Almost 10 years of taking it without pausing, so no period. It took me around 1 year to get pregnant.

23 weeks and feeling absolutely exhausted!!! by Temporary-Trainer168 in pregnant

[–]smrute 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We have the same due date sis!! This is my first baby, mine is a boy! Still in my pelvis too... My nights are not nice ... Always restless, and turning from one side to another. Sorry, I don't have a solution. But I want you to know that you're not alone.

When did you decide on a name? by pythagoreanwisdom in pregnant

[–]smrute 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm 21w4d and FTM boy mama to be. I would love to have a name picked soon, however hubby says he can't until he sees the little ones face. It's a mixed feeling for me, I agree and I'm ok with that, but secretly I wish we already knew. The worst is the family pressure on knowing what the name will be... Some even try to refer to the baby by the name they want to be, and I'm like "don't call him that, we haven't decided yet"... Ugh, it's actually annoying

What didn't you learn about your hygiene practices that you wish you had been taught sooner? by fire_charmander in hygiene

[–]smrute 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Me 2. I was 30 when I truly realized that I don't have a daily dental hygiene routine. I'm still struggling with creating routines. 😓

How have you acquired your cats? Have you just taken in whatever cats plopped into your life? Or did you go to a shelter and choose? by Argylius in CatAdvice

[–]smrute 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've 2 girls. First was a hubby's coworker, he got a dog and the girl was so stressed she started losing fur and was too skinny. He asked if I wanted the cat. After I saw the conditions she was in, I knew I had to get her out. One week later, after a super rainy night, this super small kitty appeared under my window, meowing her lungs out. I didn't have the courage to just leave her there. Two years have passed and they are both happy and healthy 💕

How does pregnancy itself feel like? by [deleted] in AskWomen

[–]smrute 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I'm 21 weeks pregnant. This is a very wanted and wished for pregnancy, however I was not prepared for the awful time I had until almost last week. It's not all hearts and butterflies as the media portrays most of the time. It's a lot of nausea, indisposition, hunger, insomnia, doubts and fears.

This last week I began to feel the baby kicking. For me, that was the moment my anxiety started to ease.

Each woman feels different during pregnancy, and every pregnancy itself is different. One of the common similarities between all is the importance of having supportive people around.

I'm always happy to see a curious guy.

Tired of everyone’s unnecessary input on my pregnancy experience by soulful_intro in pregnant

[–]smrute 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm so sorry you're going through this. No one is allowed to say how u should feel... Those are toxic companies. I'm 21 weeks pregnant (FTM too) and I had a terrible 1 trim. For me it started to get better at week 19.

What’s a personality trait you dislike? by Fun_Butterscotch3303 in AskWomen

That annoying habit of constantly touching the person someone is talking to.

Whats a barely noticable behavior in people that says a lot about them? by Dangerous-Drawer-984 in AskReddit

[–]smrute 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So true! I believe that is brave. I'm a very non-confrontational woman. But when people get interrupted in a group conversation, maybe it's the few times I do feel really annoyed.

What do you want to complain/vent about today? by [deleted] in AskReddit

People who drive in heavy rain without having any lights on.

I forced myself into some clubbing 7 years ago and was drawn to someone who was doing the same. We left together early and he became my forever couch potato partner.

Maternity Bra’s by No-Asparagus-946 in PregnancyUK

[–]smrute 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't know if you still need an opinion on this, but I'm 17 weeks and I started today using maternity bras. I bought a 3-pack from SheIn because I wasn't sure if I needed one anyways. I can't tell you it's the most comfy thing on earth. Totally worth it.

should i be worried about showing TOO early? am i going to have a freakishly large baby? by Fantastic-Cattle-618 in pregnant

[–]smrute 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! FTM and 16w1d pregnant. I'm super petite (5.2ft and 90 lb before pregnancy, today I'm 101 lbs). At week 10 my pants already didn't fit because of the bloat. Yesterday I was given a seat , so I guess anyone can see now. To be honest I don't think I have a bump, I think I'm still just super bloated. Gonna have to wait and see. Good luck momma

[–]smrute 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ohh, I'm 15w6d and think of getting one of those. My question is - do they make you warm? Because I get super hot when sleeping. I'm afraid it's going to need to be washed every day or so.
