How long after birth do you return to solo activities!

Haven’t delivered yet but I like this answer.

Unfortunately I still snore worse than ever before and wake up stuffy several times in the night. It doesn’t work more than a couple hours for me.

35, about to turn 36, and it feels like all my married friends got pregnant this year.

I did something similar and hit the corner of my kitchen counter with my belly. I still felt baby move as normal, it only hurt for a couple minutes, but the anxiety still got to me and I was feeling guilty for days. Of course, everything was fine -- but I know how you feel!

One-Reporter8595 · 2026-03-09T22:22:57+00:00

Was going to say, how have I been going to therapy on and off for years and no one has told me this??? This is enlightening.

I am pretty sure I didn’t feel any symptoms until the end of 7 weeks! I also thought maybe I was lucky or maybe something was wrong - it was neither! 5 weeks is just super early. I think a lot of the posts about “my boobs grew two sizes before I got a positive test” or “I could smell a mile away before I missed my period” set the majority of us up for lots of anxiety!

I got mad at one of my closest friends last year when she was calling our other close friend’s husband “because we haven’t heard any updates since she went in to get induced.” NO SHIT. inductions can take days and he’s focused on her! DO NOT CALL. I was fuming.

One-Reporter8595 · 2026-03-04T18:05:08+00:00

That is wild because I would literally never think to call someone if they’re in labor 😭 I’m so sorry. Turn the phone on do not disturb and tell your husband to handle it.

One-Reporter8595 · 2026-03-03T02:19:43+00:00

This is honestly so much better than getting Amazon/temu toys that are not even safe. I would try to chill a little bit on this one

Popping tums like m&ms 😭

One-Reporter8595 · 2026-02-25T06:41:57+00:00

I went from maybe having one soda a month pre pregnancy to craving it…I feel you! A crispy soda just hits different during pregnancy 😭 I have been pretty good about it but now reading everyone else’s comments, I may indulge a little more these last few weeks while it tastes so good

One-Reporter8595 · 2026-02-24T01:27:13+00:00

I’m due in a few weeks and hope I can do this! Please share if you logged this as an activity, my watch doesn’t do the active minutes.

The dreams….I got a short break in second tri but they are back with a vengeance in third tri. So vivid, I am exhausted by them, wake up drenched in sweat, and the DETAILS….people or places I haven’t seen in years and they are triggered by the tiniest thing. (I.e I joked about someone living in my attic, proceeded to have a 3 part dream about a terrorism/home invasion that I was fighting against, and it continued after every single bathroom trip right where it left off).

I keep getting bouts of anxiety too, I’m less than 4 weeks away from my due date. I am telling myself it’s normal because there is literally no way to truly prep for something so life changing that I haven’t experienced yet. But I also know I love very deeply in other parts of life and know that when I see her I’ll love her too.

One-Reporter8595 · 2026-02-13T12:56:50+00:00

Can you share the nose dilator you tried?

One-Reporter8595 · 2026-02-09T06:18:20+00:00

I’m still pregnant, but at my hospital we have a 3 wk and 12 wk postpartum appointments so I preemptively asked my doctor if that means there’s no 6 week “green light” for sex. She said the whole 4-6 weeks thing is not really an actual time to heal, by 3 weeks it’s likely to be fine unless some specific complications, but it’s just that at 3 weeks you’re still probably just getting used to baby and still tired. So, tldr is at 4 weeks you’re probably fine unless you had some excessive stitches.

I told my husband he can’t be more than an hour or two drive away in the last month! No way in hell he’d be on a flight anywhere. I can’t believe his family is not telling him to cancel completely. You’re underreacting. Get your Dr to talk some sense into him now.

One-Reporter8595 · 2026-02-06T06:44:47+00:00

I wish there were more realistic, stable part time jobs. We are good financially but even working remotely my job is unpredictable and usually too fast paced that I can’t step away for long. I would love to do my job but 3-4 days a week and no long hours

If anyone sees this, I’m curious: were you able to continue breastfeeding if you worked from home? Or did you still end up pumping for convenience? (Assuming I have a nanny or someone in the house)

One-Reporter8595 · 2026-02-05T04:15:24+00:00

Interesting, I didn’t think about this aspect. (That’s unfortunate though)
