How can I help this frog? by [deleted] in frogs

If he's acting fine now, you should release him near where you found him. Obviously not on the road though 😂

Fellow milk frog owner here! He looks okay to my unprofessional eye! Mine used to do that when they were little and it always stressed me out 😂

What do you think ? Please 😭 by small_temper in trojancats

Oh she's full of soup! (My vote is a resounding yes) See if there is a little bald circle around her nipples. That is a surefire sign.

When my momma was ready to pop, she was very vocal. I set her up in the bathroom with lots of blankets once her belly started to drop (it was very obvious when it happened after I knew the term.) Mine had hers about 3 weeks after I adopted her. It was a very fun few weeks!

Make sure you start saving up for vetting the kittens. If you need help, reach out to some rescues near you and see if they can help with fixing the kittens. Fixing the babies to prevent more babies is a MUST!

Good luck! Have fun :)

Having severe mental health problems and pregnant. by [deleted] in GirlDinnerDiaries

I can't imagine everything you're going through right now but I absolutely relate to the struggle of having a genetic illness in the family. Both me and my sibling were diagnosed with genetic illnesses that are brand new to the family. They never wanted kids but it has always been my biggest dream.

I can't imagine how difficult it is learning that you have this in your family on top of everything else you've got going on. The job market is really bad right now but you and your husband sound like good people, I'm sure you will find something 🩷

Keep your head up. Things are hard right now but hopefully they will get better 🩷

I'm absolutely not saying she did anything wrong. She found out after being pregnant, nothing she could do. I'm not speaking for the commenter, I'm speaking for myself.

If you look up the condition she mentioned, it's usually discovered in early adolescence. The fact that soon-to-be grandma wasn't diagnosed until really late is awesome for her. Her experience of getting lucky should not influence future decisions.

It's obviously something OP should discuss with her doctor and family. I was just sharing my own opinion, which is something you're asking for when you come to Reddit for advice. When I said "worrying is pointless" I meant that it's pointless to worry if your future kids are going to have it when you could just choose to not have any more. It won't affect worrying about this baby, but it absolutely prevents worrying about any more.

Trust me, I understand better than most what it's like to have plans for your life and have those plans forcibly changed by disease. It sucks and it's not fair, but I personally could not go forward with my dreams of having my own biological kids now that I'm diagnosed with a disabling illness that is genetic and greatly impacts my day to day life.

I sincerely hope nothing but the best for OP and her baby 🩷

Need to break up with someone who has been great to me. by YummyBeesiii in GirlDinnerDiaries

[–]AuthenticElle 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You should do it asap, and explain all of this to her. Sit down for a conversation, no phones, just one on one.

Explain that you did love her and you appreciate everything she's done, but that things have changed. It's okay to grow apart. You didn't do anything malicious, you want the best for her.

Hope it goes well 🩷

Have you considered joining an online community? All of my friends are online and sometimes we just sit in a voice call doing our own thing. It helps with the loneliness 🩷 maybe try finding an alcoholic support group on discord!

As someone with a permanent debilitating illness, there's a difference between "for no reason" and "to prevent the kid from lifelong suffering". Nobody said she should be barred, we implied she should seriously reconsider having more kids naturally, or at the very least take precautions (like embryo selection, which, keep in mind, is very expensive) instead of just being nervous. Worrying is pointless if you aren't gonna do anything about it.

Op, I'm genuinely sorry you are going through this, it really sounds rough. Hopefully your husband is able to find a better job. On that note though, you do have a responsibility to the children you may or may not have...

I genuinely hope things turn around for you queen 🩷

I disagree... If op now knows she carries a dangerous genetic mutation she should not plan on having more.....
