Having a Hard Time With Life Milestones

Currently 28 (F) and lost my mom when I was 17.

About a month away from my due date with my first child, who is a little girl.

I’m having such a hard time without my mom through this. Nobody else gives me the comfort that she would if she were here.

My husband is supportive, excited, and is there for me. I just have hard days sometimes.

His mom came over to see the nursery and i missed out on her reaction to the room I’ve spent so much time working on with my husband. She helped my husband build our new baby swing we got from our baby shower. And I immediately just wanted to cry.

I don’t want her doing anything because it’s not the same. She offered to come help out after baby was born. I told her to give me a couple weeks. I don’t want HER, I want MY MOM.

So now I’m just sitting in the nursery crying because life feels unfair right now. Everyone in my life is so overbearing and she was SO gentle and quiet and calming. I have none of that now.

I hate having a dead parent.

Oh to enjoy sleep again one day

I feel like a kid wrapped in bubble wrap lol
It’s 3:44 AM

I have a pillow for my head, wrist splints on (yes it’s hard to type with them), a pregnancy side sleeper pillow, a pillow under my hip, a pillow between my legs, and a pillow propping up my feet

And yet the hip pain remains, the Charley horses, the wrists are still angry and I still cannot SLEEP

Does any of this carry over after baby is born? Or does sleep go back to normal immediately? And by normal I just mean eliminating the discomfort and pain and swelling.

Also I feel like I’m still squishing my baby girl even sleeping on my side!! Can’t get no peace.

Bad Heartburn Starting At Week 23

What the heck!!! I thought I was in the clear because I’ve had zero heartburn up until this week. Now I get it. It’s SO BAD!!

Luckily TUMS do help and I just sit up for awhile, but oh my gosh did anyone else get late acid reflux 😫

*sigh*

I’m disappointed in so many things. I put in so much time for this series lol just for the following to happen:

- Jaime: character development goes BACKWARDS and this mother fucker takes Brienne of Tarths virginity and then goes running back to his sister to die. Makes Brienne CRY?? Cunt.

- Cersei: Is easily the most evil character and gets the QUICKEST DEATH?? They knew we wanted more!!!!!

- Jon: I don’t understand WHY they need a nights watch with the army of the dead gone and the wall needing rebuilding in the first place. Not the worst ending of the characters but idk I was hoping for more from him.

- Kings Landing: who rebuilt it? Everyone DIED when Dany burnt them all and I doubt her soldiers would have done that without her being the one to order it. Also WHO LIVES THERE TO EVEN RULE?? Is it literally just Dothraki??

- Unsullied: they bitch and moan about Danys death, send Jon away, want to execute and take people prisoner….and then they leave.

- Tormund: Still love the guy and I’m glad he’s with Jon, but it should have been HIM AND BRIENNE!! Stupid. I know there are talking points for both sides but this is me being freshly disappointed.

- North independence: you’re telling me, that no other kingdom would have demanded ALSO being a separate entity from the seven kingdoms ruling??? Yeah fucking right.

Favorite characters after finishing the show:

- Ser Davos

- Jon Snow

- Arya Stark

- The Hound

- Ser Bronn Of Blackwater

Least Favorites after finishing the show:

- Jaime Lannister

- Danaerys Targaryen

- Cersei Lannister

- Joffrey Baratheon

- Ramsey Bolton

EDIT TO ADD SOME FAVORITES I INITIALLY FORGOT TO MENTION:

- Jorah Mormont is AWESOME love him

- Little Miss Mormont killing that giant was dope!!

- I love Tywin, he may be my favorite villain

- Lord Varys deserved better
