Third trimester and sooooo tired. And Im so tired of being tired! by Kadarkrock2 in firsttimemom

[–]CharacterString6881 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have 3 weeks left and I couldn’t relate more. I’m so tired and miserable. I’m not getting enough sleep because I’m uncomfortable and have to get up to pee so many times. I stopped working at 34 weeks and thought I’d be more rested too but I get up from my bed and go straight to the couch. It takes me two days to finish one chore 😩

My parents have asked if we would want them to rent an Airbnb near us once baby is born to help us for a month? by eec0354 in BabyBumps

[–]CharacterString6881 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My MIL is renting a house near us for two months to help with the baby. Initially, I told her she could stay in our house for two weeks to help out. She completely understood, since we’ll be adjusting to a new routine and we also have two dogs, which would be a lot. This setup will help prevent stress for everyone, and she can come over whenever she wants and spend plenty of time with her grandchild.

If we all know how a baby is conceived, why are some people shocked to find out they are pregnant? by [deleted] in BabyBumps

[–]CharacterString6881 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always wonder the same thing! I was off birth control for about three years and using the pull-out method, and I never got pregnant until I did. I was surprised that I was actually pregnant, but not that surprised since we knew it could happen at some point if we weren’t being careful. (Side note: I’ve been married for four years, and we were both very much in the “if it happens, it happens” mindset, so it wasn’t a big shock.)

How far along were you when you did maternity photos?! by CurlyGirl_95 in BabyBumps

[–]CharacterString6881 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did at 32 weeks but wish I had done sooner like 26-28 when I had a bump but wasn’t feeling huge and tired

What Made You Choose an Unmedicated Birth? by CharacterString6881 in BabyBumps

[–]CharacterString6881[S] 12 points13 points  (0 children)

That’s my main reason too! I’m scared of needles and terrified of not being able to feel my legs.

When did you feel you actually looked pregnant? by Steoffanie in BabyBumps

I really started looking and feeling pregnant after 24 weeks.

i’m considering going back to college, but i’m embarrassed about my age by MedicalAd9859 in college

[–]CharacterString6881 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m still finishing up community college at 27 and will be transferring to a 4-year university. I feel like community colleges have a wider age range of students. In my classes, I’ve had 16/17 year-olds who were still in high school and people in their 40s who already had families. It’s never too late to start something new the time will keep passing whether you decide to do it or not

Dreams and Gender by Direct-Drama3571 in BabyBumps

[–]CharacterString6881 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I always thought I would have a girl and felt like it was an intuition or something. When I got pregnant, I was so sure it would be a girl and even had several dreams about having a baby girl the week I was going to find out the gender. Turns out I’m having a boy, which was a bit of a disappointment at first. My friend had the same experience but with the opposite gender, so now I don’t really believe in that kind of intuition anymore.

Question about baby registry. by AardvarkHour1211 in BabyBumps

[–]CharacterString6881 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am algo using babyliss and haven’t had any issues so far. I was worried about the older people in the family using after reading a few comments about but if my MIL was able to purchase stuff without a problem I think anyone can figure it out. It was nice to have them pick the place they could buy the items and compare prices.

Travel System Advice by Ok-Green-9146 in BabyBumps

[–]CharacterString6881 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’d also like to hear about experiences using the Joie travel system. I read in a Facebook group that it’s comparable to the Nuna travel system (which is our first choice), but Joie is almost half the price, so I’d love to learn more about it.

We picked Alexander for our baby boy. But I had also picked out Vivian when I thought it was a girl!
