Bored 🥱

Y’all I wanted some time off so bad and I’m sooooo bored. I’m to heavy to move around a bunch, laying down too much is uncomfortable and I’m super bored 😂 pregnancy can be boring when you’re not drowning yourself with work

My doula said to make sure to plan in events that are fun for you.

I'm still working, but if I am off before baby, I will be going swimming during the day and trying to have hangouts with others

I had a patio date with my partner (who’s also named Casey🥰) and that was fun. Now I don’t know what to do with myself and I have the whole week off 😅

You could do some reading on baby stuff, or wash all the clothes and pack hospital bag?

Also if you know any stay at home moms you could meet them for lunch?

I’m going to lunch with a coworker who’s also a mom on Monday so that’ll be fun. What I need to do is learn how to relax before I fuck myself up lol

Haha I love visiting this group! Sending love from the November 2022 group! As a mom of an almost 1 year old I can tell you that when you’ll look back at this time you will miss all this freedom and free time you have right now😂❤️ I am saying this with the best intentions!😂 Here are some things that you should do now because you won’t be able to do them easily once the baby is born
- go to the cinema to watch a movie with your significant other
- go for as many date nights as possible, soon it won’t be months until you’ll be able to go for one
- go out with some girl friends and have a girls night out
- read a book!
-go for some short day trips sightseeing
-watch a movie in full!
These are all things we haven’t been really able to do much since becoming parents so just want to make sure you enjoy them as much as you can now❤️ you will many new joys soon! It’s just that life changes and you will look back at my message one day and say „she was right” 😂😅❤️

I've been off since August 23rd since I am such high risk and still have 3-5 weeks to go I made things and watch a lot of tv

Avatar

fuck then for acting like you’re an inconvenience. I hope you find something better that treats you with the respect you deserve

oh my god it was terrible . i loveddddd working at target up until i got pregnant (might as well expose them lol ) they made everything so difficult for me , it took them 5 weeks to take me off the 4am shift which was all heavy lifting and when they finally did they put me on self checkout where i was trained for less than one day and still on my feet for about 8 hours all by myself , when i finally complained about that i got a shorter shift but since it was only 5 hours i only got a 15 minute break which would’ve been ok if i could use the bathroom as needed but since i couldn’t leave the self checkout area unattended and the people doing the registers were always busy bc there was literally only two of them there was no one to walk over and cover me .

Pregnant with baby 2

Hi everyone! I gave birth via emergency c section 9 months ago as my baby boy was measuring big, he pooped inside so there was risk of him inhaling it and I wasn’t progressing past 3cm to have a natural birth and now I’m currently 20 weeks pregnant with my 2nd baby. I’m having a consultation on Tuesday to talk about birth options and to have any questions answered but I don’t know what to ask. I feel like it would be safer having a c section again but at the same time I don’t want a c section. Does anyone have any question ideas I could ask or any advice/stories of similar situations. Tia

I have a feeling like I might get attacked from this but I’m going to say it anyways. incognito 🥸 GLP1s being mainstream for regular people who are NOT diabetic or morbidly obese is bad for so many reasons 💉💉💉

Side affects, long term dependency, supply shortages and costs, regaining the weight back as soon as you get off them.. all that ASIDE how do people not see just from a zoomed out perspective how crazy it is. I can’t imagine being someone facing food insecurity in an underdeveloped country and watching westerners give themselves daily jabs so they can lose weight while still eating a calorie surplus/ crappy foods. It’s giving hunger games when district 12 Katniss finds out at the party at the capital that people eat and then take a pill to make themselves sick so they can 🤮 and eat some more. These ads running ozempic everywhere are disgusting, and then getting amazing athletes like Serena Williams to push them talking bout “i’ve never been healthier” girl you were an OLYMPIC athlete wym??

Getting pregnant after c section

When did you get pregnant again after a c section? Our plan was always to have 2 under 2 but that is now out the window because I had an emergency section. I know they say 18 months and we will be sticking to it (as much as I don’t want to) but I’m curious how quickly you got pregnant after your section?

Movements

I’m 28 weeks tomorrow. Yesterday I had loads and loads of movements but today I have only felt small flutters and a couple of kicks throughout the day. I get so confused as some people say they don’t have a pattern but others say they do. We have a Doppler so used it this evening and could hear the heartbeat and then moving but does anyone else get quieter days of movement than others? I am seeing my midwife tomorrow so will check but just find myself getting anxious about it and don’t know when to get checked. I know they encourage it but last time as soon as I got to triage baby started moving loads!
