large. But most of us just get regular scans so the doctor can keep an eye on growth and blood flow. Try to take it one appointment at a time and don’t Google too much – your care provider will tell you if there’s anything you need to watch for.

Is my current weight of 60.9 kg during pregnancy normal or should I consider losing weight?

Mon, 17 Nov 2025 11:14:01 +0000

Weight gain in pregnancy is super personal and varies a lot. I was about your size pre‑pregnancy and by the halfway point I was already up 8–9 kilos without eating like crazy. By the time I delivered I had gained around 12–13 kg and my midwife was happy with that. Your body builds extra blood volume, amniotic fluid, placenta and of course baby, so the scale is going to climb.

Most care providers don’t recommend trying to lose weight while pregnant unless there’s a medical reason. The focus is on eating a variety of healthy foods, staying hydrated and moving when you can. If you’re concerned, mention it at your next appointment and they can reassure you based on your height and health history. But 60.9 kg from 50 kg doesn’t sound alarming to me as a mom who’s been there.

Why should you consider detoxing at home? Improve your health by reducing toxicity levels in your living space.

Mon, 17 Nov 2025 11:12:43 +0000

As someone who spends a lot of time at home with little ones, I totally get wanting to make it feel healthier. When I first got pregnant I was suddenly very aware of all the dust, chemicals and clutter around me. I started swapping out harsh cleaners for vinegar and baking soda, airing out the house more often, and getting rid of scented candles and sprays that gave me headaches. It’s not about an extreme "detox" regime, just small steps to reduce the junk we bring in.

It actually made me feel better knowing I was doing something for my family’s wellbeing, and my allergies eased up too. Plus decluttering and keeping things tidy makes your space feel calmer. You don’t have to spend a fortune or follow a fad – just common sense changes like opening windows, wiping surfaces, and choosing more natural products.

21 Weeks Pregnant: No Scan Results, But Told About Tiny Myoma - What Does It Mean?

Mon, 17 Nov 2025 11:11:45 +0000

I know it’s scary when things don’t go as textbook perfect. With my first I had a scan at 20 weeks that didn’t show much because baby was tucked away and my placenta was anterior. Later on the tech mentioned a “tiny myoma” too – basically a small fibroid in the uterus. My midwife said lots of women have them and they’re usually harmless as long as they’re small and not growing into the cavity. I never even noticed it and baby kept on kicking like crazy.

If your little one is moving and you’re feeling okay, that’s a good sign. They may do another scan later and keep an eye on the fibroid. It’s worth mentioning any bleeding or cramps to your doctor, but try not to panic – many mums I know carried healthy babies with fibroids and only found out during routine scans.

Can a baby's head change position within 3 days after a scan shows it is down at week 36?

Mon, 17 Nov 2025 11:11:16 +0000

In my experience baby still has some wiggle room around 36 weeks. My last two little ones would roll their heads from side to side or push with their bum even tho the ultrasound said they were head down. One even went from facing my back to facing out again within a few days. They rarely flip all the way back to breech at this stage, but they can shift a bit while they’re getting comfy. My midwife just told me to pay attention to movements and let her know if anything felt really off. Try not to stress too much and ask at your next check – they usually stay where they’re meant to be by then.

Is it normal to experience abdominal and anal pains during the second trimester of pregnancy at 13 weeks?

Mon, 17 Nov 2025 11:10:07 +0000

I remember around that time I had all sorts of weird twinges and aches too. Your uterus is starting to grow pretty quickly, so round ligament pain can feel like sharp or pulling sensations on the side or lower belly, and it can be really uncomfortable but not dangerous. On the other end, pregnancy hormones slow everything down, so constipation and haemorrhoids are super common and can cause pressure or aching around the bum. Drinking lots of water, eating fibre and going for gentle walks helped me. If you notice bleeding, severe cramps, fever or anything that just feels "not right" then it’s definitely worth phoning your midwife to be safe. But mild abdominal or anal discomfort on its own was part of the process for me and a lot of my mum friends.

What services does a nationwide appraisal company offer?

Mon, 17 Nov 2025 11:08:51 +0000

Böyle sorular burada bile beklemiyordum :) Bir ev alıp satarken biz de bir ekspertiz firması ile çalıştık. Geldiler, evin metrekaresini, bakım durumunu, mahallenin değerini inceleyip piyasa değeri hakkında rapor hazırladılar. Yakındaki benzer satışları karşılaştırdılar ve bölgedeki okul, ulaşım gibi etkenleri de göz önüne aldılar. Bizden aldıkları ücret sabitti, evin değerine göre komisyon almıyorlardı. Raporu bankaya sunarak kredi işlemlerini tamamladık. Aslında hamilelikten bağımsız ama merakını gidermek istedim :)

What should I do if my hemoglobin level drops suddenly during pregnancy at 29 weeks?

Mon, 17 Nov 2025 11:08:06 +0000

Benim de 3. trimesterde hemoglobin seviyem birden düşünce biraz panik olmuştum. Doktor hemen demir takviyesi yazdı ama aynı zamanda beslenmeme dikkat ettim. Kırmızı et, balık, baklagiller, pekmez, hurma gibi demirden zengin gıdalar tüketmeye çalıştım ve C vitamini ile beraber aldım ki emilimi artsın. Ayrıca her gün bir avuç kuru üzüm ve ceviz yemek bile faydalı oldu. Yine de herkesin ihtiyacı farklı, bazı kadınlar demir haplarını tolere edemeyebiliyor; benim bir arkadaşım kabızlık çektiği için sıvı demir kullandı. En iyisi bu durumu doktorunla paylaşmak ve kan takibini sıkı tutmak. 9,3 hala düşük sayılmaz ama yorgunluk ya da nefes darlığı hissediyorsan dinlenip demirden zengin yiyeceklerle desteklemek iyi gelir.

Can fibroids between the wall of my uterus harm my baby during pregnancy?

Mon, 17 Nov 2025 11:06:50 +0000

Ben de hamileyken rahim duvarinda küçücük miyomlar oldu ve çok korkmuştum. Doktorum bunların genellikle iyi huylu olduğunu ve birçok kadının hamilelikte fark etmeden miyomlarla sağlıklı bebekler doğurduğunu anlattı. Benim durumumda sadece ara sıra kasık agrisi ve kabizlik yaptı, bol su içtim ve dinlendim. Kontrollerde miyomun büyüyp büyüyemediğini takip ettiler. Her hamilelik farklıdır, eğer kuvvetli agrı ya da kanama olursa mutlaka doktoruna haber ver. Ama genelde sadece kontrol ve sabır gerektiren bir durum ve bebeğin beklenenden daha erken ya da küçük doğması gibi riskler nćnçık. Kendi deneyimim ve arkadaşlarımın deneyimleriyle bebekler sağlıklı doğdu.

Is it safe to take emapazole tablets for ulcer during pregnancy at 17 weeks?

Mon, 17 Nov 2025 11:05:45 +0000

I’ve dealt with some nasty heartburn/ulcer type discomfort around that time too and it’s no fun. Personally I wouldn’t take any medication without checking in with my midwife or doctor first, as some meds are perfectly safe in pregnancy and others aren’t. In my case they had me start with diet changes – smaller, bland meals, avoiding spicy or acidic foods, propping myself up at night – and I sipped on chamomile tea and ate plain yoghurt which soothed my stomach. When that didn’t cut it, my provider prescribed a pregnancy-safe antacid. Every body is different, so it’s always worth a quick call to your care team before taking tablets. They can reassure you and suggest alternatives so you and baby stay comfortable and safe.

Experiencing Spotting at 6 Weeks Pregnant - What Should I Do?

Mon, 17 Nov 2025 11:03:38 +0000

Hey, I totally understand how worrying that is. I had some light spotting around the same time in one of my pregnancies and was convinced the worst was happening. My midwife explained that light pink or brown spotting can be very normal and can come from implantation, cervical irritation after sex or even just increased blood flow down there. I put my feet up, drank plenty of water and avoided heavy lifting or vigorous exercise and it stopped within a day or two. If you start to see bright red blood, heavy flow or feel strong cramps, then it’s worth calling your care provider for peace of mind, but many of us experience a bit of spotting early on and go on to have healthy pregnancies. Sending hugs, try to rest and take care of yourself!

Understanding Swollen Feet During Pregnancy at 12 Weeks

Mon, 17 Nov 2025 11:02:39 +0000

Hi there! I remember my feet starting to look like little balloons around that time too. Your body is suddenly carrying a lot more blood and fluid and hormones make you retain water, so some puffiness in hands and feet can start surprisingly early. Heat, standing for long periods or lots of salty snacks will make it worse. Elevating your feet when you rest, drinking plenty of water and wearing comfy, supportive shoes or even light compression socks can help. I also tried gentle walks and ankle circles to keep things moving. If you ever notice sudden or severe swelling along with headaches or blurred vision, mention it at your next visit, but mild swelling is one of those not-so-fun but normal pregnancy things.

What does an AFI measurement of 8cm indicate in a big ultrasound?

Mon, 17 Nov 2025 11:02:08 +0000

I remember seeing numbers like that with my AFI and freaking out a bit, lol. My midwife explained that anything between around 5–25 cm is still considered "normal" but 8 cm is just on the lower side so they keep an eye on it. She had me up my water intake and recheck in a week and it actually went back up. It’s just a measurement of the fluid around your baby, so it doesn’t directly harm development on its own. Lots of moms have AFI around 8 or 9 toward the end and go on to deliver healthy kiddos. If your care team is watching it closely you’re already doing the right thing ❤️

Something lodged below the throat above the chest

Mon, 17 Nov 2025 11:01:33 +0000

Hey mama ☺️ I totally get that weird lodged feeling just under the throat. I had it too in my last pregnancy and it freaked me out at first! For me it was mostly heartburn/reflux and just the little one pushing everything up. Eating smaller meals, staying upright after eating and drinking plenty of water helped me. Gentle neck/shoulder stretches or lying on your side can ease it a bit too. It’s annoying but super common. If anything else feels off, just bring it up at your next appointment but most of the time it’s just another one of those fun pregnancy quirks ;)

Is a corpus luteal cyst in the left ovary during pregnancy harmful to baby development at 12 weeks?

Sun, 16 Nov 2025 11:28:17 +0000

I had a corpus luteum cyst on my ovary with both of my pregnancies. My ob explained it's actually a good sign in early pregnancy because that little cyst produces the progesterone needed to support the placenta until around 12-14 weeks. By the time my dating scan came around it had shrunk on its own.

I did feel the occasional tug or ache on that side, and they kept an eye on it at my scans, but it never affected baby. The only time it can become an issue is if it ruptures or twists, which causes sudden severe pain and needs medical attention. Otherwise, most corpus luteal cysts resolve by the second trimester. If you're worried or the pain increases, give your caregiver a call, but chances are it will disappear quietly as your pregnancy progresses.

What should I do if I am 7 weeks pregnant with an empty sac but my pregnancy is 9 weeks?

Sun, 16 Nov 2025 11:26:59 +0000

I had this happen with one of my pregnancies and it sent me down a Google rabbit hole, but it didn’t mean the worst. Dates can be off if you ovulated later than you thought or if implantation took longer. At what was supposed to be 7‑8 weeks my ultrasound just showed an empty sac and they called it a “possible blighted ovum”. My midwife had me come back a week later and there was a little heartbeat flickering away.

Unfortunately sometimes it does mean a pregnancy isn’t developing and your body hasn’t caught up yet. The only way to know is to repeat the scan and maybe do some blood work to see if your hCG is rising. For now try to stay off Dr Google and take care of yourself. Hugs – waiting is so hard but many women have good news at the next scan.

Understanding the Consequences of High Pulse Rate in the 9th Month of Pregnancy

Sun, 16 Nov 2025 11:25:53 +0000

My resting pulse shot up in my last month too – I felt like my heart was doing a little workout even when I was just lying on the sofa. My midwife explained it’s pretty normal because your blood volume is around 50% higher and your body is working overtime feeding baby. It can also jump up if you’re dehydrated, hot, anxious or anemic.

For me it mostly just made me feel out of breath and a bit woozy if I rushed around. I found sipping water, sitting down with my feet up and taking a few deep breaths calmed it. I wore loose clothes and avoided caffeine. Baby was totally fine, just wriggly! Of course if your pulse is constantly super high, you feel faint or have chest pain, it’s worth calling your doc or triage. But a slightly higher heart rate at the end is part of the crazy marathon of pregnancy.

What should I do if my periods are 32 days late after having a recent DNC in June and a negative pregnancy test?

Sun, 16 Nov 2025 11:24:44 +0000

After my D&C my body was a bit all over the place too – my period went missing for almost 6 weeks and then was really light. Your uterus has been through a lot and it can take a few cycles for your hormones and lining to balance out again, especially if you had anesthesia or medication.

If you’ve taken a pregnancy test and it’s negative, you could give it another week and test again just in case you ovulated later than usual. But also consider other factors like stress, weight change, or illness that can delay things. I ended up booking in with my GP for a checkup and they did a quick exam and bloods just to make sure everything was healing ok. It gave me peace of mind. Hang in there and try not to stress – most women I know had irregular cycles for a bit after a D&C.

Can I be pregnant after a miscarriage and period? How to calculate weeks of pregnancy?

Sun, 16 Nov 2025 11:23:58 +0000

After my early miscarriage I was shocked to fall pregnant again so soon, so yep it can totally happen. Some women ovulate just 2 weeks after a loss, even if you had a bit of bleeding. Those queasy/bloating feelings could just be your hormones settling down or a new pregnancy. The only way to know for sure is to take a test or see your ob.

As for dates, my midwife told me to use the first day of the bleeding that felt like a "normal period" as the start of a new cycle. So if you had a 10‑day period, count from the first day of that to figure out how many weeks you are. If your cycles are irregular it might be a bit off, but they’ll adjust your due date at a scan. Don't stress too much, just treat yourself gently and ring your doc if you have any worries. Good luck!

How can I improve my sleep during the 29th week of pregnancy?

Sun, 16 Nov 2025 11:23:12 +0000

29 weeks was about when I really started struggling to sleep too – the bump, heartburn and those middle of the night loo trips kept me awake. A big U‑shaped pregnancy pillow was a game changer for me, I tucked part of it under my bump and between my knees to take the pressure off my hips. Sleeping slightly propped up with extra pillows helped with reflux. I tried to cut back on fluids an hour or two before bed so I wasn’t up peeing every hour and did a little stretching or a slow evening walk to relax. Keeping the room cool, dark and turning off screens early made it easier to wind down. On nights I couldn’t drop off I’d get up and read or have a small snack instead of tossing & turning forever. Short naps in the day and an early bedtime helped me catch up. It’s a rough phase but you’re almost there, mama!

Is Fengus Capsule Safe to Take During Pregnancy?

Sun, 16 Nov 2025 11:21:42 +0000

Ugh, I dealt with a nasty yeast infection around 6 weeks too and was so nervous about taking anything. My GP prescribed me a single antifungal capsule (I think it was fluconazole) for the discharge/itching and said at that dose it was okay in pregnancy, but I still double checked with my midwife. She confirmed that a one‑off dose or topical creams are generally considered safe and sometimes they prefer pessaries/creams instead. A couple of friends just used yoghurt/probiotics to help. If your doc has already advised you to take it they've probably weighed up the risks & benefits, so I'd follow their guidance rather than self‑medicating. Always worth a quick phone call if you're worried tho!

What is a tiny intracardiac echogenic focus in the left ventricle?

Sun, 16 Nov 2025 11:20:36 +0000

I had a similar scare at my anatomy scan when they saw a bright little spot in my baby's heart. The tech told me it was an "echogenic intracardiac focus", basically a tiny calcium speck like a freckle inside the left ventricle. She said it's really common and on its own it doesn't cause any heart problems or mean there's anything wrong. In my case it disappeared by the next scan and my son was born totally healthy. If there are no other markers or abnormalities your doctor will probably just note it and keep an eye on things. I know it's hard but try not to stress – talk to your provider if you need reassurance.

Is Progeffik progesterone safe to use during the 6th month of a twin pregnancy?

Sun, 16 Nov 2025 11:19:34 +0000

I used progesterone suppositories on my first pregnancy but only in the first trimester because of some spotting, my doc took me off once my placenta took over. A friend of mine carried twins and her OB had her stay on it well into the 2nd trimester to support her cervix, she mostly just felt a bit sleepy and had some discharge. They weaned her off slowly around 24‑28 weeks. Every pregnancy is diff so you really don't wanna just start or stop any meds without your OB/midwife's guidance. It's worth chatting to them about any worries you have.

Is it normal to have diarrhea at 14 weeks pregnant?

Sun, 16 Nov 2025 11:18:09 +0000

Oh I remember being 14 wks and having a couple days of loose stools and freaking out too. Hormones can really mess with your digestion and it can swing between constipation and diarrhoea. In my case it was prob something I ate + the prenatals, my midwife said not to stress. I stuck to bland foods (BRAT diet, like bananas, rice, apple sauce and toast), drank lots of water w/ a pinch of salt/sugar and it settled down in a day or two. If you can't keep fluids down, see blood or have cramps/fever then def ring your doc, but the odd tummy upset seems to be pretty normal in pregnancy.

Can I deworm during my first trimester if I have worms causing discomfort?

Sun, 16 Nov 2025 11:17:03 +0000

Hey there, I had the same worry early on when I felt like something was off in my tum. My midwife said most deworming meds aren’t great in those very early weeks, so she had me wait til after the 1st trimester and we just kept an eye on me. In the meantime I ate lots of fibre & yoghurt, garlic (my grandma swore by it lol), and drank loads of water. The rumbling and irritation eased off by themselves. Everyone’s diff though, so it’s worth a chat with ur doc/midwife before taking anything stronger.

What can I drink for a sore throat at 4 weeks pregnant?

Sun, 16 Nov 2025 11:15:50 +0000

Congrats on your positive test :) I remember catching a sore throat right after finding out and being paranoid about what was "safe." What soothed me was simple things like warm water with lemon and honey, herbal teas like chamomile or ginger, and lots of brothy soups. I also sucked on ice chips and popsicles when the burning got bad and gargled with warm salt water. I avoided over‑the‑counter meds unless my midwife okayed them. Staying hydrated and resting really helped it pass quickly. If you feel feverish or it doesn’t ease up, it’s always good to check in with your care provider just for peace of mind.
