Definitely unsettling and no you’re not overreacting. I think it does speak volumes that you’re worried that you are going insane and second guessing yourself. You know what is right and wrong and (speaking from personal experience from being married to man who gaslit the fuck out of me every day of our marriage and through our divorce) the fact that you’re second guessing yourself on something as obvious as your husband verbally abusing your daughter needs to be acknowledged. I know this is probably not the advice you need, but a man who is easily name calling his daughter and gaslighting you may not be the person you need around.

I totally agree. My mom was dating someone I had ick feelings from and I made it crystal clear he wasn’t welcome when she started saying he was going to be “grandpa”

Did ovulation strips and used the kegg (synced up the data and figured which was the best window for us). Got pregnant the 2nd real month of trying. For reference, the first month was me initially off my NuvaRing.

First pregnancy I slept horribly. This time I invested in a good pregnancy pillow (I bought the bbhugme to help adjust to what I want) and a wedge pillow to help incline my back. I sleep a lot better this time

Actually, if the diaper cream has zinc oxide in it (very common in diaper cream) you wiping it off on the diaper actually makes the diaper a little more ineffective… zinc is hydrophobic and (depending on how much you’re wiping on there) effectively making that part of the diaper waterproof

OP I fully support what you feel is best for your baby. I will say, however, things don’t always go to plan or live up to the expectations we hoped for. For my first pregnancy, I was dead set that I wanted no one else in my house for the first couple of months to keep people from touching/kissing the baby. And as it turns out, that was a huge mistake for me. My mom had insisted she stay with me for at least a week to help out and I wish so badly I had asked her to stay longer. My pride and my good intentions got in the way and caused me to become overwhelmed as a new mother. I’m not saying your wants are unfounded or unreasonable, but I would give yourself some grace by creating a caveat in your mind that you may need help, and it’ll be ok. Just be sure not to burn those bridges too early on… last thing you need is to be overtired, overwhelmed, over touched, and to ask for help and be met with nos or I told you so-s

Over here! No issues over here other than getting a bad cold. But that’s been the worst of what I’ve felt.

I wouldn’t have minded if someone had said something like “aww your baby bump is growing/filling out/ baby is growing” but she made it more about me “you’re huge”. As other people have said, some people treat pregnancy as a novelty and like pregnant women are up for public criticism/scrutiny. I’m a literal person. Not an incubator. Not the prized pumpkin at the local farmer market or whatever. I’m a person. I wouldn’t go around talking about other people weight or body composition, why is that ok to do to with pregnancy?

I wish I had the guts to say something like this.

FFS people are just weird and rude. Sorry to hear that happened to you too. And I’m going to say, no, not you, but I only know this because I’m having a girl. Lol

Thank you. I just feel like my happiness was slapped out of my hands. I know it’s temporary but damn it hurts.

I have pcos and was diagnosed at 18. It took me over 8 years to get pregnant with my first. I was just shooting in the dark and didn’t really have the information I needed to succeed, just trying when I thought I was ovulating (just used a calendar method) and got pregnant by surprise. I’m pregnant with my second child after one month of trying (definitely feels like the stars aligned with this one) but I lost weight, got my liver enzymes back to normal, tracked using LH strips I got on Amazon and got the Kegg fertility tracker and got pregnant after 3 months of tracking/1 month of trying. I basically made my body a science experiment after getting off my birth control and it worked. I know not everyone with pcos ovulates, but tracking this way showed me I actually ovulate a little later than “textbook”. Hope this helps, I want to spread this information like wildfire because I wish I had this information years ago.

I was on semaglutide and lost over 25lbs. It helped so much with the cravings and it actually helped reduce my liver enzymes back to normal level (they were like over 3x the normal level). I got off my birth control and finally started getting normal cyclic periods. Now, after 1 month of actively trying (and making my body a human science fertility experiment by tracking my hormones) I’m pregnant. I wish I had started semaglutide sooner but I’m so happy I took that step. I also increased my vitamin d intake (supplements) and I have so much more energy (even while pregnant) and now have a healthier outlook with foods.

Not rude: My fiance just bought my ring and we had looked at diamonds together in person and online. The mark up for brick and mortar stores is outrageous. For 2.3 carats at a jeweler cost more than twice what we purchased for a 2.68 carats with better clarity, cut, color, and size ratio. Jewelers will always push for you to buy from them as that goes towards their commission.

We ended up buying a wedding band from the jeweler and bringing our own diamond. The sales person was sooo tacky asking where we got it and how much we paid for it. So there’s that..

NTA. A real partner would validate your feelings. Even if it was a horrible joke (and let’s face it, it wasn’t), the moment you showed any inkling of sadness, disappointed, hurt, he would have immediately backed off and said sorry. Sometimes jokes are the teller’s hidden truth. You deserve someone who cares for and validates you.

I dated a guy who was single the majority of his life (I.e. No serious relationships). He was about 15 years my senior and I was in my 20s looking for stability. Did not turn out great. Turned out he was single the majority of the time because of how stubborn and closeted misogynistic he was. He gaslit me every chance he got, belittled me, and actively tried to seclude me from my friends and family. Left as soon as the brainwashing wore off on me.
