i have recently been treated for pid of unknown origin. my symptoms are back. will i have to undergo iv therapy? should my fiance be treated?

Question

How many treatments for having PID for 3 months? Its severe.. Had one treatment feel 75% better tho. Could it spread to intestines also?

Answer 1

Possibly: If you're been treated for pid before and you have it again, you may or may not need IV therapy, depending on your clinical picture. You should definitely see a physician right away to determine the type of antibiotic treatment you need. Your partner should also be treated. Pid can cause scarring and infertility, so definitely be seen as soon as possible.

Answer 2

It depends: I am sorry that your symptoms are back. If you have pelvic inflammatory disease (pid)you should notify all of your partners so that they can be treated. You should see your physician to repeat testing for sexually transmitted infections as there could be other causes for your symptoms. If positive your fiance should be treated. Whether you need IV or not will depend on the cause and severity.

Answer 3

Depends: If you are going back to work at 6 or 8 weeks, you need to store up some milk early. Start pumping and storing by a month. If you have a longer time before you go back, you can wait to store until a month or two before going back. But you will likely be pumping before that in order to give the baby breastmilk in a bottle, an important skill for baby to develop prior to your return to work!

Answer 4

After 2-3 weeks: The first 2-3 weeks after delivery are very hectic. After that, any extra pumped milk can be bagged and stored in a deep freezer for several months. A baggie of milk can be stored in a regular freezer (of a refrigerator) for up to 1 month.

Answer 5

Start slow: If you can try to start back in the middle of the week so that you have a short first week. If your work allows try to work shorter days at first so you are not away from your baby as long. Make sure you are comfortable with your daycare situation and bring a picture of your baby to work with you so you can always take a quick peek at their cute face!

Answer 6

Think differently.: Think of it as a positive and empowering experience that ultimately will reduce the anxiety.

Answer 7

Yes: Going back to work and leaving your little one in daycare or with a nanny is hard. Make sure you are comfortable with your daycare situation and bring a small picture of your baby to set on your desk. Its also normal to feel not quite prepared to work again, your days have been spent cooing and changing diapers, not working! take it slow and you will find a good balance between work and family.

Answer 8

Yes: Definately! to help with the nerves, make sure you have your morning routine planned out and you may even want to do a dry run leaving your child at daycare for a few hours before your actual return to work. It'll take both you and your child a few days to get used to the new routine, but a lot of moms find they are better moms for their time at work!

Answer 9

Yes: Yes! who wants to leave such a precious bundle of joy so early? Being comfortable with the caretakers and being able t to trust them is important. That really calms the nervousness, knowing your baby will be cared for while you are at work. And once you are back in the "swing" of things, i hope you find the balance very rewarding.

Answer 10

Yes: It is very normal to feel worried about leaving your baby to go back to work. Both moms and dads experience this, especially after having a new baby. It does often get better in time.

Answer 11

Yes: It is normal to feel nervous to go back to work after having a baby. One needs to make arrangement for the baby in advance and decide how many hours are you going to work, make sure if you are going to pump breast milk at work you have a set/ arranged schedule. Thinking and having a plan will decrease your anxiety.

Answer 12

Yes: You know you will miss the baby; you worry about whether you can pump enough milk; you are exhausted, you are distracted! should you be nervous? Yes! but have you become a less capable employee? Likely not. You are still intelligent, prepared, motivated. You will accomplish much more in a day than your counterpart who is not mothering a tiny baby. Hang in there!

Answer 13

After having a baby?: It can be hard for a mom or dad to return to work after spending weeks dedicated to the care of a newborn. Going back to work will mean missing being with the baby for much of the day. However, life must go on, and parents have to earn a living to support the family. Having extended family around, such as enthusiastic grandparents, may be helpful.

Answer 14

Yes: You love your child, of course it isn't a great feeling to have to leave your child in the care of others.

Answer 15

Yes!: Several brace companies offer posture braces. These may be purchased on your own, but you may have the optimal results if you have one prescribed by an orthopaedic physician, so that you can receive the proper fit, adjustments and instructions on use. Use of these braces should be in conjunction with strengthening exercises, particularly of the muscles around the shoulder blade (scapula).

Answer 16

Depends: How are you unhealthy? That is the central question. In general, exercise, diet, and proper sleep are good for anybody.
