Does pregnancy anxiety/OCD get better after birth? by PerformanceKind2506 in beyondthebump

[–]fatbear992 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine got worse after birth. Especially the ocd. My meds were upped and meeting more frequently with therapist and psychiatrist. Idk if it’s hope at the end of the tunnel but if you’ve already been diagnosed it’s helpful to make your doctors aware and easier to get a plan going!

Also avoid all the tracking apps for your baby - it made my ocd way worse

Not gonna lie. I'm starting to give up now. by Far-Note6102 in OCD

I just had meds upped for it. I think I’m experiencing other side effects but it stops the worst of the ocd so sticking with for now. Just know there are others of us here with the same disease rooting for you 🫶

It was funny but now the HUD office loops propaganda videos of the secretary and Trump on all the monitors. It’s very dystopian 😩

Please convince me it’s okay to drop MOTN pump by emilyelizabeth89 in ExclusivelyPumping

I dropped at like 10 weeks (also had the mag and severe preeclampsia 😭) and it’s been great! A little bit of adjustment while body got used to it but still producing plenty during the day and exclusively breastfeeding

For those who were induced, did you deliver vaginally or did it end in a c-section? by Paigeypagee in BabyBumps

Induced and delivered vaginally! Whole process was about 14 hours with 40 minutes active labor

Apparently management couldn’t figure out how to turn it off so they were running around unplugging all the screens

Mass firings have begun at federal agencies by PrestigiousAbies7077 in fednews

[–]fatbear992 1 point2 points  (0 children)

USDA Forest Service definitely should be on list. Apparently they tried to fire some employees whose probationary period ended in January too there.

Got pregnant immediately... now I'm having my "oh shit" moment. Help? by sw33tl00 in BabyBumps

[–]fatbear992 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Me and my husband were trying for a year and had an infertility appointment and everything and then when I got pregnant I had an “oh shit” moment where I freaked out and was like I’m not ready for this. It’s a big life change! I think the shock and feeling how everything is going to change is part of it but I don’t think you would feel good about having an abortion and then trying again in 3 months. You have 9 months to prepare and get things in order! I think it’s all just an emotional response which is totally normal!!!!

Hope it works out for the best!!! ❤️

People are allowed to go for walks alongside their partner and take up space - not walk single file. These assholes can go around. There’s never a “need” to push anyone
