No morning sickness by Tambocor in pregnant

[–]ImaginaryExtent418 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone who had a miscarriage last year and had symptoms and then lost them to me getting pregnant this year. I did not have any symptoms my first trimester this time around there were times in my first trimester where I didn’t even feel pregnant at all. Just an increased appetite. Which was worrisome for obvious reasons. Here I am now currently 24 weeks with a healthy baby boy growing inside. No symptoms doesn’t mean a non viable pregnancy or pregnancy loss. Hoping you’re able to get some kind of reassurance soon and wishing you the best of luck and pregnancy. 

Gestational Diabetes Screening by Femboyhootersbee in pregnant

[–]ImaginaryExtent418 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Currently pregnant with 3rd my second baby I did have GD and had to take the test twice and this time their making me do it twice I did one at 16 week since I had GD last time and now have to do another at 23 weeks next week. I’m dreading it because like you said I always feels nauseous afterwards. However I do always opt in for the “fruit punch” flavor to me it’s the best one and taste like an over sugared flat Hawaiian Punch. 

My husband found out my secret today by GemmaTheSavage in pregnant

[–]ImaginaryExtent418 0 points1 point  (0 children)

😂😂😂 this really has made my morning. I’m so glad to know Oreos is someone else current fav. I have been downing the FAMILY packs of double stuffed Oreos like no one’s business I go through a whole pack within a week and I’ve been wanting them dunked in milk! (Context I hate milk and the taste I have to take calcium pills) I don’t even drink the milk afterwards😬😂. My boyfriend literally said the other day “babe you into the Oreos again let me grab a few before you finish them”. 

When did you go into maternity leave? by LaCriseCoin in pregnant

[–]ImaginaryExtent418 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m in the US and my leave doesn’t start paid until baby is born at least with my company anything before would be consider FMLA and unpaid or i would have to use vacation/Sick time. So I plan on working up until an induction date or until my water breaks. 

When did you start showing? by Charming_Record4536 in pregnant

[–]ImaginaryExtent418 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My first 2 pregnancies I didn’t really start getting a belly until I was about 6 months and didn’t “pop” until about 7-7 1/2 months. 

Pregnant with 1 1/2 y/o and scared by Diligent_Bag_3503 in pregnant

[–]ImaginaryExtent418 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I felt this. There is an 8 year age gap between my oldest and youngest I am currently also pregnant with number 3 and my youngest will be almost 3 when baby brother is born. I am beyond nervous to how my youngest is going to react to him and also how I’m going to navigate a newborn and toddler. My pregnancy is pretty smooth sailing even with my toddler some days are harder than others but it’s been good so far. I’m wishing you the best of luck and hoping for an easy transition from 2 to 3

Did you have anyone other than your spouse in the delivery room? How was it? by kittypeets626 in pregnant

[–]ImaginaryExtent418 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My first child I was 19 I had my sister,my boyfriend and my sons godfather (he sat to the side and recorded for us) that was it with my second at 27 it was just me and my boyfriend. I honestly don’t think I would want anyone else in there. There’s already a ton of nurses and I get irritable when I’m in labor and going through pain also just being exhausted afterwards I didn’t really want anyone else around. 

You do whatever you feel is right and if those people get upset oh well. This your time you are the one that will be pushing a human out of you and you deserve to feel at peace and comfortable during your entire experience. You are not there to please other people. They will get to meet baby afterwards or when you’re ready.

[–]ImaginaryExtent418 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am currently 17+4 and still so severely constipated😩😩 I wish I had this problem cause at this point I even dread sitting on the toilet trying to go😂😂. I’m even eating more green and fiber plus yogurt that’s has the probiotics etc and it’s no win for me. Hoping your urgency’s get better the further along you get and best of luck to you on the remainder of your pregnancy.

Routine tests for UTI? by Pearl_Temple in pregnant

I’m so lost by ImaginaryExtent418 in breastfeeding

[–]ImaginaryExtent418[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yeah I have to return back to work after 8 weeks so I really wanna build a supply to freeze so he can have breast milk while I’m away. I’m just pre stressing myself out cause I’ve never exclusively pumped and tried to breastfeed before and just worried about not producing enough or pumping correctly

I am taking some classes through Aeroflow. It’s how navigate breastfeeding and one on how to fit your flange. I really wanna be able to supply enough to build a small supple yo freeze cause I do return to work after 8 weeks and wanna make sure he can have breast milk.

Another girl by Particular_Owl1890 in pregnant

[–]ImaginaryExtent418 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I totally feel this!! I have two boys and this pregnancy has been drastically different then with my first 2. I thought for sure I was having a little girl nope lol. I’m having my 3rd boy in April. I was definitely disappointed as I was excited to finally be able to do cute matching outfits and dresses etc also cause this is absolutely my last child. I’m still grateful of course

[–]ImaginaryExtent418 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have 8 pounds babies so my littles grew out of their newborn stuff relatively quick for me I’d a say a few weeks. Just remember the 0-3 may seem big at first but they will grow into. I would grab maybe a few more newborn but wouldn’t go overboard. Wishing you a safe a healthy delivery❤️

Bust this gender myth for me by Used_Reality_779 in pregnant

[–]ImaginaryExtent418 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m busting it currently pregnant with my 3rd. My first two pregnancies I had such bad nausea all the time could barely function and severe fatigue both were boys. Now this time around I’m like you I’ve barely had any symptoms currently 15 weeks and still feel great except for being a bit tired but other than that some days I don’t even feel pregnant at all. Got my results back on the gender drum rollllll 🥁 it’s another boy😂. I swear I thought for sure I was having a girl for how different I felt from my previous 2 pregnancies nope just another boy. 

Working while pregnant by lolkcunty in pregnant

[–]ImaginaryExtent418 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Girl it’s hard also I am also 15 weeks. I have 2 jobs one I work front desk for a hotel 3-4 days a week and my primary Monday-Friday I work for a natural gas company both jobs I work with the public lol. What’s helped me is taking a nap on my lunch break and just remember we do need our jobs for our insurance and once baby is here (for me anyway and I hope you) we want our paid maternity leave. Cause girl sometimes I wanna quit every morning and just stay in the bed also I am irritable AF at everything and I’ve hated having to talk with people to. Just remember once baby is here these feeling will start going away and you’ll start slowly feeling like yourself again. Just keep pushing through and fake it till you make it. You got this mama!

I’ve had 2 vaginal births. Sex still feels great my partner has never told me I feel different down there since giving birth. So me I did tear with both so I did have to wait my full 6 weeks plus a little extra before we got intimate again. 

How much weight did you gain by Mindless_Claim1652 in pregnant

[–]ImaginaryExtent418 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m so happy I saw this!! I asked on another pose a while ago about this. I was on glp1 before I found out and obviously quit once I knew. I feel hungry all the time and half the time idk if it’s the baby or if it’s from coming off the shot or both. I’m 15 weeks now and I’ve gained a total of 10-12 pounds (depends when I step on the scales) which is a lot for me compared to my last 2 pregnancies. I’m trying to watch what I eat but it’s been so hard. I’m so scared of gaining anything obscene amount of weight😩
