Happiness Thread *Week of 08/14*

  • @bnsmith85 glad you are ok.   Good instincts and defensive driving skills there!!!  

    My DS is going back to school tomorrow.  That's one of the last milemarkers I have until baby comes.  Time is actually flying by.  I have less than 40 work days until my due date and 56 actual days.  
  • I had my baby shower over the weekend and got a lot of great stuff!!! Makes me happy, now to find places to put everything.

  • @mrskratt That is so awesome! My twin said she doesn't really want kids, but I'm secretly hoping she gets pregnant  :D I know that sounds a little selfish, but I want us to raise babies together dang it! 

    @sportiegrl1213 Congratulations! That is such great news! 

    @bnsmith85 I hope you get back to feeling like your old self again soon! I am thinking about mentioning my feels to my OB next week, I don't know if it's everything that has been going on lately or if it's just me and I'm being a lunatic, but everything either hurts my feelings, pisses me off, or makes my anxiety skyrocket. It's not fair to my family, especially my kids. They don't understand that mom just CAN'T sometimes.
  • Thank you @AllyTheKid!!

  • That's about where I'm at now re: all the feels @AllyTheKid. I asked my bestie her thoughts on starting them back up bc she doesn't take anything if she can help it and she like jumped all over it and agreed that I should so I can get in a better headspace before Ella arrives. 
  • @sportiegrl1213 What fantastic news - congrats to you!!

    @bnsmith85 I suffered with some pretty intense depression in the first tri and my dr. suggested putting me on Wellbutrin. I ended up not getting on it at the time, but kept the prescription in my purse, just in case. She said then that she definitely wanted me to start a month or so before my EDD though, to try to lessen any postpartum issues I may have. You just reminded me that I need to talk about that at my appt tomorrow - I think I may be ready to start!

    and @AllyTheKid It's probably a good idea to mention what you're going through to your OB, just so they can be aware. And I'm sorry you're having to deal with this - it sucks, I know! It's so hard to explain to others what it's like to completely not feel like yourself, especially when you want to. I get so aggravated & frustrated when I cry or my anxiety gets the best of me, mainly because there's not a thing I can do about it and I want nothing more but to feel normal!
  • Thank you @Kaessi!

  • Way to go @NoraAurora! I can't say that I'm surprised based on what I've seen from you here. :)
  • @NoraAurora Bitchiiiiiiiiiin', Congratulations!
  • Congrats @NoraAurora that's really awesome! Can I say I'm proud of you even though I don't really know you IRL?! 
  • @AllyTheKid I agree that this is something you might want to bring up with your OB. I have had a lot of anxiety throughout this pregnancy and my OB doesn't want to prescribe medication now, but I put her on alert for PPD. I also told a couple of good girlfriends who I trust to tell me if I'm being crazy PP. I've been feeling more stable now that things are better between me and DH. Anxiety/depression can also be situational, and we pregnant ladies just feel all those feels a little more deeply. 
  • Congrats! Everyone being bossladies today, I love it
