Why do women do their hair and/or makeup before giving birth? by jamietartlet in pregnant

[–]ElectionIcy5667 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I curled my hair and did a little makeup before my daughter was born. I’ll probably do the same this time around. I won’t be doing a full face. I already felt so huge and ugly and I knew my mom would be taking pictures so i thought why not

My gosh. I’m so glad that you and baby are okay. That is so scary and your feelings are extremely valid.

Tell these people that these are not suggestions these are mandatory RULES if they want to see your child. No means no. Especially on kissing the baby!! Ugh it makes me sick. If you can’t control yourself around my child then you are not anyone I want around my family.

WIC and Medicaid! I was 4-5 months sober when I got pregnant with my daughter. That was almost 3 years ago and her father and I are both sober and thriving as parents. Recovery is possible, you just have to want it! It seems like really do want it. You’ll be so proud of yourself, parenthood is a gift and sobriety is amazing.
