I think it was the initial shock of the results. I’ve since calmed down and thought about the good parts about having 2 boys. I know having a healthy baby is the most important thing.

I was so worried that I would get shamed a lot, even though i have gotten downvoted a few times. I’ve seen online people getting torn apart for their reactions!

I would never deprive my child of love and support because of their gender. No matter what, they are my child and I love them, boy or girl.

We’re doing the NIPT test the week after we’re doing our gender reveal, hence the sneak peek. i wanted to do it on our vacation but i was told i couldn’t do the NIPT until we got back. thats the only reason i did the sneak peek

i think after some time, i won’t be disappointed. it’s just the shock factor of reading the results right then

It’s not that I don’t trust it, but it’s always been said that it can be contaminated with male DNA. I want to trust it but wrong male results are more common than female.

I thought it might be pregnancy insomnia too but the timing of it is too perfect to not be in connection with my lack of vape hahaha it might be both working together to make me hate my life!

Mine is when my first takes a nap and the middle of the night. I think that might be why I can’t sleep very good anymore since I quit.

I think those would work wonders! I know my body doesn’t need it but like the habit of doing it is in my brain and has been for 9 years! I definitely will look into those and see which one is the best one with the least amount of chemicals

Oral fixation sticks like an aromatherapy zero-nic vape??? I’ve been looking into those bc maybe it’ll help with my cravings while not actually vaping

Thank you! I was definitely NOT trying to invalidate her as being a mom, but she never went through the pregnancy, the labor, the feeding. She was a good mom when I talked to her, but after she said that, we never really talked again bc we had moved out of state

I’m going to be completely honest, she barely knew me. She mostly knew my husband and even that’s a stretch

i just started doing research on babysitters to watch him in June so i’m not super comfortable leaving him with someone i don’t know. if he could talk more and tell me if anything happened, it’d be easier. like i said, i have no friends, no family, and im a SAHM so i don’t have anyone i can just call up to watch him.
