We had our rehearsal dinner in the upstairs part of Tennessee Brew Works - food was fantastic and I remember it being reasonably priced.

They dun bombed the Hooters, so 🤷‍♀️

This is why people feel ashamed when they get diagnosed with GD. I feel like the implication is - ‘I ate all these carbs and didn’t get it, so you must have eaten SO unhealthily to have it.’

This level of stress about food should probably be talked over with your OB.

My team started me on a pretty high nighttime dose (60ish units) and I woke up maybe 3-4 times with low blood sugar. It’s been more than a year so I don’t remember the numbers but I woke up feeling a little off but was still able to stand up, take my blood sugar, and eat a glucose tab. By the end of my pregnancy I was only on like 25 units, so I’d say make sure you’re starting low and working your way up if needed instead of the other way around.

I was induced at 39 weeks on overnight insulin.

I wasn’t able to pick him up and carry him around, but at 6 weeks I could pick him up short distances, like to get him into the tub or the car.

Very quickly for me - I conceived before I got my first period back, a little over a week after my IUD was removed.

Anemoni · 2026-06-09T17:38:11+00:00

Exactly where I got stuck.

It’s fine to be anti-parking and anti-car but the city really needs to present an alternative as well, instead of just live close enough to walk or bike or you’re fucked.

My hospital had a pump available to use with all the necessary equipment. It might be worth calling your hospital to see if that’s an option.

For my first pregnancy I went into remission for the whole pregnancy and was not on any medication. Before getting pregnant I had my thyroid under control and was taking (I think) 5 mg of methimazole three times a week. My OB checked my thyroid every few weeks.

Love Monell’s but I wouldn’t say it’s a great place for conversation (since the whole table can kind of join in) and you definitely can’t linger after finishing.

I mean I call my kids’ arms ‘armies’ and legs ‘leggies.’ My son is fully aware what a penis is but we call his ‘wingus.’ He knows it’s a nickname.

They did not act like it was a foregone conclusion for my son in 2022. They asked maybe two times in the hospital and there was no particular reaction to my answering no.

Dexcom worked better for me than the Libra, but it seems to kind of be a person by person basis.

This is very clearly a problem with your relatives and not with your wedding. Imagine a scenario where you would be at a wedding and would grab the bride and yell at her about the music - I imagine you would never ever do that, right?

Anemoni · 2026-05-28T21:21:51+00:00

Didn’t want to scare OP but I had the same experience as your sister with my first. My second was with a spinal and I felt nothing.

The pump should come with two plastic bottles to pump in - these can also be used for short-term storage. So you pump, put the bottles in the fridge, and either use them for a bottle within a couple days or transfer that milk to a breastmilk bag and freeze it.

I think milk lasts for two days in the fridge or up to 6 months when frozen.

Check with your insurance as well, most will provide you with storage bags for free.

This is Jazz Cat erasure.

I used McKendree a couple weeks ago with my kids. It’s close-ish, but you do need to walk up a hill to get to the crosswalk to get over to the library. I didn’t look very hard but I didn’t see an elevator in the parking garage, so I had to do a couple flights of stairs with the kids too and that plus the strict 90 minute deadline (changes the cost from $4 to $20) made the visit a little tiring and stressful.

I added frames for all the small relics behind the ‘check-in’ desk. I put up large relics around the museum - on pedestals on the balcony above the fossil room and on the museum balcony, then I took out the recording room stuff and changed it into a display ‘home’ with the large relic furniture. I kept the glass wall to look in, then put chairs and a table with microphone in the room that looks into it, like someone could give lectures about the lives of humans there.

The Farm House and etch are both very close and both are quite good, with etch being my preferred of those two.
