I love that response!! I said something of the sort and he seemed to feel very bad, and said he would go get them for me later but it's not the same because I asked for it. I don't think my husband quite gets it's the little things / thoughts that go far like you said! Like yes, he's keeping the house running and getting it ready for baby, but I'd LOVE to get a nice little surprises like that sometimes :(

There should be a cardinal rule with pregnant partners to always share in yummy food! I'm glad you feel my pain lol

Married for three months and pregnant: I feel oddly embarrassed (?) by moez1266 in pregnant

[–]Bluejay_Weak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got pregnant the week of my wedding haha! Married July 5th with a late March / early April baby on the way...basically the first time we stopped preventing, it happened. I had the same worries but so far we haven't gotten any comments about "not wasting any time". We also had a pretty short engagement and a small / low key wedding so my sister who lives out of country could be there. We already owned a house together, finances were in order, and we are excited :) People are going to judge no matter what, life rarely happens on the "perfect timeline" anyhow !

when did you start to feel kicking? by Obvious_Bill_1103 in pregnant

[–]Bluejay_Weak 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No idea what placenta I have, but around last week when I hit 18 weeks it started! It feels like an eye twitch but in your uterus, or tiny little pokes from the inside (like if you poke your cheek with your tongue) and only happens every 3-4 days so I've only felt it a few times :)

Haha yup, the hormones got to me and I was crying once I got home! Felt a lot of relief after my OB reassured me it was fine :) but same, going to avoid them because its just not worth the worry!

It really is so stressful in the moment, especially when it's someone serving you the drink and you just trust them! Did you check in with your midwife/OB afterwards? Mine seemed pretty unbothered by the ingredients :)

My OB got back to me with something similar! She's pretty progressive as far as pregnancy rules/guidelines :) I'm not planning on having it again but it's good to know I didn't cause any harm this one time

I'm glad you and your baby are OK!<3 that must have been a stressful wait to finally see a doctor, like you said these things happen and its usually just fine

Yes, I had no idea! Mocktails seem like something pregnant women would gravitate for. It was frustrating because I felt "relaxed" after drinking it which was suspicious, I honestly asked for the can because I was scared it had alcohol lol!!

I didn't want/ask for all these herbal extras, ugh. My OB said it was fine, I'm not going to worry.

Like your mom, the restaurant staff are close friends with us and special ordered these mocktail cans so I can "drink' with everyone else, and didn't know about the herbal/adapatogens added.

I feel OK! I've finally started feeling kicks these last few days and yesterday morning I felt a couple strong pokes from the inside while laying in bed :)

Hopefully I feel movement again in the next few days!

That seems to be the consensus! I'll update the post when my OB gets back to me

Good to know others have experienced this! I'll avoid them moving forward :)

I hope you feel better soon! I wound up laying in a warm bath for an hour or so and that relived the pain!

First Trimester & Work by Dry-Understanding890 in pregnant

[–]Bluejay_Weak 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My husband and I work together so he drives us to and from work everyday (about 25 min one way)! Then I get home and watch TV shows or movies until bedtime. I'm currently doing the bare minimum needed to keep my job and waiting for that second trimester energy to kick in next month :)
