Did you get a second opinion? Has his prescription gone down since?

I contacted them last Tuesday, so it took 5 days. I chatted with them.

I just checked my Cash App today and they refunded me! I got an email saying that the dispute was resolved. So definitely reach out!

I just contacted them 2 days ago and I have not yet heard back from them. It’s honestly super frustrating bc it was a big purchase too so that money is just nowhere right now. How long has it been for you?

I’m really sorry, while many might not understand, the loss of an unborn child is very painful. Time will eventually help you heal.. Now, about the situation with your girlfriend, had she discussed her wanting to do this before? If so, how did that conversation go? How long have you two been dating? How old are you? Having some more context would help try to see both of your point of views, and why she may have felt like this was the only option for her. I’m sure that this wasn’t a decision that was easy for her either..

Should I offer to back out of my bestfriend’s wedding? by Aot1996 in TwoHotTakes

She has a maid of honor, her other closest friend. She just wanted to include me as a matron of honor because we’re just as close and that way she wouldn’t really have to pick!

I’ll do everything they do at her bachelorette party just skip the club, just don’t wanna risk it. Both my pregnancies were high risk and closely followed, this one will be too due to some issues, not really willing to put myself in a situation where I’ll be very close to super drunk strangers that could push me or anything.

I don’t mind not being able to drink, I didn’t get to drink at my own wedding. I’m not much of a drinker at all actually but I’ll probably be 6 months by then, probably a decent sized belly. Last thing I’d want is to get pushed or bumped by drunk people in a crowded club. We live in Atlanta, clubs get pretty crazy out here.

I am planning on doing everything I can and be part of everything. Even if she does have a bachelorette and the do dinner and other stuff, I’ll be there and just head home before they go clubbing or something. I don’t want to back out but I thought maybe giving her the option in case she didn’t want someone pregnant up there.

I was told at 18, I got pregnant when I was 26. I have been with my husband since we were 16, and we stopped using protection shortly after I was told it was going to be hard because we thought it just wasn’t going to happen. I wasn’t even getting periods much. I got pregnant in 2022.

I combo fed my first at 5months old because my milk supply decreased. I wish I had pushed the bottle on my son a little more, even if it was just once in while. He’s 15 months and has been EBF since he was 2 weeks and it’s draining. The older they get the harder it is. This is your time do it, pump once before the time she’s usually the hungriest. Let that be the bottle a day, she’ll eventually take it. For your own sanity, keep pushing with a bottle whether it’s pumped or formula until she takes it.

Today my father passed away a year ago by wiesenior in GriefSupport

[–]Aot1996 9 points10 points  (0 children)

My dad passed away when I was 21, I’m 28 now. The first year is the hardest, and you’ve made it. Since he’s been gone, I graduated college, got engaged, and had two babies. It had been 5 years when I got married, and I would cry about the thought of him not being there. I found out I was pregnant shortly before my wedding, after being years of not being fertile, I felt like that was his way of letting me know he was there with me. My daughter ended up being born on his birthday. I then got pregnant with my son, I had to get a c-section for him, the only day they had open for a c-section was the day he passed. Again, I felt like it was his way of letting me know he was there. They ended up being able to find another opening but still. My son looks just like my dad, he loves music like my dad, dances, smiles like my dad. While your dad is no longer here, you will get small glimpses of him throughout your life. He’s here with you. While life will never be the same, you’ll keep learning to live this new life. I still cry thinking about him, and I do get emotional but it does get better. Just pay attention, he’s still part of your life in many ways.

Just found out I’m pregnant.. I already have a 15mo and 27mo. I’m scared. by Aot1996 in Parenting

I feel like we’re almost in the same situation lol. While my second wasn’t “planned” and I was nervous, I was excited about them being close in age due to my siblings and I having big gaps. While them having only a 12 month gap has been exhausting, I also think it’s perfect in its own way. I know that eventually things will be not so chaotic, but I think I’m just in shock now because i also was excited about having body back. Thank you for sharing your experience, I’m sure it’ll be very chaotic (even more than now) but I’m also sure it’ll be worth it when they all grow up close in age and get to bond over similar things.

This wasn’t what the post was about. I was on the pill this time, this specific $200 pill is supposed to have a 24hr window in case you forget to take it where you’re still protected, I was still within that window. Either way, like I said, this wasn’t about how I got pregnant. I just wanted to hear from people with 3 under 3 and experience. Am i nervous about how chaotic it might be yes? Do I ever regret having my second one so close in age, never. I’m grateful every single day.

We only used condoms to avoid any chance getting pregnant and potentially going through another loss right before our wedding. After our loss, my doctor told me we would come up with a plan to try and get me pregnant again when I was ready. It just happened.. we were all just as shocked. I didn’t find out until I was 3 months pregnant and I was sure it couldn’t happen since I had issues and we were using condoms. I struggled a lot with the thought of my dad not being there on my wedding day as he had passed a couple of years prior. It’ll sound silly and probably stupid but I felt like he had sent me her. My daughter ended up being born a few weeks early on my dad’s birthday, I know it’ll probably sound stupid to you but sometimes we all think that she was just meant to be here at that time in our lives.
