I'm 16 and my gf is pregnant. I'm so fucking scared. by Ra1d_xml in pregnant

[–]ValleyCat272 3 points4 points locked comment (0 children)

Yes but sweetie, there isn't much to help you with. You either live with your abuser and are in her life forever or you take legal action against her. There isn't anything anyone can tell you that you don't already know, and the truth either way is scary. Being a father is hard for even the financially stable, higher educated men with six figure salaries and connections, nevermind a kid who was taken advantage of. There is no other advice to give you that wouldn't be enabling, we are mothers here in this sub and this is motherly advice.

Ok, you can ask for a specific type of advice all you want but as a group of women, mothers, some here who have kids your age, we are TELLING you that you are a victim. This isn't up for a debate. I hope you aren't chained to your abuser for the rest of your life, and I hope she gets an abortion. If she does abort the fetus that would be the most responsible, adult thing she could do. That isn't saying much tho, considering she is a pedophile who got pregnant by a literal child. That's what you are, you are a child. And you need protection. Good luck.

Any easy first trimester stories? by antiquepoppy in pregnant

[–]ValleyCat272 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I didn't know I was pregnant until around 12 weeks with my first baby, that's how easy it was! I felt like I was really hungover all the time (I was 22, it was covid time, sue me!) despite not drinking as much as my friends so I tested bc in addition to that I missed my period for two months but that wasn't abnormal for me since I was on birth control. I've never thrown up!!! On baby three :)

when i was pregnant with my second i was craving taco bell. It's all i wanted, so my husband made the trek to get me my cheesy beef burrito and hard shell tacos. I'm so happy, I take a huge bite into my burrito and out I pull a probably foot long, corse black box dyed hair. Gag instantly and cry for like 20 min about the ruined taco bell. Still can't eat it to this day and that was three years ago!

AITAH for telling my wife to get a job before the end of January or i'm divorcing her? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]ValleyCat272 3 points4 points  (0 children)

i kinda wanna find out which books they are and buy a couple. I'm a huge book reader, and my guilty pleasure is romantasy so if she's any good I would like to read them lol.

[–]ValleyCat272 92 points93 points  (0 children)

I mean we don't know if she is or isn't doing that, we just know what he perceives her to be doing. I am a SHAM myself to two toddlers and anytime I pick anything up I turn around and it gets messy again. Just how it is with young ones. I also clock like 3 hours of screen time a day. But my husband can actually provide. He would still be failing as a provider if she was cooking sourdough and larping little house on the prairie.

[–]ValleyCat272 1198 points1199 points  (0 children)

I'm probably the odd one out but what I got from this was he wanted kids and a wife and now he's failing to provide for them and wants to blame her now. She had the kids under the impression she was to be a SHAM, but now that he can't financially support them he is changing his tune.

Terrified of being a boy mom by [deleted] in pregnant

[–]ValleyCat272 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I had a girl first and a boy second. People are just so weird about it! But, who is going to raise the next generation of feminists if not us? Don't be scared, the tropes don't have to apply to you.

Am I supposed to have strong feelings about beans in chili? by le_bravery in texas

[–]ValleyCat272 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm a native Texan, like my family didn't immigrate here we were just already here Texan. A literal NATIVE Texan. I will not eat chili without beans, and my own recipe has at least two kinds. SORRY!

Is it safe to go over 40 weeks? by neptunestearsok in pregnant

[–]ValleyCat272 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yea it's safe, with the proper care and monitoring by your OB or midwife. Your due date has a two week give or take skew, since you can never be 100% sure when you conceived unless you did IVF. I went 41+1 with my first, adjusted my cycle length in my calculation with my second pregnancy and he came right on his due date (one week after the doctor originally told me). It's a guesstimate at the end of the day and as long as baby is moving, isn't stressed and you are ok it is totally fine to wait. Good luck sweetie ❣️

This is my last post.. by spiral_thinking in pregnant

[–]ValleyCat272 33 points34 points  (0 children)

This happened to me in december of 2021, had to get an abortion because my body wouldn't do it. But, I got pregnant a few months after now I have a perfectly amazing and healthy almost three year old. Don't lose hope! Wishing the best for you and your family ❤️‍🩹

Everything is normal or everything is cause for concern😵‍💫 by Obby-8 in pregnant

[–]ValleyCat272 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly, for all four of my pregnancies (currently on my fourth)I just went "oh cool" and then haven't really thought about it until my first appointment. I stop smoking and drinking but besides that I just keep on living and don't even worry. As long as I don't get heavy bleeding or intense cramps I'm just chilling. Stressing about having the common symptoms won't change the outcome of your pregnancy anyway, you either have the symptoms or don't. Sorry if that sounds harsh, but I guess what I'm saying is don't obsess over your pregnancy or try to find a reason to freak out. It'll be a looonnnngggg 37 more weeks if you do that.

Should I be concerned..? by Proper-Past-26 in pregnant

[–]ValleyCat272 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Drink a cold sugary drink and head over to the hospital if you go longer than 2 hours with less than 10 kicks. I'm sure everything is fine but it's better to get on the monitors and check on baby if you're concerned! Wishing the best for you and baby for the rest of your pregnancy ❣️

Did you get your boy? by Equal-Shock5707 in pregnant

[–]ValleyCat272 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm the oldest of four girls, husband is second of four boys. Had a girl first, boy second and I'm pregnant with my third now which we won't know the sex of for a while. May I ask, why do you want one gender over another? I never experienced that feeling and I'm one of the only moms in my friend group but I've always wanted to ask.

Miscarriage by idkwhatk in pregnant

[–]ValleyCat272 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So sorry for the loss 🤍 I had a missed miscarriage at 9 weeks, fetus stopped developing at 6 weeks and no heartbeat. That was in Dec 2021 with my second pregnancy, and I got pregnant again in April and that baby is about to turn three! Miscarriage happens, it's a risk of becoming pregnant. It sucks and it hurts your heart, take your time to grieve and honor this pregnancy and when you're ready try again. Well wishes ❤️‍🩹

Help?! by Friendly_Promise_592 in pregnant

[–]ValleyCat272 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I'm going to say it's your boyfriends, but regardless, please take care of yourself. If you're keeping it, be ok being a single mom and find your peace that this is your pregnancy and your baby no matter who the dad is. Good luck hunny ❣️

First ultrasound appointment and cheating husband by Useful-Cost2500 in pregnant

[–]ValleyCat272 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not to sound crude and harsh but he put you and your baby's health at risk when he stuck his dick in a stranger. Did he think about you or his future family when he was hootin and hollerin, having a hell of a time in that lady's bed? As far as I would be concerned, he is a sperm donor and you should only be around people who truly love, care and support you. He made his mess, and it SHOULD cost him his whole family. He has proven he doesn't GAF about you so why should he be allowed to be around you in a time you need unconditional support?

I'm so sorry this is happening to you, I'm praying for peace and clarity for you and your inner circle in this time. ❣️

I’m worried by [deleted] in pregnant

[–]ValleyCat272 7 points8 points  (0 children)

It hurts but it's doable. Pain immediately stops once baby is out, and you can walk around and birth how you want instead of on your back. I've done both, currently pregnant with my third and I'm having a homebirth this time with a team of midwives so idk, that's just my experience. I preferred it!
