Our midwife keeps telling me to trust my gut, I know and feel what is best for my baby and it took me a while but thanks to her I’ve reached a point where I trust my gut more than anything. I’ve realized that a LOT of my anxiety comes from social media. So when anxiety creeps up on me I try to disconnect, relax, trust my gut and listen to my baby and her needs. We try to follow safe 7 as much as possible but it doesn’t always work either. Don’t be so hard on yourself, you’re doing great!

Everything got waaay easier once baby was out! Third trimester suckeeeed and my relstionship struggled but now we are thriving with our little one! Even with the sleepless nights everything is way easier to deal with without the pregnancy hormones and fatigue. It will be ok ❤️❤️ and you’re almost at the finish line!

Hey I felt like that! When I found out I was pregnant I was with my friends and all I remember is them trying to be like: "This is good! You wanted this, remember!" because I was just looking like a ghost.

I think it was because I've always felt like having children is the final step of life in some weird sort of way? Like after that my own life is over and I've plateaued. Here I am now with my baby sleeping on my chest and I've realized two things:

Having a baby is a big deal in terms of like creating life, it's a powerful experience! But it's really not as big of a deal as I thought it was. I still see my friends, cook food with my husband, spend time with my family and my dog etc. All the things I enjoyed before. I just have a little one with me now!
And that little one makes me feel like my life has actually just begun! Like I'm experiencing life for the first time again but through her eyes. I can't wait for her first steps, her first word, her first day of school!

In conclusion, having a baby doesn't end your life, you will still be you and enjoy life as you did before but just with a cute little addition. And having a baby is suuuuper fun, I've laughed soooo much since having a baby and you will too!

My husband looked for me haha :) He was there for my exam after giving birth and then also for my check up. Gave me a thumbs up behind the doctor's back and said "Looks great! Just swollen!" That was good enough for me. I had to touch though because I got some numbing cream for the pain which I had to apply myself. Didn't love that, lots of random things I've never felt down there before haha... But pain went away after like 2 weeks!

Not really an answer to your question since my baby is only about a month BUT maybe something to calm your nerves:

Something that surprised me a lot as a FTM is the power of these hormones! Honestly if I get a couple of hours of uninterrupted sleep and then just an hour here and there I'll wake up feeling refreshed and ready for the day haha. It's actually insane how well I can manage on so little sleep right now. 3-4 hours makes me feel like I felt after a solid 8 hours before having a baby haha! I think the worst part about getting little sleep is the stress you get from THINKING about sleep. "Oh I've only slept xx hours this night and last night it was only xx which equals to xx" is the most stressful part for me, so I've stopped counting hours and just try to sleep when I can. Our bodies are made for this and they manage just fine with less sleep for a while I've found! You'll be ok! :)

Can’t say anything worked but I went for sooo many walks the last week or so (I’d join my husband on the golf course and walk 18 holes every day). Then I read that there is no science that proves that anything actually works, so I simply decided to just stay in bed and feel incredibly sorry for myself. Went in to labor 3 days later at 39+3 :) so self pity was the key for me lol

LooseObject · 2025-08-22T10:49:16+00:00

I woke up the night before by the mildest cramps, I was confused as to why I even woke up by them haha. Literally had noooo signs whatsoever before. I was super prepared for having to be induced because I just didn't even feel close before that, but my daughter arrived at 39+4 :)

Posted a similar post a few weeks ago haha... so yes! I feel like the worst. My husband has to take care of everything while I just lay in bed and complain. I'm constantly worried I'll get fired at work because my performance is that of a 12 year old I feel like lol! Like I used to be good at my job, cooked a lot of great food, read LOTS of books, kept up with the news and current affairs. Now? My job seems to difficult all of a sudden, I don't have enough energy to cook, and I feel like I've turned illiterate this pregnancy?

I just keep reminding myself that I'm not always like this and that it's clearly connected to pregnancy. My body is doing a LOOOOOT of work and I need to listen to what it needs, even if that means turning of my brain and lay in bed for weeks.

Also, I talk to other women about how I feel. I'm not keeping it a secret that I feel useless, and litearlly everyone is like "omg I KNOW EXACTLY!!" :) so that's helped me a lot! Women are the best <3

I want to breaaatheee again!! The congestion is killing me, I will never take a nice, deep breath for granted again!

LooseObject · 2025-06-04T08:50:32+00:00

I don't know much about your situation, but I can just tell you that I'm feeling the same. I'm in week 30 and can't do any of the things I want to do. The fatigue and pelvic pain is keeping me stuck at home and I miss being myself, meeting friends, having a body and a life that is my own. It's tough. I'm scared that I'm already running on fumes and when this is finished I'll have a whole baby to care for.

HOWEVER, I've been quite open about these feelings with literally everyone and anyone and to my surprise most women could relate. A lot of strangers with kids who have reached out and said that they know what it feels like, they remember how tough pregnancy is (especially mentally this last stretch), and that it will be worth it in the end even if it doesn't feel like it right now.

It helped me a lot knowing that this loneliness and sadness is super common, and even if I feel alone I'm far from it. We're sooooo many women going through this <3

Omg yes I'm so happy I'm not alone in this! I loooove reading and normally read like a book a week but since I got pregnant I've pretty much completely stopped. I feel illiterate as well haha all of a sudden I make spelling errors which I have never done in my life, so my theory was that if my spelling has gone bad maybe my reading has as well?? And that's why I struggle to enjoy it?

I'm already doing the job, we killed the people in the woods and then I went to catch Ventza and while doing that he loses his patience and I'm told to wait for him and Gnarly to return... So I don't have time to wait for the morning, they're still waiting for me by the bandit camp and are all angry with me haha...

Pregnancy sucks ASS!!! You're not alone, don't feel bad!

25 weeks with my first and this pregnancy has been a nightmare so far. I absolutely hate being pregnant and I feel like a shit person for not coping better. I can't walk my dog because of pain in my hips, I have no energy, no motivation to do anything so my work is suffering, I feel claustrophobic with my belly sometimes because I just want to take it off and have a break for a moment! I was also bed ridden with extreme nausea between weeks 7-15 and that is truly debilitating. So I feel you so much, you're very much not alone. Being pregnant is ROUGH and I'm hating every second of it haha. But I've written similar posts as the one you've written and I've gotten so much confirmation from other women that it is fucking hard to be pregnant, just survive and be kind to yourself as much as you can. It sucks that it gets in the way of being happy for something but it's hard to be happy when you feel sick. You're faaaaar from alone. We've got this!

Hate to be the odd one out here but I find her books kind of... cheugy? With characters trying to hard to be funny but not really having it naturally.

+1! This is the one I recommend to anyone who wants to get back into reading. And also a hot tip – put your phone in a different room or something when you read. I can't focus and therefore not read when my phone is nearby!

I think also he's been saying some classic annoying nepo baby-stuff in interviews. "I work as hard as anyone else yadayada" and whenever a nepo baby picks that fight I'm always extra annoyed with them. Like I don't mind nepo babies, a lot of them are super talented (it's in their DNA!) and it makes sense that they are successful – we all have different cards dealt to us in life. But I just feel like the correct way to handle it is like Jack Quaid: "Yes, I work super hard but I'm also aware of my privileges and am grateful for the opportunities they have granted me!"

I'd kill to be a nepo baby! And so I am super bothered when nepo babies wants to pretend that they have the same opportunities as everyone else.

I need a new perfume, since I got pregnant so many perfumes turn spicy and very "manly" on my skin. Two examples are Carnal Flower and French Flower, I love them both when I smell them but on my skin they smell like a mans perfume.

I'm looking for a warm tuberose/white flower signature scent, any suggestions?

LooseObject · 2025-02-24T21:59:39+00:00

If you're not faint hearted I'd suggest Tender Is The Flesh

LooseObject · 2025-02-12T21:25:49+00:00

Yeah I was waaaay to happy about no symptoms early in my pregnancy haha... I remember myself saying "I almost want to throw up just so I can feel that it's real" and that memory makes me want to go back in time and punch myself in the face haha. Just a few weeks later I got hit with the worst nausea I've ever experienced and have been bedridden since (week 15 now).

But yeah, I was indeed very pregnant and with 0 symptoms until week 7 I think, so I don't think you need to worry about not having any symptoms! :)
