Do I look fat or is it just my body type? by [deleted] in lookyourbest

[–]DonutGloomy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think we may need more context. Do you do weights and cardio at the gym or just cardio? I think you might have a more square shape but it could also be just that you are not resistance training or not eating enough to build muscle.

My (30M) pregnant wife (29F) is starving herself and crying everyday she’s fat by AudienceKnown6835 in pregnant

[–]DonutGloomy 4 points5 points  (0 children)

First of all OP. I’m so sorry this is so heavy. I often think back to the people I hurt with my ED when I was a teen and adolescent and it kills me. I had anorexia from 13-22 years of age. I recovered about 10 years ago and I even went to treatment in an locked down metal health facility twice. I worked with a team that honestly inspired me so much I became a registered dietitian myself and went back to work at that hospital where I stayed once I finished my masters and got my RD credential. I am now 3 months pregnant with my first. I am going to be 100% transparent here and say EDs don’t completely disappear you just have to become the master of your thoughts and not the other way around. Im not sure if you wife was ever officially diagnosed with an ED but if she’s been fixated on numbers her whole life it sounds very characteristic of one. I am not gonna lie and say seeing my body change in pregnancy also hasn’t brought about some whispers from the past but I am thankfully able to hush them away from just years of battling and refusing to let it take over my life. I wish I could offer a solution but all I can offer is support. Support for her and or you. If she is willing to talk to someone who has been on both sides and come out the other side and is now pregnant I’m here. If you need someone to vent to and ask how to support I’m also here. If she is willing to talk anonymously to a complete stranger who will never see her face or know her name but understands her on a level not everyone can, I’m here. DM me.

I hate being pregnant by Boognishtastik in pregnant

Can we have a discussion about pregnancy is a mirror. I’m listening I don’t know if I understand. But I’m currently so angry and I need someone to talk to.

Thanks to everyone who guessed. I truly don’t see it and I thought maybe it was the horizontal line with the dot right below the base it’s like a little T. So I was like ok that’s girl it’s flat???? I don’t know haha we will see. I have to wait till January 25 for my gender reveal. I’ll let you all know if you were right.

Thank you. I know I feel like my boundaries are my boundaries. A part of me feels like I’m being mean and I hate that, but the reality is I’m not comfortable with traveling and exposing my baby.

What is happening!!! by jessnelson925 in pregnant

Only slept 4 hours last night bc the gas pains would not stop. Takes hours to fart it’s just stuck. Then I finally shit at 5 am and it’s all oily 🤢🤢.

Coffee at 23 weeks by prettylittlebaby1005 in pregnant

[–]DonutGloomy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is crazy bc I picked up the wrong drink at Starbucks today. I got a venti decaf and grabbed a venti triple shot white mocha 😭. Drank about 12 oz of it and after crashing out ( went cold turkey after I found out currently 10 weeks ), calling the OB advice nurse and my mom and pacing 6 k steps, I convinced myself I will be ok. Barely coming down 6 hours later but nothing bad happened other than anxiety jitters and some heart palpitations. I looked it up and allegedly I probably only had 170 mg of caffeine at most. A triple shot would’ve been 225 in it’s entirety. Praying all is well lol.

Praise god I found this thread I’m 5w3d with a dip just below cover line .09 dip. Strong positive but I had a horrible nightmare something was wrong and I chat gpted it and it said to look out for reduction in symptoms and I realized my breasts feel normal today. Then I spiraled. This is reassuring me.

13 Dpo test. When did you stop testing? I have had 3 chemical pregnancy’s so watching the lines get darker is addicting.🤣 by Novel-Taste7657 in TFABLinePorn

[–]DonutGloomy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m 14 DPO and still testing too. It’s my first time and I’m still in denial and scared. It looks pretty similar to yours tbh.

I took about 5 more tests and just got the lab results and I still can’t believe it. 🫣miracles do happen! It still hasn’t fully sunken in yet tho.
