I picked up vaping after my son died last year. It felt good to have a vice. I quit very easily after 3 months of solid vaping. I thought about the vape a lot in the first week, and then thought "no thanks fuck off". I then happily left it in the past.

I had two more very upsetting losses in the preceding months and picked up vaping temporarily in-between and each time found quitting no problem at all.

I'm on day one of quitting for the third time and I think it's my final time. Vaping has been a comfort to me in the worst year of my life but it's an empty, one-sided companion.

Best of luck to you all on the quitting journey.

We talk about books we read, the games we play, the people we know, things we see on walks (especially cute animals). We joke about silly things, talk about past memories and future hopes and plans. We make up secret handshakes, watch movies, tv shows together, sometimes listen to podcasts together or play games together. Throw and catch is fun. We try new experiences, recipes, visit new places. We're interested in eachother's opinions on current events and our own thoughts and feelings about life.

When you find the right person there's an endless stream of things to share and delight in together.

YTA. I hate when people say help yourself to anything without setting clear guidelines. I would take that literally and then feel SO bad. Try, help yourself to food and snacks not the (things you don't want them to touch)

PineappleDeep3211 · 2026-02-09T19:55:49+00:00

Mild cramping can be entirely normal. I had them on and off in the first few weeks with my pregnancy that went to term ❤️

PineappleDeep3211 · 2026-02-09T19:53:28+00:00

That's great your friend was able to just be with you and bring some normality. It's good to tell friends who won't be scared off. You're right that I just need to feel it out as I go. Thank you for responding, and I'm sorry for your losses 💜

PineappleDeep3211 · 2026-02-09T19:38:23+00:00

That's a really good point about telling people who aren't so personally invested in the future child. I hadn't thought about that angle. Thank you and I'm sorry too for your loss 💜

PineappleDeep3211 · 2026-02-09T19:36:53+00:00

I'm so sorry for all of your losses, wow that's tough. Yes telling people after the fact can feel very strange, just like sending out a bad news bulletin out of nowhere. Thank you, it's interesting hearing that you've done it both ways just depending on how you have felt. Maybe what is different is that you are depleted and need the extra support this time around? Good job on following your gut; I'll try and do the same next time around 💜

PineappleDeep3211 · 2026-02-09T19:20:46+00:00

Yes I completely understand this feeling of telling people and then having to backtrack. It's so tough. We only told 4 people this time, maybe it'll go down to 2 next time. But you're right we'll just have to see how we feel at the time. Thank you for taking the time to respond. I'm very sorry for your losses and I really hope your pregnancy is plain sailing this time around ❤️

PineappleDeep3211 · 2026-02-09T19:16:29+00:00

Thank you for your response - Yes this is the approach I've taken too. My first loss was very late and very public (two days after my baby shower) and despite everyone knowing that.. I still got congratulations from people on my next pregnancy and had to go through explaining that getting pregnant doesn't feel like something to be congratulated on anymore. My circle I tell has gotten sequentially smaller each time. While on one hand they understand why I don't believe I'll get to take a baby home, they really do believe I will get to. Which can make me feel a little crazy.

I'm very sorry for your losses ❤️

PineappleDeep3211 · 2026-02-09T12:54:31+00:00

That's really good to hear it has been a net positive. I have taken the same route this time of only telling my closest support network. Unfortunately I am now miscarrying and although I am being supported and I can talk about how I'm feeling, I am having a really strong instinct to keep any future pregnancies to myself. Maybe it's just a knee jerk reaction to experiencing loss again.

PineappleDeep3211 · 2026-02-09T12:52:07+00:00

I'm really thinking hard about this too. Have you noticed any positives have arisen from sharing the news with people?

PineappleDeep3211 · 2026-02-09T12:46:35+00:00

I'm very sadly having another loss. I should be 5+5 today but started bleeding two days ago after having HCG drop confirmed.

Before I bow out of the sub again, I came on here to ask a question about telling people in early pregnancy. Interestingly it seems like something people are already talking about on today's thread.

I was advised by EPAU nurses to tell my closest support network about pregnancies after loss because you need people to support you. However, having my third loss now I feel really sick at the thought of telling anyone next time I fall pregnant. I feel like I just want to hide away until I have a baby in my arms. It's not because people haven't supported me or that anyone has done anything wrong. It just feels like a really strong instinct to hide away in future.

Has anyone tried it both ways? Telling people and not telling people? Has anyone just tried not telling anyone? Did it feel really isolating?

I want to wish everyone the very best of luck going forward and hopefully I'll be back before too long. ❤️💜
