I love how people that haven't gone through pregnancy and the birthing process give advice.
You should exercise more
Take the vitamins even if they make you sicker than a dog
You're not going to make it through labor if can't stand it now because you dont do anything.
Buy such and such lotion it helps with your stretchmarks
All this stuff really gets under my skin...exercise is the last on my mind as it takes all my might to get out of bed and then my sciatica nerve acts up and sends shooing pain down my left leg to the point of tears and getting stuck in whatever position. Its bad enough that I was prescribed Physical Therapy and the prenatal lady is out on medical leave so I dont know when I'll get to see her.
Taking vitamins that I asked my OB about not taking them and he said that they were most beneficial for the first 4to 8 weeks. I took them religiously til about 13 weeks when they made me throw up 15 min. after taking them. Once I have an experience like that I refused to take them. My dr said it was fine and if I throw them up 15 min after taking them exactly how are they helping the baby?? You're not a doctor so shut your face!!! The baby is stealing all my calcium and giving me Osteoporsis. BAHAHA!! Glad you read your health book.
Im not going to make it through labor because I dont do anything now but sit around and sleep. Labor is completely different. Then I wont even have a choice to sit around will I?? HA dont think so. What really makes me mad about this is the person who told me this has never had a child are been around a pregnant lady really.So her unsolicited advice gets under my skin the most! All sparked from a conversation about me getting more hours at work this week than normal and I said its good because I really dont want to get another job with how I feel and how exhausted I get from doing even the tiniest things. I'll just wait til she ends up pregnant and doesn't even like the dad and complains about everything like she normally does. When shes getting ligament pains and whines. I think I'll just laugh. They nearly put me in tears and are rather scary. Throwing up everything you just mmm how pleasant again I think I'll laugh. I know its rude but seriously why say those things to me when you haven't gone through it.
Stretchmark creams. HA what a bunch of bologna!! I already have them from gaining weight. Nothing prevents them. They are genetic. No amount of cream will help these puppies! With the itching yes but with stopping me from getting more nope. Its just not in the plan...They are my lovely marks and will be there til the end.
On to good news
I feel our little girl moving around more and more. Its all on my left side but its so comforting to know that shes there. Today she hasn't stopped moving. Shes in there doing jigs I swear LOL!
