Hi mommies, when did you first get obvious pregnancy symptoms? Signs like nausea, weird tastebuds, strong sense of smell etc.
I’m 6weeks into IVF pregnancy, I feel nothing much except for mild sore nips and a-bit of cramps now and then.
I had more random signs a week back so I’m kinda worried. Those signs include vivid dreams, random strong sense of smell, back and joint aches. They didn’t last though, more like an on and off thing.
I’ll be frank that I don’t feel pregnant at all now my tastebuds got zero changes and I still love my coffee.

My heartbeat scan is next week on the 13th May, I’m just hoping all is well.

Hi guys. I want to rant about my (embarrassing)hubby.

I’m 30f, just got pregnant after so long. I’ll be truthful, I’m not a kid person, neither is my hubby(K). But K feels having a kid is a must in marriage so ok just thought I’ll fulfil my wife duties by giving us a kid and thought we will turn into loving parents after our kiddo is born.

Had casual chat last night with MIL over caring for the kid as both me and K will be working then. She suggests helping us to look after till kiddo is 3 years old. K voice out he expects her to look after him till 6 and we will just pop by to visit after work. I feel annoyed instantly. I ask him wth is with your suggestion? Like hello I went through so much, (surgeries etc) for this pregnancy, baby haven’t come out and you cannot wait to kick him aside? He say we don’t need to sleep at night? If kid cry whole night, how we work next day? I feel damn turn off. Is it even normal to have this mindset before the kid comes out.

My friends everyday flex how “good” their husbands are in caring for the kid all but here is mine, wanting to kick the kid aside and bear no responsibility in looking after. Clown husband of mine make me not look forward to having kid already. I’m filled with regrets getting pregnant, should have seen this coming from a man who is not interested in having kids but just think of this as a ‘need’ in a marriage. Anyway how he gotten this mindset is because this is how it works with our families in the past- we were staying with our grandparents while our parents go to work, and they visit us when they free. But for some reason I hear already damn irritated like he just can’t wait to stay away from the kid and responsibilities.

Before my pregnancy we had initial plans of getting a helper. At least my kid will still be living with us right? What ridiculous suggestion to completely get my kid away to my MIL place for 6 years. Talk so cheap he ownself give birth next time la. Kao.

Also to add on, not everyone is born ready to have kids. Sure there are some who LOVE kids so much. That doesn’t mean we HATE kids and will not love our own. We just don’t know what to feel yet. No one around me actually really likes kids until their own kid is born, it changes things.
