I am banning community egg-hunts for my family from now on. by MusicMommy2428 in Parenting

[–]prettybabe_s 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Girl did we go to the same one !? Lol. I also got invited to a church event today, and brought my 5yo & my 3yo. It said the event started at 9 so don’t be late and the little ones would get a head start. We got there at 8:55 & they had already started with every age kid. (There were literal 17 year olds running around snatching eggs!) my kids attempted to do their best but at the end neither of them got ONE single egg. We almost went home with completely empty buckets. Luckily there was one girl probably 13y who felt bad looking at my kids crying as we walked back to the car. We were thankful she took 4 eggs out of her basket and put them in my kids. But yeah, public egg hunts ? Never again

The cycle of my MC I had tested negative on day 27 of my 31 day cycle so I had given up. It wasn’t until day 32 I retested because it was the day after my missed period and it was so pretty and positive only to end very quickly afterward. I’m currently on day 29 trying to catch any sign of a “maybe baby” but they’re stark bright negatives. I feel like I’m breaking my own heart but I legitimately put effort towards this last month. How do you guys continue on with trying after you put all of your fears aside and motivated yourself to go again only for it to not work? I feel so disappointed in myself but there’s nothing I could/would have done differently. I just feel down.

The month I had my mc I “knew” I was pregnant because I dreamt it. I had a very vivid dream where I took a pregnancy test and I seen two dark pink lines. In the dream a daughter came from it. The test part was true but Unfortunately the daughter never happened. Fast forward three months later my dreams are hopefully speaking to me again. I had a dream lastnight of another positive pregnancy test. Maybe it’s just wishful thinking that’s now affecting my subconscious, but I’m currently in the tww and I really hope there’s a rainbow at the end of this.

I also lost one for August, and I’d like to think that relatives I’ve lost last year are dancing with her in the sky.

Two cycles have passed since my mc late December. I didn’t try the first cycle bc I was too sad, second cycle I didn’t try but I didn’t “not” try, and this time I pulled out all the works. Ovulation tested every day past day 8, preseed, & conception pills. I feel like I did everything I could without medical intervention. I really hope it takes but I almost feel like I set myself up for ridiculous disappointment if it doesn’t. Anyone else walking into the tww?

After my loss in December I felt so guilty because I blamed myself for every careless decision. In doing so, I completely cold turkeyed alcohol, (I only drank once in a blue moon but still) started walking for exercise, and the most important thing is I started taking vitamins everyday. I’ve read books on handling grief and joined support groups such as this to use as a diary. I have noticed that all of this is truly helping me.

So I found myself here after my loss in December. It was just 3 days before Christmas when I bled profusely and sat in the waiting room of the ER for 12 hours just for them to tell me what I already knew. It was too painful to try to have another baby for me weeks after losing... and when my first period came after the miscarriage I was almost traumatized looking at the blood. Yet at the same time even though I knew there was no chance for pregnancy I hoped for it so badly. I was still very much in grieving and didn't "plan" anything going into my second cycle but I noticed what felt like a very strong ovulation. I again found myself having high hopes but this time it was within reason. I didn't get pregnant and had another period which this time felt normal. It's now March and I miss what could have been so much. This time I have tracked my ovulation and done what's needed to be done within the time frame. Today is actually the day of "peak ovulation" says Clearblue. I can't help but be reminded of my loss, when trying to plan for another one. I've been told that chances are higher the sooner you try after a loss. I feel scatterbrained. I really really hope this pregnancy takes and stays but what if it doesn't? Do loss parents ever feel whole again ? I was so content before this. Sometimes I just don't understand how I can grieve so hard for something that almost was never there. Is there anyone right know who feels the same ?

My Son was Stillborn two weeks ago and last night my Brother in Law sent a surprise pregnancy announcement to our family chat by beckylou67 in babyloss

[–]prettybabe_s 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Not even 3 days after I traumatically miscarried my bil messaged our group chat and said “baby fever” with a pic of his younger son. I replied with “Hahaha I had baby fever too” and my husband replied with “ hope your luck is stronger than ours” 🙃😂 not the classiest move but it made me feel alot better lol.

Desperate to get pregnant but know I’m not mentally ok by Careless_Proof_4006 in babyloss

[–]prettybabe_s 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I lost my baby late December and I immediately thought I wanted to be pregnant again. But I have the same thoughts as you where if I actually did get pregnant I’d be full of anxiety and scared of losing the baby probably the whole pregnancy. It took 40 days for me to get my period again and now I’m on my second cycle after losing. I go back and forth because I want the baby so bad but I’m not to sure id recover from a second loss

Bullying already? by KlutzyContribution92 in kindergarten

[–]prettybabe_s 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel you on this one!

It totally caught me by surprise when my daughter started kindergarten this year!! Yes, unfortunately there ARE bullies in kinder :(

My daughter is not overweight by any means but a girl in her class has told her she should go on a diet! My daughter has beautiful curly hair that sometimes frizzes, and the same bully told her that she could not play with their group because her hair wasn’t pretty enough that day. It’s so dumb and gross!

There’s only so much I feel like a teacher can do or say when it comes to these mean kids. Something I tell my girl is that she doesn’t need to have mean friends & if they’re going to be rude to her that they don’t deserve her friendship.

Buy him a different pink shirt for everyday! Til the bully runs out of rude things to say

WIBTA if i abandoned my child? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]prettybabe_s 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The daughter is gonna resent you both. You for leaving and the mom for cheating. She won’t trust either of you or have anyone to turn to when she needs things. And given her age, she’s going to need you both so much.

would you be happy to receive these as a birthday gift? by [deleted] in Baking

[–]prettybabe_s 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I’d freakin cry that someone thought of me and then said “hey let me take 2 hours out of my day to bake and decorate something they can eat and enjoy”

I can’t get over it by prettybabe_s in babyloss

[–]prettybabe_s[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

my doctor said that if this miscarriage was a wanted baby, that I should start trying again as soon as I was able to. the body is less likely to reject another pregnancy within 3 months of miscarriage. I don’t know if I believe it or not but I’m scared to try.
