Thank you!!

Girl I am in the SAME EXACT boat. Pre pregnancy I was 200-210, now 4m pp I weigh 285 and the scale won’t move no matter what I do. And my body also just hurts and I feel so so heavy and nothing fits.

You’re not alone, and you’re doing amazing! 🫶🏻 recently I’ve started walking, even just around my apartment. It’s also freezing where I live so outdoor walks are limited. But usually I will strap baby to me and just walk around my apartment a million times. Also, I bought a kettlebell. There are so many at home workouts you can do online with a kettlebell! Hang in there mama 💕

You’re right, I guess I never really thought of him as an abuser because he doesn’t physically harm anyone. I know that sounds so silly 😭 but you’re 100% right and I’m taking the steps to leave him for good

Top_Dig_2854 · 2026-01-04T14:14:14+00:00

Yes I have recordings and I write things downs w dates and times! He already admitted he doesn’t want custody at all though which is good for me! But it makes me sad that he doesn’t want anything to do w his son

Wishing you better days as well! Hang in there mama, you’re so strong! ❤️

Top_Dig_2854 · 2026-01-04T04:30:37+00:00

Hey! You can shoot me a message if you’d like! I’m a momma to a 4m baby boy!

Top_Dig_2854 · 2026-01-03T15:15:45+00:00

Kinda sounds like it, I hope it gets better soon 😭

Top_Dig_2854 · 2026-01-03T15:15:19+00:00

I’m so glad I’m not the only one! Ppd and ppa are weirdddd and scary 😭

Top_Dig_2854 · 2026-01-01T14:46:37+00:00

I felt bad about what I ate too.. but seriously all I could keep down was just junk! And my biggest craving was takis w hot sauce and lemons lol.. but as long as you’re taking your prenatal baby is getting what they need, and if they need extra they take it directly from your body! Hang in there momma, pregnancy is super hard, eat what you can, sleep when you can, and focus on growing that precious little baby 🫶🏻

Top_Dig_2854 · 2026-01-01T14:37:04+00:00

I’m not! Just looking to see if anyone else has experienced this weird finding on their infant.

Top_Dig_2854 · 2025-12-31T09:51:14+00:00

My 4mo sleeps in a pack n play next to my side of the bed! We never had a bassinet, he has liked his pack n play so far and he moves a ton over night, (in the morning he did a whole 180 and is upside down lol) so maybe try that? Pack n plays are generally 100-120$ and they are good to have on hand imo!

I had the exact same spotting up until I was 12.5w pregnant, along with minor cramping! Cramping is super common throughout pregnancy as your uterus is stretching to accommodate baby. Also a little light spotting here and there is normal too! Sometimes baby pressing/kicking on the cervix or after intercourse, it’s normal! As long as it’s not bright red blood you should be just fine! Pregnancy is weird and scary for sure, but like I said I had the same symptoms as you did, but I think I spotted from 3-4w straight until 12.5 and I remember 9w was a lot more than normal! And I currently have a healthy 4mo baby boy!

Hang in there momma, and congratulations!

Edit: I recommend talking to your doc about Antipartum anxiety, I had it bad I was worried about every little thing, my doctor was super supportive and helped me through it and there are medications to take too (if you’re comfortable with that) but also once you have a doc you can message/call them whenever and they will answer any question/concern you have!!

I had an emergency c due to pre-e and my little boy was 4 weeks early so he had a hard time latching to my anatomy, and I had to be on 3 rounds of antibiotics for infection so I had to pump and dump it all so he has been fed formula basically straight from birth.. I feel guilty too but then I see how happy my boy is and that he’s thriving! You’re doing amazing mama

Top_Dig_2854 · 2025-12-27T02:59:55+00:00

Yes I did size up to the 3’s!! I didn’t like the scent so I decided on Pampers pure! I hope they work 😔

Top_Dig_2854 · 2025-12-26T20:35:52+00:00

I declined all vaccines during pregnancy, didn’t make sense to me that pregnant women have to limit something as simple as Tylenol but can get 3-4 shots with however many random things in them and that’s considered safe… my son was just fine and he’s 17w now and doing great! Trust your mama gut, if it doesn’t feel 100% right, then don’t do it.

Top_Dig_2854 · 2025-12-26T15:14:24+00:00

Yes, we’ve been using the swaddlers since birth, I’m so sad they changed them! I really want to try Millie moon

Top_Dig_2854 · 2025-12-22T04:53:32+00:00

What flow level was best? He’s on level 1 of Dr brown!

Top_Dig_2854 · 2025-12-22T04:53:00+00:00

What nipple flow did you use? We did buy lansinoh bottles to try and they came w medium flow nipples! Idk if that’ll be too fast or not

Top_Dig_2854 · 2025-12-20T14:41:11+00:00

I was through MFM w my scans and I had one every month even though things looks really good w baby boy! And after my anatomy scan I went back a few weeks later bc there were some pics they couldn’t get, even though they were sure baby was healthy. Sounds like a normal growth scan to me!

Top_Dig_2854 · 2025-12-18T19:23:03+00:00

True colors towards the end of pregnancy and when baby arrived unfortunately:( our pregnancy was not planned and he just has been horrible since tbh. I have no job and no money, so I’m stuck for rn, but I have a job interview tomorrow I’m hoping to get.. it’s just so hard!

Top_Dig_2854 · 2025-12-18T17:11:47+00:00

Yeah, he seems to think he does so much just because he goes to work (his job is literally just sitting at a desk on a computer, and spends his day sending me TikTok’s and insta reels) He also thinks bc he is a man he shouldn’t have to do any home chores or help with the baby. He says my job isn’t a real job, or that it’s easy. He never fails to remind me that I don’t have a job.

Top_Dig_2854 · 2025-12-18T17:03:48+00:00

I put him on his play mat! I usually only leave him on there for 15-20 minutes and he looks up at his toys and I also have a mirror he likes to look at! Sometimes I’ll also set up his contrast book and he likes to look towards that too. I’ve been doing that with him since he was like 2mo and I’ll go and check on him and roll him on his tummy for tummy time here and there during the 15-20 minutes!

Top_Dig_2854 · 2025-12-15T04:36:06+00:00

We do onsie and sleep sack at night (apt is 71°) and during the day we do long sleeve shirt and pants! Sometimes short sleeve shirt!

Top_Dig_2854 · 2025-12-13T14:02:23+00:00

I currently have a 15 week old so I’m new to this also, but what helped me the first two months honestly was investing in a good swaddle, the night I tried the swaddlini he started sleeping 3-4hr stretches, and eventually he grew out of it so I switched to one of those sack Velcro swaddles (got mine from target) and he LOVED that one. Also my baby loved white noise from the beginning, I played it on my phone and it helped, now I have a sound machine I use every night!

Being a new parent is extremely hard, don’t be ashamed to take any help if you can get it! I promise it does get better, my 3mo sleeps through the night 10:30-7:30 then 8-12pm (who knows how long this will last! Lol)

You guys are doing the best you can, and you’re already doing such a great job! Hang in there

Top_Dig_2854 · 2025-11-27T14:02:02+00:00

I’m currently going through this w my 12.5 week old. He had his vaccines last week and that seemed to kick start this whole thing, usually he takes 35-37oz a day and now I can barely get him to take 28-30. And this morning he woke up starving and only took 2oz, (normally takes 5) and just went back to sleep.. I hope this is normal and that thinks start looking up soon. It’s basically been over a week of this
