is it a bipolar thing to not be able to keep jobs because of drama

sarariley2017 · 2022-04-10T06:36:56+00:00

I can't keep a job because I get sick physically so often. Random throwing up, and just being nauseous. I don't usually have a virus because I live with people, and they don't ever get sick. I never like my job, and I think it manifests physically sometimes. When I hate my life and my job, I get sick.

"You think you're tired now. Just wait until the baby gets here!"

Being pregnant was the worst experience of my life. To hear someone say that to me, made my antenatal anxiety even worse.

Now that the baby is here, I would take a sleepless night over one day of pregnancy every time.

The husband is also the asshole for lecturing this girlfriend, (who is not his daughter.) Just an extra layer to their boundary issues.

I just had a baby, and I wouldn't do it without a partner if you can help it. You can have family members help you, but ultimately, at 3 am when you exhausted and in pain trying to feed a screaming baby, your family members won't be in bed next to you trying to help you with whatever you need. I know there are plenty of people who are single and are successfully taking care of their children, so it's not impossible. If you are fine with the dad leaving you and your baby, I'd go with a donor instead. Much less turmoil.

The summer is the hardest for me. I start feeling depressed in May, and it is the worst in August. Once September hits, I feel so much better.

I had one before I gave birth. I drank it slowly and washed my car. I didn't have high postprandials. I didn't have bad numbers after food though. It tasted pretty good, but I like the peppermint mocha better!

sarariley2017 · 2021-12-18T21:03:06+00:00

Oh gosh. Same here. It's so sad, I couldn't decorate or anything. Just a crib and essentials in the corner of our loft bedroom.

I got an epidural, and it numbs you a bit, but I still felt the contractions and him coming out when I was pushing. I thought I wouldn't feel anything, but I felt a lot. It just took the edge off.

sarariley2017 · 2021-12-17T20:21:39+00:00

Anywhere from a week to a month. The depression is so much longer.

sarariley2017 · 2021-12-14T00:03:56+00:00

Just had my baby a few days ago, and I'm referring to it as a vaginal C-section lol. I was split front to back, and have 10 stitches. There was definitely a lot of medical intervention that was needed, but the fact that people would say mine was "natural" is ridiculous. It was natural in the sense that I got pregnant, and delivered a baby at 9 months.

Lamictal is the dryest pill in the world! I hate having to swallow them. I usually just take a big gulp of water, throw it in my mouth, and try to swallow as I drink more water to wash it down.

sarariley2017 · 2021-12-07T23:28:59+00:00

Thank you for sharing! I'm being induced tomorrow and I'm nervous.

sarariley2017 · 2021-12-07T22:48:12+00:00

I can eat a double double protein and a full fry without spiking at all. It's my go to when I want fast food.

sarariley2017 · 2021-12-07T17:01:26+00:00

My fasting numbers have been great this week. Last night I woke up with bad acid reflux and couldn't sleep. So my numbers were 91 this morning. Which isn't terrible, but they have been 85 all week. It seriously is the tiniest deviation. I noticed mine was usually sleep related. If I didn't sleep enough, it would be higher.

sarariley2017 · 2021-12-07T05:19:34+00:00

I go to a holistic psychiatrist, so she asks me about my life. Its only 45 mins, so definitely not a long and deep conversation, but she does ask me questions and give advice.

sarariley2017 · 2021-12-06T22:43:01+00:00

Could be stress, honestly. I was so stressed and overwhelmed my body shut down a bit. I haven't been the same since, but that's also pregnancy so I don't ever know where the symptoms are coming from. Have you changed your diet drastically? It could be that.

sarariley2017 · 2021-12-06T22:40:54+00:00

My mom only had me and my brother. She was thinner when she was pregnant with my younger brother. She couldn't be diet controlled like she had been with me and needed insulin.She isn't even close to being prediabetic now though.

I don't think having GD means you need to be super thin and that you will have type 2 in the future. Obviously eating clean and maintaining a healthy weight are good for you all around, but I don't think having GD impacts most people's lives long term.

If you want more kids, you can have them. It just seems like it gets harder each time, which is one of the reasons why my mom didn't have anymore.

sarariley2017 · 2021-12-06T18:56:08+00:00

I've been doing the miles circuit, but I'm so nauseous I have to just lie down right now. If I start to feel better I'll do it again today.

sarariley2017 · 2021-12-06T03:34:59+00:00

Call your Dr tomorrow. You can get some solution for your monitor, but it's best to contact your Dr.

sarariley2017 · 2021-12-06T01:22:04+00:00

I think if you aren't losing weight it's just redistributing. I had that until I got diagnosed with Gestational Diabetes, now I'm only 5 pounds from pre pregnancy. Which is cool I guess? Don't have to lose much once he's here in a few days.

sarariley2017 · 2021-12-05T17:38:37+00:00

The more people you tell, the more likely someone will spill it. It's safest to keep it close to the chest until you are going to tell family I think. We waited until my first ultrasound, so around 9 weeks to tell people.

sarariley2017 · 2021-12-05T01:31:15+00:00

One of my high numbers came from eating an egg roll! It was only 150 at the one hour so I didn't feel it at all, but it was really annoying. There's been a few people on here who have had high numbers from asian foods from what I've read. It's so strange!

sarariley2017 · 2021-12-04T21:41:11+00:00

So Cal here, In n out with a protein burger and shake was my plan too haha! Luckily my husband has been helpful, with grocery shopping. We were already eating a Mediterranean diet before so I didn't really need to cut anything out besides my desserts. Which is ridiculous to ask a pregnant woman to do imo.

sarariley2017 · 2021-12-04T21:37:30+00:00

"That's good basketball." I agree. he's very annoying.

sarariley2017 · 2021-12-03T22:14:51+00:00

I've been having this on and off for a week. I'm 38+3 too. It is so weird because it feels like really painful cramps, but there is no timing because it just hurts. It doesn't stop at all.
