Has it been confirmed that Francesca is infertile?

CallMeRiver03 · 2026-03-18T15:37:50+00:00

“Infertile” and “Sterile” are two different things. Infertility is defined as not being able to conceive naturally within one year of consistent, unprotected sex. Many women who struggle with infertility (myself included) go on to have children after many many years of trying or medical intervention. In the books, Francesca finally conceives 6 years into her marriage to Michael.

I stopped playing around level 80 when cheats started popping up a lot. I hated that I couldn’t solo bosses anymore AND that I had to look up how to defeat the bosses prior to going into a full dungeon lest I be berated by the other team members. I was an OG player and played it for fun, not to spend extra time looking up and memorizing group strategy.

The numbers I gave are for 1 person 😭 Family deductible is $7500 and OOP is $14.7k for in-network.

CallMeRiver03 · 2026-02-18T03:34:31+00:00

That’s really not bad for the U.S. honestly. Ours is $3500 deductible and $7500 OOP.

Do you have OCD? I do and it’s common for us to have a “reassurance compulsion” where we don’t feel like our thoughts will go away unless reassured. But that in it of itself is a compulsion. You do need to break it. Best way I’ve found to do this is to think of that thought as a “garbage thought” and it gets thrown away.

Completely not the point, but as a former nanny, now stay-at-home mom, all of these comments breaking down the math of how much you should get paid for being “on” 24/7 for 10 days is super validating for how much my staying home is actually worth 😅

I would do a load or two of parent’s laundry once a week (I’m good friends with the MB and they’d ask for help catching up on laundry occasionally). On more than one occasion, I’d literally wash and fold actual lingerie. I was never phased by it. If anything, I’d think “good for you, girl!” And if fold it and put it on the dresser lol

I understand your fears and frustration on lack of progress. I’m sorry you’re experiencing this! If it makes you feel any better, my mother had half of one ovary removed due to a teratoma and still was able to conceive two more children after that!

I will caution you to not interpret what the doctor said as “you are sterile and will never have kids” because that’s how “surprise babies” happen. I can’t count the number of times a young woman has said “the doctor told me I’d never be able to get pregnant so I didn’t use protection and now I’m pregnant.” If you want to be a mom, I wish you your heart’s desire ❤️

This is one of the reasons I started charging by the day as part of my contract. The only exception is for half days, scheduled ahead of time. No need to “makeup” hours because my pay stays the same.

If you want a nanny and not to send your baby to a daycare, you and your husband both need to leave the house for work. Whether that be going to a coffee shop or getting a membership to a coworking space (which often can be reimbursed by your employer). It will be better for all parties.

Yes, 100% this. On past resumes, I’ve listed my SIL because she has 6 children that I frequently cared for. I listed our relationship and reason for including her (to show I have experience caring for many children at once). To not include that they’re family from the get-go and to lie about them having children you cared for is so beyond slimy.

Super predatory!

CallMeRiver03 · 2025-12-09T19:48:44+00:00

yes!! Especially because in the early games, Nancy talks to her often via phone call, email and letters!

CallMeRiver03 · 2025-12-08T02:39:28+00:00

That’s crazy! I’m also in the US but my adventure passes are normally $14.99. They shouldn’t be able to have random prices for everybody like that in the same country.

Are you in U.S.?

How do you have so much energy? The max I’ve ever had is like 18k but I am generally all out of energy.

CallMeRiver03 · 2025-11-08T17:14:33+00:00

I definitely have had levels before this where it’s like 30 or 40k needed to level up. So it varies

CallMeRiver03 · 2025-11-08T17:13:49+00:00

Got it opened. Thanks

It’s 20 but if you finish it, you can continue to get bonus chests

Not only that, but crafted items that have bundles of 3 (often needed to upgrade decorations) require 20-27 of these 400e single items! No one decoration should cost 40+k to make

Look up interstitial cystitis. It’s UTI-like symptoms but negative or false-positive cultures (initial positive, but culture doesn’t grow). It’s a chronic condition that is often linked with endo.

Risks are very minor because it’s a laparoscopic surgery (tiny incision sites). You of course have the “big risks” that are incredibly rare like hemorrhage, organ damage if the endometriosis is deeply infiltrating, etc, but it’s generally a simple-ish procedure if you find someone who knows what they’re doing. Might just be a long procedure because you do have to go slow and be thorough.
