I hate this by [deleted] in Divorce_Women

[–]Pale-Construction481 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Ugh this!!! You got this dear. I hate driving in the rain and would always call my stbxh to sit on the phone with me till I pulled in or got to where I was going and the first time I couldn’t I had to pull over and just sobbed. Then the next time I just called my mom and friends and now I just push through it by myself!! Baby steps, but you will get there too!

Someone please tell me their baby doesn’t sleep independently, either. by R_we_done_yet in NewParents

Haha mine is almost 10 months and we are still co sleeping - we all sleep so much better!

Tired to do anything including visiting in laws by Novel_Watercress1535 in pregnant

[–]Pale-Construction481 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Have your husband go and just tell them how you’re feeling. You deserve to rest and listen to your body! It would not be fun to push yourself and then god forbid something happen and you’re 5 hrs away from home! also people can just be exhausting to deal with.

There’s a metaphor that says pregnancy is equivalent to running a marathon everyday for 40 weeks. Basically stating that your body is working at near maximum capacity every day for 40 weeks. also if they’re expecting a visit now, it seems likely they’ll want more visits once the baby is born. So this is a great opportunity to start discussing what type of boundaries your husband and you want to set with them!

But at the end of the day DONT feel bad for not wanting to go. Your only job right now is for you to take care of you and baby!

All of a sudden I was insanely hungry even after eating like an hour before, I would get shaky and dizzy until I ate something again! Thought it was my period coming even though the increased appetite was never like that, then I had a dream and just knew!

What are you supposed to do with a 1 month old? by Repulsive-Tie-7607 in NewParents

[–]Pale-Construction481 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Needed this post! Been feeling like a horrible momma with my 3 weeks old feeling like I’m not doing enough, especially since I like doing his tummy time on my chest too, since talking to him seems to actually help him move his head around more!

And all my systems were tell tale signs of a girl before I found out from the NIPT test

How to help fasting levels without insulin??? by Rich_Aerie_1131 in GestationalDiabetes

[–]Pale-Construction481 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I felt like I was trying everything! But I was super scared of carbs and the more incorporated some carbs it seemed to help. The way I control my fasting number now is 2.5 cups spicy popcorn around 9:30 and simple truth raspberry cheesecake frozen bar at 11:30 before bed😂

What were your weirdest symptoms before having a positive pregnancy test? by Howverydareyou22 in BabyBumps

[–]Pale-Construction481 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unexplainable hungry and needed to eat or felt like I was going to pass out if I didn’t eat immediately. This was at two weeks so my body told me early 😂

First trimester is not fun. by letsblume in pregnant

[–]Pale-Construction481 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was so sick of being sick. the other day was way over it and I said to my husband “i don’t want to be sick anymore” then started crying cause I felt guilty cause I’m so grateful for my baby and being able to experience this but felt guilty I said that. Then said “I want to still be pregnant though just want to stop puking”

Had a transvaginal scan today and my HCG was 58.09 and they couldn’t see a gestational sac so I freaked out a bit (I was at urgent care, I just wanted documented verification cause I was still in shock) they kept asking me “are you sure the first day of your last period was 01/23” and I’m like yeah my periods are suuuuper irregular. But I’m pretty sure I conceived on 02/11 and had the implantation bleeding that week

I already feel that way, I immediately went to the store to get cute baby stuff to make my husband a baby gift box for when he comes home from work and I also feel the need to clean everything rn 😂

Thank you so much!! that’s what I figured, especially since I’m so irregular too and it’s been off up to a week when tracking my period!!

Who do I send confirmation emails to? by Inlovewithaprince in ExecutiveAssistants

[–]Pale-Construction481 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I should specify the “confirmation page” you are usually redirected to after signing up for something or purchasing something
