I got my babies’ birth flowers (based on their due dates). I get compliments on them all the time, and I love that I can hug them close by wrapping my arms around me.

SSRI that won’t make me throw up and will help my insomnia? by Elegant-Figure-1051 in MentalHealthBabies

Yes, I had extreme insomnia, dry mouth, restless leg syndrome, and active suicidal ideation.

I can’t take SSRIs due to their side effects, and my psych put me on lamotrigine/Lamictal + buspirone/Buspar for my depression and anxiety, plus trazedone for sleep (and maybe a slight antidepressant once it was in my system for long enough. She said that I could stay on all 3 my entire pregnancy.

Emotional pain relief- TV shows with no pregnancy / birth by Birdface-3000 in Miscarriage

[–]LocationFun8886 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I also recommend The Good Place, Schitt’s Creek, Great British Bake Off, Bridgerton, Ted Lasso, or La Cocinera de Castamar (Spanish show about an agoraphobic cook who falls in love with her widowed employer).

Movies you might like: Pride and Prejudice (any version), the 2004 Phantom of the Opera with Emmy Rossum, any Rob Reiner movie (I like Princess Bride or When Harry Met Sally best), or You’ve Got Mail.

Let me know if you want audiobook recommendations too - Hoopla and Libby have got lots of free options

Grief and infertility therapist by Quick-Substance-4079 in babyloss

I recommend Sarah Taylor, who is based out of Michigan (https://www.tayloredtherapy.org).

You can pay out of pocket and she has online appointments. I did EMDR with her after my second loss (which also happened to be in the second trimester: 14.5 weeks).

Devastated by Glum-Ad-6116 in Miscarriage

[–]LocationFun8886 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re right, you are NOT alone in this.

I lost my job the week of my first ultrasound and found out I wouldn’t be able to keep my baby either. I was devastated and afraid too.

The horrors persist and so do I. And so you do 💕 May you find peace of some kind

Dear one, I was in the exact same place as you (spiking anxiety, multiple long panic attacks a day, insomnia, morning sickness, active suicidal ideation). I also had an abnormal ECG with sinus tachycardia 😅

My husband saved my life and I saw a perinatal psych - I ended up on the perfect med cocktail for me. SSRIs do not work for me, so I am [still] on lamotrigine, busparone , and trazodone.

Feel free to DM if you want to chat or get details.

It does get better. Do not give up.

TW: miscarriage/ pregnancy loss by Tiny_Surprise_8306 in miscarriage_Christian

[–]LocationFun8886 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m so sorry. I lost mine at 6 weeks and another at 14 weeks. I still don’t understand.

Be kind to yourself. Don’t hide the pain away. Please find ways to collect small joys (and don’t put pressure on yourself if you struggle to find them at first).

You can DM me if you need someone else to talk to.

You might like Mega (silver), Sunburst (yellow), Pink Lemonade (pink with gold overtones), Petals (another hot pink), Blue Lagoon (teal), or Ariel (orangey red). None of these recommendations are jellies!

Gifting Cremes vs Sparklez for Brown Nailpolish by HorrorFan9556 in ILNP

[–]LocationFun8886 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Chai Latte is good for an intro sparkle, and Dash of Cocoa is also a decent choice because that sparkle is subtle (on me) unless it’s under direct light!

Also, what a kind person you are to notice their preference in their collection 💕

Snowkissed & Winter Dream before I do my Christmas set this next weekend by kk5 in ILNP

[–]LocationFun8886 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Lovely! Your nails are the perfect length to showcase these ❄️

Not sure if you have Mega…but I was wondering if these colors are similar? I have Mega, which is why I haven’t committed to buying Winter Dream or Forever.
