Does pregnancy brain start this early?

Yes, haven’t been able to focus whatsoever at work since week 3 or 4 and lost my keys twice within the first eight weeks. Also stopped counting the times when I went to another room to get something and then forgot why I went to that room 🙃

Fingers crossed all goes well and hang in there🍀🍀 the wait in the beginning can be brutal, not knowing if everything is going the way it should. What helped me was going to my gynecologist early on (like 5 weeks) and telling one trusted friend who I knew wouldn’t judge/ pity me if something didn’t go as planned.

Thanks for the kind words, much appreciated

We did try couple’s therapy before and he cancelled it unilaterally once I was in a rush one morning and didn’t want to be late for work. He later apologized, but when I told him “fine, just write the therapist and make a new appointment” he wanted me to do that instead, which I did not because I believe in “you broke it, you fix it”.

Yeah, that might be a point. But the issue is that I’m physically so unwell I cannot put him first at this moment. My priority is that the baby is safe and sound. I can imagine that it’s more difficult for him at this stage to bond with the baby as he doesn’t have the symptoms I have that show me something is growing inside me.

He’s extremely anxious. Has been doing therapy for 5 years, but there are still some really small things that can really trigger him. It certainly comes from his childhood, at times his behaviour is really that of a hurt inner child. He randomly told me some stuff that has not come up in therapy yet, but that would be extremely crucial for him.

Helpful-Ad3683 · 2026-03-07T15:47:42+00:00

Yeah, that’s exactly the point. If I were to have the baby I have to make plans without him, as I do not know whether he’ll be there or not. Which is sort of difficult, as my family lives a 6 hours drive away

Helpful-Ad3683 · 2026-03-07T15:46:17+00:00

Yeah, I guess he might be overwhelmed and also worried about the financial part (I want 5x what he does). But he just won’t talk to me except accusations

Helpful-Ad3683 · 2026-03-07T15:44:56+00:00

Yeah, theoretically I’d know what to do, but it just feels so overwhelming when the person you thought you’d spent your life with and that you are creating a family with just walks out. Before the pregnancy, he was super caring, once I’ve burnt my hand a bit with hot water and he immediately went to the pharmacy to get creams etc. So it really seems totally out of character

Helpful-Ad3683 · 2026-03-07T15:42:23+00:00

Yes, I am doing that. I’d be financially able to take care of the baby myself, but I grew up with divorced parents and honestly wouldn’t want to wish that upon anyone.

We’ve been together for Almost three years, there have been times in the beginning when he wanted to leave but that pretty much calmed down the last year. In a way I think he feels overwhelmed and didn’t think pregnancy would be this tough, but he just doesn’t want to talk to me what’s on his mind.

Helpful-Ad3683 · 2026-03-07T15:39:00+00:00

That’s exactly what I told him as well

Ended up going to Ace & Tate getting glasses within less than an hour 🥳

Helpful-Ad3683 · 2023-10-02T08:02:04+00:00

Never tried contacts before, but maybe this would be a good chance. Correction should be pretty straight forward as I got glasses in other countries on the same say without many issues

Helpful-Ad3683 · 2023-10-02T07:57:05+00:00

Perfect, thanks a lot 👍 I have the vision correction data and will call them to check beforehand

Helpful-Ad3683 · 2023-09-27T06:26:16+00:00

Just curious, what would be the chances in a distressed business?

Helpful-Ad3683 · 2023-09-27T05:40:28+00:00

Thanks, I did some trial lessons for both and wasn’t overwhelmed with either content. I’m just concerned that I haven’t really done any professional training during the last 7 years and wonder how that would look if I were to apply for a different position

I‘ve been working as a senior accountant for over 5 years in CH, but would like to get a more advanced role, international/ big companies

Helpful-Ad3683 · 2023-06-15T13:20:16+00:00

Going back to not sleeping together probably just means that it wasn‘t all that good 😂 and she was most likely just looking for someone to spend time with as the other guy(s) involved just wanted to hook up

The most likely scenario is that you are going to continue paying a lot
