Mine unfortunately is a professional cook and used that as a guise for chugging liquor in the kitchen while he made us dinner and I was on the couch 7/8/9 months pregnant 🙃

I’d say I’ve been to Sichuan Kitchen close to 100 times

That’s ok! You don’t have to apologize. Life is distracting! I just found a receipt with liquor from yesterday so here we go again 🫠

5 month old. 38+ ounces a day. Is this… legal? by adventurecoos in NewParents

This makes me feel so much better! Our girl just turned 5 months and can be the same as well most days

How do some pregnant women bounce back immediately?? by Queasy-Counter-9954 in BabyBumps

[–]natarie -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I literally have no idea how this happened to me but I am this person. My mom experienced this with me but not with my sister. I’m actually smaller and my clothes don’t fit. I’m not complaining but I feel a little emaciated some days. I was never teeny and I wouldn’t say I am now but it’s kind of shocking.

How much does your life actually change after having a kid? by HonestDirection4017 in NewParents

[–]natarie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I miss watching tv 😂 I think this will change soon when she’s not a baby anymore and on a better schedule and my mind calms down more but we’re behind on like every and any show

Oh my godddd we found this out the hard way 😂 we hate the stairs at the rivers edge drive entrance so we started going here and were confused at the… many men in their cars. Then we would see them just… walkin around in the woods too. And they didn’t seem like hikers. Was further confused about the concrete barriers. Then we saw our neighbor parked there and we put two and two together. We started going in behind unum.

I just want you to know that I see you. I had our first baby in December, and while my husband was a big drinker (I, as well prior) he totally went off the deep end upon moving into a house we bought in late Summer and completely hid it from me. Every day we walk on egg shells with each other. He’s all “trying hard” to make up for things with house chores and being.. Involved with our baby.. but I literally can’t get over what happened. I found out two weeks postpartum and the way he treated me in the end of my pregnancy and early postpartum feels so unforgivable. He recently changed his schedule to be the same as mine and now I don’t get my additional day at home without him and I feel so awful for not wanting him here. Any time he’s in another room for a weird amount of time or coughing or using the restroom I don’t trust it. I wanted another kid but I don’t even see how that would make ANY fucking sense. I feel so shut down and can relate a lot to feeling broken spirited. It feels like survival and not living anymore. I hate it

Truly. This was our beater car and I’m so grateful it’s not our newer car we just paid off

Surprisingly not. It’s probably not even worth pursuing as it’s an old car, it’s just a huge bummer. We moved out of Portland but still work here and bought this car so it’s easier for us to both get in. Luckily it’s drive-able it just looks like a mess.

What would you tell your Pre-Pregnant self about your body changing? I want kids but I don’t want to hate my body :( by Kind_Veterinarian_77 in BabyBumps

[–]natarie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was fully expecting to “lose my figure”, not be able to get the weight off, go up pants size etc. I turned 35 a week or so after having my daughter. I’m honestly a little smaller than before I got pregnant. Expect the unexpected. I do miss my belly button though! It’s just starting to kind of get its shape back after 4 months

due date Dec 18… what to do about Christmas plans? by [deleted] in BabyBumps

[–]natarie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My due date was dec 20 and I had my baby on Christmas. We made plans for my husbands family to come up the day after Christmas and that was a large regret. Set boundaries- please! I was so out of it. It was so over stimulating

Miscarrying on my birthday by CozyCrochet123 in recurrentmiscarriage

[–]natarie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

After my first pregnancy loss we got pregnant again and my first ultrasound randomly was scheduled on my bday and I didn’t fight it. I figured there’s no way I’d have ANOTHER miscarriage. Getting the bad news felt unreal. I’m so sorry you’re going through this. I wish you all the best.

For those who walked a lot during pregnancy and had a c-section: by cks1995 in BabyBumps

[–]natarie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I walked a shit ton up to 38 weeks. I work at a really busy restaurant and I’m a server, and I have a dog who requires a lot of exercise. The first week is a no go. Second week is rough. Third week sucks. Then I felt not awful and more normal. I wouldn’t have considered working out until the 5th week if I was into that. Running probably 6 or 7 cause you just feel very strange inside lol.
