oh wow yes the boobs! lol i am just into my 8th week and my boobs finally stopped hurting so much, still hurt but not nearly as much as they did the past few weeks. i remember crying a few times after bumping them...so no you are definitely not alone lol but the wonderful benefit is i grew almost a full cup size in like 2 weeks haha never thought i'd ever be wearing a "D" cup hahaha tmi i know, but i'm excited lol i've also noticed they a lot firmer/fuller
Hopefully your MIL will back off a little bit and try to offer advice when you ask for it. Glad to hear you find a great midwife and hope it goes well on your appointment.
BTW I just wanna say thank you so much for talking about ur eye problem. Since I havent said ANYTHING to my subbies about my eye problem until now. Its all because of you girly that I made my eye video :). I love your videos btw <3
WOW I have a eye problem as well. I'm not sure if we have the same eye problem or not since my mom didnt get me any real help for mine :(. I cant see very good out of it when I try to look straight. But I can look straight. It just doesnt feel very good when I do since I start to have blurry vision.. I really think I have the same eye problem as u since everything u said about ur eye sounds like mine. I just made a video about it. U can go watch my vid to see if our eye problems sound alike
Also, people like to feel included, and accomplish this by giving unsolicited advice--especially the grandparents. I understand you need your space, I agree people shouldn't make you feel like you need to do as they say, or that they know better than you because they've had children before, and if you don't listen to them then you're X Y and Z. I guess a good way to not take it so personally is to remember that she's also excited about this, and this is how her excitement is manifested.
Yea, people do try to put their two cents in during a pregnancy, labor or after the birth. I think part of that is because many women are sheep and allow their doctors to call the shots, and don't take charge of their pregnancies and do their own research and make their own decisions, so people try to educate them in hopes that they won't become a statistic. I'm sure your MIL isn't suggesting this because I'd imagine that you HAVE done your homework [aside from the cultured cheese fiasco ;) ]
I have noticed that your right eye (or left if the camera acts like a mirror) does look crossed sometimes but you've never mentioned it so I didn't know how comfortable you were discussing it. :) Good for you, you're so beautiful and I've always admired you for just being yourself. Yay for almost double digits!!
Hey there. I was sent by MamaNatural…I am also expecting in August. I will have my first Drs appt on Feb 3rd to find out my true due date. But right now I am guessing Aug 16th. So excited to follow along with you and being so close to me.
Just wanted to let you know it actually sounds like you do have a lazy eye. Lazy eye is when one or more of you ocular muscles are too long or too short. So it pulls your eye off to one side. There is a surgery that can correct it, along with some exercises. My husband and niece have it, and both had the surgery and you cant tell anymore. :)
@Ashlee3111 I know for a fact it is not lazy eye the eye doctor diagnosed me with a rare eye condition that can not be fixed with treatments. there is a surgery that can be done but its super risky that it may cause me to go blind in that eye. I can move the eye in all directions I just prefer to look one direction cause its easiest for me. :) its more complex and rare than the average lazy eye but iv never known any diff so Im cool with it.
I had a routine scan at 12 weeks and everything was fine and then I had a midwife appointment at 16 weeks and no matter how hard she tried in all different positions and with a few different dopplers she couldn't find the heartbeat. So I had to have a scan to make sure everything was ok! And it was. Problem is that until a lot later on, the baby is so small it could be anywhere and face any direction, so it can be difficult. I hope you hear yours xx
Unsolicited advice...ugh. I just don't know what to do with it... I have someone close to me who does this and I can't be around them for it. Buh! Anyways, Yay for bigger boobs! Cool that you actually eat differently with baby :) I can't tell a difference yet but, I'm sure I will once you are in those double digits ! :D
not sure where your at but stay far away frm apple and grape juice...there are high level of arsnic(spelling?) found in both...just a heads up! Apple cider is fine
Lol! My first pregnancy I felt very emotional and could not stand my younger brother and my second pregnancy was my older brother and this is my third pregnancy I'm so scare to see them LOL! Good luck and enjoy being prego.
lol, I always noticed something with your eyes, but I thought it was a lazy eye....hehehe...Im not laughing at you, just the thought that I thought thats what it was....and it's different...no biggy girl, totally cool :) I have a lazy eye...left one is...u can tell when I take pics that the left eye isn't looking in the same place as the right :( wear glasses some, but not all the time like I should
I had this eye thing when I was little and I would tilt my head. When I held my head straight my vision was blurry or something. I was too little to remember what it felt like, but my mom said I would try to put toys away and miss the box. I had surgery so I don't have it anymore but it was because a muscle in one of my eyes were too tight or something.
I know how you feel with the whole indepedent thing. My MIL isn't super opinionated but she wants to buy us everything. She's always asking, what does he need? And I feel bad cuz I don't want to be unappreciative, but I feel strongly that it is my job to take care of my son's needs. And during pregnancy I got so mad at her cuz she told some people I was pregnant 2 days before I was going to announce when she knew she wasn't supposed to. I was so angry! Gotta love family...
I think having your husband talk to his mom is a good solution. :)
I have never noticed the head/eye thing lol but I guess I'm not observant ;) And I think the pimples is all hormone-related. My sis in law had breakouts w/all her pregnancies.
I found the heartbeat on doppler at 9w4d, which was the first time I tried. It's totally common to not be able to hear it until second trimester though.
It's awesome that you went with your instincts and found a midwife who supports you. It sucks to feel like your health care provider is working against your beliefs, and when you find one who suits you it's a huge relief!
In the start of my pregnancy my boobs hurt SOOO bad! It hurt just to take my bra off. Nothing made them feel better until about 15-16 weeks when the pain just fizzled away! haha, hopefully it happens sooner for you! Also, you should do your belly shot in the same place with the same camera angle every time. At least for the pictures, so that it's easier to see a difference! It'll also look neater if you decide to put all the pictures together at the end! (:
Nice to see you again. You can be so funny talking about your hostile way of thinking now. Just tell everybody around you that you are hostile because of the hormones and at least the half of them should understand it and bite their tongue ;) About the boobs, they are growing vains for the breastfeeding. It hurts i know, just wait for the actual feeding ... ;)
LOL I remember being so bitc*y during the first tri.. I don't think it got any better haha! I had the boob thing too.. I haven't gone without a bra or sports bra in 15 months!
I can completely relate to you . I LOVED my mother in law up until I got pregnant with my first child...and I haven't been able to stand her since. The 'advice' she gave, or just her whole demeanor...really irked me! Hope you won't feel the same...because I'm pregnant with our second and I can't stand her even more.
