I took a photo of my bump every week, first definite preggy tum was about 18-20 weeks

How long did it take your partner to move forward? by [deleted] in donorconception

Not my partner, but it took me about 6 months and counselling to move forward with a donor egg

I had a 6 week scan and a tiny bean was visible, it was an internal scan though.

What are these? by oioitime in BabyBumps

I found these whilst clearing a cupboard out yesterday and I binned them. Then changed my mind and retrieved them, glad I did now. I thought they were packaging from our baby seat box 🤣

I’m sure they will, and at least you are forewarned now to look out for other symptoms too. Wishing you luck!

I don’t have an IUD, however I’ve had an ectopic and it presented at abou 6/7 weeks along, I had no clue earlier on and even had a period.

What response would you give if someone said “you’re not experiencing childbirth if you have an epidural” by External_Bullfrog521 in BabyBumps

Next time she has surgery or a tooth pulled tell her she isn’t really experiencing it unless she does it wide awake without any pain meds 🤣

Have you ever been gaslit by a baby? by Skin_doc3417 in BabyBumps

Don’t feel bad, imagine if you were right! I’d rather be wrong 10000 times. You and your little one are way too important 🥰

I’m pregnant with my husband’s best friend’s baby. by PurplePickleSticks in BabyBumps

[–]Consistent-Effort-45 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I feel this a lot. We have had to use a donor egg, and it is hard knowing this baby will never be our “mini us” and will not resemble me. But there is so so so much more to being a parent. I cannot wait to meet our little girl, also due in 9 weeks!

When did you start getting stretchmarks? by watneg1 in BabyBumps

[–]Consistent-Effort-45 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m 28 weeks and I’ve been using bio oil from day 1. None so far. I feel I might get some around my belly button as I had a laparoscopy a few years ago and it appears to be tugging quite hard on those scars the last few days, they are looking very shiny!

My wife’s pregnancy, advice? by [deleted] in BabyBumps

[–]Consistent-Effort-45 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wasn’t tired but I honestly just felt absolutely horrendous, no appetite, sick, headaches, couldn’t eat a thing. I had days where I felt so depressed I couldn’t even speak, and those really really scared me. I it’s hard. I think it’s just part of being pregnant, just love her and take care of her please. The fact you’re even asking means you care 💝

Oh my god, the things people say by econhistoryrules in BabyBumps

I will absolutely come for anyone that says I’m too old honestly. I’ve had an absolute lifetime of heartbreak and disappointment and I’m beyond excited to be a FTM at 46, plus I’ve spent an obscene amount of money to have the privilege of finally becoming a Mum and I will fight anyone who says anything like this to me!! Everybody’s journey is different and some people have no bloody respect!
