i think this is all stemming from the fact that all i want is some frozen yogurt. i guess im starting to get grumpy. i'm really missing food now. its not fair when people tell me "all i ate was candy and ice cream"

1st official pregnancy rant
its getting close. and i understand people have opinions and their own experiences. but when i even barely mention my plans for a) a natural birth b) raising our baby c) how and when i go back to work d) how i have to eat now... i have to hear all the negativity. everyone else gets to be an adult and make decisions. why can't i? and now everyone knows why we aren't saying the ideas we have for names for our little girl.

Those people that ate ice cream and candy had HUGE babies (big babies are not always healthy babies) and gained an unhealthy amount of weight.
ReplyDeleteI also hated all the negativity towards our decisions on things. I guess its hard for people to remember that its your life not theirs.
yeah i totally agree. but it would be nice to have some frozen yogurt once in a while. or even a big glass of orange juice! haha
ReplyDeleteI had a huge baby and I didn't eat ice cream or candy - lol...I had a baby so huge everyone asked me if I had GD (gestational diabetes) when I finished getting my post birth cleaning. With that said - I am 100% supportive of you having your baby natural it is an experience worth remembering and being 100% in it and going for it. But, with that said please go in it with an open mind because tho you have a birth plan you main plan should be to keep mom and baby safe. all I ever wanted was a natural birth - instead I had a baby that was 2 weeks over due and tho they didn't think he was 10 lbs they didn't want me to wait to go into labor because he was just going to get bigger. well yeah - he was 11.9 oz at birth and my dr let me labor till I knew the moment it was time. So yes, I had to have medical interventions but not pitocin I had to have a pill and a cream or whatever to help that baby be inspired to get here already. 3 day of being in the hospital trying to coax him out he decided to show up fashionably late to his own birthday party. If I had any other dr they would've made me have a c-section but he let me labor and tho it wasn't 100% natural I had my baby without having to get really scary. I pray tho that when (if it is in Gods plans) I have another baby I get to experience the joys of my water breaking as I am shopping at target.
ReplyDeleteand with GD the big fear isn't how much weight you gain - it's the weight she gains. I am feeling you might have you a 9 lbs of fun my dear. what I enjoyed after I got past 25 weeks that if anything was to happen the closer I got to my due date meant he would be that much more prepared for birth. but I also got crazy cleaning around 37 weeks. I walked miles every day - the day I was due I walked at least 6 miles.
