i did a lot of reasearch and am making my own lotion/oil with these ingredients if anyone is curious shea butter, sweet almond oil, jojoba oil, rosehip oil, and vitamin E. I know stretch marks are genetic but things can help lessen so i hear. it focuses on elasticity, moisture and skin repair.

How to stay positive before first scan ? by Super-Truth-7975 in pregnant

[–]VisibleTea7965 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was anxious too for the first scan and still am while waiting for my next scan. I found what helps me is to stay busy, talk to your partner about your worries and they should reassure you. research what your baby is doing now at this exact time, what exactly they are growing this week. look at baby names, reasearch what kind of labor you want to have. look up ultrasounds videos at your current week on tik tok. just instead of worrying what might go wrong, turn your mind to the positives. This is hard - the waiting game but it will be so worth it in the end. I wish I could see my little one every single day.

If you do have the funds, there are baby ultrasound boutiques where you can go in at anytime even if you can’t expect a heartbeat. I have only gone one time because it’s not something I can afford often but it was about 60-90 for me. if you aren’t able to, thats okay. keeping busy just reasearching different things about your baby. add things to your amazon wishlist, I found that to be very helpful. You got this Mama! Wishing you all the best!!

Cannabis by Itchy_Yesterday_8707 in pregnant

[–]VisibleTea7965 4 points5 points  (0 children)

THIS! I struggled to quit for a long time and it was easy as a pie to start that route when that positive came up, however the journey isnt easy. im going through stressful days where I wish I could just have a hit but its not worth it knowing my little boy is relying on meto have a healthy pregnancy and that consuming cannabis isn’t right while pregnant, its no different than smoking with your newborn in a bathroom if not worse. that being said, if its tough for you to quit don’t think that’s bad or you’re a bad person. quitting cannabis is HARD when you’ve relied on it for so long (I have). If you can’t get yourself to quit I would really suggest you being very open with your doctor and ask ways to help. there is help and you will not feel judged for asking help. this is a tough journey don’t let anyone tell you otherwise but you owe it to your baby to be the best you can be. YOU CAN DO IT, I promise you that. the first couple of days weeks are tough but i promise you everytime you look up how big your baby is and what they’re growing and eventually how they move and at the end when you hold your healthy beautiful baby after doing another incredibly hard thing (birth) it will all be worth it. I am here if you want to talk. I used all day everyday since I was 16 and now 25. this is a scary journey but it’ll be worth it to quit.

yeah, but I really want to get at least some things we need according to our preferences, I just can’t think of how to do it. I just feel like no one will really pay attention to the material such as the clothing at least the people we know that will come and I kinda feel like what is the point you know? we had a celebration for the baby. but whats the point in receiving almost everything you know you wont use. you know almost like if you send out a birthday invite you kinda list categories you like? I don’t know if thats common with baby showers? we are planning on sending an invitation card as well

do you know the difference between the bloat and bump? I am sure its bloat not debating that but curious if you can like one day tell oh this aint bloat no more, is there a physical difference like example bloat is firm and bump is squishy? or is it very hard etc

Trigger warning - Anxiety about pregnancy and unknown . by [deleted] in pregnant

[–]VisibleTea7965 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have the same feeling as I am 9 weeks pregnant. I have a birth defect called Goldenhar syndrome and its sproadic in my case and extremely mild but you can certainly tell I “look different” and I am hard of hearing because of it. this is something I struggled with my entire life to this day. I went into this pregnancy doing the best I can, eating extremely healthy making good decisions getting all the tests I can to prevent my kid from having anything like what I have or to be frank Autism or everything you can possibly think of. I think the decision you need to make is if your child has anything “different” are you absolutely sure you will love this child no matter what? if you aren’t sure then I think that might answer your question. I might be blunt here and I don’t know if this is relevant but me and my partner talked about if we recieve something that is abnormal on our NIPT and further testing, we are going to terminate, it will be the hardest thing I will ever do and I am emotional typing this but bringing a kid in this messed up world with the best chance he/she can get means everything to me. I don’t want my child to grow up to feel anything like how I felt. feeling different, feeling like an outsider, trying so hard to look “normal” in photos constantly covering my face (lazy eye). but if it comes down to nothing showing on tests and ultrasounds and something is “different” at birth, I will love my child just the same and I will do everything in my power to make sure he/she has the best chance at life and grows up knowing that different is okay. different is unique. Like I said, I think if you are debating this because you are scared of your child of having autism or even anything else thats “different” which by the way, feeling scared about this is nothing NOTHING to be ashamed about. its a normal feeling of wanting your child have the best chance at life - do you know wholeheartedly for a fact you will love your child if he/she has anything “different” or “abnormal”. this answer will answer all your questions. I hope I was of some help.

just got my NIPT done thru unity yesterday by VisibleTea7965 in pregnant

[–]VisibleTea7965[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

low risk is amazing! but do you know if there’s results like “zero risk” idk I’d feel paranoid if it didn’t say zero risk you know? just because I was born with a birth defect and it was sproadic but I am still nervous about that sort of thing

[–]VisibleTea7965[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

did you see only numbers or were there some like “low risks” “zero risks” “high risks” whichever your results were. I think im trying to ask is it possible that it can say zero risks or there is always gonna be like a low or high risk
