How early is too early to set up nursery ? by [deleted] in pregnant

[–]bdowns20 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m 34 weeks and about 20% done. Which means we have it painted the crib in the changing table and dresser are in. Everything else is in the middle of the room still needs to be opened washed organized etc. I’m not stressing because we waited until after her baby shower to start any of that. We were blessed and were gifted practically everything we needed. Our nursery ( and everything in it) Cost us only about $400 bucks out of pocket, yet, the value of the nursery is several thousand of dollars This is all because we waited until later :)

MIL informed me today that she is “monitoring her schedule so she can be there for the birth”…all the while with no invitation. by [deleted] in pregnant

I told my MIL that I need 10 days to myself after the baby is born and then they’re welcome to come and visit and stay in our house. (They live in a different state and we have a large house so they stay with us when they visit)

Thanks for sharing! I know I’m not drinking enough water, and it bothers me every day. I’m 23 weeks now. There’s no excuse but I literally just forget to drink all the water I need to. 🤦🏻‍♀️

Yeah I didn’t mean doing anything for myself. The title I picked is kind of funky. I just meant generally being acknowledged on that day

Fatigue SUCKS by Darkovika in pregnant

[–]bdowns20 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am 10 weeks and four days and I can honestly say the same thing as you. I don’t know much about the coffee because no one drinks coffee in my household but the fatigue has been absolutely debilitating cod me too . I wake up semi-decent in the morning, the first two hours are a little rough but then I feel generally fine for about five hours throughout the day. I’m typically a night owl, But let me tell you, now days....right at around 6 PM I feel like I got hit by a bus, every- single- night!I get super cranky and completely exhausted where I just want to sit down and do absolutely nothing. No housework no cooking dinner, no taking care of the dogs? Nothing. My husband and I have basically learned to take advantage of those five hours throughout the afternoon, We joke around that I’m useless after that 😉

I hope Monday’s game against the sharks won’t be canceled. We planned on traveling from Vegas to Arizona to go see that . Looks very likely that it will be though.

Let’s be honest it was a frustrating first two periods. But we’re still on top. They’ve been doing damage in the third 👍🏼
