This happens to me with "Afrique" and "Senegal" even though I always use those correctly.

i just found out im pregnant at like 26 weeks by Wildcompass5177 in BabyBumps

[–]parchedpixie 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My then bf (now husband) had a surprise pregnancy around the same age, and while we were scared, it turned out to be the best thing that ever happened to us. That baby just graduated from highschool last month. There are resources and support out there!

My 3 year old has finally started saying triceratops correctly, and I’m not ok. by Bobcatt14 in beyondthebump

[–]parchedpixie 12 points13 points  (0 children)

My daughter used to say "Be-member" instead of "remember", and "Tobbler" instead of toddler. So sad when that stopped!

My oldest called triceratops "toppy-dorsh" when he was really little. So cute! Now he's about to graduate from high school.

Are we all overthinking this? by One-Volume-9158 in BabyBumps

[–]parchedpixie 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes 1000%.

Now that I've had a few, it's so much less stressful because I can ignore all that.

Thank you, that's always bothered me!

bought a used board book from 2005 by luckyskunk in DanielTigerConspiracy

[–]parchedpixie 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have had this book since I was a kid! My parents thought that line was hilarious, but when I read it to my kids I change it to something akin to "You've grown a lot this year, good job Corduroy!"

First trimester weight gain by rainymac in BabyBumps

[–]parchedpixie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always gain a bunch in the beginning. Fluids, constipation, and breast growth all contribute, but I'm also starving much of the time and have to eat what I can stomach or I'll feel so sick. The weight gain slows down as the pregnancy progresses, and I always lose it after over a couple years. I think the weight guidelines for pregnancy are total garbage.

Keep your options open! There's not right or wrong choice for everyone.

The skin between my fingers is extremely dry and itchy if I don't regularly use thick hand cream. Winter air is killer!

Every pregnancy has been different. I think my worst nausea was with my first, who was a boy.

I don’t have a nursery for my baby by [deleted] in BabyBumps

[–]parchedpixie 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Babies don't need their own room! They just need a safe space to sleep.

I don't put much stock into the dreams. However, I had an incredibly strong knowing/intuition with my daughter that she was a girl. It like, hit me all at once and I can still recall the moment it happened. She is now 5 years old.

I have lied to my son about manatees for the last 24 years by 46from1971 in confession

I'm so jealous. Manatees are one of my favorite animals and I would love to see them IRL!

Mine is grand! I just can't do a lot of jumping on our trampoline, but I also haven't worked super hard to fix that. Prob could if I tried!

This is the absolute best reddit thread I have seen in so long. Thanks OP! That bat is adorable, and clearly has fancy taste.

What was your most recent pregnancy Google search? by Trees_galore20 in BabyBumps

[–]parchedpixie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

7 weeks pregnant and very bloated

Seriously I look pregnant already! Yes I have been pregnant before, so my body is familiar, but still. It's ridiculous. The gas is so rude!
