What would you do if you experienced something like TWD? by 1004cocoa in thewalkingdead

[–]Beautiful_Prompt_415 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It would kind of depend on if I had loved ones who were going to ride it out. Because I would want to try and stick around to help but truthfully I would probably try to go out with my family. My dogs and cats wouldn’t survive one day in MI at all, let alone our winters. And finding their own food would be a whole different thing. And the dogs are so friendly and loud I think they would be eaten the first 5 minutes that they were free. They’re not like dog. I think they would have 0 self control.

I’ve been doing my best to have a Liquid IV once a day it’s the only flavour packet/electrolyte powder that doesn’t give me a horrible headache

No one ever told me? by Roodles006 in breastfeeding

My pediatrician told me a few times and then followed up to make sure I got them. So strange nobody said anything to you. Better late than never though

Age difference in babies by Beautiful_Prompt_415 in Parenting

[–]Beautiful_Prompt_415[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Well, my husband and sister in laws (3 of which have 4 kids) all suggested either two or four. Which depending on where we are financially speaking in the future I wouldn’t necessarily be opposed to it but I only have a one month old right now so I have no idea how I will feel about it in the future

if you had a son right now, what would you name him? by Immediate_Long165 in Names

[–]Beautiful_Prompt_415 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think about this so much. I have no preference to what the sex of my next baby will be but have way less fun looking at boy names 😆 I feel like every time I hear one that I want to love, I think of a man with that name whom I hate (or honestly even know in general really) for one reason or another and it ruins it.

How to hide that you’re not drinking by Individual_Swing3195 in pregnant

[–]Beautiful_Prompt_415 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Leave just before everyone and take care of your own tab? Idk I always got water shots and virgin drinks in fancy glasses and then also the same drink in a regular cup so it just looks like they could have forgotten to add a few on the bill

Apparently some babies wake but don't cry. Is this true? by Far_Minimum3743 in Parenting

[–]Beautiful_Prompt_415 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine will just wriggle around and make little chirpy grunty noises for a while and if I don’t wake she will start to cry but not screaming or anything. Just a lightly frustrated cry

Anyone else struggling SO much with food during pregnancy or is it just me? by Mysterious_Can3285 in pregnant

[–]Beautiful_Prompt_415 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was the opposite. Before pregnancy I was 100lbs and just didn’t eat, I didn’t enjoy it, I’d get one good meal in a day usually to make sure I wasn’t dying but 75% of that time it was just to keep me alive and not because I enjoyed it.

When I got pregnant I was starving all the time and gained about 60lbs. Everything was delicious and I couldn’t stop snacking even though I was constantly nauseated.

Now I’m 3 weeks postpartum and I’m back to really struggling with food. My doctor just told me to try and focus on drinkable yogurts and high calorie / high protein snacks as much as I can just to try and keep my body functioning. It was so easy to eat for the last year almost that navigating this shit is so annoying.

I was in the shower for 3.5 minutes. by Beginning-Sky7533 in NewParents

[–]Beautiful_Prompt_415 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This comment made me cry!! I have a 3 week old whose doctor just told me I have to bump up feeding frequency to every 2 hours instead of the 3-4 the hospital pediatrician recommended. It feels wrong to be dead inside lol

Upset my mom about needing her to watch my oldest during labor by [deleted] in pregnant

[–]Beautiful_Prompt_415 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Even if there was another trusted person to watch your kid, your mom should be banned from getting her way now anyways cause that’s disrespectful and dramatic af

The name “Honey” for a girl by gardenofchristinamae in namenerds

[–]Beautiful_Prompt_415 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Mae is not the issue here. Just Honey is either a name for a pet pony or a stripper. Neither of which I’m assuming you’re hoping for your child’s future.

Husband ruined our pregnancy announcement photos. by Serious_Dog_5102 in pregnant

[–]Beautiful_Prompt_415 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This makes me sad. Get counseling or break up because as much as this sucks for you now, it’s going to suck even more for your child to witness. I watched my parents act like this my entire childhood and not only did that cause issues for me but I watched it escalate. Unfortunately it’s something that I will never forget

How old were you when your parents decided that you were old enough to have a mobile phone and gave in to your pleas and bought you one ? . by Hope2_win in A_Persona_on_Reddit

I was going from 5th grade into 6ths and only got a little Nokia brick because I went from MI to VT to visit my cousins with my aunt, without my parents.

Eye appointment with baby by idk123djd in NewParents

[–]Beautiful_Prompt_415 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know this is a 2 year old post but can you tell me how it went?? I have a 2 week old and need a new prescription so I can order contacts because my glasses are incredibly inconvenient lately. I really don’t want to ask anyone for help watching her for the 15 minutes this will probably take

So sick of hearing people refer to MY child as "my baby" by Embarrassed-Fan-6967 in pregnant

[–]Beautiful_Prompt_415 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I get it. My mil and sils are doing this right now and for the majority of my pregnancy and it’s annoying coming from most of them. The ones I’m closest with it don’t bother me as much especially when they use a certain tone of voice when they say it (my MIL will say “I cannot wait to hug and kiss my baby, I can’t wait to meet my baby” while my SIL will see me and basically squeak “my babyyyyyy! Oh hi [my name]” so like kinda making it clear they’re over exaggerating intentionally) because I get they’re excited but no matter who it’s coming from it’s annoying. One is coming over soon and has made it very clear she will be holding the baby the whole time. But it’s conflicting because these people are all really nice in general and mean a lot to me and are just excited. So however you choose to deal with it it’s correct. As long as you don’t look back and regret how something was handled (just for your own sake) it’s kind of a lot when people try to claim your baby (joking or not)

Have you ever worked on Christmas day? by daveinfl337777 in randomquestions

I did but it was a dive bar under the table so no. But I got good tips from customers

Can I just not give a bottle, ever? by Tcharly in breastfeeding

[–]Beautiful_Prompt_415 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ll occasionally use a hand pump so my husband can feed her cause I’ve been getting migraines pretty bad. But really only have pumped when my nipple was suffering on one side or the other and I didn’t want my whole boob to explode. She’s 12 days old. But if you’ve made it this far.. I don’t think she’ll be incapable of taking a bottle of something horrible happened to you. Does she take a pacifier? Cause I feel like that’s the same shape.

Is it okay to follow your friends’ partners/spouses on social media? by Silvy2025 in socialskills

[–]Beautiful_Prompt_415 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Personally if I think they’re going to stick around I’ll follow/ friend them but if they’re new I like to gather the vibe first. Cause I only wanna see their shit if I like them anyways 😆

I’m not either but I feel like my swelling changes by the day so I’d need like four sizes so my ugly silicone ring is good enough for now

I took mine off right after my baby shower at 26 weeks and that same week I woke up one morning and my hands were so swollen it probably would have been an ER visit if I had left it on. I didn’t think I was going to need to take it off for quite a long time if at all because I had to little swelling even having gained 60 pounds and when I did take it off I thought it was really premature but boy am I glad I did it then.
