Pregnancy Tag

Finally, back to posting whatever I want, I am so over caring what the toxic people think of me or my posts. Thank you to everyone who has kept following me through these few breaks I have taken, it means a lot! I did this tag before but then I deleted it, but here it is again.

Pregnancy Tag

-How many weeks are you?

I just had a ultrasound to determine how far along I am for sure, all I am going to say at the moment was that it was not at all what I thought.

-How did you find out?

I took a test because I hadn’t really had a real period for awhile. However, I didn’t think much of it because that was normal where I was on the birth control pill at the time.

-How old were you when you found out?

I was 18 when I found out, which I still am now.

-Was this pregnancy planned or a surprise?

100% a surprise, obviously because I was on birth control. I was not even close to being happy about it either and I’m still not. I didn’t figure I would have another child for quite awhile.

-What was your reactions?

Seeing as I was on birth control I was very shocked and unhappy. No part of me thought it was going to show up positive.

-What was your partner’s reaction?

He was equally as shocked as I was, he was the one who told me to take a test but only so I wouldn’t be paranoid about it.

-How did your families react?

Ha! That’s a good question, not well obviously but I knew that they wouldn’t. My whole family doesn’t know yet, or at least as far as I know. As far as I’m concerned my parents can be upset and I understand that, same goes for my grandparents though not quite as much. For the rest of my family though I don’t care what is thought of me, as long as it doesn’t come out of their mouth to me or anyone else.

-Is this your first baby?

If this isn’t the first post you have read then you know that I have a daughter and son so that would make this my 3rd pregnancy.

-Are you having just one baby or multiples?
Just one, I do know that for sure.

-Do you know the gender?

Definitely not, it is far too early for that yet.

-What gender are you hoping for?

Honestly, I haven’t been thinking about that at all. I don’t really have a preference at the moment. Maybe I will as I slowing become okay with the current situation.

-What symptoms have you been having so far?

Pretty much everything I had been feeling before and around when I found out could all have been things caused by my birth control or anxiety medication. My biggest symptons I would have to say were sore breasts, bloating, a bit of nausea but no vomiting and major fatigue. There were others too they just don’t stick out in my mind as much.

-What is your biggest craving?

Nothing really so far, I have just been frequently going back and forth between zero appetite and large appetite.

-Have you thought of any names?

Same as the gender preference question, I just haven’t gotten to that point yet that I can even begin to think of names.

-Will you have anymore after this baby?

I really am not sure if I will, after I had Logan I knew that I would have another someday. I was just hoping it wouldn’t be so soon. Now though I am really just not sure if I will.

-Have you had an ultrasound yet?

Yes one, it was just to find out how far along I am and see if anything is wrong. The next one will be around 21 weeks. I think everyone gets that halfway through one. I probably one get anymore then that unless it is elective or I was to go over due.

-What have been the best and worst parts so far?

I would have to say the best part out be feeling flutters, the worst would be dealing with the negative from my family over the holidays, especially where it hasn’t really been from my parents.

-Are you nervous for labor and delivery?

It is quite early to be thinking about the end, I am not nervous though for the actual labor and delivery because I had zero complications and it went pretty quick with Chloe and Logan.

-Do you plan to breastfeed?

I breastfed Logan for almost a year, I only breastfed Chloe for about 6 weeks and it was only exclusively breast for the first two weeks because she wouldn’t latch and I couldn’t pump.

-What is your plan for maternity/parental leave?

I’m not even working right now so it is too early to know what I will do about that. It’s possible for me to go back to my job but either way I won’t get paid maternity leave.

Keep an eye out for more pregnancy related posts to come. I have lots for fun post planned for the new year! thanks for reading :)

P.S. to the two people (they know who they are) who have been enjoying stressing my parents out by telling on me to them about information they already know,  I hope this time you think twice, and if you don`t its your call but it would be pretty poor of you to say the least.
