You can just use water and if you really want something whatever unscented cleanser with clean ingredients you like is fine. Dr Jen Gunter has a great article about this.

What am I missing??? I never changed my soaps just had my second baby. I use dove bodywash. Or is this something specific for like douching?

You should not be douching at all, but definitely not while pregnant. Otherwise any external cleaning can be done with your normal body soap. The list of ingredients not to use is the same as any other part of your body.

I just use my regular clean detergent— Heritage Park unscented. They make a delicates wash too but I just use the regular one in the delicates cycle.

First day of 30mg vyvanse today.

Is this normal? Should I stick it out for a few days or is this a big sign that I’m not on the right meds/dose? Nervous to keep trialling this during the workday since a midday crash is not ideal. Appreciate any advice!

Hi everyone,
So I had my NIPT and NT scans last week and I’ve been getting pieces of the results back from my doctor in the patient portal. All seems okay but I’m a bit confused. Does anyone know if FirstScreen is the same thing as NIPT? I was under the impression that NIPT was in 90th percent of certainty for Down syndrome but the result we got, labeled FirstScreen indicate 83% certainty so I’m confused if there are more results coming? I messaged the doctor but haven’t heard back yet.
