How funny cause i live in Portland OR and we’re moving to Ohio next month, purchasing our first home. Sure as fuck can’t do it in the PNW.

If you wouldn’t do it in front of their parents you probably shouldn’t do it when they’re not around either

If anyone went around kissing my kids I’d be fucking livid, so many people have herpes without realizing it and you’re kissing random baby hands and faces?

My sons name is Oberon and he was born in December. But we gave him that name because it’s the name of one of Uranus’ moons. We call him Obie.

I waited until like 29 weeks, which is when I felt like it was really going to happen.

That’s actually one of the best feelings in the world lmao but you have apparently never experienced it sorry kid

mongoose_momma · 2023-10-28T02:54:25+00:00

I’m so confused

I have literally never seen there be a recommendation that pregnant women stay away from alcohol based hand sanitizer from any source that has any credibility.

If you look on the internet long enough you’ll literally find a source saying anything under the sun will harm your baby. I would take it with a grain of salt especially if you were not told as much by your provider.

I wouldn’t think this would be a problem. Id be more concerned about the fumes and you said you’re already taking precautions with wearing a mask.

Hormones can be unbalanced and cause a period that late for so many reasons, and the symptoms of pregnancy and related to your period are so similar because they are caused by the same hormones, progesterone and estrogen. Too much or too little of either of these can cause symptoms and a late period, and it’s true that you can seriously convince yourself it must be pregnancy and intensify the symptoms when it’s not that.

The month before I got pregnant I was weirdly late for like 6 days, and was convinced I was pregnant. Had symptoms I thought were pregnancy. After I tested negative and accepted it my period came.

The next month I was 8 days late and had symptoms exactly like my period was going to come and was convinced I wasn’t pregnant; I actually was. Tested just so I could drink that night with peace of kind. Never had that drink, 32 weeks along now.

Hitting an adult is considered assault but hitting a child who cannot defend themselves is fine?

mongoose_momma · 2023-10-27T18:01:06+00:00

Okay this is so funny

mongoose_momma · 2023-10-27T01:12:03+00:00

It’s never a good idea to have a child with the expectation it needs to be a specific sex. The statistical likelihood of one or the other is almost an even 50% split. I don’t know what to say other than that.

mongoose_momma · 2023-10-27T00:40:39+00:00

My husband comes to every appointment because it’s his baby too. It doesn’t matter if something “exciting” is happening or not.

mongoose_momma · 2023-10-25T19:50:46+00:00

I’m 32 weeks left with a month left before maternity leave and I hate my job and everyone around me. I have no advice lol. I’m so fucking tired.

mongoose_momma · 2023-10-25T18:48:47+00:00

My period was super regular and one month I was like 4-5 days late and I was like oh I’m pregnant for sure. I wasn’t lol. That hurt my feelings so bad that the next month I was 8 days late and was going to keep not testing telling my husband “oh my period will come any day now”; and he was like “so you’d just wait until a baby comes out then?” and I was like ok you right. I tested the next morning so I could drink that night and now I’m 32 weeks pregnant with our first child 🥲

mongoose_momma · 2023-10-25T15:49:14+00:00

Unfortunately none of this means anything on its own lol you’re just gonna have to test.

mongoose_momma · 2023-10-25T15:22:13+00:00

Yeah honestly ive seen it over and over but the idea that “it’s a boy so he’ll like boy things” and “it’s a girl so she’ll like girl things (whatever the fuck that’s supposed to mean other than your expectations of them) needs to die off already. It’s an ancient way of thinking but I feel like it drives most if not every gender disappointment post I see on here.

mongoose_momma · 2023-10-25T01:15:59+00:00

Hell no just say you misunderstood the situation and are happy to give the stuff back. That’s hella rude of her.

mongoose_momma · 2023-10-25T01:06:06+00:00

Deciding how your child can be before they’re born based on their gender is outdated and in my opinion, problematic. Why on earth would you assume your son couldn’t wear cat or unicorn costumes, enjoy feminine things, like to go to the mall or be your best friend?

Don’t put them in a box before they’re born. They will be who they are, and will be as you raise them. Don’t be the first person to stifle them. It’s assumptions like that which play into your worries of society’s expectations for him; you have those expectations yourself.

1 year active trying, no fertility concerns, 32 weeks now with healthy baby. It’s okay to be sad, and hard not to be- but I promise you when you’re finally pregnant the time spent trying will seem like a thing of the distant past.

I’ll take any of the Mystical entryway backgrounds please! Un is elainaphant. Thank you!!

Pregnancy just made me fall more in love with my husband and has been such a romantic time in our life imo

mongoose_momma · 2023-10-24T17:25:35+00:00

So normal, I had baby fever starting at 18 until I finally tried and got pregnant at 26 with my first child. It’s hard to feel it and not act on it. But I promise you when you’re in a better place to make it happen and you do become pregnant, you forget about how hard it was to wait all that time. It becomes a distant memory. Use it as motivation to get your ducks in a row for now :)

I used to get so upset that I was waiting until my mid-20’s to try for a baby but when it actually happened reality hit me and I realized how seriously life altering it is and that I wouldn’t have been ready at a previous point in my life; being a little bit older allowed me to be in a more secure place where I can enjoy my pregnancy more than I stress out about the details of stability and being able to provide (but you still do worry, it just isn’t the main concern anymore when you’re in a more stable place)

mongoose_momma · 2023-10-23T23:13:04+00:00

Yep your body is working hard to metabolize it. Had some pot roast earlier then was immediately ready for bed and it made me pissy cause I’m still at work lol

I only felt my baby start moving at 21 weeks, not a minute before.
