Do you feel guilty when you drink coffee?

I drink a small latte 2-3 times a week and I feel bad abt it at time but I’m still working and it gives me a extra boost / something to look forward to

Yes! I did 6 months with no coffee but 3rd trimester has been hard on me and I’m drinking almost every day. I do feel a bit guilty.

I don’t drink coffee but I do have energy drinks every once in a while and earlier in pregnancy several days a week my OB was fiiiine with it. Like completely so I personally don’t feel guilty. Plus I get migraines which caffeine helps with.

Nope! Just decreased the amount a little

Guilty AF I drink coffee atleast 5 days out of the week but my cup is barely 1/4 full and most of the time I don’t finish it so being that the intake is so small I don’t worry. I also drink plenty of water in between , before during after. I’ve tried to quit completely but I guess I’m an addict lol

Nope! I drink 1/2 decaf

I drink a small two ounce cup a morning and my ob said it was totally fine. I quit for three weeks when I first found out but I was WAY too tired, coffee is what kept me going this entire pregnancy. At first I felt bad but after my ob said it was ok, I don’t anymore. I think it’s the amount you drink, not that you drink it. 😊

I drink a cup of coffee everyday. It's okay to have 200 mg of caffeine a day 😊

I drink coffee everyday, 200mg a day is safe for your baby, don’t worry. There’s a book called “Expecting Better” where they bring the studies about a lot of things during pregnancy, and coffee is one of them. If you can ready, it would give you a peace of mind

I switched to 3/4 decaf and it made me feel better and it’s just 1/4 caffeinated

Avatar

Expecting Better was my first pregnancy book, and definitely my favorite. The caffeine bit was really well done

Avatar

that’s nice! I’m glad my Sil gave me this book. As a first time mom it helped me so much to take my own decisions despite all the misinformation people tells you all the time when you’re pregnant! 😍

Friends!

So I see many posts of people saying they are not making friends, people taking forever to answer etc. I’m just wondering could that be the fact that people don’t want to message first? Or they just don’t match on the waves? Or notifications are not coming up?!

Hello 🫶

Looking to make new friends, no matter where you are! Being at home all the time with just a tiny person for company can be lonely so I’m reaching out to see if anyone is out there in the same position - I am also a really good listener so if you need to rant then I’m here! 👋🏼🤍

Deleting app

I’m so ready to delete this app. I don’t think people actually want to gain friendships. I’ve only had little conversations and that’s it. What a bummer 😒

Socialising

I’m due on July 9th, and lately I just don’t feel like myself socially. Before pregnancy, I loved seeing my friends, making plans, going out it used to genuinely excite me. But now… I just don’t have the energy or desire for it.

All I seem to want is to stay at home, be with my partner, and keep things really low-key. I’ve been cancelling plans a lot, and it’s starting to make me feel like a bad friend or like I’m being selfish. I do love my friends, nothing has changed in that sense I just don’t feel up to socialising at all.

I’m also just so exhausted all the time, and part of me worries I’m isolating myself or that something’s wrong with me.

Has anyone else felt like this during pregnancy? Is this normal? I’d really appreciate hearing from anyone who’s gone through something similar 🤍

Today I realized....

Today, while venting (in my head, as I have no friends) I realized that "I like my husband less than I like a stranger"

I may sound mean, and I hadn't meant it that way. (I never said it aloud) but DAMN
"Honey, I like you LESS THAN I like a stranger."
