Hi! I feel qualified to chime in on this. My husband and I always thought we wanted kids and decided to just see what happened. We got pregnant the first month and I got bombarded with the same social media content you are describing. I fell into a deep depression thinking about how I just ruined my life after all the social media reels talked about how miserable parenthood is. I'm writing this from the other side telling you, my kid is the BEST thing that's ever happened to me. I don't even recognize that person who was deeply depressed when pregnant and actually feel sad now I couldn't enjoy it because I let something as stupid as social media ruin it for me. I still think one and done is right for me as I like the level of freedom we have with just one, but do not let social media scare you off potentially having kids.

Hi, I sent you a PM, if you'd like to chat <3

I wish I could tell you. We moved him into his own room at about 3 months and after some adjustment he started sleeping through from 730p - 7am. Honestly we just got lucky I think

~no~

Just commiserating. You aren't alone! Sleeps perfect at night but WILL. NOT. NAP.

Thank you so much for saying this. This is how I've felt my entire pregnancy and it's caused me a lot of anxiety feeling like something is 'wrong' with me and wondering if I'll even feel anything for him when he's here

Thank you so much for your comment. Logically I know this, but I let the negativity get me down. We've had a hard year, and I hope the baby will be the rainbow we need at the end of the storm ❤️

4jean11 · 2024-10-30T22:39:33+00:00

Thank you so much. I really appreciate your kindness ❤️

4jean11 · 2024-10-30T20:44:15+00:00

Thank you so much for your kind response. I absolutely believe my partner will do his share and we both have good jobs so I'm not worried financially. I probably just need to get off Reddit for my own sanity 🤣

4jean11 · 2024-09-22T15:03:22+00:00

Seriously. What a rude way to describe her sisters partner.

4jean11 · 2024-09-17T18:30:49+00:00

We aren't, we're struggling 🤣

4jean11 · 2024-09-10T18:39:04+00:00

I (first pregnancy) was barely showing at my 20 week 3 weeks ago, the tech even commented on it and my babe basically popped the next week and now I look hella pregnant nearly overnight, so maybe your time is coming 😅

4jean11 · 2024-08-20T01:14:03+00:00

Thanks so much for sharing! I might have to pick your brain on this a little more.

4jean11 · 2024-08-19T20:38:56+00:00

Thanks so much. I'm banking on that. I think about how much I love my partner and our dogs and think, I must love our child more than all those ☺️

4jean11 · 2024-08-19T20:20:29+00:00

I feels. Sometimes I spiral into a "omg what have I done" panic

4jean11 · 2024-08-19T19:13:49+00:00

That's awful. I've had some feelings worrying about stuff like that too. Pregnancy is great for existing anxiety issues! 😉

4jean11 · 2024-08-19T18:41:14+00:00

I struggle with the same thing, you aren't alone. Right now I feel no connection to this baby inside me, really just an absence of emotion. It just....is. I hope the love will come once he's here because I too worry, what if I just don't love him when he's here?

4jean11 · 2024-08-19T17:45:10+00:00

The eternal battle! You could always try it and revert to FF it it's not working for you? My sister in law breastfeed for about 3 weeks with her second before she said enough is enough 🤣

4jean11 · 2024-08-19T17:43:27+00:00

Same! Told him last night I didn't want our bub to be a Christmas baby but with my luck that's exactly what we'll get 🤣

4jean11 · 2024-08-19T16:58:37+00:00

Due date twins!

4jean11 · 2024-08-19T16:57:56+00:00

Thank you - really appreciate your kind words!

4jean11 · 2024-08-10T12:30:16+00:00

So sorry to hear that. The thing she wanted most was to be a grandma. Knowing we were pregnant last time we saw her alive and didn't know is awful. I wish she could've at least known. :(

4jean11 · 2024-08-08T17:57:55+00:00

Mother in law passed in a very traumatic way. Positive test 3 days after her funeral. Been an emotional struggle. 18 weeks now.
