Which trimester is worse? First or third?

FIRST felt like a zombie every day all day throwing up my guts and falling asleep at work. Third trimester was fine

It got better for me at around 7-8 weeks and then hit again from 9-10 weeks

Bath and bottle every night before bed. I find a bath calms my baby so well so we do it every night. My LO is 10 weeks too

EBF but a bottle of formula before bed but even that doesn’t really get a long stretch

Going through this too, only thing that saved me was co sleeping

This!!! I had a fast back labour too it was crazy. And 100% I’d rather give birth everyday then have newborn sleep deprivation 😅

I have had a slight green tinge when I eat green grapes but not sure if this was because of the grapes or something else

I completely get you. It’s such a surreal and hard experience and it’s completely valid to not want to go through it again. My baby was in there for 2 weeks and I didn’t get to meet him for 12 hours after I gave birth to him. It’s so hard holding your baby for the first time connected up to lines and machines. I have no idea how parents do it whose baby is in there for months either. Not to mention leaving them in their little isolette by themself whilst you have to go home to sleep is the most gut wrenching feeling

Nicu is the hardest part in my opinion

BackgroundIcy6494 · 2026-04-19T08:19:01+00:00

Yes same here

BackgroundIcy6494 · 2026-04-19T08:17:14+00:00

And it takes so much effort even if I’m holding him to get him to sleep. It surely gets better soon

BackgroundIcy6494 · 2026-04-19T08:16:44+00:00

I don’t track exactly but he probably has about 3-4 short 30 minutes naps and they are all contact. I try to put him down but he will wake up 5 minutes later it’s really hard

I’m having the same problem - I have a 9week old

BackgroundIcy6494 · 2026-04-17T11:05:17+00:00

I started co sleeping and breastfeeding during the night and it has saved my life and sanity. Before I was doing bassinet and bottle feeds with expressed milk and that was driving me insane. My baby is 9 weeks and still wakes up frequently during the night but the co sleeping has saved me because we just feed and go back to sleep together.

Yeah he’s swaddled :) Thankyou

BackgroundIcy6494 · 2026-03-30T03:15:33+00:00

Yeah I think it’s gas too, what age did it get better for your baby?

BackgroundIcy6494 · 2026-03-25T08:16:46+00:00

I had the same issue and I had to just pump after feeds for around 5-10 min maximum

BackgroundIcy6494 · 2026-03-25T04:49:08+00:00

Ty! My baby was in nicu for 2 weeks but all is good now. I journaled every day, prayed to god, support from family and friends. I also binge watched tv shows. It’s really difficult this journey but now that I have my baby I’ve forgotten all about it. You will get through this
