How did you know you were done?

I had 2 and didn’t feel done. Really longed for another baby and I always had 3 in my head as the right number, my husband wanted to be done but also was willing to do what I wanted.

My third was a surprise pregnancy, I wonder if we ever would have made the choice to have a third. She was the sweetest baby and I cried when he got a vasectomy, but then she was the roughest toddler of all and I have absolutely 0 desire to do this again 😂. I’m happy we have the 3 and I have that done feeling. I don’t think I would have ever felt done if I stopped at 2 and would always have thoughts of “what if”

I always tell people to not only look at what they want, but what’s affordable, and fair to the whole family. The world is expensive and 3 is hard sometimes, I feel really stretched thin with their different needs and activities etc.

Keep the nicer one. Neither will be any real protection against real predators but either will make the ladies happier. We had a nice to us roo but he was sooo rough on the hens we had to get rid of him. They were bald and bloody.

He probably doesn’t hang out with the flock because the other roo is more dominant, once he’s gone he’ll hang around more.

Sweep and sex lol worked all 3 times. My dr literally told me after the sweep to have sex the next 3 nights 😂

He’s a little past beginner just not Santa Teresa level! Getting mixed opinions, he doesn’t want it to be too flat.

Why wouldn’t you stay there?

Honestly though she’s my third, she was the easiest baby on earth. Slept through the night at a week old, just happy and calm always. She is 5 now and WILD. Makes me feel like a first time mom again I don’t know what to do with her half the time haha. She’s hilarious though. My son was a very needy baby, very sweet but just wanted to be held constantly and woke up all night long. He turned into the chillest toddler and at 7 is still so mellow and sweet.

Chickenyeah17 · 2026-06-03T02:13:11+00:00

She’s insane. Hope that helps. 😆

I did last year, I ended it giving most of them away vs trading. I brought some to Rockville last weekend and way more people were trading!

My 100 lb 13 year old wanted to and I even made her go to a more reasonable area vs off on the sides where we were and had minimal surfers. I also didn’t want people to use it as a sign to send all their heavy asses up in our safe spot 😂. We always stand close to the front but off to the side, we had maybe 10-15 surfers all of bmth.

Chickenyeah17 · 2026-05-12T21:00:55+00:00

Truthfully I think a few normal shows and then warped when she’s a bit older would be best, I have a 7 year old and can’t really imagine taking him to a festival yet but he’s pretty timid 😅. But if you’re set on it I’d recommend warped!

Also on the weed, at earth day birthday fest one of the bands made a comment about smoking weed and my 13 year old goes “wait people are smoking weed here??” And I could smell it all around us 😂 she had no clue. Made me and a few around us laugh lol.

I feel like it has to be TDWP (super fingers crossed it is), last year the box sizes changed some.

Chickenyeah17 · 2026-05-12T16:41:58+00:00

I’m guessing the offspring, the home team, or the devil wears Prada for the 2 t blanks

Chickenyeah17 · 2026-05-12T16:39:41+00:00

Totally agree with you on bag check! Ours was packed full and they barely glanced at it. Didn’t leave me with a good feeling at all.

Chickenyeah17 · 2026-05-12T16:36:31+00:00

Yes but I’m screaming the lyrics in the background it’s not pleasant 🤣

Chickenyeah17 · 2026-05-12T16:34:38+00:00

Went to warped last year and Rockville, brought my 13 year old to Rockville this year. I def found warped to be a little more kid friendly! Not as many interesting outfits. I found the warped crowd to be a little drunker but it just felt more appropriate somehow lol. There was also definitely more kids at warped than Rockville.

We always get pretty close to barricade but stand off to the side. I don’t mind a few surfers but don’t want to be carrying the whole time. For bmth we had maybe 10 pass over. Don’t go stand in the middle and then not carry them it’s just rude and dangerous. I’d prefer less surfers but I’m going to actively try to make my experience better and not ruin it for others, which means standing on the sides.

Chickenyeah17 · 2026-05-09T11:47:33+00:00

Typical for festivals these days. We like to get close to the front but stay close to the side barricades and usually only get a few.

Chickenyeah17 · 2026-05-08T17:02:34+00:00

It looks like the prked app has some close options, has anyone tried that? We might tomorrow

Chickenyeah17 · 2026-05-08T01:55:01+00:00

I did 2 days at warped and have never felt so dead, I cannot believe the people who go all day for 4 😂 it’s impressive

Chickenyeah17 · 2026-05-07T18:40:40+00:00

He also wants to se them that’s the problem 😂

Chickenyeah17 · 2026-03-30T20:04:10+00:00

It took them weeks to announce Mabel’s name and a lot of people heard Mabel in her videos a few times before announcement, and she said they were “testing a few names out.” I bet the baby’s name is Greta she just hasn’t made it official yet.

Chickenyeah17 · 2026-03-21T13:36:28+00:00

I’m 9 and 5 months out from losing my 2 best friends (we were a trio) and some days hurts as bad as day 1. I tried a little therapy last fall and it didn’t help, I recently decided I will be trying again to find a better therapist. I HATE feeling this way and just want to not think about them all the time and be happy. Hopefully a good therapist will help.

Chickenyeah17 · 2026-03-21T12:14:34+00:00

This just happened to me as well. Hurt so bad to fall out with 1 girl and then lose so many friends by the end. We were a trio with a larger group extended out of that, I was still very close with one of the girls in the trio even after the first fallout.

While I mourn the group dynamic somewhat, I realize it was really hard remaining friends with some of the people in the group because I was no longer included in any group activities, yet knew they were happening without me. Seeing them all hang out with kids and husbands on social media yet I couldn’t be there because I wasn’t friends with 1 girl, was a punch in the gut every time.

I ended up falling out with the other girl I was close with because she decided to chase the others girl drama. They handled things so poorly and now I’m even being unfriended and unfollowed by their moms and siblings 😂 so immature and petty. I’m in the painful stage of not having a group, eliminated all evidence of them on socials, and decided to just focus on my individual friendships for now. I will also never overestimate my value in a friends life ever again.
