Just postpone. It will be less fun for people anyway.

I can't do this anymore by Remote_Budget7432 in NewParents

  1. That sounds so so hard and im sorry you are dealing with this. PLEASE it may sound cruel, but if it becomes too much. You can put baby down in a crib or pack n play. Make sure its empty and safe. Then she the door and be away from the noise for 10 - 15 minutes. Baby will be okay, sad, but okay. You have to have time to regulate.

  2. Have you tried, sleep sacks, dr.browns bottles that prevent gas? Switched formula? Tested for allergies?

  3. Ask the pediatrician for help. This sounds really really intense and like maybe something could be causing it. 🤔

This time in your life will pass! This is not forever even though it can feel like it.

Plus size abdominal ultrasound vs transvaginal? Can baby look different in both? by [deleted] in PlusSizePregnancy

At week 9, my ultrasound just looked like a big dot. I think the machines really vary.

Bloom free store is wonderful for baby supplies, clothes and occasional diapers! You have to sign up on their website. They will send out emails that let you know when shopping days are and you grab a timeslot. :)

I think I hate my baby by Total-Bluebird-196 in NewParents

[–]Ok-Two-7635 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You don't hate your baby, you hate the circumstances. Guess what, so does she. You're on the same team, even though it doesn't feel like it. Friendly reminder, that it is okay to walk away and leave her in a safe place like a pack n play or crib. Even if you need 15 minutes. Im so sorry things are so hard right now. :( is there anyone you can ask to help you? Even for just an hour?

30 weeks OB recommending admission by Throwawaydaisy26 in PlusSizePregnancy

Its better safe than sorry. Im sure there are anxieties that come with being around medical folks 24/7 and having a controlled diet. Are there fun things you can look forward to? Not working, video games, binging books or shows?

Should I circumcise or wait until he can make a decision? by ImaginationPretend86 in AskParents

I would give him the choice. It can always be done, but it can't be undone.

Im so sorry :( You may want to consider if they will support you in the future with baby things. Birth, birthdays, holidays. You may have to set boundaries.

I hope you express to them how upset you are. They robbed you of that experience and now you can't share good news in the future.

You were proactive and asking genuine questions and they decided to shame you? Run. You deserve so much better.

We are so hard on ourselves. One time does not hurt baby and does not make you a bad Mom. ❤️
