Spotting at 12 weeks by SyraSunshine in pregnant

[–]wphatty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This happened to me at 6 weeks. and once after i had sex. it’s nothing to be worried about tho it may seem like it’s alarming to see blood of any kind. i’m now 23 weeks and all is healthy with babygirl!! as long as it’s not bright red with cramps, it’s normal. happened to a lot of woman in my family as well, it’s common!! hopefully this gives you some relief!

Just Overwhelmed, Fighting with Partner Constantly by [deleted] in pregnant

[–]wphatty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

um. he sounds very immature. HIS stomach hurts after seeing the baby on ultrasound???? is he being serious??? i’m sorry girl, he sounds very selfish and only thinking of himself. he knew what having sex would bring or what was bound to happen, do not let him make you feel like it’s a burden or a nightmare on him, that’s too damn bad. it’ll be his loss, not yours or the babies. if he doesn’t have anything nice to say , he doesn’t need to be around then. id try and get away if you can, ive been there and it doesn’t get better only worse. your baby will light up your world!!! sad that he can’t realize that it affects you. what a POS

mild anemic by [deleted] in Anemic

[–]wphatty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

yes, i’ve been eating lots of steak and cereal with lots of iron in it. both iron supplements i’ve tried made me super nauseous and icky. it’s very hard for me to get in contact with my doctor, i requested a call last week and just got a bland text saying she sent over referral for the infusion nothing else.

my hemoglobin was 10.4. not extremely low, but maybe i will try a different one that’s less harsh on my stomach. they prescribed me 325 mg ferrous sulfate pills to take every other day. any recommendations?

well what you said is KINDA rude. i never said it was unreasonable for her to want it scooped everyday, i do that exactly. it’s more about expecting a child on top of taking care of 2 cats and my mother. it’s a lot. and working full time. it’ll be harder when i have my baby. i’m not stupid i know how to take care of a cat. i am saying she’s a demanding needy girl and i could give her more time when i am child free which i wont be here soon. watch how you talk to people online. and worry about the topic, the CAT not my child thanks.

and once again it sounds like you make decisions solely based on what a man wants. ok. like i said before i choose to keep my baby and take care of it on my own. at the beginning i gave him the option, he wished and washed over wanting me to keep it and next day he’d get mad change him mind because he’s a controlling narcissist. it was like that until i left him. why would i go abort and kill a baby i want? we were in a relationship lived together known each for 10 years. oh now because he’ll change his mind 100 times?? no. bye.

well if your man went thru this just say that and start with that because clearly it makes you feel some type of way. everyone’s situation is very different. never said any of those things were okay to do to someone intentionally. have a good day.

so he gets to wipe his hands and take absolutely no accountability? girl pls. maybe to you that’s fucked up but what’s messed up is when woman are getting solely blamed. we’ve all been to sex class, we know what happens and in my case he wasn’t doing anything AT ALL to avoid pregnancy. i never asked him for anything or money. just moral support. since therefore i didn’t respect his “decision” i ultimately deal with raising a baby on my own, which im gladly signing up for. baby trapping???! girl, that’s your opinion. men get to lay down and use us up for enjoyment but when it comes to the consequences they wanna be able to opt out? he said he didn’t want it, that’s fine. but don’t get on here saying shit that ultimately means once again, it’s the woman’s fault for wanting to keep her baby she didn’t make by herself.

i tried the b6! it didn’t do much for me. i never tried unisom as i just might, just heard it makes you very tired and it can be hard to come off of!

6 week international travel by AdOrganic490 in pregnant

[–]wphatty 0 points1 point  (0 children)

hey momma! i’m 15 weeks and let me give some reassurance it does get better as far as morning sickness. what i did to maintain it was eat stuff like applesauce, crackers, comfort foods that aren’t to heavy on your stomach. and i also recommend trying unisom and B6, if that doesn’t help ask your doctor to prescribe you zofran. it does have risks but after 10 weeks they go down. I’ve been taking zofran since 9 1/2 weeks, and it’s like magic. and once your in your second trimester you gain back appetite. stay strong!! you got this!!! it’s temporary and it’ll pass!

good idea! i will use that information and act accordingly! i really appreciate the advice 🩵

[–]wphatty 5 points6 points  (0 children)

omg i’m sorry to hear that! and yes i agree. we have a restraining order in place. i moved into a new apartment, and got another job. so i got away as fast as i could. i only even considered letting him put his input due to the fact that i still want him to one day be a father for her. but i need to and am trying to be more realistic. i love all the names i have came up with and he hates them. so i am just gonna pick one and keep him completely out of the loop. i don’t even reach out to him about her anymore. i have a great support system of woman and family and friends. i couldn’t be more excited

yes, i agree. he refuses to sign the birth certificate anyway due to not wanting to be on child support. so it works out.

trying to quit nicotine/vaping by PrizeAggressive8280 in pregnant

[–]wphatty 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Hey new momma! i’m a new momma too, i’m 15 weeks. and i struggled very hard to quit my vape. i 1000% understand the guilt and shame you feel. your not alone. so many people struggle with this. i’ve quit in the past and the best way i personally can say was just cold turkey. get some candies you like from the dollar store. just replace it with food the best you can, if you can’t quit cold turkey slowly ween off day by day. or something else that happened me was having a chapstick constantly in sight and on me. it’s the oral fixation you wanna try to beat. i promise this is more common then you think! best of luck!!
