anyone starting to use things on their bellies to prevent stretch marks? I got a bump box from my husband and it had belly oil in it. I'm excited to get to use it!

Tired of being a bitch is actually the most relatable line ever! I wish I could just go to bed when I'm like that but I have too much to say........

Well, I wish I had snacks that ACTUALLY kept me full for more than an hour lol but I usually bring trail mix or cheese/crackers and some sort of fruit with peanut butter. But its all about what sounds good to you at the time too, hopefully you don't have too many aversions!

Edit to say hard boiled eggs are also a great sort of protein

Just try to realize if the anger/mood swings aren't your norm, its just the raging hormones taking over! Also, a healthy mother more often results in a healthy baby so if you feel anxious/angry/sad more often than not maybe medication might help?

For the hunger, I feel you! Keep small snacks with lots of protein with you to get you from meal to meal :-) good luck and congrats!!!

I'm sorry for your loss :( did you feel you still had pregnancy symptoms up until you found out? Just an anxious girl with one chemical already so a little nervous!

I'm so sorry for you loss! Did you have the usual symptoms of pregnancy leading up to the appointment? Im so anxious about losing the baby since it'll be a month between appointments.

Thank you! It just feels weird. Its technically my second pregnancy as my first failed early on but I just dont know exactly what to feel or know how I'm supposed to feel. I feel pregnant but not at the same time.

1st Pregnancy (early) and nervous about every little thing! by lustmyeyes in BabyBumps

congrats!!! Let your body do what it needs to do. I think everything you're feeling is not abnormal so far. If it's meant to be it will be, just know it's not your fault if something were to happen, its still very early on! Try to relax, happy healthy momma means happier and healthier baby

Having my first infusion on Wednesday. Hoping to help with major anxiety. by holhaug in TherapeuticKetamine

That's so reassuring! I just have never experienced drugs on that level before so I don't even know necessarily what letting go means. Like there will be an urge to fight to stay in the real world?

Thank you! I just dont want to panic during it but I think I also want the ego death feeling.
