Difficulty sleeping

How are you all coping??

34 weeks and I haven't had a good night's sleep in a week.

I'm exhausted but so uncomfortable that I can't sleep.

Then Im a zombie throughout the day at work.

If I lay on my left my chest is tight. My right I'm in pain. I can't lay on my back either.

The when I finally fall asleep I need to go pee and the process starts all over again. Im peeing. 4 or 5 times a night to.

I'm starting to get bags around my eyes.

This was 6 weeks Post Partum on my first girls trip, although I looked the part it didn’t feel the same. Thought of leaving my baby girl and the sleep deprivation.

Felt like going into back hibernation 😭

Navigating politics as a mother

Has anyone really struggled meeting mum friends because of political concerns? I have always been very left wing ( pro palestine , supporting trans/gay rights , anti racism) and even more so after having a baby because I feel like i’m even more passionate to have a kind world for our children . I get a little worried when i meet other mums at baby groups that i’ll find out they’re actually right wing or against a lot of the morals i hold and i wouldn’t be able to keep that around my child . Not sure if it’s normal to feel so strongly about politics around my baby.
But also if it makes me uncomfortable then that’s also an issue i guess ?

VACCINATIONS

Is anyone’s baby not having their jabs? Or does anyone know anyone who has made the decision not to?
Unsure whether to take her.. unsure whether I trust them.

"Fart Corner" in your child's classroom?

How do you feel about a "Fart Corner" or "Gas Station" in your child's classroom, a designated corner of the room where students are expected to go fart in when they need to and use air freshener afterwards?

FIL gave baby a bottle cap to play with

My FIL came over and was drinking bottled water, the kind with a cap and as he was holding the cap my baby walked over to him and wanted to take it out of his hand. FIL goes “here you can play with it!” and hands the cap to my baby. WTF are these old folks smoking?!!! Thankfully my husband swooped in at the right time and said “no we do not play with those” and took it away but jeez lol
