I just found out im pregant, im happy and my husband is. I thought I mightn't be able to have another baby so this is a miracle to me. My news of having another baby is darkened by my own mother who is not happy about it. Im married Im almost 26 and I have another little girl and my mom is not happy, its not like im a teenager. Im just really upset right now, how can she not be happy. All I get is your sick, you should have waited. I cant tell anyone about my mom not being happy because they will get mad at her and I dont want that. What can I do?

So happy to hear your good news!

Mothers!!!!! Sometimes, when we cannot love them, we just have to tolerate them :rolleyes: I/m not sure how well you are feeling right now, but if you feel you can cope with another baby, I am sure you can. It's not like you are heading into an unknown experience. I am sure once the baby arrives and she sees all is well she will come around.

Do be sure to maintain good nutrition for the baby if you have not aleady cured all nutritional deficiencies. :)

Congrats!!! And I know about the moms...I had a late miscarriage which has really contributed to my depression lately, and all my mom could say was "Thank God"..I'm sure you're a great mom, and your little girl would probably love a sibling :) I'm happy for you and your husband, and don't let people get you down about it!

Congratulations! Once your mom sees that you are doing well with this pregnancy, she will come around. I'm assuming you don't expect her to be your daycare or help financially. Just normal Grandma stuff. :P

Congratulations!

As long as you and hubby are happy about having another baby, that is all that matters. It is your life, not your mothers.

My son and his wife have three children and plan on having more. My thought is that they should have stopped with two. I would never tell them that. It is their lives and they get to choose the size of their family. And yes, I love my new little granddaughter just as much as I love her older brother and sister.

I agree that once she sets eyes on your baby, she'll fall in with him or her. How could she not?

Congratulations! What a great surprise!

I had no idea that mothers could be so mean to their adult children. My Mom died when I was 14 so I don't get to experience the bad or the good. I hope that there is some good. :)

Congratulations!!

Try to interpret your mom's comments as "I love you and I'm worried about you". You are her baby, and she wants you to be healthy and happy.

Congratulations! What wonderful news!

I have a mother that says the same thing and thinks I'm trying to kill myself with every baby I have..even though the pregnancies are healthy and I was healthy. LIke the previous poster said, she is concerned about you and loves you because you are her baby. Hold off for awhile about discussing details, as much as you would love to tell your mom all about it. Give her time to adjust and I'm sure when she sees the baby she will be happy for you again.

congratulations!

My mother had the same attitude when we started trying 10 years ago. For her, the reaction was worry about our financial stability at the time. You are fortunate to have this baby now and that the two kids will be close together in age. Remind yourself that yes your mom loves you even though she can say stupid things sometimes. Take good care of yourself and eat LOTS.

PS. I just found out I'm expecting for the first time about a week and a half ago, so we are probably due about the same time. I figure March 6th for me.

      Nateral remedies

      By Jmartes71 · Posted

      Hello, I just wanted to share with the frustration of skin issues and seeing dermatologist and medications not working for years, I did my own healing experiment. As of last week I have been taking a drop internally under the tongue of Vetiver and putting on topically on sores Yellow/Pom.I am seeing a extreme difference at a rapid time.Im also noticing my nails a little harder. Ive always been into natural properties because I feel its safer for the body.I know short time, but really seeing a difference. I also feel the the trapped gases that causes bloating helps break down as well.Curious if any body else can benefit from and has tried. Products is made by Doterra by Dr Hill

      Is Caputo gluten free flour really free of gluten?

      Celiac symptoms

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      I agree with @trents, and the rash you described, especially its location and resistance to steroids, sounds highly characteristic of dermatitis herpetiformis, which is the skin manifestation of celiac disease. The severe and prolonged reaction you're describing five days after a small exposure is, while extreme, not unheard of for those with a high sensitivity; the systemic inflammatory response can absolutely last for several days or even weeks, explaining why you still don't feel right. Your plan to avoid a formal gluten challenge is completely understandable given the severity of your reactions, and many choose the same path for their well-being. While experiences with GliadinX (they are a sponsor here) are mixed, some people do report a reduction in the severity of their symptoms when taken with accidental gluten, though it is crucial to remember it is not a cure or a license to eat gluten and its effectiveness can vary from person to person. For now, the absolute best advice is to continue being hyper-vigilant about cross-contamination—buffets are notoriously high-risk, even with good intentions. Connecting with a gastroenterologist and a dermatologist who specialize in celiac disease is essential for navigating diagnosis and management moving forward. Wishing you a swift recovery from this last exposure. If you have DH you will likely also want to avoid iodine, which is common in seafoods and dairy products, as it can exacerbate symptoms in some people. This article may also be helpful as it offers various ways to relieve the itch:

      Kan-101

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      So just to be cautious, there is a big difference between cured, and responding to their medication. I assume you mean that your daughter responded well while taking KAN-101 during the trial, but the drug would not cure celiac disease, but may manage it while you are taking it. Let me know if I got this right.

      Is Caputo gluten free flour really free of gluten?

      By trents · Posted

      Welcome to the forum, @Godfather! "Gluten-free" is not the same as zero gluten. The FDA standard for allowing the food industry to us the gluten-free label on a product is that it cannot exceed 20 ppm of gluten. That is safe for most celiacs but not for the subset of celiacs/gltuen sensitive people who are super sensitive. "Gluten-free" wheat starch products have been processed in such a way to remove enough of the protein gluten to comply with the FDA regulation but usually do retain some gluten and we usually get reports from some people on this forum who fall in the more sensitive range that such products cause them to react. Hope this helps. So, you may just have to experiment for yourself.
