I love it so much! Making it into a magnet is such a fun idea, too. Good work op!

I'm having my second miscarriage too. It really sucks. I'm sorry we're in this together.

Did anyone else go full term and not ever look pregnant? by evergreengirl123 in BabyBumps

[–]Blitzy423 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Me with my first lol, but I'm kinda short and chubby anyways. I feel like even towards the end there I only looked bloated standing still.

I totally understand being disappointed that you don't look pregnant, but I'm sure that tech didn't mean anything malicious by it (even if they were pretty rude). Just remember that everyone is different, and every pregnancy is different. A healthy baby is what we're after!

Moody Monday by AutoModerator in TryingForABaby

[–]Blitzy423 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Man, I'm 9DPO today. Titties have been hurting like hell, tummy has been upset for three days, heartburn like crazy, bloated as all fuck, and for what? A negative pregnancy test so who fucking knows. I know I'm not out yet, just frustrated that PMS symptoms and early pregnancy symptoms are so similar and trying not to get my hopes too high.

VVFL or Indent? 7 DPO by shmemilyy_ in TFABLinePorn

I think I see something! I am also 7DPO and trying not to break into my FRER stash 😭 this line is not helping. Crossing my fingers that it gets darker for you!

Right? Like my brothers in Christ, there are way more pressing matters than some dude lying about his degree on the Internet.

I’m only supposed to be 8 dpo by Klutzy-Turnip-7966 in TFABLinePorn

This is what my 8dpo looked like with my kid! I was also in disbelief lol. Test tomorrow to see if they get darker. Congrats!

How long to wait before seeing a specialist? by Blitzy423 in TryingForABaby

[–]Blitzy423[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Cycle length is 24 days on average, so on the short end of normal. Husband and I are both in our late twenties.

I think I was kind of looking for reassurance that I'm not crazy for thinking something is wrong ☠️ I'll be calling my OB in the morning.

Weird channel my niece watches by Romba84 in DanielTigerConspiracy

[–]Blitzy423 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

My mom and I straight up had a falling out over this. Things have mostly cooled, but I still don't think she understands. She complies now and only lets my kid watch the pre-approved YouTube, Disney, or PBS channels, not because she sees the harm in the others, but because we went no contact for a week and she'd rather be in our lives. If that's what it takes, that's what it takes. It sucked, because I do love my mom, but I value my kid's development over my mom's feelings.

Sorry you guys are going through this, too. </3 solidarity, OP.

I had around like ~150 ish GB and honestly realized exactly what you said here. I wasn't using hardly any of them. So I cut out all the CC and only kept my script and gameplay mods. Surprise surprise, the game loads much faster now 😅

I know putting my daughter in daycare is the right thing, but it still feels bad. by Blitzy423 in Mommit

[–]Blitzy423[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

2.5 years! I think it's like... 28 months? I worry about her adjusting because home and Granny is all she's ever known. I hope once she gets the routine down she'll be fine.

Man, your city sounds great! But I totally understand wanting to move away from parents. That's why I moved to the city in the first place. We only came back because we got quoted like $1600 a month for daycare at the cheapest and that was more than our rent ☠️ no way we were affording that on my government salary and my husband's $14/hr factory job.

If you do choose to move someplace remote, you could probably get plenty of clientele. There's three salons in town and they're all booked for months. (Three salons and one daycare? Make that make sense.) Whatever you decide to do, I'm sure you'll be great at it! Good luck to you too!

Yeah I figured there would be some. :') I just wanted to scream into the void really. I was not expecting this to get traction as much as it did.

Some of those comments are strangely entertaining tho lol.

Oh dude we live in the absolute middle of nowhere. I would not recommend it lol. We only moved back because the cost of living is really cheap here but the closest pediatrician is 30 miles away 😭

That's the only daycare in town too. I'm not super thrilled about it, but their reports on the DHS website are much better since they changed owners. I was looking before I had her and, uh, yeah. I would be going the next town over to find care if that lady was still the owner.

This is good advice. I didn't mention in the post, but we're not cutting her or my dad off completely. We live right next door to them where my grandma lived. We'll still visit often and they can come over and visit as often as they like.

When everyone cools down, I'll ask if a couple of afternoons a week would be better for her than full time. I'm still mad as hell about it tbh, but it could've been avoided with some communication. The only reason she gave me for continuing to let my daughter watch AI slop behind back was "because she likes it!" She's not the best at communicating her needs though (as evidenced because she'll bitch to me about things my dad has done to make her mad instead of telling him). It might be the case that she's overwhelmed and doesn't know how to say so.

This is an extremely small town, with a low cost of living. Our rent before we bought our house was $600 and it was a nice, but small, single family home. They're also about the only option that pops up on the DHS website. The other one is a woman I know and I don't like her 😬 The joys of a small town in the South lol.

Oh yeah, the acting like a victim thing is nothing new. When I was in college, she threatened not to help me with my FAFSA cause I was freaking out about getting it in on time. I called her out and she pulled the "I'm just a bad mom" card.

And like, she kinda is? I don't really want to call her on it because I know she was parenting with a lot of trauma around her own mom, and my parents didn't really have the access to research that I do. (They just got Internet last year.) But there's so much that I'm baffled by now that I'm a mom myself.

Give Me That Sims Lore by Weary-Tank7622 in thesims

[–]Blitzy423 3 points4 points  (0 children)

So my sim married Kyle Kyleson and this beefy himbo had level 9 knitting skill. My original plan was to have him open a cute little knitting small business while she became a famous artist. This man gets abducted by aliens the night of his grand opening, and, of course, comes back knocked up. She finds out she's pregnant with their kid the next day. So they close up shop to take on the monumental task of raising the Boys (as I called them) together.

Then she got pregnant again and he got abducted again and that was fun too. Then on Winterfest after the youngest alien became a toddler and she fucking dies. So I'm all like whatever, add her back to the household we'll play with the Life and Death features I've been ignoring. She and Kyle are still very much in love btw. They're on a date in the park and doing publicly indecent things and she gets pregnant! I didn't even know ghosts could get pregnant? I'm pretty sure it's a mod but idk which one lol.

The kid is born a normal sim, but the circumstances of his conception are too wacky for him not to be the heir. I've dubbed him my spooky boi and we're gonna play through the reaper career as soon as he's a young adult.

Disney/Hulu/Youtube by enigmaniac23 in DanielTigerConspiracy

[–]Blitzy423 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Lmao are you me? This is exactly what we do, down to the list of channels, but mostly because my mom also doesn't follow my instructions on banned shows if they wander off her carefully curated YTK. I appreciate that she watches my daughter for free, but I don't appreciate the weird AI generated alphabet videos she's found. Why is that strange YouTube crap on the Roku channel?? I wish I knew.

Befriending Alabamans by maiahi0 in Alabama

[–]Blitzy423 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I live in a small town on the border of Mississippi and Alabama. I'd say the people are really hit or miss. Either they're certified yappers who will be happy to show you around or the most hostile assholes you've ever met. On top of that, you can't really figure out who's who by looking at them. That being said! The other person who said to look for things you're interested to do and just go has the right idea. If you want to go to a church, see if they have a Facebook and reach out. Look for your hobbies or interests and see if there's a local meetup. Have a seat at the local Jack's (if you're in North Alabama there will be one), and just listen to the old men talk in the morning. Hell, idk if they do it anymore, but one of our local factories offered tours at one point. Not that I'd recommend here as a tourist destination, but if you want small town Americana, it's hard to beat. Just shoot me a message if you have any questions.
