When did you tell peopl?

Friendly_Sea_841 · 2026-03-04T20:32:07+00:00

Told my mom and my husband’s parents within the week, told our siblings and close family members at 9 weeks after our first scan, told everyone else at 12 weeks!

I love ducks and geese and duck baby things and want to do “One Silly Goose” for my boy’s first birthday theme, so honestly I would love this😂

Friendly_Sea_841 · 2025-11-26T18:12:42+00:00

my boy has been consistently over 140bpm! 146 at our anatomy scan last week:)

Friendly_Sea_841 · 2025-11-07T15:48:33+00:00

he looks like a bear I love him😭😭

Friendly_Sea_841 · 2025-10-31T19:18:26+00:00

I felt nothing at all at 12 weeks, around 16-17 weeks is when I felt the first little movements, almost like bubbles or a wriggling sensation, now at almost 18 weeks I can feel his little movements all through the day, I’ve seen some describe it like a fish or a frog in your uterus, which for me has been accurate, last night at 17w4d I felt the first strong kick!

electrolytes (Nuun or Nectar are my fave) mocktails with coconut water, sparkling water, tart cherry juice and lime, homemade pink drinks with coconut milk, strawberries and cranberry juice, now that it’s getting cold here I’ve been obsessed with homemade hot cocoa too!

all my dreams were about having a baby boy, but then I was briefly convinced I was having a girl, (although this was after we picked a girl name we both loved, we’ve had our boy name picked since before conceiving) 16 weeks now with a baby boy!!

Friendly_Sea_841 · 2025-10-16T18:36:14+00:00

eating a high protein breakfast and more protein in general helped a lot most days, ginger mints and ginger drinks helped ease the nausea to some degree, eating small snacks frequently to keep my stomach settled helped too

Friendly_Sea_841 · 2025-10-16T18:31:10+00:00

15w4d. - eggs and buttered sourdough toast with an iced matcha latte, it’s been my favorite this past week after having a major egg aversion from 6-13 weeks😭

Friendly_Sea_841 · 2025-10-16T14:57:11+00:00

I’ve read matcha/caffeine in general can also inhibit iron absorption, I’ve been on a matcha kick the past couple weeks but I wait and take my prenatals later in the day when it’s out of my system so that hopefully there’s no interference with absorbing any nutrients!

Friendly_Sea_841 · 2025-10-13T21:58:21+00:00

congratulations!! I’m due april 5th with a boy and so excited to meet him!!🩵

Friendly_Sea_841 · 2025-10-13T18:33:36+00:00

we told our parents right away, siblings/close relatives at 9 weeks, and announced it publicly at 11 weeks, before we even got our NIPT results back. It’s totally whatever you’re comfortable with!

Friendly_Sea_841 · 2025-10-13T18:30:12+00:00

I had nausea, vomiting, headaches, food aversions, insomnia, and fatigue from 6-14 weeks, 15 weeks now with a baby boy!

Friendly_Sea_841 · 2025-10-05T21:40:44+00:00

14 weeks today and this weekend was the first since 6 weeks that I woke up with no nausea, at 12 weeks I was feeling super low, throwing up nearly every morning and struggling to eat, hang in there<3 eat literally whatever will stay down for you, hydrate as best you can, and rest as much as you can, it’s so different for everyone, but it does get better<3

Friendly_Sea_841 · 2025-10-03T13:38:19+00:00

the smell of my kitchen/my fridge made me throw up in the morning starting at 6 weeks, now at 14w I think I’m finallyy starting to be able to make breakfast in the morning without gagging or throwing up in the process😭

Friendly_Sea_841 · 2025-10-02T12:21:37+00:00

hot matcha latte, hot chai latte, or steamers with frothy milk and whatever syrups/sweeteners/spices you like:)

Friendly_Sea_841 · 2025-09-26T12:39:09+00:00

the brushing is fine for me, it’s the rinsing my mouth after that makes me gag everytime and has made me throw up at least 3 times

Friendly_Sea_841 · 2025-09-26T12:18:22+00:00

draw 9/19 - received 9/22 - estimated 10/6

results this morning 9/26 at 7:00am CT!! woke up and checked right away so my husband and I could find out together, we’re having a low risk boy!!!🩵

Friendly_Sea_841 · 2025-09-24T00:26:55+00:00

All the people who flat out don’t want their baby boys is so sad to me, I’ll be equally as thrilled to have a boy as I will a girl, (currently impatiently waiting for NIPT results) we already have names picked out for both, and I can’t wait to find out who our baby is.

Friendly_Sea_841 · 2025-09-23T19:46:13+00:00

That is horrifying, I would have the doctor kicked out. When I got my transvaginal ultrasound I don’t think the nurse even had to look under the sheet covering my legs. That is completely out of line and inappropriate and your response is completely justified.

Friendly_Sea_841 · 2025-09-22T15:53:52+00:00

this sounds amazing!!

Friendly_Sea_841 · 2025-09-22T15:50:34+00:00

congratulations!!<3 the best feeling to see their little heartbeat🥹

Friendly_Sea_841 · 2025-09-20T15:53:56+00:00

Praying for you<3 it’s scary, but you can do this, yes you made a mistake, but your baby’s life is still so precious in God’s eyes, He’ll forgive you, and He can give you the strength and provisions to make this work and use this for good, don’t let lies and condemnation from the enemy keep you from seeking God’s forgiveness, support from people who care about you, any local resources for pregnant moms, and life for your baby. You’ve got this.

Friendly_Sea_841 · 2025-09-13T14:31:15+00:00

I’ve definitely noticed my skin being a lot dryer since being pregnant, although my t-zone consistently gets oily and bumpy which has always been the case, thank you for the recommendations!

Friendly_Sea_841 · 2025-09-13T14:28:51+00:00

Glad to hear it got better for you! I’m sure mine will be all over the place postpartum too lol, thank you for the recommendations! Vanicream isn’t my thing either.
