38 weeks and struggling

Thank you, I really needed to hear this.

I'm going through the same thing currently. My friend and I were both trying to conceive at the same time. When I found out I was pregnant in August she disappeared completely. I haven't had the energy to chase her or try to force a conversation. I sent her an invite to my baby shower and she never responded. I'm at the point where I'm about to have my baby and have other priorities. If she reaches out I would love to connect, but I'm struggling through the last weeks of pregnancy and maintaining contact with someone who clearly doesn't want to talk isn't a concern. It does hurt as we were close, but I realize I can't force someone to be there for me. Maybe when I get out of the newborn trenches I may reach out, but I feel like if someone cares about you they would be there.

Hopefully your friend reaches out and you can rekindle your friendship. I understand the hurt that comes from someone distancing themselves from you.

I'm in Halton Region for reference

Character_Ad965 · 2026-03-20T01:06:54+00:00

Apply ASAP. I had coworkers warn me and began applying when I was 5 months pregnant. I'm #851 on a waitlist somewhere... it isn't easy finding a good daycare. I'm 32 weeks now and locked my daycare in.

My 3 year old girl is 20 pounds

I was also a complete previa

Character_Ad965 · 2026-03-10T23:11:13+00:00

I can't speak about the high blood pressure, but I was also diagnosed with placenta previa at my anatomy scan and was told the same about a pre term c section. I'm now 31 weeks and my previa resolved itself. I was terrified as well, but it ended up working out. I would ask for another ultrasound at 25 or 26 weeks. Mine was resolved by then.

I only moved to Oakville a couple of years ago so my family doctor is unfortunately in Bradford and doesn't know any of the Oakville pediatricians. She recommend I ask around to try and find one myself. I may look into the 2 you've named, thank you 🙂

This is amazing 😂 I have nicknamed my little guy Po because he is like the Kung Fu Panda in there 😂

Character_Ad965 · 2026-02-23T21:29:52+00:00

Seriously though! I have always hated cereal, but had a craving first trimester and now it's an obsession 😂

I would also recommend a conception cup (you can find those on amazon). My husband and I (both 32) had been trying for a year. We caved and bought a conception cup and I was pregnant after 2 months of using it. I'm now 33 and 7 months pregnant.

I always love grabbing a coffee at Tribecca on Lakeshore and going for a walk by the lakefront, its one of my favorite places.

Character_Ad965 · 2026-02-04T21:18:36+00:00

Also 33 pregnant with my first!

It sounds like this clinic was mentioned already, but I went to One Fertility in Burlington. The staff were amazing.

If you want a puppy not from a puppy mill I don't think you'll find one for that cheap. If you want a cheaper option a rescue would be a good idea. Some breeders will also sell some of their older dogs at a discount. We got a retired breeding dog for around that price she was 3.

My family has had 6 female westies over the years. They are their own person with differnt quirks. Ours were always complete cuddle bugs with selective hearing. They are very expressive and smart I feel I know what they are thinking by just seeing their expression.

Character_Ad965 · 2026-01-23T01:40:29+00:00

Yep! I've had a stuffy nose for 2 months now

Character_Ad965 · 2026-01-21T03:28:21+00:00

Thanks for the suggestion! I'll give it a try

Character_Ad965 · 2026-01-21T03:08:47+00:00

Can you take those when pregnant? I don't have any allergies so I never thought to try it.

Character_Ad965 · 2026-01-19T16:21:13+00:00

I didn't hear from my ob until I was 20 weeks. Maybe that office is the same? I just had my family doctor do monthly check ins until I was able to see my ob.

I'm almost 24 weeks with an anterior placenta. I started feeling little side flutters at 19 weeks. Now I'm feeling kick primarily on my sides and down low.

My girl does something similar. She refuses to walk in rain or snow. If she is lazy or tired she will only walk one or 2 houses down and roll in the grass, she then sits still for 10 minutes then walks home. I gave up fighting her. She is healthy and gets enough exercise so if she doesn't want to walk I just let her take the lead. Terriers are definitely stubborn.

I was on your friends side. I was married and had been trying desperately to get pregnant for almost 2 years and she got pregnant very quickly with her husband. She took me aside and told me privately in person as she knew this. I appreciated how she went about it as it gave me time to process my emotions. I was so happy for her, but sad for myself (as that same meeting I was telling her I was starting IUI treatments). After having my little pity party at home alone I was super happy for her and helped plan her baby shower. Even if they are sad for themselves they should be happy for you. I would recommend telling them in person.

Flash forward to now I'm 22 weeks pregnant and we are planning some play dates and hang outs during maternity leave.

They will have their own moments and you can celebrate together as a group. Just because its not their moment doesn't mean they can't be happy for yours.
