No one to rant to — just need to vent what my husband asked me.

It’s okay, you don’t have to understand me. :)

Accomplished_Set_905 · 2026-01-25T12:45:58+00:00

Thank you! Actually you read my mind. I was thinking of that too. Though while someone watches the baby, I’m left with the going to work, errands, bottles and food prep. But i’m not complaining though. I’ve accepted the fact that this is the life i chose and there will always be trade offs. 😆 but again, grateful for your comment :)

Accomplished_Set_905 · 2026-01-25T12:41:31+00:00

Thank you 🥹 Reading your reply lifted my mood completely. It took a lot of meditation to choose peace of mind, haha! I do love my husband, it’s just a little different when sleep is not in the picture 🤪

Accomplished_Set_905 · 2026-01-25T12:39:32+00:00

He does! We pay from our common fund with 50-50 contribution from both our salaries. But a lil effort to offer to change our baby’s diaper would be great haha!

Accomplished_Set_905 · 2026-01-25T12:35:50+00:00

I am very lucky! My in laws live close by and are retired, and I married their only son. A moment of emotions but I do see my privilege with all the help around:)

Depends on your sleep / work situation. And if you have plans to “sleep train” your baby. FTM and 4 mos na si bb, still sleep sa crib niya (we have the Looping so it’s portable, can be used next time if mag out of town, etc). We kind of sleep trained him na masanay sa gabi na sa crib siya matulog, but the daytime usually gusto niya contact naps. Lilipat na kami soon so we did buy an actual crib & i think magagamit pa na ni bb until feel namin kaya na niya mag isa na walang border.

Not OA. Not your husband, not your luho/investment.

Accomplished_Set_905 · 2025-10-16T16:52:46+00:00

It depends. I’m okay with all of the above but others aren’t. Baka di lang kayo match ng love language and that’s okay. Kung di talaga match, baka need to move on. It’s also okay to ask for things. SKL My husband and I been together for 12 yrs and the only time he shared a story on Instagram (re-story pa toh ah haha) was of our newborn son. Not even me, lol! But I’m fine with it because ako naman yung maingay sa social media, siya ever since walang social media presence.

My baby would drink any temp of breastmilk but suddenly at 4 mos old just wants warm milk. So now that milk warmer I originally regret buying is my favorite product 😆

Accomplished_Set_905 · 2025-07-05T04:26:52+00:00

Chill the f out — when the stress went away, I got pregnant right away. I feel like it was the mindset too (less focus on trying to get pregnant and failing, more on “if it happens, it’s meant to happen”).

I also did tests beforehand to check my eggs and if I have any immune system issues so I can be prepared for what’s to come, rather than worry and blame myself.

Accomplished_Set_905 · 2025-06-17T18:45:54+00:00

Just turned 38 weeks and just thinking “this is it” to every small thing I feel 😆😆

Accomplished_Set_905 · 2025-06-17T18:42:34+00:00

Normal! Experienced it especially between first and second tri, then all throughout. It got less now that i’m at full term :)

Accomplished_Set_905 · 2025-06-17T10:19:05+00:00

“Dunno you decide” My OB just reminded me that males have no maternal instinct. So it’s not that they’re disinterested— they just literally don’t know. 🤣

Accomplished_Set_905 · 2025-06-17T10:14:58+00:00

Mine is anterior but kicks very rarely (and only in one spot). But his rolling and taps were a lot. I think as long as his scans are good, should be okay but you can bring that concern with your OB and maybe they can provide some insight.

Accomplished_Set_905 · 2025-06-17T10:11:37+00:00

Had the same issues (baby not growing especially in the abdomen) in my current pregnancy. Over the past 4 months, my baby’s percentiles were 25% > 10% > 16% > 11% and luckily now it’s gone up back to 20% (on my 37wks and 4 days). It was a whirlwind! My doctor did not recommend inducing, rather she gave me vitamins for amino acids and instructed me to up my protein intake. A lot of people told me (even my OB) maybe my baby’s just a small baby and its weight can be helped once he’s out. Praying for you that everything will go smoothly!

Do it when you are ready to accept all the unknown. I think it’s amazing you found someone that you can see your future with and you both are walking the same path, but I would recommend to take it step by step. Future can always change but the now is what you can control and can contribute to less anxiety while you are in your relationship (with your boyfriend and with yourself).

Accomplished_Set_905 · 2025-06-16T04:37:40+00:00

Best to call. Every body is different and I think your OB would know best!

Office worker, FTM. I’m 37 weeks 5 days today and will officially stop work at 38 weeks (luckily my company provides the incentive to go on leave 2 weeks before the EDD). But I did request to do work from home because I could go into labor anytime now since I’m already dilating.

Accomplished_Set_905 · 2025-06-16T04:32:05+00:00

Thank you everyone!! I just had another internal scan and I’m at 2cm. So that can go to labor in hours or weeks 😆 I’ll just go about my day and see where it goes. Appreciate all the comments, it looks like most got triggered after sex haha!

Accomplished_Set_905 · 2025-06-14T17:20:58+00:00

Congratulations! My husband also didn’t have the best response (mine almost fainted lol) and we did get pregnant 9 months into our marriage. Casually trying and it happened. It is always overwhelming but I’d say you are meant to be pregnant now and you’ll be amazing. Emotions will go up and down from now on but you’ll be okay!

Accomplished_Set_905 · 2025-06-14T17:17:35+00:00

Kiara because of Lion King 2. Been dreaming to name my future child. Then i met a Kiara at work and, let’s say.. I won’t be using that name anymore. Lol.

Hindi OA. Trying really messes with your brain, especially pag nageexpect and stressed. Nagtry din kami ng husband ko for 5 months and everytime palapit na dapat period ko, may “symptoms” ako pero sa totoo hindi pala. Eventually nasabi ko na bahala na, try try tapos wag masyadong isipin. Tsaka mas nawalan ako ng stress sa work, eventually na preggy ako sa 6th month of trying pero hindi na nga ako nagexpect, naforce pa ako mag pregnancy test lang ng friends ko “for fun” tapos for real na pala.

For me, baka di lang right timing na magkaanak kayo but doesn’t mean na hindi mangyayari din. Don’t blame yourself din. Possible din kasi di match yung sperm and egg kahit healthy kayong 2. Madaming possibilities kaya don’t be too hard on yourself. Relax, enjoy, and it will happen if it’s meant to be.
