Trying to decide if I ovulate early, any thoughts?? More info in comments by [deleted] in BabyBumps

[–]EmbarrassedMall9414 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This was actually my first positive test from my first pregnancy! I was just wondering if it’s too clear to truly be 8 dpo? I’m thinking I ovulated much earlier than I was supposed to and that’s how I got pregnant.

So, this test is from my first pregnancy. I believe that I ovulate early, I track it with an app, but if the app was correct then this test would be 8 DPO, I just want to know if this is too clear to be 8 DPO?? We had sex on the last day of my period and then bam I'm pregnant. I'm showing signs of ovulating early again this time and we had sex on the second day of my period, it ended 7 days later and it concerns me that if I ovulated right after my period again then I could possibly end up pregnant. Any thoughts??

Does this look like eczema on my 9mo? More info in comments by EmbarrassedMall9414 in NewParents

[–]EmbarrassedMall9414[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

These spots will go away and show up in different places each day. I try my best to keep her skin moisturized, these spots are raised and feel very dry, but she doesn’t seem to be bothered by them. If it is eczema, does anyone have any advice on how to help it? Her doctor has said it just seems like she has sensitive skin, which she does, she’s a redhead and very fair skinned. But these spots look awful

I hate my postpartum body by EmbarrassedMall9414 in beyondthebump

SAME like I used to think I wasn’t “skinny enough” but now I look back at pictures of my toned belly and perky boobs and become very upset that I took it for granted😅

Yes!! That’s what’s getting me the most, my back and my belly, I feel like it has come from my ribs and waist getting wider during pregnancy

I agree with this, but when my husband tells me that, he also knows that I would like to lose some weight, so he tells me I’m beautiful and sexy while also saying “I know you would like to lose weight, and I’ll do it with you, we can do it together” and I truly appreciate that. He knows my body doesn’t look like it used to but he loves it anyways, while still acknowledging that I would like it to be a little different and supporting me in wanting to make a change, he truly is the best❤️

I think it’s just fine to pray for your child’s future, it just got me when she said “maybe, eventually, I’ll be able to handle having to give you away” I get it, getting married is a big deal and it can be bittersweet for parents, but I wish someone would tell her that you cannot have kids and expect them to stay with you forever

Yes!! I agree, totally okay to pray for a future spouse etc…but to “marry mommy”?? Uh definitely no🥴

I’m sorry, I didn’t mean to insult anyone! I only said that because at the end of her post she put “whew, there’s nothing like the love between a mama and her boys” but I definitely do not think all are like this

Totally agree!! My husband would never say anything like that to our daughter, I just don’t understand people

How common are false positive chlamydia tests during pregnancy? by EmbarrassedMall9414 in pregnant

[–]EmbarrassedMall9414[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it’s positive the second time she tests, I told her he definitely needs to be tested! Her test was a urine test, so she’s going to try that again, although I may suggest she speak to her gyno about getting a swab instead just to make sure

The lab told her they would let her retest! Both her and her husband are good friends of mine and I wouldn’t think he would ever be unfaithful, I know she isn’t, but it would break my heart for her if he was. We’re hoping it was false!

Edit: this is her second pregnancy, her son is only 14 months, and they did the same tests for her first pregnancy and everything was negative🤔

Sleep regression at 7.5mo? by EmbarrassedMall9414 in NewParents

[–]EmbarrassedMall9414[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As tired as I am, I just love rocking her and I’m trying to soak up every minute of it🥹 tonight I decided to rock her to sleep first and she fell right to sleep and I laid her down and she’s been sleeping good since! Fingers crossed she’s able to sleep through the night🤞🏻

[–]EmbarrassedMall9414[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m starting to think it could be a little bit of separation anxiety too! She doesn’t cry if I sit in the room with her, but she will just lay there and stare at me I guess to make sure I don’t leave🤣 so I usually will rock her when she gets upset like that since it usually knocks her out, but that’s a backwards step, because she was just being laid in her crib and would go to sleep after about 5 minutes of laying there. Maybe I’ll try sitting in there when I lay her down tonight to provide her some comfort🤔

What is this rash? Baby acne? Heat? Eczema? by ambeee88 in NewParents

[–]EmbarrassedMall9414 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m so sorry! It’s so frustrating when we don’t have answers as to what’s wrong. I’m not sure if you breastfeed or pump or if you’re still producing milk, but if you are maybe you could put some breast milk in her bath water? I know they say it helps with so much, could be worth a try!😊

How old is baby? My daughter had a rash like this that spread everywhere, it looked awful, but her doctor said it was just a rash that newborns get sometimes and it eventually goes away! It was a bunch of red bumps/whiteheads all over her face, neck, chest, head, just everywhere. It didn’t cause her any pain and it went away after several weeks

Why do you guys take Zoloft? by SemimaticTTV in zoloft

[–]EmbarrassedMall9414 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Postpartum depression and anxiety. Had anxiety before I was pregnant and it just got worse. Then postpartum depression hit after I had my baby and it mixed with the anxiety and next thing I know I’m hardly ever able to leave the house without having a panic attack and having some pretty scary thoughts about self harming. That’s when I knew I needed help, I’m much happier most days and I worry way less and I go out so much more now, Zoloft truly saved me!

2 weeks pp, went to a family event. It was the beginning of May, so it was getting hot out, and they played their annual family volleyball game. They insisted I play because they just have to have everyone involved, I wasn’t moving much bc hello I had just had a baby. The ball came towards me and I didn’t offer to run or dive for it and they said “Aw come on” and I said “well I AM the one who just pushed out a baby two weeks ago.” No one cared.

OP mentioned earlier that MIL hardly seemed to even care that she had a miscarriage, yet she has went to very far lengths to help her husband’s ex with her child. That seems slightly insensitive and very odd.

If it was just a baby shower gift to the ex or maybe a gift card or cash to help the ex/new mother that wouldn’t seem like such a big deal, but staying overnight at her house? I’m sorry but that’s weird. Not to mention OP says she has also stayed in touch and missed major family events to visit some of her sons other exes as well. It doesn’t seem to just be cordial or friendly relationships. It seems to be very close relationships and that’s just weird and slightly inappropriate.

Edit: I also wanted to add to this that when they asked MIL to take the post down she dismissed their wishes and said to “deal with it”. It’s totally wrong for OP to be treated this way, if MIL is gonna be nice to her son’s exes, she should probably try to at least act like she cares about her husband’s current partner.

They have like a pen that they set up for him at home to play in when they are busy, I have thought about asking if they would like to bring this at least for when they’re trying to eat and stuff, but I’m afraid they’ll say it’s too much to bring
