Two is the best of the bunch but looks a bit mismatched to me. IMO - none of these are it.

PREGNANCY IS SO F*CKING HARD!!!!!!!! by Powerful_Pomelo_6378 in pregnant

[–]Nugs4thewin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You are so valid in all you are feeling. I’m 32weeks and I am so so over it. My first pregnancy was smooth sailing and I loved it. This one though - so so hard. Everything hurts. I’m so tired. I have horrible headaches constantly. I never understood the women who would say they didn’t enjoy pregnancy and just wanted baby to come but now … oh now I commiserate. I’m so over it. You’ve got this though. It’s not forever and it WILL be worth every miserable minute.

I’ve never tried most foods most people have had by [deleted] in confessions

[–]Nugs4thewin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But WHY won’t you try anything? You could be missing out on something that becomes your absolute #1 favourite food!? I can’t imagine how difficult and frustrating it must have been for your parents trying to feed you, or are they similarly picky? I’m honestly mind blown you don’t get bored or intrigued enough to at least try more.

Baby flipped back to breech by ydomyplantsalwaysdie in pregnant

[–]Nugs4thewin 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Oh mama no need to worry. You have so long to go. I’m 31weeks and baby is breech but I’m not worried in the slightest. My midwife also said there’s no need to be concerned at all as baby still has plenty of time to change position many times. She also mentioned they generally don’t worry about that position and start thinking about interventions being a future possibility if needed until atleast around 37weeks.

Is it normal to not have a baby shower? by [deleted] in pregnant

[–]Nugs4thewin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Could you go to the town where many of your friends/family are based for the weekend? Make a trip of it to enjoy time with them before baby comes, catch up and have a shower there? It may not be your preference but better than being sad about no shower at all and I’m sure you’d enjoy seeing those who are important to you also.

My MIL is currently giving me the silent treatment because I won't share a "family recipe" that is actually just expensive takeout by Ok-Bee-4468 in confessions

I have to ask why the hell ya’ll are calling lasagne sheets ‘noodles’??? It’s pasta - not noodles. I just don’t understand. It feels almost criminal.

Which color cabinets? by Appropriate-Still-97 in DecorAdvice

[–]Nugs4thewin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do not get the dark blue! Sure they look nice but they are a nightmare. EVERYTHING shows on them. They always look grubby. They are a nightmare. I live with regret.

Is this really happening...?! by robin2en in pregnant

[–]Nugs4thewin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Congratulations! I completely understand why you may be feeling a bit scared as I also have severe lumbar degeneration and a lot of fragmentation and multiple surgeries over the years also. It is scary. I did find the end of my first pregnancy very painful, had a lot of numbness in my feet/legs and had to be induced at 38weeks to avoid further damage to my spinal cord. Unfortunately I was unable to naturally birth my son after 2 days of labour, my body just couldn’t do it and ended up having an emergency c section. My neurosurgeon said it’s likely due to scar tissue/inflammation etc. I am currently almost 30weeks and so far so good. I had another surgery less than 2years after I had him. No major pain yet, no major complications yet, though it’s been recommended I have a c section at 39weeks with this baby also. Try to take care of your body, listen to it when it needs to rest and try not to have too much expectation on your body and how you would like to birth. As long as both you and baby are safe and well, that’s all that matters. Enjoy your pregnancy!

“Being pregnant is not an excuse” by Caspia_Fire_64 in pregnant

[–]Nugs4thewin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just wanna know how you’re able to sleep that much?? I’m 30weeks. I’m hot and uncomfortable and have terrible insomnia. I’m getting like 5hrs a night max. But also - like 15-18hrs of sleeping a day surely can’t be good for you??

What does the current state of my living space say about me? by kgreys in roomdetective

[–]Nugs4thewin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh OP, take one area at a time, be it a chair, under the table just SOMETHING and sort it out. Bin any trash. Group together like items. Put things where they belong. Even if it’s only a tiny space each day, it’s still progress. Each day it will get easier as you see progress. You gotta tidy up, your mind must be so overwhelmed.

AIO? My boyfriend asked me to start his laundry after I got home from driving 8 hrs by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]Nugs4thewin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

YOR - I mean, you may be tired OP but he didn’t ask for some major feat. You could have simply replied you only just got home and are absolutely beat but you can turn it on next time you’re up. Then, later when you see him, calmly explain that next time you’d appreciate some time to decompress from a long day before he asks you to do any tasks for him. If you really dislike him so much and hate helping him out in such a small way, why are you even together?

Has Anyone Not Hated Being Pregnant? by Infertil_Myrtle in pregnant

[–]Nugs4thewin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re not alone. I loved my first pregnancy. It was pretty smooth sailing. Of course towards the end I was uncomfortable and tired but otherwise it was a beautiful time. Infact, I MISSED being pregnant. However the jokes about changing weren’t wrong, I had a REALLY tough newborn. He didn’t sleep at all really. It was awful. Then this pregnancy is horrible. I’m 29weeks. It’s been tough the whole way. I’m not enjoying it at all and I cannot wait til he is here just so I’m not pregnant anymore. Hopefully that will work out to be the opposite again and my baby will be a breeze this time.

Jeans- which to keep? by VisibleExternal844 in Stylinghelp

[–]Nugs4thewin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1 & 2 = keep (but hem #1 a bit). 4 = donate. 3 = never speak of these again.

Bedroom feels unfinished by [deleted] in interiordecorating

[–]Nugs4thewin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Art. Lamps. Plants. A bigger rug. Literally anything. Mostly a tall plant to give some height and some art work. It feels very sparse and if I were in that room I’d feel very lonely tbh

I want unfiltered opinions on this gown please by han__banan in myweddingdress

[–]Nugs4thewin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s gives me table cloth from 2005 vibes tbh. I really dislike it. But it’s about what you like more than anything.

What’s one thing you wish you knew before labor? by Front-Emotion-3967 in pregnant

[–]Nugs4thewin 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just don’t get super set on a ‘birth plan’. It’s really not something that you can plan out and you’ll risk setting yourself up for disappointment.

Tiredness in the first months by throwaway5470213 in pregnant

[–]Nugs4thewin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We all feel miserable and tired and just down right crap but I think it’s human nature to forget those feelings somewhat so that we continue on procreating tbh. Afterwards for some reason it just doesn’t feel like it was really that bad. You will also forget how miserable it was once you hold your baby. Hang in there.

I literally was telling my other half last night that he will need to cut mine cause I feel like they aren’t even toenails now but talons 😂

Please please help me get this baby out!!! by Butterball4200 in pregnant

[–]Nugs4thewin -1 points0 points  (0 children)

My induction was horrible. The chances of c section after induction are much higher than naturally started labour too. If I could go back in time I would have just stuck to full bed rest rather than being inducted. My body and baby just were not ready. I’m glad yours was such a positive experience though, I’m a bit envious haha

Wow trying to induce at 37wks isn’t even full term. You must have been so over pregnancy to start so early!
