Plans

I realise we’re still in the newborn bubble but other than looking after your little one - what is or what’s going to be your ‘you time’?
I imagine people will be making time for themselves at the gym

I already kiiiindaaaa miss being pregnant 😭🩷

Enjoy your last few days or weeks of pregnancy if you’re still pregnant! I was in sooooo much pain those final weeks, like you could not have paid me to want to be pregnant any longer- so much false labor, pubic pain, lightning crotch, insomnia, peeing every hour, honestly barely could move at times I just felt like a huge freaking whale. Don’t get me wrong it feels SOOO good to not be pregnant anymore (even tho postpartum is equally as painful, if not more lol postpartum cramps are NO. JOKE. 😅) but gosh I wish I could just have 1 more day with her in my belly! 🥺🩷

i know that this group is mainly for venting but wanted to share a little positivity :) i am so excited for when my lease is up with my ex and can get me and my girly our own place! oh it is gonna be so cutesy just the way i want it 😮‍💨and parenting is gonna be so much more fun when you don’t have a man telling you you’re spoiling a literal toddler with too much love and affection and getting grumpy all the time, feel like i have two of them sometimes

Relate?

Did anyone else have an anterior placenta and now their baby needs to sleep with a comforter covering their face?

Overwhelmed people touching the bump and speculating about baby’s future.

Am I the only one here? Other than the dad of course I’m really feeling uncomfortable with people touching the bump. My MIL and DH’s family do it non stop (they even laugh that some people don’t love it), my baby never moved loads and goes especially quiet when they’re around. I’ve been to triage twice with RFM, so this triggers extra stress.

They also believe he’s going to be small and my bump is ‘all water (I had a scan and neither is true, all avg), and at the same time speculate if he’s going to have short legs, big ears and chubby fingers (ie opposite of me). I couldn’t care less what my baby looks like but all I want to do is protect him from this chaos :(

Sorry for the vent, I cried all night after seeing them yesterday as it’s just getting too much 😥
