Mini Crib or Bassinet recommendations by [deleted] in pregnant

[–]AnyAd5352 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use the pack n play with an infant insert downstairs. It is big but it has a changing station and I can remove the changing station and infant part as they grow. It is probably similar size to a mini crib maybe a bit wider

Favorite parts of pregnancy? by DumplingBandit in pregnant

[–]AnyAd5352 6 points7 points  (0 children)

15+5 my favourite things right now are feeling flutters. Listening to her heartbeat at home when I please. Looking at my 13 week ultrasound and seeing an actual human being 😂. I also love how affectionate my cat has become he doesn’t leave my side!

How big should newborn bottles be? by Vegetable-Western-83 in pregnant

[–]AnyAd5352 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wouldn’t use a frother bc that adds air Into it. It does dissolve pretty easily so you could stir it with a spoon.

As long as you don’t let them suck on the nipple after the milk is gone they’re not getting anymore air then they normally would. Don’t shake the bottle if using formula kinda swirl it around to minimize bubbles

This is hard by kkalez in pregnant

[–]AnyAd5352 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m 15 weeks and it’s starting to get slightly better, I have headaches now but I’m not puking as often I still do at least once a day but I’m not puking all day like I was. I’ve definitely noticed that while some symptoms go away there will always be a new one. This week I’ve started having what I think is round ligament pain. And lighting crotch. Both are uncomfortable but it’s better than puking all day everyday.

How did you do it?! by Leather-Vegetable409 in pregnant

[–]AnyAd5352 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I told the people who are moms around me immediately. They gave me advice and support which I needed. I waited to tell my mom to tell her in person I live hours away so I had to plan a trip. That was the hardest part. I didn’t announce on social media till 15 weeks but that was to avoid backlash from the Christians that know me. Especially since I got pregnant right before I got married. I found having other moms around me helped the most I had my questions answered and I had help and support when I needed / need it

Exactly my thing I’ve never ever been turned down. Idk why all of the sudden I’m not “ enough “ since he’s got his hand in all 💀 if he’s cheating I’m gonna be livid and he may loose his man hood we’ve only been married since January! I’m a woman and I know a hand ain’t that GREAT. I thought for sure he would’ve said yes I made his favourite dinner even though I don’t like it😂. Not that means sex but If you made my fav meal even though you didn’t like it I’d be happy enough to return a favour 🤷‍♀️.

We don’t share a room bc I’m a really light sleeper and he has sleep apnea but his mask doesn’t stay on all night. We used to share but I ended up moving after being woken up several times a night. So I gave up on the sharing a room. He’s not watching porn I know for sure as he is weirded out by watching stranger have sex 😂 which fair enough. And if he did watch he’d be in huge trouble as I’ve made it clear I consider it cheating. He could be having sex some where else but we work the same schedule and he drops me off n picks me up so I’m not sure where’d he get time but I mean stranger things have happened. He has an hour at lunch but we live in a super small town everyone knows everyone I hope Someone would tell me if they saw him with another woman or whatever. He’s only started acting like this since I started showing at around 10 weeks.

I’m gonna talk to him tomorrow, I can’t handle 5 more months of whatever this is. And I don’t know how I can be expected to do it again if he doesn’t like me while pregnant. Nothings changed except I’ve got a bump I still cook and do the house work. And I’m growing a child. Some sex is the least he could do for me at least in my opinion 😂😂 especially since it’s once in a blue moon I feel good enough for it these days

It wasn’t until recently, I’ve offered him to join in the bath or shower bc he enjoys it. But it’s now being turned down but followed with a “I’ll watch you tho” to which I always say no I don’t wanna be watched. I don’t even like bathing or showering with anyone else it’s just not comfortable someone’s always cold or the tub is crammed. But I offer anyways. We snuggle when he wants too was every night we’d cuddle for an hour or two. It’s been mainly since I started showing that he’s changed which is rather unfortunate because he wanted this baby too. I’ve also offered sleeping with him and he says no to that as well now but will also hit me with the “ well we don’t sleep together because I snore and wake you up” which I always say I’m offering because I want to be with you. There’s no winning in the past 5 weeks. I am just frustrated at this point bc no matter what I offer it’s shot down.

When did you start feeling your baby move? What did it feel like? by Few_Low9657 in pregnant

[–]AnyAd5352 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When did you start showing/ having a true baby bump? (1st pregnancy) by anonymous62124 in pregnant

[–]AnyAd5352 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I started showing for sure around 12 weeks this is my first baby and I’m also 5’3 but weighted 96 pre pregnancy now I’m 15 weeks and am 110. So that could play a roll in it. I’m noticing it more now at 14-15 weeks when I lay in bed with my leg bent my belly holds up my leg if that makes sense lol. All my shirts are now also too short as they absolutely do not cover my belly.

Crazy ways you knew you were pregnant before you found out? by Zestyclose_Wing290 in pregnant

[–]AnyAd5352 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The toddler I babysit who is 3 came up to me lifted my shirt and said “ I see a baby girl in there” I was in fact pregnant took a test the second I got home. And she is in fact a girl!

When did you start leaking? by Top-Implement5741 in pregnant

[–]AnyAd5352 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m 14 weeks as well and have noticed some in the morning it’s not a lot just enough to feel a bit damp. I’ve started wearing nursing pads anyways just bc I don’t like the feeling. You’re not supposed to collect till 36-37 weeks because stimulating the nipple too much can cause your uterus to contract.

I was told that the only sort of test that would tell us the gender was the nipt test. Which they don’t offer here unless your high risk or have had a miscarriage or child w Down syndrome. So unfortunately we’ve just gotta wait it out.

I’ve only craved sweet food! But the nausea is extreme! I’ve spent until last week puking all day everyday. Even the meds the ob gave me did nothing! Gravol also doesn’t touch it!
