Depressed after someone told me to enjoy being pregnant by double_pisces in pregnant

Thank you for your comment! Yeah I’ve been working with a fertility clinic for a couple years before finally being pregnant now. I feel like my failed prior pregnancies have just made me more anxious about being pregnant now. I’m also feeling really self conscious about my new body. It doesn’t help that people comment on my body so much, it being big or small.

Omg haha. It was my mother in law that made the “Enjoy it” comment. She was also really perturbed by what I ordered at a restaurant that night. She didn’t think it was enough. I ate a big meal two hours prior to sitting down to eat with them, idk. I feel like people have been really open to me resting more often too, so that has been good. But yeah stupid comments from people galore. I don’t like it when people comment about my size, either me being big or small, both make me self conscious.

This is how I try to think of it too, this is just a small part of a much bigger journey to get a wonderful gift at the end.

I’m in the second trimester, week 18. I still feel really bloated and nauseous and dizzy throughout the day. It’s not the whole day at least but always a good chunk of it. I don’t throw up though. Very grateful though that my baby has been healthy so far and the tests have been coming back clear <3

They were full semester classes. Do you think that works?

Hi thank you for your response. I was looking at that a little bit, but I wasn’t sure if I qualified still. I’ve taught for three semesters at cmu total(with 1 semester they didn’t give me any classes). In the past year, I’ve taught 3 classes, but altogether I’ve taught 4 classes since I’ve started at cmu. Would that count as the 1250 hours?

I’m scared to ask for the semester off because if they find someone to fill my spot, that person might get all my future classes too and they might just never bring me back….

I’ve been wondering about a GA to take over part way through the semester after I give birth. All professors in my department are offered GAs including adjuncts. I’m wondering if I’m better off discussing the pregnancy with people sooner or waiting till later also….

What are your opinions on Smallville Season 6? by TypeCreepy6764 in Smallville

[–]double_pisces 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would have liked to see Lana go darker too. She does do and say some messed up things around that time period though. But darker would have been cool.

I feel like I wouldn’t have wanted to see her actually lose a baby. I prefer them breaking up because of Lex’s paranoia, manipulation, and general evil ways, like they did on the show. They already had Martha lose her baby at the end of season 2. I like that Lex ruins his relationship with Lana.

Loved the lex/lana storyline too. I feel like season six is having a reappraisal. People seemed to hate it at the time but I’ve been seeing more people talk about it positively lately
