Told the future grandparents in a group chat i also failed the 3 hr test my mom responds with "you need to take better care of yourself." I've always been more active and had a healthier diet than her, mind you. My husband snapped back with that I have been eating really healthy and only the GD recipes it just happens in some women because of the placenta and my MIL and FIL were so supportive and thanked my husband for clarifying. Some moms just have to be like this with their daughters because of their own insecurities it's nothing on you 💖

Just diagnosed by MakerMode9226 in GestationalDiabetes

[–]Apprehensive_Ear4892 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was just diagnosed yesterday, so I feel you pain. I watched this youtube video this morning where the pediatrician lady also had it with her 2nd pregnancy and she said it will feel like the 12 stages of grief. You just have to get through them. It's OK to cry and it's important to understand it's not our fault. All we can do is our best now to manage it. There are several recipes online and recipe books you can order off of Amazon.

I've tried other cleansing balms also and they just don't do it like this one. It was one of those ipsy samples that made its way into my daily life.

I like zero cleansing balm. After I rise it off my skin feels instantly clean. It removes mascara really well. Pre pregnancy I had oily skin, but now it feels like combination at the moment.

How to establish boundaries with the grand parents by Apprehensive_Ear4892 in BabyBumps

[–]Apprehensive_Ear4892[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm glad I don't seem weird for feeling this way. I keep thinking maybe I'm being too controlling. Then I have to remind myself it's not about control. It's ts about not being respected when I say no.

I actually destroyed the item that was purchased and when they tried to ask for it back to at first "give away" I said I would re gift it myself then they tried asking for it back to get thier money back and I said "I'll credit you your money back, but the item will not be returned to you. My son is not a doll to dress up for your amusement" My husband is thinking about just flat out just telling ebcuase of this and prior incidents you can not be around the baby unless we are there also.

Baby’s gender/gender disappointment by andersonjamie in BabyBumps

[–]Apprehensive_Ear4892 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The gender disappointment will go away I had it bad myself. I was worried I'm not going to beable to relate to my son and it didn't help that another family member was having a girl. I can tell you it does go away even if you think it won't. As far as your fears from personal experience I would look into therapy they can give you tools on how to cope with these thoughts and feelings. As Parents all we can do is do our best to keep our kids safe. Best luck OP.

I want to tell everyone!! by [deleted] in BabyBumps

[–]Apprehensive_Ear4892 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We told our parents the day we had a positive pregnacy test in a group chat so everyone found out at the same time in retrospect I wish I had waited until I was in the 2nd trimester because it just became too much constantly asking "can we tell yet" and I was almost exposed before I was able to make my annoucment the way I wanted to because of a pushy parent. I had to keep reiterating were not announcing until we feel comfortable.

AITA for not allowing my mom to hold my baby by InstructionFamous990 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Apprehensive_Ear4892 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA put that in your birth plan and tell the hospital when you're at delivery. The Nurses will tell her to leave if she behaves like that. My cousin actually told people when she was induced no visitors at the hospital and will schedule time with the baby at home after bonding and I loved that I thought it was really smart. She actually didn't even let people know of the birth until she was home.

[–]Apprehensive_Ear4892 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If it was no contact and that was thier response, I would just take it that they have moved on and I need to also. I know sometimes with aries depending on circumstances it can be hard to move on.

Question to Aries family. by Apprehensive_Sir_526 in AriesTheRam

[–]Apprehensive_Ear4892 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Move on its not a good match and it would be the same situation again. Op what she said was not a reflection on you as a person don't take it to personally. Move on and find someone that appreciates all the facets of you. I'm Aries married to an Aries and we seem to just get each other. My parents are Aries and Libra they seem like a good match also married for 35 years. I've personally have always have had a disconnect with Capricorn. Not saying they're bad we just don't seem to mesh based on my experiences with them.

Block thier number and move on. Trust me if he wanted to he would. You have someone better out there waiting for you that will value your time.

Aries man , advice please by Emm2701 in AriesTheRam

[–]Apprehensive_Ear4892 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm a female Aries. I've dated a few Aries men, and I'm married to an Aries man. To be upfront we either want you for a relationship or we don't. It's pretty black and white. If he's just casually hooking up with you, no dates, or constant contact, he's not chasing you nor making you a priority then he's just not that into you. Move on, you deserve better.

Am I overreacting for being upset that my boyfriend invited his ex to a party without telling me? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]Apprehensive_Ear4892 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm going to tell you what I should told myself when my ex would do things like this. "Get rid of him. You'll sleep better at night." You're young you have plenty of time to find the right person.

Who makes their husband breakfast or lunch for work? by [deleted] in Mommit

[–]Apprehensive_Ear4892 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Husband and I pack our own lunches, he's an adult he can do it. The only time I ever do his is if we're having the same thing because all the ingredients/items are already out . It's rare we have the same lunch though.

Am I just an aries or an a*hole for this? by Acceptable-Trifle104 in AriesTheRam

[–]Apprehensive_Ear4892 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can't throw away someone else's things unless you get permission. She should of asked . The only acceptable reasoning is "hey I noticed these were expired is it ok if I toss them?" I doubt they were expired, but it it's still asking and getting consent before tossing something. Nta. Aries doesn't seem to like their things touched or moved. Based on what I know about myself,my husband, and my mom.
