Same, repetitive noises like tapping and ticking drive me nuts.
Congratulations! That’s so exciting!
Well, you’re the perfect mama for them, because you know what it’s like to struggle with a lot of the things they may struggle with. They must have the best advocate ever!im autistic and all 4 of my kids are too i assume this baby prob will be too.
I’m just going to quietly remind you that I am 25 years old and that maybe perhaps you should check my join date
the hyperfixation was WILD in my teens. I’ve had a baby registry for like 5 years. I’m continually updating it as I find newer better products 
I stopped working on the pregnancy binder years ago, but honestly now that I think about it, it would probably be very helpful to gather myself a ton of information in an accessible spot, all in one place. I think I would do it on Google docs these days.

Hm maybe… I really have no idea how to do a blog though, and I feel like I just Google questions as I have them, I don’t follow blogs. But maybe.

Maybe YouTube?
Ugh y’all the pregnancy insomnia is real!! It’s 5:30 and I’ve been up for over an hour and a half. Baby is wigglin’ more which is nice. I’m excited for being able to feel him from the outside so my kids can feel it. Even though I thought my middle kid would be the most interested in this pregnancy, my youngest has really been into it recently. Sadly though he’s told me he is afraid I’m going to die when I give birth
breaks my heart! I was just having an open conversation with my kids about how I’d be having surgery to get baby out and they can’t fathom how I can have a wound that big and not die lol
Of course in the back of my mind I’m like…oh the tragedy if that were to happen *sobbing* I’ve been up tonight anxious about life’s “what ifs…?” Including what if the ultrasound has bad news and then also about my mom (there is literally nothing wrong with her health but anxious minds gonna anxious).
On the plus side hubby got a respectable end of year bonus andI think tomorrow we’re going to try and do something charitable with the kids. I’m thinking have them pick out toys to donate for toys4tots or something like that.

I'm so sorry you are feeling anxious. I know that statistically women dying from childbirth these days is very very rare but statistics never make me feel much better... It's better to just pray and turn to your favourite verses and put your trust there! (I always wish someone would remind me to do this when I'm spiralling, haha!)
That's so nice you are going to do that with your kids. I hope that it makes a lasting impression for them

Gigs I totally started making a blog hahahaha I decided it would be a mix of women’s health from a semi-crunchy perspective and Christian content because that’s a big part of who I am. So I’m working on building a website.
Ah geez I’m sorry about the anxiety, poor kiddo worrying about that. Have you had prior c-sections? I can’t remember but I feel like you have… If so maybe it would help to tell them that they were born that way and you had no issues and the doctors took great care of you.
The toys4tots idea sounds lovely!

I'm cd 3 today... After I got my BFNs I was just wishing that my next cycle would start early so I don't have a red Christmas and I'm happy it came true lol. My husband said he will give it the college try this cycle hahahaha
