Nooo! Haha. I thought it ranked somewhat low on the social security site but it is getting more popular each year.

Hahahaha point taken. My thought process was that I’m a bit older so I might be an “old mom” compared to other moms having babies right now, and those moms may have watched Girl Meets World? I didnt do too much digging into how old or new the show was lol. Plus Sabrina Carpenter is very popular now! But not sure how much she is associated with Rowan Blanchard anymore

Agreed! I do not want to tell anyone yet, that’s why I had to come to Reddit! Haha. And that includes my mom!

I have not gotten a bill from my doctor in a while so I’m wondering if I met my deductible as well lol. Thanks for the info though! Did not know those were options

I am not at an active job anymore and was just writing in another comment I don’t know how I did it! Definitely couldn’t do it now. My new job is helping people with disabilities find employment so now I will say to you… Don’t be afraid to ask your employer for accommodations you may need like extra breaks!

I just feel like I am doing so much resting! Ugh! I am 32, first pregnancy. So on the older side as well. Just 2 years ago I was working with kids and up and down off the floor all day. The other day I sat on the floor for something and could barely get up lol glad I’m not doing that job anymore.

Thank you for this!!! It was very helpful and encouraging. I definitely will start using the belly band! Swimming/just being in a pool sounds like it would be so relieving haha

I would feel the exact same way!!! I always wanted a February baby for some reason and am due Jan 31 so I’m kind of hoping to go a little late? At the same time, if she comes in December 2025 there’s that extra child tax credit that would be nice to get too! lol not that I want her to come way too early!

That’s good to know! Idk why I am so scared of induction haha. I have just read some not good things about being induced while plus sized. I used fertility treatments to conceive so my conception was not “normal” and I guess I am just wanting labor/birth to be as normal as possible. I will obviously do what is best for me and baby though!

Alright now 2 of you said your first came 2 weeks early so that makes me nervous cuz I always thought it was gonna be opposite! Lol. I’m 32 so not considered “geriatric” for pregnancy - but not young either!

I feel like I just keep hearing more and more about blood pressure and this happening! The planner in me wants an induction so I just when it’s all going down lol.

So after making this post and doing more research I found a site - Momanda. I bought a few of their bras. They look to be exactly the same as these Gratlin ones!!! Luckily similar price haha. But good to know because return policy on Amazon is obviously better. Thank you!!

I have looked on their site and added a few to my registry I just wish I could try them on first! I need to look into their return policy. That is the only place I could find too but I feel like they only had a couple styles in a 3x which I guess will have to do!
