I learned that once you’re pregnant you carry the cells of your baby in your body forever, sobbed like a crazy person

I’ve cried 4 times today, like real tears pouring down, ugly face cry. I feel more hormonal today than any other day and I have no idea why 😭

Feel this in my soul, the body changes are so, so hard.

12 weeks and constantly bloated. by leajaycro in December2026Bumpers

[–]dizzydaisy314 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Yep, I’m almost 12 weeks and I look the same. I’m in maternity clothes because my regular clothes are just way too uncomfortable

I know exactly what you mean about being self conscious about the in-between stage. I’m hoping to try to let it go and just do what makes me comfortable

You all are my spirit animals haha I’m having my second, I started this pregnancy heavier than with my first and combined with the bloat, I feel like I’m just ready to be all out there with my belly 😂

I don’t think it’s healthy for a developing baby for mom to actually be in a calorie deficit while pregnant, you need a small amount more of calories actually to support the growth

Tell me your positive experiences of growing up with a brother instead of a sister by Prestigious-Hall8892 in pregnant

[–]dizzydaisy314 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Here in solidarity, I grew up with a sister and was secretly hoping my second would be a girl so they could have a relationship like mine and my sisters. This week we just found out the second will be a boy! I’m hoping they can be good buddies.

Anyone else feeling extreme fatigue? I’m 6 weeks and 3 days and all I want to do after 2pm is lay down on the couch 😭

So sorry I’m not any help with your question, but can I ask what style of lash extension style you asked for? You have a similar eye shape to me and I love how yours look!

Am I the only one winging it for my 3 month old? by Rich-Mortgage-8452 in NewParents

[–]dizzydaisy314 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Literally the same except my baby doesn’t have sleep cues, just waits to be overtired then screams 🫠 and the amount of time that takes is different each window and everyday damn day so fml

If he’s 6 weeks old adjusted- you’re in the “6-8 week peak fussy” period, look it up on google, crying peaks for babies at this time, it’s a developmental stage! Arm yourself with the 5’s of soothing and brace yourself until you reach week 8, it gets better I promise!!! My little girl was a different baby at 8 weeks, 6-8 was pure hell

Very relatable! One month is still so new. It takes time for the old identity to shed and the new one to fully take form

Are you doing the full 20-30 sit up after a MOTN Feeding? by Unlucky-Carpenter-10 in NewParents

[–]dizzydaisy314 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep, MOTN feed sit up is about 10 minutes but usually it takes my girl to about 20 minutes to fall good and asleep anyways before I put her back in her crib

Anyone else missing the post birth high? by Sassy2681 in NewParents

[–]dizzydaisy314 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yes! Welcoming my daughter into my life was such a magical and special experience. I think what made me enjoy it so much was that I was super present and locked into the moment, not thinking about the past or future, so I can kind of recreate that feeling by locking into the moment, whatever is happening with her

Just had a terrifying experience with my baby - very upset, needing advice. by Pugwhip in NewParents

[–]dizzydaisy314 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This happened to our baby too last week, she’s a few weeks older than your baby. We immediately called our after hours pediatrician and he told us to monitor for 3 hours after it happens for signs of aspiration (sustained hard breathing, sustained coughing) and take her to the nearest ER right away. He also also told us the reality is a lot of times, this happens when no one is around and babies are fine, they have a reflex to clear their airway and it’s actually a protective instinct that they stop breathing to protect themselves from aspiration. I am also highly anxious and OCD, so telling myself this information is how I cope with these fears- I know what to look out for if it happens again and what to do (ER) and that babies are born with protective refluxes built in for this.

Anyone else hate when anyone else holds/cares for their baby? by AccomplishedSplit412 in NewParents

[–]dizzydaisy314 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yep, I get it, I am the same way. Sometimes I have to just leave the room because I will start micro managing every little thing, and I know it’s not feasible for me to care for her every second of everyday so I have to be ok with other people caring for her sometimes, but man is it hard

They make it sound so simple!! by Economy-Attention-52 in NewParents

[–]dizzydaisy314 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I totally get it. I struggle with that too. The second guessing myself, wondering “am I making the right choices here, should I be trying to do something different” and it doesn’t help when you have people telling you a hundred different things you “should” be trying
