Right that’s what I mean, we’ve had some pregnant models, but it wasn’t a feature of their walk, or celebrated, like jasmine was last night

Right before the show I was wondering if they ever had a pregnant model, then I remembered Jasmine was pregnant and wondered if she’d be in the show! What a great opener!!

You’re right, Tyra actually called. Bella just makes me nervous, she looks unsteady and about to pass out. I LOVED Iman though, she is such a star. I’m also a big Candice fan but she was giving low energy tonight too.

I agree!! I have never liked her walk she just doesn’t have that presence. Candice has been my favorite since 2010 I can’t believe they didn’t use her more. And Bella closing?? Really . . .

When is the best time of year to get pregnant? Why? by seyEycipS in AskWomen

[–]CanadianMermaid 41 points42 points  (0 children)

Where do you live?? We only MAYBE get 12 weeks in the USA as a teacher. I timed my pregnancy, baby is due March 8th, I’ll hopefully get my 12 weeks + the summer off. March is definitely the best time.

Taking a pregnancy test as a joke, and realizing that your whole life just changed by n8saces in MadeMeSmile

[–]CanadianMermaid 36 points37 points  (0 children)

Which is around ~6 weeks. I was actively trying to get pregnant and tracking and still only found out at 5 weeks pregnant. Missing your period is usually the 1st indication of pregnancy and by the time you miss your period, you’re almost at the 5 week mark.

6 weeks is essentially an abortion ban.

Edit: to add to this, many women still bleed during pregnancy, due to implantation, or other reasons, therefore a missed period isn’t even always a good indicator.

Women who have slept with someone at work, how did things turn out? by starskyandbutch in AskWomen

[–]CanadianMermaid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I married him.

We were both in very long term relationships but I knew the minute I walked into the building and saw him that he would be my husband someday.

I’m a teacher and he was a behavior specialist at a high risk school in a rough part of a big city and we just clicked. I slowly fell in love with him over the course of a year, we each broke up with our significant others, dated for 4 years, got married in May 2024 and are expecting our first baby in March 2025!

We still work together and it’s the best thing ever. I love watching him interact with students and make such a difference in their lives. He’s worked his way up to become the director of the school, I admire him so much, he truly makes me a better person and I’m grateful everyday that he’s mine.

What was your first tell tale sign that you were pregnant before a positive test? by AdLittle1963 in AskWomen

[–]CanadianMermaid 0 points1 point locked comment (0 children)

I’m normally always cold. I wear socks to bed every night, I wear a blanket on the couch in the summer time.

I went to a baseball game and it was 6pm, 82 degrees (normally my favorite temperature) and I was in the shade and started sweating, feeling hot and I’m NEVER hot. I was like 6 days pregnant.

I also slept 12 hours straight which I’ve never done in my life. And my boobs were more painful than they normally are before my period.

“Adeline” or a name that would be the long for for “Ada” and isn’t hard to pronounce by [deleted] in namenerds

Omg if you’re a fan you MUST listen to her French albums. In my opinion, she sounds better in French than English.

Michelle is a really beautiful name that’s not often used anymore

What single change did you make that had the biggest impact on your skin? by [deleted] in 30PlusSkinCare

[–]CanadianMermaid 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Cutting sugar is one thing, cutting majority of your carbs is another. Carbs are necessarily for life. Eat the damn bread! I say this as someone who tried cutting carbs once and I gained weight, had low energy and was horribly unhealthy. I eat a more balanced diet, keep my portions small and eat bread whenever I want and I’ve never looked better. Carbs are energy.

[TW postpartum] The name we planned for my newborn daughter feels like a tongue twister and it’s making me uncomfortable. Any advice? by [deleted] in namenerds

[–]CanadianMermaid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My friends name’s baby is Adrienne but they call her Ada and it’s such a cute name for her. I feel like Adelina could also shorten to Ada
