I'm so tired of being told
We can't do anything. I get not being able to drink alcohol and coffee. I steer clear of these, anyway. But some pregnancy sites tell you you can't have a hot shower; it must be lukewarm.... Recently I've become afraid to eat ice cream. I mean seriously ICE CREAM!! Bc of all the listeria concerns... Now I hear the they are trying to say ultrasounds cause autism. They should just make a short list of things we CAN do...
You can eat ice cream it has to be store bought not home made same with mayo salad cream coleslaw you can eat most things except fish be careful with fish x
My oldest son is 16. I'm preggo with #6 (well, #7.... This is my rainbow baby!) I craved hot dogs with one, subway ham & cheese with another. With my daughter all I wanted was tuna casserole. And I indulged every craving. I had successful pregnancies, and the kids are all healthy and have no disabilities. I had ultra sounds on a bi-weekly basis (for 5 months!) with my twins and they also turned out just fine! I think a lot of these "restrictions" are a farce.
I'm on baby number 4 and not once was I ever told not to have this or that etc.....I eat whatever I want whenever I want and do my hot baths and showers daily and always have in pregnancy.
I drink diet ginger ale which contains aspertaime. Aspertaime has been linked with heart disease. I don't want to drink regular because of all the sugar, I don't want to get gestational diabetes.
My ds is 2 1/2 and we think he might be autistic. Early childhood intervention tested him and agree. We are waiting on an official diagnosis from a specialist. It takes six months to get in to see them. I religiously avoided anything that could harm him while pregnant. I still stress about everything. I can't take the thought of going through this again. Thank you for sharing.
I'd steer clear of the ice cream they have recalled. Certain things are just crazy. Like sleeping close to your cell phone can cause cancer.
My son is functionally autistic. I did everything I was supposed to be doing and he still has it. They aren't sure what causes it or exactly how to prevent it either.
Ginger ale isn't bad for you though? It doesn't even have caffeine in it. I drink a can everyday to help with my sickness. I dry heave a lot and have a hard time eating. Ginger ale is the only thing that really helps me.
I have been so sick lately, the only thing I can stomach is ginger ale. The baby's father complains (while he is drinking alcohol in front of me), "you should stop drinking the ginger ale it's bad for the baby" - it's like I gave up alcohol, coffee, quit smoking... Now you want me to give up ginger ale too? Enough is enough!
I agree. With my first four it wasn't so bad but it seems in the more recent years they have added more and more things to the list of things pregnant women can't eat or can't do. It's crazy.
What do YOU judge Clearly, no one is a perfect parent nor do we know everything. But what’s something you judge a parent off of or just irks you?
Do Not Post TMI Photos in this group!!! This is a group of ladies that are kind, encouraging, understanding and caring of any problems you may have ttc. You can ask all the questions you want, if this group is capable of answering, we will do so. But this group does not appreciate the TMI photos. We will report them. So if you seriously need to post a picture of your bodily fluids, please do so in another group. We are not trying to be rude we are just trying to keep this group clean and happy.
Baker moms. I just made a practice cake for my daughters birthday in two weeks. Doing an ice cream theme. I was thinking to do the scoop of ice cream I would make a cake ball but as you can see it’s a disaster. Did I add to much icing to it? Would you have a different suggestion?
Locking your doors We are having a discussion on one of my birth boards from my older kids about locking doors and security alarms. There are many of us (me included) who do not lock our doors at home (I actually don't even have a deadbolt on my house and we don't lock it when we leave either), and others who think that's totally weird. So what do you do? Do you lock your doors? Do you think it's weird that people don't?
I find it pretty hilarious how people who have shown their true colors on social media snake away, delete the posts that outed them and come back on social media like nothing happened. Why do that, you outed yourself, so stay out. We still see you boo boo...

I agree but I have had some bad news myself and I do believe no matter what you do what will be will be ? so just do and eat what you want in moderation and be grateful everyday of your pregnancy as you never know what's around the corner ?
