What show did you like to watch as a kid?

does being pregnant make you super horny like some people say

Is insomnia a pregnant thing or is it just you, or both?

gtfo you pathetic larp

What happened?

As a kid I just watched the typical nick cartoons. Kablaam, rockos modern life, ren and stimpy....stiff like that. Those were all my favorites

It differs user
In my pregnancy groups so many other women always say different things.
Some say they dont want their man to touch them while others are more horny than theyve ever been.

Honestly for me my sex drive has been unaffected. It's always been pretty high and is exactly the same

Well both. Insomnia can definitly be a pregnant thing but even before it I always had sleeping issues so it's hard to say what the driving factor is here lol

Nah and I'm not larping. Theres no point

one killed himself, the other overdosed. i just need to talk to anyone and this seemed to be the only thread that wasnt porn spam or ylyl.

Did you want to have kids in your 20's?
If so what made you change your mind.
How different is your life projet now than it was 10 years ago.

Well shit user I'm sorry to hear that. It really sucks because I'm the worst at consoling others and finding good words to say. The only thing I can tell you is to let it out whenever you need to and that I'm sure you were a great friend to your friends. Those sorr of issues are deep and sadly no matter how great of a friend you are sometimes it's just something that you cant prevent. I'm sure if your friends could tell you anything right now they would say thank you for being a friend to them despite their issues

Hope you heal soon user

Your friends if they ever see you from up there, they would probably say, don't do the shit that I did.

No. In my 20s I was pretty much against kids. I really couldnt picture myself having one despite knowing I'd be a great mom. I just always put my financial situation and mental health first and felt it would never be possible.

I met my husband when I was 24 and it wasnt till I was like 28 that babies and marriage started popping up.

Granted yea I wish it could been sooner because I didnt wanna be an old lady mom but the timing felt right.

I told my husband. I need this baby in me before I'm 30. And a month and a half before my 30th I got it lol

But yea 10 years ago was super immature mentally and living with parents and just basically a bum.

While my financial status still sucks I at least have grown more mentally, and have a great partner to help me continue to grow. I just felt secure enough to know that it was time

it just sucks because i had plans for the 4 of us. i cut back on drinking i stopped doing bad drugs but sometimes things are out of my control. thanks for listening

Damn right

So at the age of 28 you realize that you wanted to have kids before your 30's,

That sounds stressful tbh. You had to take a decision fast.

So what was the turning point, an event in particular made you realize that you wanted kinds all of a sudden?

Did you struggle to conceive?
Worst changes? Best changes?
Anything scary medically (like the needle in the belly test) you had to undergo?
Planning on natural/c section/drugs?
Doulas, hypno or anything preparing you?

I'm a few years younger, but in no way ready. I don't trust family because they all say bullshit like it's worth it, I wanna know the nitty gritty. Tell me what it's all like?
Also, is your husband still into sex?

i have over 5000 hours and not a single regret

>>my financial situation still sucks

My family is relatively poor and I like my parents still :3

You can't get pregnant, you're a dude, you faggot.

It really wasnt too stressful. I was always on BC so it was just a matter of coming to a decision to stop it and just keep doing our thing and hope for the best

Honestly it just hit me one day. It made me believe that the whole internal clock is definitly real.
And it's scary how bad it attacks you.

My brain was just basically insulting me everyday it felt like.
I kept telling myself "you're not even a real woman. You're not doo g what your body is MADE to do"

It's weird but I almost felt schizophrenic in that moment. Just a voice telling me that I was a waste of a woman and I ignored it for a while till it just started to really take a toll on my mental health.
Once I came to terms with it I felt better and then I felt even better when my husband told me he was ready to as well.

yeah yeah yeah, "femanon here"
sadly this fucking board is so full of newfags they'll believe you.

>Did you struggle to conceive?
Not really. When I stopped my BC my doctor said it would take about 6 months for my system to go back in order since I was on it for so long and he was exactly right. It was 6 months almost exactly.
The big thing is to not really try. Like we honestly just kept going on and fucking like we were. Our end game wasnt "make a baby" it was just "have fun" and ibtruely believe that helped

>Worst changes? Best changes?
Luckily everything been mild for me so far. Worst change is my nipples lol. They were light and prett short. Now they're kinda dark and long lol. Best change is my hair. Everyone says it looks more full and shiney.

>Anything scary medically (like the needle in the belly test) you had to undergo?
Nothing scary yet! Just been having blood work and ultrasounds done.

>Planning on natural/c section/drugs?
Well I want to go natural. I really donr want a c section but just because I dont want it wont mean I probably cant avoid it if it needs to be done. So I'm just really hoping for no c section.
As for pain medication? I'm going to try to not take anything but I'm kind of a baby so I might cave in lol

>Doulas, hypno or anything preparing you?
Nah. I think some of that stuff isnt necessary. No one I know or in my family didnt need to hire someone to teach them how to prepare themselves. All you need is your partner in the room I believe.
I'm a few years younger, but in no way ready. I don't trust family because they all say bullshit like it's worth it, I wanna know the nitty gritty. Tell me what it's all like?
Also, is your husband still into sex?

Tell you what what's like exactly? Pregnancy?
Well even if I tell you...the experience is so so different for every woman.
I'm one of the lucky ones who never got angry symptoms and even now at 22 weeks I generally feel normal aside from the obvious back and hip pain coming in.

Cont

But I still struggle with feeling the baby nove... like so many moms say it's amazing and blah blah blah but for me it just feels so weird and it makes me feel uneasy...it really feels like you have an alien inside of you squirming around and just making you feel really grossed out.

But it's funny because although I get so grossed out I also get super panicky and stressed if I DONT feel him for a long time. Then I'll be poking my belly and doing all kinds of stuff and begging for him to move. It's a real love hate feeling haha.
Today I felt him hiccuping for the first time and I actually really loved it and it felt so surreal. I never felt a this kind of love for something that I cant even really see yet...its awesome/gross/amazing all in one

My husband is fine with sex still. Though certain posistion have become a struggle

Dude thank you for taking the time to actually respond, that's really really nice. I don't think I can even get pregnant. I stress out a lot and become anovulatory and then bleed for months so I don't know why I'm even asking.

Do you ever feel etsy regretsies and panic because you can't undo it? Does it feel weird when he moves? Any foods he craves/ hates? No pregnancy mask or belly line or big feet?

I wish you a safe and happy pregnancy and delivery. Every woman I've talked to says to be in decent shape and it'll go smooth

Sorry you answered the moving one and I hadn't refreshed

Yea well it's not like I was worried if my son would like me. I just always wanted to give my child what they want without a struggle.
I think I get that trait from my dad. Hes a very "if you cant afford it you dont need it person" which is why we never had pets and he even made my mom Have like 5 abortions because she would get pregnant easily.
He just knew he wasnt in the financial posistion and would make sure he didnt create a bigger burden

So I honestly think I get that from my dad..

I'm not though

Dunno why I'd lie? Been here since 04. I'm a bit too old to lie for no fucking reason to people I dont care about.

How soon would you have liked to have a baby?

I used to think I couldnt get pregnant either really. I just always had health issues and I never took care of my body so I just thought my womb wasnt good enough to house a baby but so far hes doing great!

>Do you ever feel etsy regretsies and panic because you can't undo it?
No but that's because it was all planned. I do get scared sometimes though because I struggle to take care of my own self. I have severe depression and there are days where I cant even shower or get out of bed and I worry if I'll be like that when the baby comes and end up neglecting it but so many people assure me that when the baby comes it really changes you and you'll really do everything to keep that nany healthy and safe. It also helps that I have a great husband who roots for me all the time and it really helps me mentally

>Does it feel weird when he moves?
Ugh yes its beyond weird..
Best way to describe it currently is almost like gas bubbles. You ever get those big burps of gas moving around I your intestines? It literally feels like that. Like i just have constant major gas bubbles moving thru my intestines but its him lol

>Any foods he craves/ hates?
So far I havent had much cravings or aversions. I do like sweets a little more and before I was never a big fan of them.
But honestly he just made me lose my appetite all together. I hardly ever feel hungry. Only recently have I been getting pretty hungry now.

>No pregnancy mask or belly line or big feet?
Nope none of that!

I get it. I have kind of severe C-PTSD and I get mega depressed and hikikomori-ish from it, but you're lucky your husband is wonderful! Mine is much the same.
Ok, so has he gotten any couvade symptoms (even though it's technically disproved a lot of guys still get sympathy cravings and weight gain).
Is he scared, nervous or changing?

If finances werent a worry and i was where i am at now with my husband. I would have liked to be maybe early 20s instead

Oh to add to that "being in good shape" stuff...sure it's great to be but my sister was like 350 pounds when she got pregnant and her pregnancy was fine.

And i was 170 when I got pregnant but I honestly have never eaten healthy. I drank beer and ate fast food all the time and my pregnancy is going great.
Obviously I cut out the beer but I still eat shitty (despite doctors obviously suggesting to eat better) and my boy is growing well and has a strong heartbeat.

The 2 things I do to just make sure hes ok is never missing my prenatal vitamins and I drink more water now.
Still not enough water but its waaaaay more than I ever drank in my life.

A lot of moms actually forget prenatals but I dont BECAUSE I know I eat like shit so for me those vitamins are the only real source for him since I dont eat the right shit naturally

And water is so so important.

Yea I know logically "sympathy symptoms" are a myth but I do think they can be real in sense...like a placebo effect! Like unknowingly drinking non alcoholic beer and getting wasted because you thought it was real beer lol.

So for my husband there are just the tiniest things I feel like hes changed a bit.

Hes gotten nauseous a couple times (never has before) but mostly he has no urge to drink beer anymore.
And I know it's not because hes trying to spare me the torture. I tell him all the time to have a beer because I at least get to smell it but lately he just doesnt want to drink much anymore. Maybe it's because I was his drinking buddy so now it's just no fun for him to drink alone.

And no weight gain. If anything hes actually lost a little!
But it's funny because so have I! My deceased appetite along with the thyroid meds I've taken and helped me lose some weight (thyroid meds are because the baby basically slowed down my thyroid when he came along but the medicine is doing great)

I'm sure hes nervous but he doesnt share that side with me. He has a "I have to be strong for us" mentality. That's how he naturally is but he knows I'm a nervous wreck alone. So to him he believes he has to be the strong one so he can keep me calm.
But obviously I know deep down hes a worry wart like me. Hes just way more optimistic haha

So cute. I wish you and your budding family the best.

Trying to cut this site out, but when I can't sleep I'll see if your thread is up and check in. :3
