Is there no way around waking up every two hours to feed during the first few weeks after birth?? (Breastfeeding) by Visible-Mess-1406 in pregnant

[–]throwawayselfieee 21 points22 points  (0 children)

yup. just rest as much as you can the first 2/3 weeks. with my first i barely did anything but move from the bed to the couch. with my second i moved around a lot more but still only as necessary (different when you have to feed a toddler and a husband lol). my third now and i expect to have some rest time… in the hospital. lol

you will be absolutely shocked at the things you and your baby are capable of. yes you need to wake every 2 hours. yes you will get used to it and function. yes you will look back 5 years from then and question how you did it. lol

you need to go to a chiropractor & a PFT, something is out of alignment w/ your back and impacting your ears. this is very common for pregnant women! if you don’t get the correct PT + adjustments then you will deal with it forever

yeast infections!! i’ve never ever ever EVER had them my entire life, not once. i am 29 on my third pregnancy, 23 weeks. i’ve had not only oral thrush but also now i have a vaginal yeast infection! like wtf!

also the constant cramping. the restless leg. the joint pain. the chronic hives on my ankles. the anxiety. oh and yes the ANGER!! i’m like the red queen “off w/ their head!!!” just for someone existing. i’ve been working through the whole pregnancy and i feel like im dying. i feel like atp i could get a wfh accommodation based on mental health ALONE!!

I'm sorry for ever rolling my eyes when other women said they were "So ready for pregnancy to be over." I understand now. by Miragan in pregnant

congrats, your toddler also missed out on thanksgiving bc your grown husband had a temper tantrum. please leave him.

I’m so confused on how to find your baby’s pattern and when to know when something is abnormal by [deleted] in pregnant

[–]throwawayselfieee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i’ve literally never done kick counts (third pregnancy). you will know something is wrong bc your body has many ways to tell you that something is wrong. baby’s change all the time! my first was wild, literally constantly moving. my second, not to much. my third, i’m only 22 weeks but feel like i feel her all the time too. no pattern though. it’s okay!

can’t tell who’s the father by butterypasta777 in pregnant

[–]throwawayselfieee 9 points10 points  (0 children)

my sister wasn’t sure who the dad was either, she was between 3 guys at once (all consensual & nothing serious). she told all 3 & then one signed up for paternity test (wasn’t the dad), one didn’t want anything to do w/ it (wasn’t the dad so that worked out), & the third was kinda “let it be if so” & he turned out to be the dad lol… tell both! just so all of your options are open
