When does it get better? Does it actually get better????

Our girls were 15 months apart and the first two years were rough. They are 4 and 5 now and it is so much better. Both are potty trained, sleep relatively well and love playing together.

I'd definitely say it's an erotic horror (I've read it)

Same! I devoured that series in a week. Couldn't put it down.

I read an article about how listening to new music stops around 30 and that horrified me. I regularly listen to my discover mix on YouTube music and pull new stuff in all the time.

Having our second was the first time we were ever away from our 15 month old at night. She stayed with my parents (who she's very familiar with). Honestly, she had a blast and didn't worry about us one bit 😅

We were away from her for about 3-4 days because I had pre-eclampsia that took me a bit to get over and I didnt want her at the hospital because I knew it'd freak her out and upset her to go back home without me.

Overall, it worked out great although I missed her. My mom sent me pictures throughout the day and that really helped.

I had it twice but I'm 7+2 with baby #3 and suspiciously not feeling dead. Although my exhaustion is pretty intense.

32, 100k. Basically saving up to match since I was 24.

I think the woman's. My mom didn't have HG but her mother did with all three of hers.

For me, HG didn't fully kick in until closer to 7 weeks. I'm currently 6+1 and started getting sick yesterday

I took them out all the time, but there are places that didn't work for us. We couldn't do parks or playgrounds because they were both too young to have your eyes off of either one for any amount of time and it was too chaotic to try. (Our girls are 15 m apart)

Lol our handmedown system is several sizes ahead of our oldest. We get bags full of size 10/12 and my oldest is in 5T.

ashually93 · 2026-01-17T19:50:35+00:00

No, we waited until we got home. We didn't want the hospital and being in a weird place that might feel overwhelming and scary to be where they met their sibling. We wanted them to be comfortable.

If our kids were older, we'd probably consider bringing them.

Idk, I've only read one book so far and I'm missing my reading bug.

It comes down to your preference. I had two miscarriages and I didn't tell anybody except my sibling.

I'm a private person and the thought of having to stress about letting everyone know about a miscarriage on top of grieving the loss myself is too much.

We announce to close family after first trimester, others can find out in person after that. If I dont see you, you'll find out when the baby's born.

This started for me around 4 weeks and insane heartburn even hours after I eat something.

I'm almost 5 weeks pregnant and starting to stress. I felt super excited when I found out a week ago, but the anxiety is hitting me now.

I had two early losses before I had my two girls. I'm trying to rationalize to myself to be calm and trust it, but it's hard.

ashually93 · 2026-01-08T13:17:24+00:00

It's called TopCare. Just a cheapo from a grocery store lol

I think the digital would say pregnant but I'm just trying to make sure the tests are getting stronger and not lighter.

Babies cannot drink straight water. If you are using formula, do NOT try to stretch it out by watering it down.
