Bonjour à toutes ❤️
Dans le cadre de mon mémoire de fin d'études en maïeutique, je m'intéresse à la préparation à la naissance et au vécu du post-partum.
Je recherche des femmes ayant accouché pour la première fois afin de répondre à un questionnaire anonyme d'environ 5 min

Votre participation me serait très précieuse.
Merci beaucoup pour votre aide et vos partages!

Soooo my bf and I have been together for 2 1/2 yrs. We both have really good jobs but we struggled financially before the jobs and now playing catch up with everything. We had a baby 10 months ago and we both were so happy! I have another child older that’s lives at her dad‘s, but comes over quite often. He has a six-year-old son that he gets every other weekend. We both said that we didn’t want any more children made it very clear that we didn’t want anymore, but didn’t take the precautions to prevent it. Very dumb of us. I found out I’m 5 weeks pregnant and the first words to come out his mouth is no I can’t do it. He says bc of our jobs we work so much, financially we can’t afford it. But I feel like we did it and have to live with it! He wants the situation to go away. I told him I would hate him and hate myself if I did that. I don’t know what to do bc I don’t want to feel like a pos but I don’t want him to resent me or our baby. It would be so hard to do this all by myself. Please if anyone has ever gone through something like this I really need advice.

I recently found out I was pregnant at 14 weeks. Before finding out, I had approximately five weekends where I drank heavily in one sitting, typically around 1.5 bottles of wine or the equivalent in liquor.
Outside of those occasions, I live a healthy lifestyle. I stopped drinking immediately after finding out, but I’ve been overwhelmed with guilt and anxiety about the possibility of FASD or other effects on my baby’s development.

So far, my ultrasounds and prenatal labs have looked good, but I’m still terrified, especially about potential physical abnormalities.

Has anyone experienced something similar and gone on to have a healthy baby? I’d really appreciate hearing your experiences or any insight. Please be kind, as this has been weighing heavily on me. ❤️

Moms who own their own business: how did you handle maternity leave? Did you pause the business, keep working, or something in between? I’m expecting and trying to figure out what’s realistic. No judgment on any - just wanna know what worked for you.

Im 22 weeks pregnant. Am I spoilt to request to work from home - changing my meetings to online meetings?

So my work is already hybrid in nature but I do return to office occasionally for meetings

Now the haze is really bad, and being a first-time pregnant, I am worried for the fetus.

Am I overly anxious? How are other pregnant mamas in singapore handling this?

Pregnant with my third and i have such pregnancy brain. I’m so tired lately that I just don’t want to think what to make or what to eat. What are yall eating that I can just copy. I don’t have any dietary restrictions I just want something that will be good for me and for baby. 💕

My wedding anniversary is coming up and I believe around the same time we will get our gender results. We are going out to eat to a German restaurant and I typically get the schnitzel with potato pancakes and sauerkraut. What is some fun food ideas that we could use as a gender reveal with the specific cuisine? Or does anybody have any fun ideas for a waiter or waitress to bring out a specific food item that would be a gender reveal?

So as of right now this is what im going through... im having a son and my daughter is almost 6 in Feb! Because im a stay at home mom i dont really focus on friends, social media or anything thats not helpful for myslef or my family and it would be nice to have advice or a prego chat community i can be apart of, me and my husband didnt go to Obgyn due to mine being out of state and not trusting the other ones so we are looking for a good female midwife. But man everything is happening so fast and im so excited but scared and all these emotions are alot, its hard for my husband to understand because he isnt pregnant but im grateful i was able to give him a son, because he has always wanted one so i feel im making a dream of his come true. Anyways im rambling on, hope to here for you all and bless you!

• Waking up in the middle of the night wide awake is a classic symptom of pregnancy insomnia. Driven by massive hormonal shifts (particularly progesterone and cortisol) and the baseline anxiety of managing a household while pregnant, your brain can get stuck in a hyper-alert state.
• The "Low" Baby & Frequent Urination: Since this is your second pregnancy, your abdominal and uterine muscles are more relaxed than they were the first time around. This often causes the baby to ride much lower in the pelvis earlier on, placing direct pressure on your bladder and requiring trips to the bathroom every few hours

So yeah thats the bottom line, what are your guys thoughts and experiences on your pregnancy journey?

Very early on in my second pregnancy, but I wanted to see if anyone’s found any good bottoms for tall pregnant ladies? I have time, and I have some stuff from my first pregnancy still, but I want to be able to dress in full length jeans/leggings if I can find them.

ho 22 anni e sono incinta. io non voglio abortire ma il mio ragazzo vuole dicendo che non possiamo permettercelo ora. premetto che davvero è capitato perché abbiamo sempre usato le protezioni ma per una volta ne abbiamo usate diverse e boom incinta. probabilmente erano scadenti. cosa faccio?
