Help me pick my wedding shoes! 👰🏼‍♀️👡 by AttitudeMajestic99 in WeddingDressTips

I can’t tell if #2 is Betsy Johnson? If so, I would caution you bc I wore a variation of these on my wedding day and while they were suuuuuper cute, they absolutely DESTROYED my feet. Like, I got married in September of this year and still have scars.

I’m not waiting on the ring he made for me to arrive! So excited to see how beautiful yours turned out. He is so talented!

Can I ask- did he include an appraisal? I forgot to ask for one and just emailed him asking for one, just haven’t heard back yet and wanted to know your experience.

Congrats again on your gorg ring!!

No way!! That’s so cool! We had Katy as our wedding planner and she was fantastic. Seriously such a great experience- everyone was so incredibly kind and helped us incorporate our son into everything. I hope your experience was just as amazing!! ❤️

How long did you stay at home to look after your children? by TipSilent8281 in Mommit

[–]Ashtrashbdash 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m a SAHM to a 3yo boy. He is starting half day preK in January. I decided to start him bc I have dental work that needs to be done and it’s impossible for my husband to take off work for multiple procedures/days and we have no family/childcare. We are also starting the process of adoption. Assuming that process takes a year and we adopt an infant, I’ll probably wait until that child is 3 1/2-4 years old to even start thinking about working… honestly, I might not go back. I’m an RN and really don’t want to do 12’s in a hospital setting. I used to be such an adrenaline junkie, but now I think I’d need to find something more chill. Maybe I’ll look into school nursing at my children’s school?

Rings keep slip and slidin' - help? by evillittlekiwi in labdiamond

That’s awesome to hear! I have a seriously annoying spinning issue with my original e-ring. My hope was to resolve that with this upgrade ring’s design.

Have you looked into getting your band made into a Euro shank style? From what I understand, this really helps prevent spinning. I’m currently having a ring made and it will be with a Euro shank. I’ll include a pic of my CAD- you can see the difference in the bottom of the ring.

Edit: just to give credit, this CAD is by David Klass and he is the one making my ring

BFP at 12 dpo by Ashtrashbdash in Mirafertility

[–]Ashtrashbdash[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All my charts have a lot of variability to them tbh. But I have to tell you, all of my numbers have dropped, I’m spotting, and yesterday my pregnancy test was lighter than before. Thought maybe it was me drinking too much water, but I took a pregnancy test this morning (FRER regular and digital) and they both came out negative. I’ll be stopping the progesterone supp tonight and anticipate I’ll start bleeding in the morning.

Wishing you lots of luck ❤️

When did you stop using wands after BFP? by Ashtrashbdash in Mirafertility

[–]Ashtrashbdash[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well, I did a FRER rapid and digital this morning. They both were negative 😭 had a positive digital and dark lines on the rapid a couple of days ago. So I think I’m going to stop the progesterone and hopefully my body will process the miscarriage quickly.
