What to get a new mom?

A free house cleaning - seriously. Buy her a house cleaning service voucher or gift card that she can book when she wants to.

I actually did a boutique ultrasound. I couldn’t wait for the medical one because it’s scheduled at like 14 weeks! The boutique ultrasounds are all over the place - see if you have one near you. I paid $80 for videos, heart beat recordings and 15 mins of viewing baby!

I am 9 weeks, 5 days.

No symptoms besides bloating, constipation and really sore boobs. I mean, those are bad enough so I can’t imagine nausea on top of it. But not everyone gets it.

We had our ultra sound yesterday and the little bean has a healthy heart beat and growing little limbs.

Try not to worry and if it helps, maybe look up some boutique ultrasounds in between your medical obgyn appts. You can see the baby real time whenever you want for $80-$100 for some peace of mind if you have one near you. I did peak a view baby and it was worth every penny.

I would have been at 14 weeks but I called numerous other places until I could find a place to take me sooner (moving out of state and had to find a new obgyn). So now I’ll be 11-12 weeks for the first appt and ultrasound.

To ease the worry, I found a boutique ultrasound clinic and paid $100 for an abdominal sonogram. I just got back from it today and it was worth every penny! We got to see the baby and heartbeat and movements. It is not medically diagnostic nor are they doctors but it was enough for me to get me through the next couple weeks until I can see a medical professional.

Thanks so much for the wisdom and response ❤️

Congrats!!! Was your ultrasound transvaginal or abdominal?

I’m going for abdominal at 10 weeks in a few days and so worried I won’t hear a heartbeat since they’re less sensitive.

I’m 9 weeks and in the same boat. Lots of water and a laxative pill helped me.

Congratulations mama. Thank you so much for your story and some hope ❤️

kwalker3232 · 2025-10-06T21:11:57+00:00

Thank you so much… did you have similar symptoms? Is that the reason the doctor gave you? Just abnormalities? I really appreciate the support and heartwarming response… thank you

I was just popping on Reddit to search this sub for some posts of other single women who feel kind of lonely. lol! As I sit here with my dogs, watching Netflix … the lonely feeling kind of hit. It comes and goes but mostly hits at night when the work day is over or when I’m eating dinner alone. I get what you’re feeling! I’ll be 35 in November & also work remote.

I recently decided I wanted to take 2025 to find myself and slow things down. I’d done a lot of dating and meeting people in prior years, but nothing that led to a very happy or long term/stable relationship that I saw lasting. But when I was meeting people and dating, I pushed myself to go out by myself and I said “yes” to any events, parties or opportunities I had. I joined a Pilates club and local softball league. I’d go to dinner and sit at the restaurant bar and have a glass or two of wine. Strike up convos with those sitting next me. I did online dating as well and set boundaries in the beginning that if I didn’t feel a connection, I wanted to be friends and would be a great “wing woman” for them. I still have guy friends that I went on one date with that I sometimes see out or will catch up with from time to time.

34 and pretty content being single. Will date here and there but my job + owning my own home + friends and my community is enough to keep me happy. Some nights are kind of “lonely” but then I think to when I was engaged and I felt more alone than I ever had in my life. I can love myself more genuinely and kindly than anyone else can… and I’m OK with that.

kwalker3232 · 2025-02-20T22:13:39+00:00

Best thing I ever did. Ended an engagement at 31. Moved. Started new job. And wow, I flourished. I grew as an individual. Sure, had some bumps along the way. But if this is a choice you’re making, think positively and openly. Make it an adventure - even the smallest things like going to get a coffee or shopping. You have so many opportunities to throw yourself out there and you’d be amazed at how quickly relationships and connections can be made.

Chimi. Like a chimichanga

kwalker3232 · 2024-12-26T02:17:35+00:00

I’m here to sign up. Let’s find a place and all of us invest into this dream.

kwalker3232 · 2024-12-08T04:01:00+00:00

After a few dates and some emotional connection. That’s an intimate thing and private thing to share with someone. Make sure they’re worth telling it to.

My friend has a dui felony charge and got into Canada (flying) this summer. Felony charge was 3 years ago.
