Have you been a bridesmaid where the bride has crazy rules that make you think “let me re read that because obviously I read it incorrectly 4 times”

A good example of a crazy ask: I will not intentionally fall pregnant before the wedding. (Pregnancy under five months will not be excused from attending wedding events). Another: no tattoos. You need to permanently remove it or pay for a professional to cover it properly. Another: start working out until the day ...

I have a confession

I am a POC & I have not been taking my baby aspirin pills (my body could only tolerate but so much, so I prioritized prenatal vits) . I wonder if it’s too late to lower the chances of preeclampsia. I’m 29 weeks in a few days. My pelvic area is crazy in pain !!!!!!!

Pressure feelings

Today, for a fair few hours, I’ve had a strange feeling that I can only explain as pressure on my cervix? Possibly? This is my first pregnancy so unsure if that’s right. I’m only 17 weeks. This isn’t a pain, just pressure and uncomfortable. Is it something I need to worry about?
