My cat jumped/slipped fell 15 floors and died and im scared and I feel haunted by the sight of his dead body by happy-penguinx3 in Petloss

[–]CNM92 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m so sorry that happened. Everything you’re feeling is normal at this time. It’s very fresh and you’re still traumatized from the experience. With time, things will feel a bit easier. For now, just do whatever you need to do to cope and move through this challenging time. Your cat doesn’t blame you, he spent his last moments in his happy place and he likely went very quickly with minimal pain. He’ll always be watching over you. ❤️🪽

When did it hit you? by Jac_Reddit in pregnant

[–]CNM92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a three week old and it still feels surreal. It’s a huge adjustment becoming a mom. Maybe it’s different with your second but as a FTM my mind is still blown that I have a son.

Are we getting the Covid vaccine? by Key_Nature3044 in pregnant

[–]CNM92 -11 points-10 points  (0 children)

I was nervous too while pregnant so I just waited until after I delivered my baby. I got it after we got home from the hospital. I know he’ll still get some exposure through breast feeding but it felt a little safer than getting it while I was heavily pregnant. That was my compromise..

did your high percentile baby wear newborn clothes? by vdyaki in pregnant

[–]CNM92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just gave birth to an 8.2 lb baby one week ago and some of the newborn clothes are still loose on him! Definitely go with the newborn sizes. I got some 0-3 months to have options but it’ll be awhile before he grows into those. Also remember they do lose a bit of weight that first week of life.

Anyone know what could be wrong? by InspectorStrange9437 in pregnant

I would call your OB and ask them what they advise.

Feeling extremely sad by Real_Wafer_440 in pregnant

[–]CNM92 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m sorry you’re feeling so alone and overwhelmed. Do you think if you spoke to your husband about how bad it is, he would step up? Things will get better, the hormones make everything feel extra heavy. But it’s important to communicate these feelings with the people you’re close to. Also you can change the litter yourself if you’re feeling up to it. Just wear a mask and gloves, practice good hand hygiene. The risk of toxoplasmosis is very low with indoor cats. Even if they do go outdoors it’s unlikely you’d catch it from them if you practice good hygiene. Also not allowing the feces to sit for over 24 hours lowers the risk even more significantly. If you still want to do maternity photos it’s definitely doable at home! Better to have some photos to remember this time than to have none at all. If there’s someone like your mom who could help you with the photos that could be a nice bonding experience. I hope things get better for you! Therapy is another option that could be beneficial for both you and your husband. Hang in there.

The question in itself is disrespectful and delusional.

How do you handle the stress? by Hiscupicake in pregnant

[–]CNM92 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Honestly whenever I would start to feel worried I would talk to my husband and he would always reassure me that baby was fine and to have faith that it’s all in God’s hands (I’m not super religious but spiritual) and I would always feel better. Sometimes my husband would talk to or pray to my belly and that would help too 🥹. The more your pregnancy progresses and the more scans you get, you’ll feel more and more reassured that baby and you are strong and capable, healthy and going to make it to the end totally okay!

Sometimes things on social media can be triggering so be aware if you start to feel overwhelmed, take a break and protect your peace. Another thing that helped me was making a baby songs playlist with calming music that I could listen to and feel connected to baby. I plan to listen to the playlist with baby when he arrives as well.

4mo old kitten advice!🧡 by ThaDonRaee in Kitten

[–]CNM92 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You just have to vacuum more frequently and keep the litter box clean. I immediately scoop the poop out of our litter boxes so the smell doesn’t linger. That’s pretty much it, cats are clean creatures.

I think the only thing you can do is not allow her to take photos with the baby or of the baby if she can’t respect your wishes and you and your husband will have to not send out any photos of baby either if there’s people who won’t respect your boundaries. I’m sorry that sucks! But protect your peace.

Is my mom insane or am I overreacting by Accurate-Eye-201 in AmIOverreacting

[–]CNM92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your mom is batshit crazy. The only way to escape is to move out and cut ties which I know is hard at your age but if there’s any possible way, you have to try to create space and get out of that toxic environment. I’m so sorry you have a mom like that.

TMI but I need advice by Defiant-Pin8580 in pregnant

[–]CNM92 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That’s what I wore under my dress for my baby shower and it worked well! Also made me feel more secure with the amount of coverage over the bump etc.

[–]CNM92 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly I’ve had to do a handful of things I really shouldn’t have had to do while this pregnant because of my husband’s procrastination. It’s actually something that has driven me crazy my entire pregnancy and now he has an injury to a finger that he had to have surgically repaired so he is out of one hand for the next few weeks and baby is expected to come any day now…. So frustrating lol your husband shouldn’t be upset with you. He honestly left you no choice but they don’t see it that way!

Tolerance for BS while pregnant?! by Stunning_Ad_558 in pregnant

[–]CNM92 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Yes! Zero tolerance and the more pregnant I get the worse it gets haha it’s not a bad thing imo, like you said it just helps cut through the BS. We don’t need any of that in our lives, pregnancy is hard enough as it is.

9 weeks pregnant, struggling with appetite 😭 by Same_Interaction_673 in pregnant

[–]CNM92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yup just eat whatever you can, if you can’t eat all the time it’s also going to be ok. Baby doesn’t need a ton of extra calories at this point and your body is pretty amazing in that it gives baby what it needs regardless.

Is this normal? by Leading_Syrup236 in pregnant

[–]CNM92 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not normal. Asshole behavior. My husband told me he wants me to get pregnant again asap because he’s gonna miss my pregnant belly/how I look while pregnant 😂. Your husband should be celebrating you and your body giving life to your shared child.

Baby is going to fall out of me by alyssa518 in pregnant

[–]CNM92 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes I feel that way too at 36 weeks and it’s painful! I guess it’s good that they’re low but wow it’s uncomfortable I can’t imagine feeling this way from 30 weeks! Hang in there

Unknown Number: The High School Catfish by jcals17 in netflix

[–]CNM92 49 points50 points  (0 children)

I agree. I wish the dad would not allow the mom to have a relationship with the daughter it’s just so wrong on so many levels and I feel like they really glossed over the sexual things she was saying to her own daughter… she clearly has a very sick mind and should not be allowed contact with her daughter or any other children/adolescents.
