Today I cried in the bathroom at work for a half hour because one of the parents picking up asked me if the baby I was holding was mine. I hate this. I'm just going to go out and have sex with strangers every night until I get pregnant because apparently that's the real secret to having kids. Not planning and eating right and taking prenatals religiously. Girls who got pregnant the same time I started ttc are all having their babies, half the people at work are pregnant or just had a baby, and now my coworker who has kids my age just found out that she is pregnant. I literally can't handle my job anymore because every baby I hold, every diaper I change, every booger that gets wiped on my shirt is just another reminder that my body is shit and I'm probably never going to get to have a baby. I'm so tired.
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.
Birth Plan Rant
I used to be all about getting an epidural, but after research and thinking about it more I want to have an unmedicated birth (this is my first baby). What annoys me is when I say that I'm going to TRY my hardest to have a natural and unmedicated birth people always feel the need to say that I'm crazy or that I'm going to change my mind when I get in that position. Or that epidurals are the best. I do realize that plans change, but why can't people be supportive and encouraging?
Hi, I am Nichelle . I just joined. I am 14 weeks and 3 days pregnant with my first baby. I joined because I have nobody to talk to and I would love to have a friend who knows what I'm going through.
so anxious
going to TTC again for the first time this month after a mmc in November and d&c in December. that was my first pregnancy so I'm TERRIFIED I won't get pregnant again or get a sticky bean! We have a really good feeling about it but I don't want to get my hopes up :/. my fertile week starts Sunday and I would give anything to get my rainbow baby! let's hope I get pregnant and it sticks!
Please help!
My doctor is trying to induce me before 40 weeks because she's going to be off on my due date and says my placenta is starting to look old. How do I get labor started?? I don't want to be induced for no reason and I'm thinking I won't have a choice. Please help. What do I do to get things going?
