I loved your videos when I was pregnant with our son in 2021. We are trying for a second child and I still find these videos calming to watch. Thanks for the information! :)

[@Nurse_zabe]

You’re so welcome! Good luck on your TTC journey!

My wife is preg w our first. Ive been researching like crazy cuz I want to be the best birth partner I can. I just imagine walking into LD on the big day nd nurse zabe walking in😲. I be like" yeah! we are in good hands". She's so smart caring and funny, the exact nurse I'd love to have. Great job girl!!

Why is baby aspirin used in patients with hx of preeclampsia? Why is aspirin contraindicated in normal pregnancies without preeclampsia?

[@bleechrcreechrr]

Hey nurse zabe, just a video suggestion- could you talk about if it's possible to have an unmedicated delivery if you require continuous monitoring? And if possible could you give some tips on pain management that can be done when you're kinda stuck to the bed like that?

I had a c section 12 weeks ago after my baby’s heart rate couldn’t handle the contractions. My water had been broken for like an hour before we went back for surgery. But I can’t stop thinking about what if it hadn’t been broken?? Does the fluid just flood your stomach cavity when the cut into you?? Do they cut a little hole first and suction some out?? I haven’t been brave enough to google it but I can’t stop wondering

[@Nurse_zabe]

Such a great question! I can definitely speak more on what happens. 😊

I was in a horrific car accident. I was put on belbucca 600mcg. All the Drs said that they rather not have me come off of it during my pregnancy because could make me go.into pre term labor. With it being such a small dosage what's the probability my baby will have nas/ newborn withdrawal syndrome. He is due in June. Please and thank you.

Could you do a video on fetal macrosomia? I just had an ultrasound yesterday and baby boy was measuring 37+6 instead of 36+1. They also estimated he is already 7.10lbs.

[@Nurse_zabe]

I can! Adding to my list.

[@Shay2020.]

Thank you!

[@Nurse_zabe]

You’re welcome! Sorry it took a while to get the info out to you. 💕

[@blake3847]

Thank you!!!! ❤

[@Nurse_zabe]

Of course! Hope it helped! 💕💕

My question is: I had a third degree tear (3A) in my first labour. What should I be doing through my second pregnancy to reduce the risk of tearing again?

[@Nurse_zabe]

I can definitely discuss this!

[@Monopolygirl]

Can you talk about HELLP syndrome? I had this in labor with my first and I’m pregnant again. Curious how it can affect future pregnancy.

[@Nurse_zabe]

HELLP is a subset of preeclampsia and I have a video that covers both! Have you checked it out?

Can you another pregnancy and birth in plus size women, it’s such a taboo topic I don’t even see plus size women talking about it.

[@Nurse_zabe]

I can definitely look into it. What other information would you like to see?

[@melissaking3564]

more of the practicality's like where do we find nursing bras, items that might make pregnancy, child birth and post postpartum easier. what are the risks of being plus size in child birth, does it make it harder to get pregnant and stay pregnant? is it harder to find flanges that fit larger breasts? it just feels like a lot of information on the basics about pregnancy are hard to find for a plus size person.

[@monicag.1527]

I just found out there is a brand called Nursing Queen and they have options that go up to 3X. I also think I came across some plus size maternity options through Walmart online. I'm not plus size but I am modest in my dress and also don't want to spend an arm and a leg, so I'm having a hard time finding some good options too 😓
