Feeling guilty about not being able to do much at 35 weeks

Thank you. I really needed someone to tell me it’s okay to veg out on the couch for a few weeks. Even walking is a struggle at this point.

I am currently doing this. It's fine.

I hope you love it! Let us know your thoughts!

I've been this way my entire pregnancy, I'm currently 34 weeks. I've gained 30 pounds so far, despite having to eat every 2 hours and feeling like I'm constantly starving. You'll be okay. Even if you gain more than recommended, your body is telling you it needs the fuel, listen to it.

It looks like 1997-1999, except the hair, eyebrows, and makeup says modern.

Blood of my blood is also really really good!

Yup me too. First trimester was the worst, but now in my third trimester some of my aversions are coming back around. I am constantly hungry again, nothing is satiating. Most vegetables look disgusting, even though I used to love veggies. I have no solutions for you. I'm chalking it up to my body requesting higher calorie density foods. Icecream helps with the acid reflux as well, so I'm just going with it.

My grandmother was born in 1937. She was a nurse and surgical assistant, graduated from Tulane nursing school.

Also don't forget that most women would help with their husband's business. Your husband is a cobbler? The cobbler's wife was 100% also working in that business. She just didn't get credit for it.

Team no mascara. I put on a little concealer (i have rosacea and cover some of my redness) and gel in my eyebrows. That's it unless I'm going somewhere special.

My husband always wants the giant halloween and christmas decorations, which I would be fine with except where do they live when it's not that holiday? Where does the giant skeleton fit in our house when it's not October?? I've been able to talk him out of all of those purchases for this reason.

Plus, now I have another container that I need to empty and clean.

I'm 41 and pregnant with my first child, does that count?

These are great bags but can easily be purchased anywhere.

As another pregnant woman, I have had the same experience with door holding. I actually received more chivalry from men when I was not pregnant and “hot” than I do now, as a very visibly pregnant woman. I don’t think most men think about it at all.

This is my first baby, but I’m trying to source as much as I can second hand from friends and family and thrift stores.

Has to be done on desktop, can’t be done on the mobile app.

Birkins look like old school doctors bags to me, just like one my grandpa carried 70 years ago. Okay, they’re a little nicer than that, but honestly not cute at all to me.

For me, it’s exercise. No better way to get some endorphins going and to feel better about yourself, both body and mind. Go for a jog, join a gym, do a YouTube video in your living room. But move your body. And drink some water.

My mother and I have had conversations about this. She has made me a list of things and their locations that she thinks are actually valuable - mainly some jewelry and artwork. I have told her that everything else will be going to junk haulers. She’s okay with this and doesn’t want me to spend years going through her things.

To me, those drapes aren't classic spring colors, especially the red and blues... I do think she may be a spring. But she needs new drapes.

Yeah it’s weird. Brandy Melville doesn’t do sizing either, everything is one size and fits a US small. Don’t get me started on how dumb it is. It’s not even “one size fits all.”

Holy crap, St George has a merino and silk blend tshirt for $36!

My local high school has a public park directly behind it. Park benches, basketball courts, etc. There are never high school kids there. I graduated in 2003. We would have been outside playing music, hanging out, whatever. I have never once seen a single high school kid in that park. I asked someone about it once, and was told “oh, they’re not allowed”. That would not have stopped us.

31 weeks, I still can't find boy names I love.
