First trimester is so weird

What are your odd first trimester things?
I’ll go first.

Mouth is ALWAYS dry no matter how much water I drink
Black beans gross me out
Raw tomatoes are fine but can’t do cooked tomatoes
Just the thought of any kind of pasta is a no go
Can’t brush any part of my tongue without gagging
Can’t have the same dinner twice

Citalopram in pregnancy

Does anyone know if citalopram is allowed during pregnancy? I’ve been taking it for 3 years now and don’t feel I can stop taking it out of the blue!

Work

Hi. I know we are only really early and have a lot of time but is anyone really nervous about telling their managers/team. I'm new to the team and still training. I feel really guilty that I will be leaving them for 9 months.

Anyone feel like people get resentful when you get pregnant?

So I’m only just over 4 weeks but I’m trying to keep it a secret for as long as possible. This is my 2nd pregnancy but 3rd child as I had twins last time.

Last pregnancy we had some negative comments from people who I know were just projecting and probably hurting in ways but honestly this time I just don’t wanna hear it 😅 it’s a shame people can’t always be happy for others but I guess that’s not how it works 🥹

30 weeks pregnant and sick of “fat” related comments

Hi everyone,

I’m 30 weeks pregnant with my second baby. I somehow looked very pregnant from the get go. I’ve had HG and was losing weight the first 6 weeks, was in an out of hospital and to survive, I was eating bread and crackers every 10 minutes or so. As a result, I’ve gained 23kgs so far. I get comments like “you must ready to pop, are you sure you’re not having twins?”. Today, my butcher told me to “watch my weight as I’m getting quite big”. Even my own mother has told me to “watch my weight and to try and lose weight” which is dangerous. I gained 30kgs with my first and lost it all which took a year so I know this is routine for me but the comments are really upsetting and getting me down.
