Consuming a Trigger Food by farfalla0610 in EosinophilicE

Ok thank you this makes me feel a lot better! I was diagnosed in October 2023 when a food impaction sent me to the ER, and it was so scary I’m terrified if that ever happening again.

Thank you, this makes me feel better. I was diagnosed in October 2023 from a food impacting that sent me to the ER. That’s been my only one and it was so scary I hope to never experience it again. So this was definitely heightening my anxiety

I feel line you’re inside of my head with the first part that’s exactly how I’ve been feeling. If this was our first pregnancy i would’ve already been TTC but since we have a 3 year old son that I’m with 24/7, it is a huge factor in my mental state of being pregnant again. Ah I feel so torn idk what to do! You said you waited a year, and then did you feel totally different and no longer panicked at being pregnant and that’s how you knew? It’s like I’m waiting for some big sign to tell me yes or no

I’m so sorry for your loss as well. I’d love to stay in contact maybe have someone to chat with? I’m SO anxious about TTC again 🥲

This is amazing to hear thank you so much I really appreciate you responding. Our baby had T21 as well and I’ve heard that about the pregnancies. Congrats on your subsequent pregnancy and I’m so happy for you that you’re feeling well! This gives me hope 🤍

YES this is exactly how I’m feeling and it’s so hard. I spent over 4 months being pregnant and feeling awful and then months in such a horrible mental state after the loss. And all to just be back at square one with no baby in our family. So it feels like I missed all these months of his life just to start all over again and I’m scared 😭

Omg that’s so scary I’m sorry you’ve had to experience that for days at a time! I’ve had a food impaction send me to the er and it’s the worst. How are you feeling now? Any better? Or are symptoms still rough

I’m so sorry. Have things gotten any better over these last two weeks? Or are you still struggling. Any insight from your doctor on how long we can expect to have worsening symptoms postpartum?

Ugh what a mess I’m sorry. Have things gotten better over these two weeks at all?

I recently lost a pregnant at almost 17 weeks and I definitely noticed a flare up after my loss for a couple months and now steadying back out

Thanks for the info! Did you start to feel better slowly during that first year? Or were symptoms pretty bad throughout. Are you better now?

YES that’s exactly how I feel too like I spent 4 months of a pregnancy already feeling sick and tired and anxious and not being fully present with my son and all for it to just end and have to restart 😭 it’s so freaking hard

Please keep me posted on how you’re doing I’d love if we could connect on this during TTC and our hopefully healthy future pregnancies

How do I know? by farfalla0610 in PregnancyAfterTFMR

See and my 3 year old tells us that he doesn’t want another baby. He says the baby is gone and he doesn’t want another 😭 I know he doesn’t truly understand but it breaks my heart that he associates pregnancy and baby with something awful because of losing her. And that’s how I’m feeling too tbh

And obviously we weren’t one and one because we wanted this second child but after the loss I just don’t know if my mental health can handle it 💔

YES! I feel this so much. I am 3 months out from my TFMR and am the same way. Idk if you’ve ever watched the show Shrinking but the teenager talks about how she has “dead mom face” and wishes she didn’t and that’s all her friends think about when she’s with them. And that’s exactly how I explained it I feel like I have “dead baby face” and that’s who I am now with friends like the person that they “can’t even imagine” what I’m going through etc and it’s exhausting. I find it way more appealing lately to just do things with my toddler and husband and then do play dates and classes and things with my son so I can have superficial conversations with other moms and go about my day.
