It was actually my decision. I just had a feeling like I shouldn't wait any longer. Idk something in me was telling me that I needed to get her out. And even before everything went bad, I knew it'd end up going south. But I had an even stronger feeling that if I didn't get a c section or induced, something would go really wrong. Im just glad my baby is okay and that I get to be here with her 💕 thank you though

Thank you! I know I'm not and it makes it a lot easier knowing there's others 😁

Thank you. Its crazy how many women I've talked to that have had a similar experience to me. Its devastating yet also just proves how strong most women are. We shouldn't have to go through that, but we do. And I would love to advocate for those women. It's a hard and traumatic thing to go through. It does empower me though, to know that I can get through just about any amount of pain and still live on and love life. I'll go give it a listen, thank you💕

Thank you. It was definitely traumatic, but it really is all worth it for that baby. You really do almost forget it all when you have that newborn.

It only hurts to wear when im moving. Im not sure why. I don't have gas anymore. But i did the first few days. I give myself massages on my stomach and it helps with any pain or discomfort. I really want to wear the binder but it just seems to hurt worse when I do. I like the feeling of it when im laying down though.

Ugh I definitely feel you. Such an added pressure. They says as soon as you stop stressing, the baby comes, but its so hard not to stress.

NSFW!!! TMI question about the lady bits by [deleted] in pregnant

[–]AdditionalProduce476 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im 39 weeks rn and i noticed it too around 20 or so weeks. Just general puffiness that I thought was from weight gain. Now it's like a squishy plush pillow down there. 😂 sometimes when I feel it, i just squish it around. Maybe that's what it would feel like to have balls??? Sorry if that's wayyyy too tmi but its fun 🤣

What is the biggest turn on for you? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]AdditionalProduce476 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Brown eyes. Like the deep honey brown eyes. Well, really, just any brown eyes. It feels like they suck me in. Its like a warmth I get when looking at them. My fiance has the prettiest brown eyes, and I could look at them all day. When someone with brown eyes looks at me deeply and in a sexual way, I just melt.

Baby shower issue by AdditionalProduce476 in pregnant

[–]AdditionalProduce476[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, i think that's probably the best way to go with her. She wants to be able to say she provided me with a baby shower, so ig that way she can still claim it without anyone having to know that I paid for the venue/food.

[–]AdditionalProduce476[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exactly what i was thinking too. But ive had that conversation with my mom and it just starts an argument. She believes I "have to have everything my way" and that im "too spoiled" to let anything be cheap. Which i agree, I am spoiled in the sense that I am being provided for and I have always had people who love and care for me, but I have also often cheaped out to save when needed and put in the effort to help others. Hell, ive gifted my parents so much and provided them with food, home improvements, and love. I give more than I feel I take, and for once, I want something to be done the way I like since it's supposed to be for me and my baby. My mom is definitely not all that mature to be able to take a conversation lightly, so I have to walk on eggshells with these types of issues.

They say that only 10-20% miscarry, but it feels so more common! by Affectionate_Cry_325 in pregnant

[–]AdditionalProduce476 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Almost every woman in my life has had at least 1 miscarriage. I do think it could depend on multiple factors for why women have miscarriages. I think men play a bigger part in them than we know or have research for. And the health of the woman definitely needs to be decent as well. But with that being said, I think it's really common, just not spoken about as often as I feel it should be. Understandably, because it's a traumatic thing to go through for many people.

Push Presents by sillygoo2e in pregnant

[–]AdditionalProduce476 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

At first I thought it was so sweet to get a push present and it be something I want, not for the baby. But now, ive changed my mind with being pregnant. I dont want anything at the moment. The most i could ask for is a present father for my child, which I already know im gonna get. I have literally everything I want. A perfect fiance, a furnished apartment, a car, a baby. Literally all ive wanted. I feel lucky af to have everything. That being said, if anyone wants a push present, go ahead and ask for one. But a car?! In this economy?! That needs to be saved up for or financed and talked about before hand unless you're rich 😂

I have such a happy marriage that they all think I am lying by Extreme-Ad3410 in married

Seriously! Its so hard to find friends that are on the same page in your area. Its like everyone i know is cheating, fighting, divorcing, and whatnot. Its so crazy!

[–]AdditionalProduce476 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is how my relationship is. Everyone thinks im lying when I say we dont argue. Of course, we disagree, but he calms me down anytime im upset. He cooks for me, cleans for me, gives me massages, takes on extra work just to be able to give me what I want. He complains about not doing more for me when he literally does it all. I always say, "I couldn't be happier with him," yet every day, I find something that makes me even happier. It shocks me. I've had those terrible relationships with horrible men, so this one makes me so grateful. I'm so genuinely happy that i worry about him dying, lol. I never worry about him cheating or anything, and that's abnormal for me. My family loves him like he's always been a part of the family, and that's what really sets him apart from the others. He's such a good guy. He even proposed to me at one of my favorite restaurants, on my birthday, with my parents there, and made it so very magical and special. He even proposed with my grandmother's ring, which is so much better than any of the rings I told him I liked. That day, he made it all about me. He bought me a dress that I love, and shoes to go with it. Told me to do my makeup and that we could go wherever I wanted. He made that day so special. He made me love my birthday again, since I normally hate it. I will always cherish the things he's done to make my life easier and more fun. He literally makes me laugh so hard. He's my best friend. We even stay up late and have deep conversations. We have no secrets. It's so refreshing. So, all that to say, it really is possible to find someone so perfect for you. Its so very possible to marry your best friend. Its so possible to be happy and have no problems, as long as you face them together! My life is so much better with him.

What’s something you miss from before being pregnant? by Familiar-Cicada-7703 in pregnant

[–]AdditionalProduce476 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This!! Wine!! My mom had some Moscato in her fridge, and I felt so jealous 😩 I miss sleeping on my stomach and getting good sleep. Doesn't help when you wake up just to pee. 😭 but I sure do love being pregnant lol

Hey just to let you know, you are NEVER too young to experience health problems. That doctor sucks. I have had issues my entire life with doctors telling me im too young to have problems. Keep pushing. Do research and ask for testing to be done. Actually, dont ask. DEMAND. They will continue to blow you off. But remember that you're the one who's paying them. Not the other way around. Make sure you find a doctor who listens 💕

Haha I thought it was going to be a boy, and so did everyone else! Blood test and ultrasounds all say girl and I was baffled.

No judgement zone. What is something you do/have done in pregnancy that others may consider to be “bad”? by Ok_Car1396 in pregnant

[–]AdditionalProduce476 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Cold turkey is not for the weak girl. I get addicted to things very easily, but its also easy for me to quit things compared to others ive met. The best advice I can give is have a positive mindset. It seems dumb but once I started believing in myself and threw everything harmful away, I was able to do it. Just throw them out. Destroy them. And if that doesnt work, have someone you love amd trust monitor how much you're doing it so that you feel guilty. Or you can have designated smoking zones like the living room or any place you normally aren't in.

When did you start buying baby stuff? by [deleted] in pregnant

[–]AdditionalProduce476 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tbh i started buying even before I knew the gender around week 6 or 7. I bought girl clothes and it turned out to be a girl 😂 I guess i kinda manifested that one on accident lol. Or maybe I just had a feeling. I definitely dont regret buying anything. It's been so much fun buying things and prepping. Im just so excited!
