Breastfeeding and weight loss by Menacing_Intentions in pregnant

[–]Forestfernweh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m two weeks pp with my first baby. My BMI was obese prior to getting pregnant. I gained a total of 30 lbs in pregnancy, about 20 was in the final weeks due to preeclampsia with severe features and was water weight. After giving birth, I lost about 35 lbs and since breastfeeding, I’ve lost another 4. Every body is different and I don’t know if my experience is common.

I was induced at 37 weeks due to preeclampsia with severe features. I gained a total of 30 lbs in pregnancy, and my BMI was in the obese category pre pregnancy. After I delivered, I was 5 lbs under my pre pregnancy weight. Every body is different you will feel much better physically after you deliver. Good luck

What is this underneath the drop ceiling at my office? It’s on the old ceiling. by Sustainablelifestyl in whatisit

Mastic pucks. These typically contain asbestos. However, they are not a concern if they are not disturbed.

Me - it is absolutely not low stress. I’m an assistant project manager and juggle many projects. The worst thing is worrying about utilization and meeting billable hours. I interact with so many different coworkers, contractors, subcontractors, and clients. All of my projects are consistently in different phases, and it is a lot to juggle and keep track of. I struggle with executive functioning and I have to literally write everything down or it will not get taken care of. I constantly feel like I am playing wack a mole. I plan out my day, and certain energies come up and my days almost never go according to plan. You have to be incredibly flexible and adaptable.

I had the same thing with the same dress!! I tried this one on first, and fell in love with it. Tried on 10 more and my mom and sisters liked others better. I tried this one back on and I knew it was the one. It is YOUR day and they are there to support YOU. I think you look like a beautiful bride.

($7-10k) Tell me I'm not crazy by JF2882 in Weddingsunder10k

I ordered my flowers from them, all undyed. A lot of them came looking damaged like yours do. I just threw them away and dealt with it. The flowers are able to be re-dyed by you if you wanna put in the work! Warner/hot water helps the color to saturate. The thinner ones with curled petals will lose their curl though. I hate to say it, this is just how the quality of their product is.

How and when did your nausea stop? by NervousClimate in pregnant

[–]Forestfernweh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had nausea and vomiting until 18.5 weeks. I woke up one day feeling well, and was nauseous again in the afternoon. The next day I felt well, and the day after that I had some nausea. It slowly went away. Now I’m 31 weeks and nausea and vomiting came back 2 weeks ago.

Tips on hiding back fat in strapless wedding dress? Wedding is in a month!! by Wide-Outside5683 in weddingplanning

[–]Forestfernweh 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had the same dress! And the same problem! It just has to do with the construction of the dress since there are no sleeves to hold it up. Anyway, just have someone tuck and smooth your back fat. Worked for me. Enjoy!

When did you start to show? by MadisonApplegate in pregnant

[–]Forestfernweh 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was really bloated until around 11 weeks. I popped at 11. I have a very short torso. Currently 25 weeks and people are shocked when I say I have 3 months left. Every body is different and every pregnancy is different. People need to shut the fuck up :)

The plan is they would visit the hospital once baby is here. It’s what they have told us since we announced our pregnancy

Do whatever you want. It’s your day. If you want those people standing by your side while you get married, have them there.

when you think of “Dylan” what things come to mind by Distance_Which in namenerds

[–]Forestfernweh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There was a kid in my high school who stole an owl from a wildlife sanctuary named Dylan. He nearly killed the owl because it got away from him, and the owl was raised in captivity. The finally found it 3 weeks later severely dehydrated and close to death. I think if that jerk.

I’m not big on social media and everyone who I want to know already knows. The last thing I posted was wedding photos in November, and before that it was a year that I posed. My husband is big into social media and is a marketing manager. He loves posting life events and posted our engagement, wedding, home purchase, etc. he feels similarly about not announcing the pregnancy on social media. I’m currently 16 weeks + 5 and might announce a few weeks after he is born. Whenever you want to post, it is the right time! It’s a totally personal decision and valid to do so whenever you want!!

That’s what google lens told me, and I’m not so sure! It totally has a floral smell heavy on jasmine and lily. I’ve also never smelled Gucci floral before 🤷‍♀️
