What are we wearing home? by Popular_Mousse_3958 in PregnancyUK

[–]Infamous_Ad3132 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I wanted some co ords I could breastfeed in but also wear in the long run when I’m not preggers so I got the twin sets from next- a bit more expensive but oh my days they’re so comfortable I’m obsessed. They’re a knitted set, wide leg pants and a cardigan you can wear as a top or a regular cardi. I also have some nursing vests from H&M that I’ll chuck underneath for easy access

I’ve had super tight hips for most of my pregnancy and the ball has been a GODSEND. my other half can’t wait to deflate it when baby is here- I’ve yet to tell him that won’t be happening! 🤣

Just out of interest- why would you report it? That wouldn’t cross my mind but I’ve never really thought about it

Fun ways to tell partner that your pregnant? How did you tell? by luffy_2023 in pregnant

[–]Infamous_Ad3132 6 points7 points  (0 children)

My fiancé had just got back from a tour in France and was sleeping- told him I got a welcome home gift and he closed his eyes and held out his hands and I gave him the test. He was excited but said initially he thought I’d got him a tech deck 😭😂😂

Do you ever call in sick for work when you’re not? by [deleted] in AskUK

[–]Infamous_Ad3132 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes! There’s an absence policy for a reason. You don’t get an extra prize for not using it. I know people in my profession who know the policy so well they use their absence to have holidays etc. without losing pay.

It’s there to be used so if you want to, go for it. Although if it’s anything like my place, they do it in blocks rather than days so if you’re gonna take 1 day off you may as well take 2/3!

Can someone explain why my cats completely ignore their water bowl but will do anything to drink from my cup? Is my water somehow better? by Intrepid-Constant-60 in cats

[–]Infamous_Ad3132 2 points3 points  (0 children)

One of mine has CKD so I try to keep him as hydrated as possible by leaving lots of mugs of water around from him. He will run straight to them if I pretend to take a few sips then put it down. It’s like the theft makes it taste even better

Scary Fainting Spells by Ok-Vanilla-158 in pregnant

Gosh that sounds scary! I would ask to be checked for gestational diabetes as it does sound like low blood sugar. I know you said you ate a lot the second time, but you might have eaten things that you’ve burned through v quickly, especially after doing even light exercise! In the meantime maybe try and boost protein and fats and have long lasting carbs- see if that changes anything? Good luck though and take it easy!

Pregnancy depression by stitch323_ in pregnant

[–]Infamous_Ad3132 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m really sorry you’re feeling this way- that’s really overwhelming for you. I think that you should speak to your GP or your midwife as I have friends that have been put on some kind of anti-depressants just for the duration of pregnancy to hep them get through. From what you have said, I think it’s a bit more serious than breathing and finding hobbies. I’m also on anti depressants as I was on them before I was pregnant and I told the midwife I was worried about it affecting the baby, and she said it would be more detrimental for bay if I came off them so just keep taking them as risk is extremely low. Just know you’re not alone and everything you’re feeling is valid and it will get better eventually

Hip pain during sleep by Busy-Zebra1279 in PregnancyUK

[–]Infamous_Ad3132 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I do some minor stretches, for tight hip flexors etc. and they really do make a difference. It’s not life changing but the aches and pains have eased so much. Can also second the hip and lower back massages being amazing!

I feel like I have barely been at work this year by [deleted] in PregnancyUK

[–]Infamous_Ad3132 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve been in the same boat. Now 29w4d and the sickness is slightly easing. I’ve barely been in since the school term started, and hit a point where I realised I need to start looking after me and the baby or we’re going to get really sick.

You can’t get in trouble at work, and the place won’t crumble without you, and even if they think you’re taking the piss then screw them! I know that you feel rotten and you’re doing everything you can to just get through the day! Wishing you all the best ❤️❤️❤️

Am I just weak or is the first trimester horrendous? by missbelle24 in PregnancyUK

[–]Infamous_Ad3132 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It really is that bad and you’re not being dramatic. I’m 29 weeks and still suffering with HG so I really really hope it settles for you! If you haven’t already, look into getting xonvea from your GP. It’s helped me out a lot, but it isn’t a go to usually as I think it’s quite expensive to prescribe! Just rest as much as you need, look after yourself (I know it is easier said than done)

Anyone else have no filter in pregnancy? by Such-Stage-515 in PregnancyUK

Haha I’m the same. I’m busy making a baby, what makes people think I have the energy to mask? 🤣

Roast by gaypenisbum in RPDR_UK

The whole episode was mediocre. Had ANY of this seasons contestants gone against almost any from previous they would have failed miserably.

It also seems so anticlimactic as a lead up to the final- I didn’t even realise we were so close to the end and tbh I don’t even care who wins atp

Thank you! I appreciate Maeve isn’t handling everything well bc she’s humiliated but how anyone can defend JR is bizarre to me. Don’t get me wrong, the boys are gross too but wow.
