Been swelling super bad! Had to buy shoes in a bigger size because my feet are huge. And had to take off my wedding rings because they were cutting off the circulation on my finger. 😭 I've been drinking tons of lemon water and keep my feet elevated when I can (job permitting) and sleeping with them elevated. Swelling still doesn't go down any. I guess I'm gonna have to tough it out these last few weeks. 😩 What worked for you mommies??
I take hand towels and get them wet then freeze them and wrap my legs and feet in them. it helps a lot. If you're swelling that bad you should definitely talk to your doctor!
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
Short Luteal Phase?
I've just started temping because I believe that the reason I haven't had a BFP yet, after 20 months, is because I believe I may have a Luteal Phase Defect.
Transgender children
So I just learned that in my kids school district (my kids aren't in school yet my oldest will be starting kindergarten next September) there are twin boys who identify as girls. They are 5 years old. What's your opinions on this matter given they are 5!!! I don't believe that at that age they really understand the whole thing. So the entire school had to take a course on how to handle transgender children. For example they can't say girls go this or boys do that. What are...
Science!
My friend posted this on facebook last night and said her kids were asleep within minutes. It's a song that scientists created to help people fall asleep. I was skeptical but I thought what the hay, I'll try it out. I didn't bank on Dh falling asleep, but both him and lo were asleep by minute 2. And lo slept six straight hours. ?
Starting TWW. Anyone else?
I had a stillborn daughter at 38 weeks this passed Nov. This is my second month ttc. (Last month we only tried for like two weeks though). My last and only pregnancy, I got pregnant the first month of ttc so I hope it's quick this time again.
Ask your doctor if there's anything to help it, especially if you're retaining water, and not anything else that could be going on. I was lucky to only swell bad a few times, and I hope it goes away for you, I can only imagine how sucky that is.
