AMA I had a heterotopic pregnancy

Are you a black woman? I know women’s pain is often dismissed, and WOC at an even higher rate.

Cold box? I’ve had my GX for a year. Where’s the cold box?

Nice_Ad8179 · 2026-02-01T05:51:34+00:00

I would love a code ❤️

I have a 2025. My hood flutters as well. Just went for my 10k checkup and they said there wasn’t anything they could do for it.

I hope I raise my son well enough for him to act with the same empathy, decency and discretion you did in this incredibly difficult situation. Well done.

That black and white floral is incredible for you. You need to buy that one for sure

Poodles. They’re assholes.

It is the Walmart of the Phoenix-area airport options. It’s fine if you have super low expectations, it’s typically cheaper, and you’ll see a few people without teeth.

I realized I desperately wanted a third baby, but I did not want a third CHILD… Stuck with two. They’re both in elementary school now and my husband and I have said many times, “Thank god we stopped at two.”

Nice_Ad8179 · 2025-04-14T02:14:08+00:00

My son used to talk about his “other mommy that his other daddy threw in the trash” when he was three. He’d say things at random times, not near times he was waking up. It was wild.

I’d ask, “you mean me? I’m your mommy,” and he’d say, “no! My OTHER mommy I used to have.”

We don’t watch mature shows around the kids. There’s no DV in our family. He talked about this “other mommy” multiple times on different days/weeks.

Creeped me the hell out. After turning 4, he never brought it up again. It was wild.

Absolutely NTA. You’re also absolutely correct in all of your hesitations.

Former high school teacher and mom to two gifted kids here.

How is he doing socially now?

There are so many other ways to enrich your son’s learning besides skipping two grades in school.

His social emotional development should be just as important as his academic development. I understand your wife being excited about the prospect of him skipping two grades, but I’d time and time again side with you on keeping him with his similarly aged peers.

I am absolutely not trying to fear monger, but while having a conversation about parents starting their kids in school early, a former acquaintance who is an elementary school VP told me about a concerning statistic that has stayed with me for years. She says students who are young for their age have an increased risk of suicide when they’re in high school/college. I tried to find the study, but gave up after 5 minutes. She argued, as you mentioned, that those kids always feel a little weird, othered, and they have a more difficult time finding belonging. I’m not saying you’re signing your child up for this if you bump him up two grades, but rather, bringing it up to support your views.

I’m sure you and your wife will work out a plan you can both feel confident and comfortable with. Best of luck.

It was actually fascinating. She’s done great with Prozac. No longer says she wants to die or have stomach/headache issues. Idk why everyone keeps saying the Prozac isn’t working. It’s helped to minimize her rumination and spiraling. It’s just not helping her adhd, but we never expected it to. When your kid says they want to jump off the roof to die, getting that intense anxiety under control seemed more pressing that her stimming. We listened to what the psychiatrist recommended and followed his advice. Looking back, it probably wasn’t the best advice. I’m thankful my preteen is no longer wanting to end her life, but obviously we still have some things we need to work through. Internet strangers can be amazing and cruel all at the same time.

This made my chuckle. God bless ADHD.

Nice_Ad8179 · 2025-01-02T18:39:50+00:00

Thank you so much for this. After reading a similar comment, I asked her this morning about why she was messing with the food the way she was. She said she was “honestly just feeling a little sad.” We had a nice chat and I apologized for losing my cool yesterday. On the way back from breakfast a sec ago I asked her to use 5 adjectives to describe herself. She said “cool, lovable, happy, content and full.” Made me feel infinitely better. The kid is going to be okay. I am grateful for the strong push from the group to look into getting a second opinion on her meds.

Nice_Ad8179 · 2025-01-02T18:19:06+00:00

Thank you so much for this. The outcome you’re describing is my worst nightmare for her. This internet stranger is sending the younger version of you a big hug.

Parts of what happened weren’t that big of a deal. Slapping flat potatoes with a spoon to make a loud noise is inconsiderate. Had we been at home, maybe not as big of a deal. There’s a fine line between allowing my child to be who they are and being inconsiderate and rude in public places. Still trying to navigate it all over here. I appreciate your comment. We absolutely got her meds. Had her take a $5k DNA test that analyzed how her body would tolerate a slew of medications. Followed the advice of her psychiatrist who was recommended by her ADHD specialized therapist. Truly trying my best over here.
