Mark Lee4 said:So, here comes the mother-in-law advice.
First, she was trying to convince me that drinking beer during pregnancy is actually beneficial for expectant mothers. Now, she’s suggesting that if I run into breastfeeding issues, I should just give the baby cow's milk because that’s what she did for her own kids.
I'm losing my mind 😲

She sounds like a total gem!
Mine is almost exactly the same way;
Back during my first pregnancy, I lived with her, and she was constantly cooking salmon for us because she insisted it was the ultimate superfood. Now, she’s read some headline about mercury levels in seafood, so she gives me this heavy look every single time I even touch a piece of fish.
It’s gotten to the point where I find myself making up excuses to eat fish just so I don't have to deal with the lecture, and then I end up avoiding it entirely just to skip the drama...
Talk about being relentless. 😵

During my first pregnancy, I didn't feel any real fear...
Honestly, I had no idea what to be afraid of.
My only rule was to avoid any heavy lifting or overexertion just in case there was bleeding, so I just took it easy and called it a day...

But then came the second pregnancy, and during a routine checkup, we found out the heartbeat had simply stopped...
Anyone who has lived through that knows exactly what I’m talking about.

Now, with this third pregnancy, I feel like I've learned everything the hard way, and I'm honestly losing my mind a little bit. I'm terrified of everything. Thank God things are fine so far, but the moment I hear even a single bad word about pregnancy complications, I spiral.
I am counting down the days until I can finally give birth and move past this chapter of my life... I can't imagine ever having to face that kind of fear again.

darkcrane14, dear... first off, huge congratulations...
Please don't take this the wrong way, but you really need to dial back the stress levels. I can tell you're running at a hundred miles an hour right now, and honestly, if you keep pushing yourself that hard, you're going to burn out before you even reach the finish line.
Just keep in mind that your emotional state has a direct impact on the baby, both the good and the bad.
You're pregnant, your heart is beating, and the baby is perfectly fine... so just try to breathe, enjoy the moment, and follow whatever your doctor tells you to do.
And maybe stay off the forums for a while 😁

Hey there...
Does hearing actually return to normal after the surgery is over?

So, it exists... alright, then making changes in Richard Flores7 is definitely important to me.

If it matters that much to you, there’s really no reason to delay. 😁 Just reach out to rustydrifter10 about updating things in Richard Flores7. 🙂
