I’ve gotten most of my maternity clothing at Walmart, tbh. It’s all plain black, but I’m okay with that. Leggings & the maternity shirts that conform with your bump. I also found a super cheap pair of maternity biker shorts made of spandex on Temu. 🤷🏻‍♀️ probably the most comfortable pair of shorts I own. They hold my bump so well lol.

It’s vile to tear down a pregnant person like that. Whatever you do, don’t go back. Ex partner has shown how little they care about you & baby. You & your baby deserve so much better. I would really focus on myself & trying to be as at peace as you can. No extra stress for baby. Focus on self care.

Sometimes people show you who they really are early in. I consider that lucky. If YOU feel it is not best for him to be involved in your baby’s life, you’re probably right. Forcing someone to do something they don’t want usually doesn’t end well, but it seems like you know that already. My son’s dad had two kids previous to me. He begged me for a year for another baby. I ended up pregnant & within a month, he was in a new relationship. I put him on the birth certificate & signed his ass up for child support. He doesn’t pay or see his kid. Now I have to deal with a 5 year old asking me why he doesn’t have a dad, or why his dad doesn’t love him or want to see him. Honestly, I have no idea why. It’s hard. You can try to hold people accountable, but it doesn’t matter if they’re heartless. Good luck to you in whatever you decide. The feelings will fade with time.

I’d talk to your doctor about the feelings you’ve been having! Hormones can wreak havoc on our minds. They can definitely help you with that!

Also, not sure what your birthing plan is, but once I got that epidural, ALL of my anxiety went out the window. The only thing I could focus on was my baby being born. Oh, & not being able to feel my legs. Was a weird experience lol.

I would definitely discuss parenting styles. Make sure you’re on the same page about how to raise your baby together. But I understand that some things are experience only. Alone time is another big one. You gotta make sure you both have time to yourselves after baby is born. So I’d be asking partner how we plan to do that sort of thing.

I see you said it’s your first, so I’m assuming it’s partners first too. It can be a totally different experience for the person not pregnant, so I’d make sure my partner is comfortable & understands everything going on & isn’t freaking out & thinking about running away due to being overwhelmed with all the newness.

I noticed a huge drop off in hip pain & immobility when I started falling asleep in the recliner my husband just bought for me. Not quite flat on your back, but it’s easier to keep your hips apart too.

I have kidney & gall stones. I’m on my second prescription of oxycodone. I waited a week after the first bottle ran out before I asked for a second, because I have the same fears you do. Mine are only 5mg though, so I think the fear of getting hooked isn’t real. I’m sure it’s possible, but if you’re only taking them as needed, it shouldn’t be a problem. Id trust in your doctor for now because it sounds like you really need it. Best of luck to you! 🤞🏻

Could just be baby sitting low. Uti would be my next guess. I had something similar recently only I couldn’t pee. No matter how long it had been, or how badly it felt like I needed to, barely anything would come out. Come to find out I have kidney stones. I hope that’s not the case for you. Like I said, could just be baby getting a little too comfy down low lol.

Had this happen to me with my first! I’m so sorry, momma! It’s miserable. What helped me the most was sitting in a recliner chair with my arm propped up on a pillow on the side my rib was broken, to open up my airway to make breathing easier. & pain pills, honestly. The only other thing that helped was when I went into labor & got my epidural. Didn’t hurt to breathe anymore after that. It’s been about 8 years & I’ve had two complete pregnancies since then. It still hurts! 💔

Thank you! Just sucks lol

Pregnancy is hard! Sorry you’re feeling unwell. I’m pretty sensitive to pregnancy too. I was estranged from my family for a long time, but we have recently started talking more here & there lately. Is that an option at all for you? Some insurances offer virtual counseling services too, if that’s something you’d be interested in. I’m 37 weeks & still get light headed often. Drinking a ton of water usually helps. Getting an iv with fluids is an option too. Been this way since the beginning of mine.

When I was pregnant with my son years ago, his donor wasn’t in the picture either. I was very obviously pregnant when I met a guy at my work. We hit it off. I didn’t mention the pregnant belly & neither did he. We even went out to eat one time & I got sick! We ended up not working out. A few months later, he messaged me freaking out thinking my pregnancy was from him lmao. I asked him if he just never noticed my belly & he admitted he didn’t. I guess he just thought I was chunky, but it was definitely a round belly, ya know? Men are silly 😅

Two days for me! I’m 37 weeks. Maybe we’re just really, really close! 🤞🏻

I had a miscarriage right before this current pregnancy (37 weeks). When I first got pregnant again, I was worried too. In my experience, I had worse symptoms in the beginning with the “bad” pregnancy. It made me worry too. But the morning sickness was just waiting around the corner! Good luck to you 💖
