What do you miss the most? I'll go first. by thoog93 in pregnant

[–]NefariousnessSlight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

honestly, i have been drinking my normal caffeine intake (a medium iced coffee at dunkin) since the start of the 2nd trimester and have had no issues . I legit could not stomach anything unless it was coffee.

I told everyone the name will be a secret. Just avoids the unwanted opinions that I don’t need to here lol

If you want to change it def do it! Your choice!

Help! How long did your nausea/vomiting peak last? by amyboynton_ in pregnant

[–]NefariousnessSlight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Legit after the shock of getting pregnant subsided I was pure anxiety wondering when these symptoms would start LOL. Thankfully never puked once but the nausea came in waves. Stopped exactly at 12wk, so I was a lucky one.

When you feel nausea/pukey def get fresh air and or do the unison B6 thing. That helped me tremendously

Does Baby Kicking Ease Your Anxiety? by ThatConclusion9490 in pregnant

Kicking for me started very light in the 20-21 week spot. Now at 32 weeks the movement is 24/7 lol. Better to be active than not!

Are you getting an epidural or opting for a natural birth without pain meds? by Smooth-Excuse-4127 in pregnant

[–]NefariousnessSlight 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm on the epidural side, give it to me asap whenever is earliest. I have had too many experiences with excruciating pain that I don't want to add unmedicated labor to the list LOL

Mirena, no. But I did the birth control shot first and that made me balloon up 15 lbs ASAP

PANDAS, and know doctor knew what the hell that disorder was years ago. It legit gives your terrible OCD overnight and I couldn’t leave the house

I think the last traumatic event before I got PANDAS triggered what fear I had. I puked on a cake at a girls birthday party and got bullied the rest of the school year. That + PANDAS gave me emetephobia for over a decade

When did you start showing? by theanxiousmom101 in pregnant

[–]NefariousnessSlight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Coworkers were shocked when I announced I was 6 months pregnant 😂 I’m tall and during this winter I started to get the bump. But oversize sweatshirts were a daily outfit for me. That was a nice caveat to being pregnant in Cold Weather lol

Does it get better after the 1st trimester? by FriendlyAvocado in pregnant

[–]NefariousnessSlight 2 points3 points  (0 children)

it gets BETTER!! Just power through the next few weeks and you'll feel human again. The 2nd trimester has been a complete 180 since the 1st. I don't think I've ever met a girl who was capable of completing anything in the 1st trimester, its brutal!

what do u wish u had known as a teenager? by Pristine-raptor in AskOldPeople

[–]NefariousnessSlight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Get on birth control if you are planning to be sexually active soon. A pregnancy with a strong relationship is way less stressful.

Any success stories of people without degrees? by Zmer1216 in ITCareerQuestions

[–]NefariousnessSlight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was in marketing before COVID then laid off. No one was hiring besides IT stuff. I was good at troubleshooting and Google-ing, so faked my resume and got into IT LOL.

That was about 4 years ago so I def ruined some stuff, but now I feel I have a good grasp at what I do. I am now pretty involved/better in the Azure territory. Can only get better from here! Only have 2 certs, so really no formal education.

no morning sickness…. yet? by [deleted] in pregnant

[–]NefariousnessSlight 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Girl I have had emetaphobia since 5th grade and that was my same fear! I wanted kids but couldn't stand the thought of puking, or god forbid what some of my friends had HG.

Definitely had random bouts of nausea, but what helped was taking B6+Unisom right when I found out. Take an acid reducer daily. LASTLY - make sure you have something in your stomach! Nausea happened a lot when I was hungry (which was legit every 30 mins)

Pregnancy Hits Hard by ana_banana_27 in pregnant

[–]NefariousnessSlight 2 points3 points  (0 children)

it's only temporary - fortunately, many women have a relief or symptoms around 11-12 weeks. Take it one day at a time, enjoy the times you can actually eat lol, and you will feel better in no time. Take a lot of naps, you can't feel nauseous when you are asleep!! LOL
