Boston Roadrunner - Thank You

Just wanted to say that the Roadrunner in Boston is incredible. I bought tickets to the show in October and I’ll be 27 weeks pregnant at the show. Husband and I really wanted seats because the thought of standing in one spot all night being right on the cusp of my third trimester is miserable. Sent an email to them and they were setting aside seats in the ADA section which is just incredible.
But yeah - shoutout to accommodating venues

Pellet Stove with a Newborn?

Hi all! I’m sorry if this is the wrong subreddit.
My husband and I are first time parents expecting our little girl in January. We also just bought a house and there’s a pellet stove in the living room. I know high quality green pellets with low ash are the “safest” but I’d still be concerned with operating it with a newborn in the house for fear of exposure. I’ve never had one before so granted I may be overreacting - and I do have air purifiers but if I recall the ash can wear out a HEPA filter very quickly?
Would it be best to just hold off for a year and suck it up with the cost of oil? Or am I being a bit crazy with my critique?

Pellet Stove?

Hi all! I’m sorry if this is the wrong subreddit but I’m trying to avoid the “random” claims and much prefer a scientific approach (as I am an analytical chemist).

Just need some reassurance

Hi all! I’m currently 14w5d pregnant and FINALLY back in the gym after some brutal morning sickness and fatigue. It didn’t click to me to look what I “shouldn’t” do at this point because I have a very small belly. I did some very low weight (60lb) seated back extensions. Felt no pain and didn’t feel like I put any abdominal pressure on my body. But looking into it - it seems like I shouldn’t have done those. Can anyone tell me if they’ve done them and been fine at this point? I know I’m just overreacting but the pregnancy anxiety is awful and it makes me stress myself out. I’m sorry for rambling - but yeah. I know I’m most likely okay but just need some reassurance honestly

Anxiety about first appointment

I’m not sure if this is even asking for advice or just a vent. We have our first appointment Friday and I’ll be 10w+1. Everything this pregnancy has been “normal”. Nausea was bad for a while up until week 8 and then it got fairly manageable. No bleeding, no dizziness, no severe headaches. This is my first pregnancy, my mother had just 1 pregnancy and all went perfectly fine. I’m just starting to have this immense anxiety that something is wrong; like no heartbeat or my NIPT will come back with something gut wrenching. I thought I’d feel more at ease and excited knowing it’s almost here but it’s sent me into a tailspin. Anyways, yeah that’s it. I don’t know what to do at this point.

How does this line progression look? 8 DPO - 12 DPO

I know it’s early still and maybe I’m crazy testing every day but it’s my first pregnancy. I think they look good but I want to see if it seems dark enough to other people!

Also sorry the first one has so much hair trapped under it - it got stuck to my tape

Edit: meant 9 DPO-12 DPO

Pregnant with my first! 8 DPO

I thought I was going crazy for a bit; I didn’t expect a positive, especially on Mother’s Day. Had to make my husband go get a digital because I kept gaslighting myself
