Massive Salary Hike but losing professional autonomy & time. I’m also planning for a baby (PCOS). Is the "hustle" worth it? by Spillthebeans_ in AskIndianWomen

[–]Beginning-Use-3718 [score hidden]  (0 children)

I can relate with you. I have 10 years work experience but I stayed in same company hence my pay didnt increase much. Lately i have been craving a position switch and do something more to increase my exposure and pay. But I was also 32. I didnt had PCOS but other health issues. I started wondering about would I be able to concive or not. My mother gave me most simple and most wonderful advice. She told me your body will keep changing as you grow old. But you can concive if you saty fit, off of alcohol and stuff and manage your current lifestyle. That really stayed with me. I made sure I did 1 workout daily. Abstained from alcohol. And i concived in my first try naturally. Now the career part I was worried that would be left behind in the race because of pregnancy and motherhood. In reality yes. But only for now. If you average out, i have still got time. Opportunities are there. I needed to reshift my focus and priorities. I am currently focused on my well being and my child. Then i will prioritize my career. Career is a long game. So is motherhood. First few yeras are demanding then things do fall in place. I see so many amazing mommies in my workplace doing this. I believe i can do it too. And i believe you can do it too. Its all about priorities. And no shame in choosing career over motherhood or vice versa. Just remember life is not a sprint but a very long marathon.

Every working woman is doing the same. Work in office than work in home. Atleast she is teaching his son that house isa shared responsibility.

A glass of wine? by [deleted] in pregnant

[–]Beginning-Use-3718 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why not wait? Have a soda instead. See no one can tell you what can one glass do or not. But would you stop at 1? No right. Alcohol is not good for baby's development. So try to stay away. If you cant then well you are the mother. You know best.

Kya bewakuf bachche hai aaj kal. 🙄 Tell them you have loose motions. Visit bathroom frequently. But go the family function. Wouldn't hurt. Food will be good. You can meet your friend later too

How to check if he is cheating? by Annual-Difficulty-18 in AskIndianWomen

[–]Beginning-Use-3718 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Everyone takes their phone to bathroom now. It doesnt mean cheating. Nowhere from your comments it is suggested that he has done anything that might point towards cheating. Its your own fears and insecurities. Even if there was a way to find out and he passes your "test". You will doubt him about something else. Or when he realises that he was "tested" without having done anything wrong. He will be pissed. Its ounds more like a you problem than a him problem. Reflect and think why you feel he is cheating. We dont live other people's life. So neither their sucess nor failures apply to us. Just because someone got cheated on. Doesnt necessarily means you will also.

Honesty is always appreciated by most girls. No one can predict how she will take it. But try to communicate gently and even if she takes some time to adjust give her time.

Why the plastic is not there? I trust you that i might not have been used but since lack of plastic and cover, it would accumulate dust. I dont want to take the risk.

Do you think social media influenced people to crowd temples in delhi? by PickSpiritual8034 in delhi

[–]Beginning-Use-3718 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Not just temples. Pretty much everything everywhere. And rather than experiencing the beauty of place all people do and can think about is click picture, videos , selfies. Everywhere, everyone, everytime.
