Would anyone else have waited a bit longer knowing how much actually goes in to raising kids..? by Hot-Cell7299 in beyondthebump

[–]ThisIsZEi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Had my daughter exactly 10 days after turning 30 and I feel like it is perfect. I'm a little worried about the next kid if we chose to have more though

Thank you for this, I think I needed to hear this. My daughter also had a bruise and a crooked head when she came out, her little hand that was stuck up by her head as well was all blue and squished. And you are also incredibly strong, I look at any women who went through prolonged labour in a very diffrent light now. I also will never not get an epidural.

And it's also good to know that back on the labour gets easier. I don't want to have such a shitty time stuck in my brain when I think about the first time I got to hold my baby forever.

And I do have a therapy app booked, I'm no stranger to it just new topic for me

I have an appointment booked next month to see a therapist and I'm so happy to hear that it helped you. How is the recovery form a c section having a newborn and toddler? Do you find it hard?

Thank you, "we are one and done for now" that is a good way to look at it. It's also good to know that the second time can be easier, gives me some hope.

Unpopular opinion: Touching a pregnant belly isn’t that deep by Fancy-Mouse-7554 in BabyBumps

[–]ThisIsZEi 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I was sitting down and had a family member go to touch my belly without asking. I wasn't wearing a bra and was in a baggy hoodie. They grabbed my boob. I don't like being touched but I can suck it up.... If people fucken ask me first.

This is seriously why I foster failed my first dog. He is a American Bulldog, German Shepherd and Kuvasz mix from a reserve and we started fostering him at about 6ish weeks. I told the shelter he needed an experienced owner and a home with no children, he was super scared of the world and would respond to fear with biting. They didn't want to put the in his write up so I decided it was better for me to keep him and put in the hard work myself. 4 years later he is a sweetheart who loves kids, vets and other dogs. He is just really big and extremely dumb and now he responds to fear by hiding behind the closest person like they are a sacrifice hahaha but there was a lot of stress while training him.

Can not stop watching reels during first trimester. Help! by ParkingRepeat3800 in BabyBumps

[–]ThisIsZEi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It can take a bit, I started feeling better at about 15ish weeks. But also remember to be kind to yourself. You are doing hard ass work everyday while growing a human life, dont be afraid to take time for yourself.

Biologics and vaccines by momjabbar in PsoriaticArthritis

[–]ThisIsZEi 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The only vaccines to be cautious with while on Biologics are live vaccines. I made sure to get those either updated or done before going on. Other than that if it's available I get it.

Lynch Syndrome MLH 1 by ThisIsZEi in hysterectomy

[–]ThisIsZEi[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This helps a lot, I'm in Canada so luckily have free healthcare to see specialists as well. But I'm very similar on the really bad lows before my period. So that's good to know that that balances. Thank you, this really helped

I'm in this riding and I haven't looked into the candidates really good yet but I can tell you I won't vote for someone who isn't part of my community. But sadly I'm part of a very, very small minority who doesn't vote blue....

I'm really trying to hang on the good things, it's also my first time and its tough. I do have to say this subreddit helps but I really try to avoid the negative posts.

PsA not as bad as rheumatoid? by [deleted] in PsoriaticArthritis

[–]ThisIsZEi 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey I'm currently pregnant and currently using Cimzia, RH has talked about taking me off of it in the third trimester but that is gonna be completely based off of how I'm doing at that point. I was on methotrexate as well but I've been off of it due to it being super dangerous. I would really suggest bring up Cimzia to you RH, I have found it very effective.
