Is there such a thing as pre-partum depression? I am having such a hard time lately. I am consumed with guilt over my house being a disaster and my children being ignored most of the day while I lay on the couch trying not to puke. :-(

7 of the bump ones - I didn't count the Read this First since it was started by us. It's just ridiculous.

With our hormone rollercoaster and just feeling crappy, it's possible. If you're worried, talk to your doctor.

It is a thing. You'll get past this phase of things, but definitely talk to some mama friends who have been there and/or your doctor if you can't shake it. You're doing a great job growing a tiny human! It's hard!

About to go down to our work cafe for my second breakfast and an iced latte. Every morning it's the same. It's 8:45 - I just had breakfast 1 1/2 hours ago!

oceanchild · August 2015

I feel like breakfast is a 4hr event for me the past two days. I just constantly go back and forth and munch to keep away the queasies

skruhmin · August 2015

Did they do the 10 week fruit to give us pooping inspiration since they know some people have issues? Seriously prunes??

I'm right there with you. DH is being really great about it, but I've got to figure out a way to feel better otherwise I'm just going to spiral down until I'm really depressed about being pregnant. I'm really hoping 2nd tri gets better, or the meds Dr is prescribing to help with morning sickness really help.

skruhmin · August 2015

Morning sickness seriously messes with your head. Double blow if you were trying for a long time and then have awful M/S and you almost feel guilty for being depressed about feeling awful.

skruhmin · August 2015

I don't know how much I can tame the sarcasm and snark today. Between being puked on last night and just plain wiped out, I'm on the edge. Is it the weekend yet?

oceanchild · August 2015

Seriously. ^

oceanchild · August 2015

I'm supposed to be in a 5k this wknd (walking) and I'm regretting the decision. I had a dream last night that I missed it and was super disappointed in myself so I don't want to skip it. But I haven't moved off the couch in two weeks. It's going to be ridiculous.

I apologise for this, I saw the dinosaur gif and needed to use it.

oceanchild · August 2015

I love dinosaurs. Always.

skruhmin · August 2015

Hey @oceanchild (and any other parents of older kids), I just bought a ton of these dry erase activity place mats on kid.steals.com hoping and praying to keep my 3 year old engaged at the table. He just gets so bored during meal time and he's obnoxious, not to mention he pretty much refuses to eat. He's fascinated with dinosaurs/sea creatures/animals in general. He always has to keep his fingers and mind busy.

FYI this site is my favorite mom deal site - different deals every day.

I'll just wait lurking for the next morning sickness thread :-)

Thanks @skruhmin! I totally missed my steals noti this morn, and that is absolutely something that would be a lifesaver in this house! Mealtimes are the worst for my 5yo! Ordering

I've learned that you're not going to change someone's mind if they aren't open to education, so I say my peace then I'm done with it. The battle is only worth it if they change their minds. If it gets heated, they won't all of a sudden say, "you were right." Ain't nobody got time for message board fighting. The information is out there and readily available for anyone interested in it.

bntfroggie · August 2015

So this just irritates me why in your question about a topic would you include that the doctor told you not to do it, and then ask us if you should do it anyway?

KimberlyTeresa3 · August 2015

First off I DID NOT SAY I WAS LAZY! I was referring to new people not wanting to read through 100000000 posts about others raging hormones what they can or cannot eat today or other random topics. I didn't even know about a "search" section, so I'm sure they might not either. And Google, that's a horrible idea to tell a first time mom who is nervous about what's going on. Google makes everything seem worse than it actually might be. My point was, some people just want some reassurance, some peace of mind and you all posting how horrible it is to have to read their questions is sad...They have to read all the random stuff they don't care to read...but do. They just want a quick answer, is that so wrong..apparently. Here I thought this was a "welcoming" community, apparently it's not. My mistake. While most of you seem friendly there are some people here that are very stand offish, I did loom around for about a week before I posted on this page reading what others were talking about, laughing, crying, enjoying the stories....But once I did start posting, people were welcoming until they didn't like what I had to say, which I don't agree with 70% of what some other posters say or think, but I don't go out of my way to attack them and call them lazy, which is very rude, you have no clue what I do in my day or what my life is like We're all busy people. I came here to have a place I could vent/interact with other moms because I don't know anyone who is pregnant.

PinkSunglasses16 · August 2015

@kimberlyTeresa3 Who are you?

skruhmin · August 2015

Whatever doctor or expert first thought to tell women they don't need extra calories during first trimester obviously never went through the insane hunger first trimester can bring. It drives me nuts how afraid women are of eating. If you are hungry - truly hungry, your body is trying to tell you to eat and that you need food.
