I am very thankful for this pregnancy. I am 30w2d today. However, I also realized today that I have a bit of depression, it's more than just being tired. I was on anti anxiety meds and depression meds prior to my pregnancies but my OB will not prescribe them in the 3rd trimester. Before my current pregnancy I was pregnant with my rainbow with only a 5 month lapse between. Needless to say, almost 2 years with no meds is something I'm proud of I just know that my feeling "down" and "blah" is not just the pregnancy. I just need words of encouragement as I get through the last part of this pregnancy which has been BRUTAL on my body. I need an attitude of gratitude.
Youre a very strong person. Youre probably going to think "This girl doesnt know me shes just sayin that" but depression takes A LOT out of someone. You were able to beat that and get off the medication AND stay off of it. You were able to beat it. That takes a lot. If you were strong enough to get through it then you are more than capable of doing it now. This pregnancy is probably exhausting and difficult and I know that doesnt make it any easier. Dont disregard your feelings and do not let others try to tell you its "just the hormones". It is very dangerous to brush off depression like that. Its going to take a lot to get through this and i know giving up may seem to be the easy way out but it isn't. Youve got this. You can do this. Youre not alone.
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...
