Honestly, the comments about my body really get under my skin. People saying things like, "Oh, you’re just a strong woman, so you won't even show until month seven," or commenting on my build... it's exhausting. And don't even get me started on the constant scrutiny of my stomach. Is it too big? Too small? Is it round? They start guessing if it's a boy or a girl just because my skin isn't clearing up. Just back off, seriously.
And to the next person who asks what I'm going to do with my dog after the baby arrives: you can find my dog tied up on my doorstep the very next morning, complete with a little bow and all the accessories he needs.
What is your problem? Why do you care what I do with my dog when you clearly aren't offering to take him in yourself? :2up::2up:

Yeah. And her sister’s comments about expecting a meeting between the President and the Prime Minister are pretty wild 🤷

We're asking for trouble here 🤣 If we don't end up facing a ban 😁

Anthony Watson35, you're just as much in the line of fire as you are 🙂, so I'll say it: I agree.

Honestly, I’m fed up with that girl and her whole family. It infuriates me that they’ll probably try to hunt down a hundred different scapegoats instead of anyone actually taking personal responsibility. You’ve got this overprotective mother going one way, and the daughter heading in the complete opposite direction. A perfect example of a disaster.
Besides, I just can't wrap my head around this part; a seventeen-year-old girl just hops into the cab of a truck driver she doesn't even know... 🤔
Is it just me, or am I losing my mind here?

It’s honestly so frustrating. According to all those mindless BMI charts, I’ve already hit a weight I shouldn't even be touching at 15 weeks.😠😠😠😠

Rebecca Vaughn7 said:As for me, 😍😍 things finally started shifting at week 13. My upper belly is deflating, but the bottom part is starting to round out... I assume that's normal? 🤷 Up until now, I just looked like a Zeppelin. 😂
And yeah, I have the exact same phobia about the next appointment...

Guys, it looks like my partner and I are actually going to buy an apartment... a great place at a decent price... but I think I still need to talk him into it. The catch is that my parents live in the same building. 😂😂😂

Dammit, I really can't afford any complications right now. If they tell me I need bed rest, I have no idea how we're going to handle the mortgage...😢

(Of course, the whole situation is driving me crazy 😠)

You and I really are two sides of the same coin.😂😂😂

Keeping my fingers crossed for Stancic.😁

Please tell me I'm not the only one dealing with this...

I feel like a balloon about to pop. My stomach looks more like I’m 20 weeks along instead of just 11.🙄 And don't even get me started on the smell—I definitely don't smell like roses right now.😛 Honestly, I'm pretty sure I could inflate a massive bouncy castle at a kid's birthday party just using my own gas.😲 (Sorry to everyone reading this, but seriously, imagine how I feel 🤦).

And the worst part? I can't seem to stop eating.😠

I'm genuinely worried that something won't look right at my next checkup.😢

Oh, and for the record, my partner and I are atheists. We aren't doing a baptism or anything like that.😛 So, what? What's the big deal?

I’m probably going to say something trivial again, but I just need to vent about this frustration.😠😠>

The thing that gets under my skin more than anything else during this whole pregnancy is the realization that my body is changing. I'm dreading the stretch marks and the weight gain.🤦>
To be fair, I've spent my entire life trying to stay thin. After finally hitting my goal weight and getting the look I wanted, now I'm pregnant.😍>
It feels incredibly stupid to think this way because, honestly,
1. I am so incredibly happy to be pregnant—I really am. It radiates from me.😁>
2. I haven't had any physical issues or complications, yet instead of just enjoying the bliss, I'm losing sleep over the idea that my body will expand and never snap back.😲>
3. At the same time, I’m not even doing anything to sabotage myself by eating everything in sight. Quite the opposite, actually.
Please, someone🙂🙂

I’ve been feeling pretty frustrated today because my stomach is acting up.🙄 It’s this constant stinging and cramping—just a general, uncomfortable ache. I keep telling myself it’s probably just a sign the baby is growing, but it’s got me running to the bathroom constantly, checking to make sure there isn't any bleeding. 🤦

It’s driving me crazy that I’m already gaining weight in my first trimester.😠 Honestly, I have no one to blame but myself because I just can't stop snacking.🙄

It also bugs me how everyone around me has already had their babies and finished their business, yet during their own pregnancies, they acted like they were totally incapacitated—you know, the whole "don't pick up a coffee spoon," "don't walk," just lie down and eat routine.😠😠 But now? Now they expect me to serve 60 people at a family gathering just because I'm "strong."🙄

And don't even get me started on how constantly everyone tries to lecture me on what I should be eating.😠😠 Just leave me alone. I'm already eating way too much as it is!

I know it's not the end of the world, but I can't help feeling this frustrated...🙄

I'm just getting started and it’s driving me crazy how hungry I am all the time. I feel like I’m constantly snacking.😢
Once I actually eat, though, I start stressing out, wondering if I'm just packing on the pounds😠 and worrying that I'll end up looking like a total refrigerator by the time I'm full term.🙂🙂
