I HAVE TO GET INDUCED EARLY?!? || Baby Still Measuring Small🫣
Вставка
- Опубліковано 22 гру 2024
- We are going back for another ultrasound to check the baby’s size. Unfortunately he hasn’t grown as much as we were hoping for, but he’s looking very active and healthy so we aren’t too worried about his health. However, he will most likely be a small baby. We will go back next week for another check up and will update y’all then:)
Thank you so much for watching!

No trip! Stay home and prepare, rest
You might want to check with your airline. They may have rules about flying so close to your due date.
I was thinking same thing
Just a reminder that you can get a second opinion. We were told we needed to induce with our third, but she was measuring tiny, and we saw no reason for that. I had nonstress tests twice a week. She ended up going to 41 weeks three days. She was my smallest baby and my quickest delivery. I delivered in triage! Pray about it and be led by the Lord. Praying for you guys.
I had a 34 week baby, he was 5 pounds. Baby will grow faster out than in if the placenta is not up to par. Prayers for speedy month. Stay home, no vacation.
Yes, I agree Blinda- stay home pls-, premee clothes and buntings. Too small for clothes w legs.
Yes I agree too, I've heard you aren't supposed to travel in your 8th month. Better to be safe.
I’m so glad you commented. I didn’t understand why inducing early would be a benefit until I read your post.
But they didn't say it was up to par. She told them it didn't do much the last two weeks. That's absurd! It is created to sustain the baby as long as needed. Now at 42-43 weeks pregnancy, yes, it starts to shrivel, but many moms go that far no problem.
@@famservingyah765 The placenta could be considered the mastermind behind maternal physiology, orchestrating an entire organism to create a proper milieu for fetal development.
Barring a diagnosed issue. Poor fetal growth would be a placenta assumed issue thus when baby is developmentally appropriate, birth is a wiser choice.
I can tell Lydia loves Trace and respects him, looks to him for leadership. Beautiful couple ❤
trace I can see and feel your concern for baby. Don't ever know how to take Lydia she laughs at everything and to be going to Arizona is probably not a great idea. I just come back from there and it is HOT HOT. prayers for safe travels and healthy delivery. trace you are such a blessing. your concern and heart is so geniune. Lydia go prepared to stay a few days at the hospital if baby is indeed small you will be there a little while for safety precautions. prayers thank you for sharing
I know from experience & others close to me traveling is not good the last month. Praying for you all & your little one.🙏💙
Yes, careful for travel, prayers for a safe delivery 💙
I was 6 weeks early and my little girl was 4.5 lbs. She is now 28 yrs old chemistry/ mathematics masters degrees, pianist, musician, black belt in tae Kwan do . Nothing will stop your little Ryker! God bless you so!
My nephew was born at 26 weeks and weighed 2.5 lbs. He was in the NICU for 6 weeks. The good Lord graciously helped him and my sister through a difficult time. My nephew is now almost 28 years old, and he is healthy and happy! The good Lord has everything under control, and He has you, Trace and Ryker in His loving arms!!❤
I just wanna tell you both not to worry! I had a baby boy full term 40 weeks weighing 4’13
and he is now 6 feet tall muscular healthy young man at the age of 19 😃 so please don’t let this scare you!!! Ryker will be a very active little boy who will grown into a strong young man!!! 😘
I work in an OB office and babies growing at a slower rate it is definitely recommended to lay down on your left side to increase blood flow to the placenta. Sending you prayers.❤
I think I'd maybe cancel the trip, I'd want to stay at home chilled, relaxing and eating 😆
Your baby will fine. I had twins at 37w 4d they both weighed 5lbs 9oz. Today they are both 6’2”. Every baby grows at their own rate. Blessings❤️
not sure I would be going away for a week, not really a good idea. I would let the doctor know you are plannning to fly to Arizona and see what he/she thinks about it.
13:18
tHE DOCTOR IS BEING VERY CAUTIOUS.
Prayers for baby Ryker. Please listen to your doctor and stay home ok. 🙏🙏❤💙
PLEASE pray about the decision to induce. Unless it’s an emergency situation, the best and safest place for your little guy to be is right where he is. Don’t let doctors “rush” you into inducing. Let Ryker continue to grow and develop until at least 40 wks, if it’s safe for you to do so. I know you guys are anxious to have him in your arms but there really isn’t a reason to induce, based on what y’all have said. Praying for clarity and peace for you both.
Thank you so much for your comment!! I was trying to find the words to say the exact same thing. I feel that doctors today are taking these babies too early either by inducing labor or by C-section when there's no real emergency. And Yes, barring any threatening emergency, the absolute best place for that baby is inside mom!!! Again, Thank you!!!
My granddaughter had to be induced at 37 weeks because my great grandson Ryker was very small. He weighed 4 lbs and 10 ounces. He was so tiny. He didn’t go to NICU what a blessing that was. My prayers are with all of you and your baby Ryker..
As a former mother/baby nurse, you don’t need to bring much to the hospital. They will give you everything you need for caring for Ryker. You will also most likely go home with extra diapers, wipes etc. Also, as a mom of 4 older kids, you guys look very prepared, and if you’re missing something then i’m sure that one of your family members will get it for you. Try to enjoy these last few weeks as a family of two. Go to a movie or on some other date. Blessings! 😊
I had a small baby (IUGR) and I was really glad of the premie nappies and babygrows as everything else absolutely drowned him. I marvel now at how tiny he was when I look at them now. I will pray for you and Ryker that the Lord will protect him and keep him safe
Trace is very mature and I can see he is aware of the situation and concerned. Everything will work out but you can see that you are “ aware “ and have a good understanding of the doctors concern. Gods blessings and all will be as it is meant to be 🙏🏻🙏🏻💙
They told my mom that I was really small and to go on bed rest...I weighed 10lbs 11ounces when I was born...you just never know what to expect!
Love and prayers to all of you!❤
My prayers are with you Lydia and Trace. Lifting Ryker to the Lord in prayer for his safe delivery and for his parents that they have courage, strength and wisdom for all the right decisions. Lydia please take care of yourself, you must also rest as you will need not to stress so you will be healthy throughout this process. So praying for all three and trusting God to be beside you every step of the way. We love you all 🙏💞
Ps..Lydia you are looking so beautiful 😍
Yes LydiA& Trace Congratulations 🎉 on Labor Day😂🎉Min Çheryl Mckiver ❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤❤
I had my babyboy at 36weeks and 4days. 5lbs11oz and now his the talllest of his class. Prayers for y’all 🙏🏼
Sending prayers for all of you!! Please try to rest as much as you can now Lydia - you need it more than ever now!! I can’t wait to see little Ryker!!
Praying for y’all!
Our grandson came 2 weeks early because of the same reason, they said he only weighed 3 lbs.
when he was born he was 6 lbs and not 3 so just have faith. GOD HAS GOT YALL AND RYKER.🙏🙏❤️
37 weeks is considered full term. He will be fine prayers and love to Ryker and momma 🎉❤🎉
37 weeks is actually considered early term. 40 weeks is a guess, statistics show that most first time moms deliver around 41 weeks and it's completely normal. 40 weeks is not the "due by" date🤗
*Edited to correct a spelling mistake
@@meganekstedt2518 there's a LOT of brain development weeks 38-40! And yes, completely fine and normal to go 41 weeks or even longer. When the Father speaks the word that it's time, that baby will arrive at the exact time of His will.
I had twins at 38 weeks and my daughter was 4lbs 10 oz. No NICU. And when we took her home she was 4lbs 1 oz. She was healthy and stayed in the lower 10% for the first couple of years. She was tiny but didn’t stay in premie clothes for long! Y’all got this!! Exciting!!!
So exciting waiting for the little baby to be born! I sure hope and pray Lydia cancels her "girls trip" to Arizona though, it would be safer for her and the baby to stay close to home now.
I had a baby at 34 weeks and she weighed 3pounds 14 oz . I had preeclampsia. My doctor said she was better out then in. I was on 5 weeks on bed rest. Prayers for a healthy baby and mom. It will be fine
Our first was a 32 weeker weighing 3 lbs 5 oz. He’s 36 now and living his best life.
Baby Ryker will be a healthy happy baby. Prayers. 🙏🏻💙🙏🏻
Y'all are going to be great parents!!! Really, y'all are GREAT PARENTS ALREADY!!!! You became parents when you found out that your pregnant. It doesn't feel real to some people until the baby has arrived. Ryker is a blessed baby simply because y'all are his parents.
I have a cousin who weighed only 4 pounds when he was born and he wasn't a preemie. He's now in his 40s and is 6 foot 4! I felt so sorry for y'all when you were sitting in your car telling us about the baby. You looked terrified! He'll be fine and will gain weight quickly after he's born. Getting everything ready will calm your nerves. God bless you both! Thank you for sharing with us!
While you’re packing don’t forget you and Traces favorite snacks. Prayers for a healthy delivery!!
What i really love is how your little baby is coming home to such a calm peaceful household. You both are great together.❤
Prayer's for Ryker and his parents.
I had c-section due to being age 45 had my son 5 lbs. 13 oz. He grew fast after delivery!. 21 now online engineering❤❤❤ My Dad / Uncle twins 3lbs at home birth kept in shoe boxes by fireplace for warmth. Dad now 97 no meds my Uncle went to be with Jesus in his 90s ❤❤❤
Prayers for mom dad and baby Ryker
Mama Tip…write out scriptures to read while in labor to keep your mind calm and at peace in the Lord!! It really helps!!! And don’t forget to spend time educating yourself on breastfeeding and how to care for a baby. Those are two topics I wish I spent more time on before my first. I spent more time on learning about labor but not enough on the others. Praying for your remaining weeks and for your labor/delivery!🙏🏻💙👶🏻
You can play soothing praise music too.
I agree I wasn’t prepared for the caretaking of myself and baby but they are both from big families so they have probably had hands on experience more than I had.
Yes, I agree!!!
Saying extra prayers for Ryker and all the family. Also, I LOVED the nursing tanks. They are super comfortable, easy for breast feeding. I was induced at 37 weeks with my son and he weighed 5lbs 15oz and 18.5 inches. He wore premie clothes for a couple of months. I know you’re having a boy but the premie style nightgown worked very well. I’m praying for you all.
Yes.....if you can find the gowns....they make it so easy when changing a diaper in the middle of the night.
Please be careful traveling. Watch for swelling especially. ❤
It is always better to be over prepared than under prepared. Praying for baby Ryker and for a smooth, healthy, and easy delivery!!
My daughter was a week early of her due date and weighted 4 lbs 13 ozs. The hospital did not consider her a preemie, but a low birth weight baby. She came home at 4 lbs 8 ozs.Within a week she gained 1 pound and weighed 5 lbs 8 ozs. Little babies grow fast.
God will protect you and Ryker. Stay positive. Take care of yourself and rest when you can. I recommend that you pack preemie clothes and diapers. Preemie clothing goes up to 6lbs, but I didn't have that option, because I wasn't able to find preemie clothing over 45 years ago.
Lydia is So Beautiful! Try to live in each Moment. It will fly by!
Prayers for Ryker and parents!! You guys got this!!
Also bring your own pillow and a portable fan (it will make you more comfortable and it drowns out the hospital noise) Also bring an extension cord. I also brought my nursing pillow(it really helps when you and Ryker are learning to feed.
Don’t worry, my daughter just went through this she just had her baby girl at 37 week due to IUGR. Because of growth, they said she weighed 5lbs 3 oz at 35 weeks when she was born she weighed 4lbs 15 ozs. She’s perfectly healthy and a week old now!!
But gaining a lb a week the last 4 weeks would've put her baby around 8 lbs full term. Glad she's doing well, but it sounds like little one was perfectly healthy growing in momma.
@@famservingyah765 Its really dangerous for little babies to stay in the womb the last few weeks, my sisters best friend lost her baby due to this a couple weeks ago because they didn’t take him soon enough they really need to be taken at 37 weeks, the placenta just doesn’t work as well and can stop working. It’s very scary I was so proud my daughters dr had the knowledge she needed to get her out at 37 weeks, she was measuring 5lbs 3 oz at 35 weeks and only weighed 4lbs 15oz. At 37 weeks, so their measurements are always off give or take a pound! We just have to pray everything will be okay🙏❤️
@@lindseywilliams61 I didn't catch that in your comment, that the baby was losing weight! Please forgive my misunderstanding on that!
I was thinking on Trace and Lydia saying everything looked good for them, and the doctor saying the placenta doesn't do anything the last two weeks... that it was good right now.
I am worried as my baby is 22 weeks 5 days but measuring 22 weeks. Im so worried already
@@tasmiyahgilchrist2504Oh Bless your heart. I promise it will be okay. Hopefully if he/she stays measuring small they will order ultrasounds every week Or every two weeks. Just to keep an eye on everything. They will only check the weight every month. That’s exactly how my daughters baby was at first 5 days behind, you never know though they may catch up in the end. Please try not and worry yourself. You will be in my prayers❤️ I pray they will be just strong and healthy! Just talk to your doctors ask questions about being IUGR if they are still behind and aren’t talking about early induction by 37/38 weeks you go somewhere else. 🙏❤️
I'm Happy for You Both that "Ryker Cruise Bates" will be here before You know it, so until He actually arrives, I would get as much Rest as You possibly can and Enjoy Your Time with Each Other... You Both are going to be Awesome Parents to Your Precious Little Boy 💙... God Bless You Always Trace and Lydia.
Wow how exciting! Best laid plans!! Prayers for you two and the baby!! Can't wait to see him!
The hospital provides you with diapers and wipes. They were pampers when I had my babies. You will most likely need the premie, my sons were 6 lbs and wore premie for a month. Also nightgowns are the best for changing diapers in the middle of the night. Prayers to you for a safe delivery, don’t worry too much! Absolutely love you guys ❤!
Praying for baby Ryker and his parents. This a such a special time. Love you guys and your vlog.
I’m excited for you guys. It’s the sweetest thing seeing you all prepare for his arrival. Praying for healthy baby and mama in the end.
Praying for y’all as you prepare to meet your sweet little man. Trust in the Lord and everything will turn out fine!! God bless 💙
Y’all should call Katie and Travis because Hailey was due on March 4th but was born on February 17. She weighed 6lb 1Oz and even preemie clothes swallowed her. They also said don’t bring everything that people on the Internet tell you to bring because there were a lot of things they didn’t even use. She would have a lot of good advice for you.
Prayers for you having a easy stressful birth and bring your own maxi pads the ones at the hospital are huge and uncomfortable.Take care and God Bless your little family ...
Thanks for the video
Sleepers are the best for baby.Trace and Lydia you are going to be great parents ❤️
Praying for y’all! You guys and baby Ryker is in the Lords hands. Love y’all’s video and beautiful lil fam! God bless you guys always ❤
I'm 38 weeks pregnant with identical twins girls 💖💖
This is so precious. Exciting, prayer for a beautiful labor and birth-
Praying for you and Ryker Lydia you look tired sweetie rest as much as you can while you can . That’s my advice from a mama of 5 . Praying for growth 😊❤
Praying for Ryker’s growth and healthy birthweight.
WG football game tonight. 3:46
I pray it all goes well. I had an emergency c section at 34 weeks due to IUGR and complications. It all turned out well with lots of prayers and our Faith in God got us thru.
Praying for you all 🙏🏻 baby Ryker will be in your arms in no time at all 💙
My daughter was a small baby and came 2 weeks early. She weighed just under 5 lbs when born. Perfectly normal. Do not worry it will be okay.
I'm so excited for you two! I've been following your pregnancy journey along with my son & daughter-in-love, who are 2 weeks time ahead of you, and living in TN from OK. I am praying for both healthy babies and moms too! 🙏🏽💕🙏🏽
Congratulations! What exciting news!! Our 3rd n youngest son was born on September 16 . We got to pick the date cause he was taken c section. This September he will be 20 years old! Baby Ryker will be your precious gift from God!
You’ll do great and another sweet little Bates grandchild is coming soon!!
Hope to see pictures, Prayers for a healthy baby
My midwife has always told me, as long as baby is staying consistent with their own growth, it doesn’t matter if you make big or small babies❤️
Glad to see you packing comfy things for Ryker. That's what I always let my babies wear. Prayers for Ryker and both of you 🙏🏻🙏🏻🙏🏻
Y'all are the cutest couple, your baby boy Ryker- (by the way, 😀 LOVE the name Ryker!!) is such a blessed baby to have you as parents! GOD IS 👍 so Good!! 💕 I had one baby early, by 8 days, and one later than due date- wish I could have picked dates like they do now! Best to you 3☺️🤩
He may be in premie clothes for a couple weeks. You may need a few outfits! 🙏🏻. Enjoy these sweet moments!
One thing I recommend is Baby Aquaphor!!! Best diaper cream out there!! You won’t need any other kind
Prayers for all of you.
Thank you both for sharing your baby story with us. I send you the best wishes for a healthy baby boy. My thoughts and prayers are with you. I can't wait to see little Ryker.
🙏😊❤️
You guys are so cute! Praying for you and baby Ryker❤
My granddaughter was an IUGR baby born at 34 weeks 3.14 lbs. She is now a happy healthy 7 yo. Prayers for all🙏🏻
Prayers for little Ryker!
Lydia, you are a beautiful pregnant lady!
I’d be very nervous going on a trip…
I had my triplets at 33/4 and they’re super healthy “normal” sized preschoolers! One was IUGR and she’s 100%great, was mostly just lighter weight before she 2. Try not to worry too much!!! It’s great you’re being monitored and looked after well. Best wishes for continued good health for you and baby boy.
Praying for the baby and mom.
Praying for little baby and mama 🙏 I had my little one at 34 weeks 1 day. On July 4th. He was tiny. His weight was 3lbs 14oz. We were in the nicu for 37 days. We are home now.
Same story with my little guy, 34 weeks, 3lbs 14oz, and was in
NICU four weeks. So, now he is 25 yrs old and doing the career he said he said he wanted when he was four and trained from then to 17, when got first job being a paid actor/performer. @triciaw7899 and @Trace&Lydia, you will be great, you can do this! Be willing to accept help, give you and baby time to grow and heal. May you feel God with you. Blessings!
I just love you both so much. I love following your journey.
I am going to be praying for you guys and baby Ryker. I myself was born premature at 33 weeks and I have been fighting for my life very since. I feel like baby Ryker is going to be a fighter and continuing to Praise God
Try not to worry too much. God's got this and is taking care of all of the details. Babies grown the most in the final weeks. Rest and get plenty of fluids.
Be prepared to deliver at any time. If he stops growing you will be induced there and then
Sorry to hear that Ryker is coming sooner than you guys expected.🙁 Pray everything goes well. Lydia,maybe you should cancel or opt out of your girls trip to be on the safe side. Glad your prepared both ways for preemie and newborn clothes and diapers. The week your getting induced my church is having Missions Conference so now I have two things to look forward to that week.😁
I keep praying for precious Ryker … he may be small, but healthy is what matters for both mama and baby.
I’m in faith for a safe delivery in Jesus name amen. 🙏🏽
This is so exciting. I’m so excited for the both of you. Can’t wait for a little Rykers arrival.❤
We love you! I came out at 3 lbs and 3 oz so he will be ok. But I will pray he gets to at least 6 lbs just for peace of mind.
You will be awesome Mama and Daddy!!! God has ya'll!
Are you flying to Arizona? Might want to check with airline for pregnancy restrictions.
Awww how exciting 😊 my smallest son was born September 12th. It was a great day to have a baby boy
Y’all have got this. Prayers for you all.
Lydia and Trace I’m praying for you both and little Ryker. Prayers for easy and safe delivery.
What a shocker??!!! Can't wait to see the baby and see the both of you as parents. You're gonna be great.
Prayers and wishing you calmness while waiting for your beautiful boy to arrive.
Also add a plain white onesie to go underneath baby’s going home outfit 👶🏻
Yes, yes me too, it seems most don’t use these as much but baby needs these for many months. They keep snaps, zippers etc away from their precious skin, which can irritate baby’s without parents realizing…mine are grown and still wear undershirts. Great comment!!! Also try to buy all cotton only for baby’s as there’s a lot of synthetic clothing today and often mixed with cottons which can cause rashes on baby’s new skin.
I can't believe baby Ryker is almost here!! Prayers that everything goes well with delivery and with baby's size. ❤
The same thing happened to my daughter when she had my grandson last year but she found out at her last OB appt and sent her straight to the hospital. She did amazing for her first child at 19 and 10 hours of labor at start of induction. Good luck and congratulations! He will probably wear prememe clothes and diapers. My grandson was 5lbs and my daughter is tiny.
YaaaaaaY can't wait to meet him!!!!! I'd say just be resting, don't do too much 💙
You won’t regret having more pictures! We used a ton of bibs in the hospital. The little mittens are super helpful!
