I'll start: The numerous people at Target today that had no patience! One lady nearly ran me over bc I was obviously moving too sloly for her while I loaded my infant daughter into the cart, even though I stepped off to the side. Then two separate people moved in front of me while I was coming down an aisle, only to stop and block me from passing. Ugh, I can't take people today!
I don't understand why women are so rude to each other. Being pregnant even newly pregnant is a nervous yet an exciting time. We should be happy and supportive rather than critizing someone for posting a bump photo at 4 weeks. We don't know anyone's back story or how long it took for someone to get pregnant. Let the woman be happy. If you don't like her post skip over it and stop lurking.
@TeaLovingMommy thanks for the support. That was unexpected. I assume ppl are taking photos weekly to document for themselves. I made a photo book and documented everything with my daughter, so I figured I might as well share. There's too many rules here to keep up sometimes.
When do ppl start participating in HDBD? It's my favorite part.
Acid reflux. Seriously? I'm barely even pregnant. How is this real?
Side note: I had horrible acid reflux the last few months I was pregnant with DD and she came out with a ridiculous amount of hair. The nurses kept saying how every time there was a hairy baby the mom had horrible acid reflux. So when I told DH that I was already having it again, he seriously asked me if that meant the baby already had hair.
@acciocoffee this is how I feel but with exhaustion! Why Am I so tired already?! I was The opposite wit my son had sooooo much energy! I will say heartburn was my first sign in the oh I think I'm pregnant symptoms spotting up until my BFP so I feel ya!
@TeaLovingMommy Sometimes people come from other boards where they were rude to others or were not very sensitive to others or didn't follow the guidelines. Then when people call them out instead of apologizing they start drama and leave then pop up on other boards and do the same thing.
As a courtesy some people from their former boards will come over and let people know who they are dealing with. The boards can be super supportive but it can also be cutthroat. Thats why the guidelines are set the way they are.
There are drama llamas on every board and each board will figure out how to deal with them.
Ours just so happened to start on the first day... WTF.
WTF with extreme fatigue and smell aversions already?? I had zero symptoms until week 8 with The Bean, but already the smell of carving pumpkins and Hubby's breakfast sandwiches are making me sick. And today I got hit with that stupid pregnancy tiredness stick. I'm not moving off this couch. Takeout for dinner. It's better than halloween candy, right? My bff says it's God's way of reassuring me that the baby is in there and growing. Uh huh. I'll take obsessively POAS and no symptoms for three weeks, thanks.
I’m going to preface this by saying I love that grandparents are taking care of their grandkids and being active in their lives.
BUT. Wtf. If you have your grandkid at library time and they are acting up. Take care of it. No your kid is not allowed to pull all the surveys and pencils off the table to draw a picture. I know it’s hard, but please don’t let them act this way.
@acciocoffee I had the absolute WORST reflux with my son, like the entire pregnancy. People kept saying it meant he would have lots of hair. Yup, 13 months later the kid is still bald.
@christycalifornia YES I was just telling my DH this! I didn't not have any exhaustion or nausea with DS at all! Now at barely five weeks Istruggle to keep my eyes open and the thought of food, yeah nope!
My wtf today is that I started getting abdominal pain on my right side yesterday and today. During my first pregnancy I got the same pain and was worried it would be an ectopic pregnancy. So I went to the hospital to have them check on it, and they said the baby was fine but my right ovary was leaking?!?!?! They didn't seemed concerned about it but didn't really give me an explanation. The pain eventually went away, but now at the exact same time during this pregnancy I am getting the same pain. No idea why my ovary is leaking or if that's a bad thing
@emsnedds a leaking ovary? Do you think he meant you had a leaking cyst on your ovary? Mild cramping/pain is normal during pregnancy but of course you should alert your doctor if you are concerned...
@dapple88 Thanks for clarifying. That makes sense. I don't understand the whole board hoping thing. Like what's the point? lol Who has that much time to hope around and lurk? lol Thanks for explaining. Still learning things myself. I've never really understood online drama. It seems like a total waste of time and energy.
I need all the energy I can get. I can't believe how exhausted I am already.
Edit, well, because mom brain forgot letters and how to use grammar
