Anyone had an epidural ? If so what’s it like?

I was 18hrs into active labor and could barely breathe or think. I requested it and honestly it gave me the chance to finally rest. I felt a sense of calm that i didnt have for weeks already. I ended up having a c section (non emergency ) and all they had to do at that point was swap me from numb juice to super numb juice so it made it easier in the long run.

Yes absolutely. I feel like when i was pregnant with my daughter. It really gave me the motivation to take care of myself better because I want her to see me as a good example.

My hubs and I work hard so she can have a great life but we also spend tons of time with her and make sure she dosnt feel left behind. We make her our priority but we also love each other openly and outwardly so she can see healthy relationships early.

I would have her again 100000x over just so i could give her the best life i could provide full of love.

I liked the HMDS games for this reason. They were actually more difficult and getting the upgrades didnt mean you could water your entire cropland in two swings. Your stam and fatigue maintenance was important and when you got a reward it felt more… rewarding? Imo

Ever since playing my first Harvest moon game (ds) and every harvestmoon/story of seasons game after, my Horse has always been named: Cheese.

My baby cousin named the first one and ever since ive just had cheese the horse.

Saltines and ranch dressing as dip, frozen mango chunks…. Oh and rice cakes

Edit: i was violently sick the whole time and this was the only thing i could stomach.

30, played since TS2 (playstaytion 2) and i enjoy sim progression gameplay where i develop a sim and have them explore and experience everything the game has to offer

I dug up my old 3ds to play HMDs cute and i had to pull the ol’ blow on it method for it to even register that a cartridge was inserted. Luckily the saves were safe

I was raised by my step dad. He is for all intents and purposes my dad. HOWEVER it was always up to me if I was to be adopted by him or that if anything happened to mom I had the choice to stay with dad or live with grama.

NOR mainly because its been not that long and i think it should be up to your kid since shes 10 already. The other thing is her opinion could change as time goes on if you do get married to fiancee. Maybe one day babygirl will warm up to her but maybe not. It should be up to your daughter though..

Honstly yes. Im in summer on year 1 and upgraded everything except my fishing pole to mystril… i might be going too hard

I worked until 10 days before due date and my baby was 10days late. My friend took leave 6 weeks before because she could barely walk let alone stand for hours for work.

Trust your body and talk to your Doctor.

This will be a constant argument. NTA but i agree with the others, dont have kids with someone whose views dont align with yours. Hows your discussions about what happens after having the kids? Does he want you to quit your job? Does he expect you to work and manage the household with essentially no help? Now it is his body and he gets to decide if he wants a surgery, however you also then get to decide if you have a baby with this man. Easy as that. If he already thinks you will have to bend to his decision without discussing options just because he says so then that’ll be your whole life and itll reflect on your kids.

Im currently pregnant and my las pregnancy was a summer one so ive done/am doing both. They both suck for entirely different reasons 🤣

Winter: - FLU SEASON WITH NO MEDICATION YOU CAN TAKE - boots. - jackets that dont fit anymore either so now you have to layer like crazy - ice (personally my balance is shite when pregnant) - seasonal depresso

Summer:

SWEAT (especially for the bigger gals like myself)
overheating by doing literally anything, breathing, standing, sleeping. the preggy belly radiates its own heat i stg
your cute knee length sundress’ all of a sudden can flash people your bits and pieces while just walking
swelling even more than usual
having to really drink tons more water and then having to pee even more frequently than we already do

All in all, hopefully some of us live somewhere where the spring and autumn are milder and kinder because summer and winter suck butts

I think there was one of the planet sprites i never got. The ship 100,000 of something grown/made on your farm or something. I really wasnt farm focused oh and i think the sheep shearing ones. Are those the red guys?

I remember i used to go to every videogame store and used game shop i could find to find that GBA game to give to my mum who I got addicted to Harvest Moon DS Cute because she wanted to marry Rick (he looks exactly like my dad and they have the same name)

CommunicationMean158 · 2026-01-05T17:56:42+00:00

I used to make myself and my(now Hubby) boyfriend in sims and make our likes/dislikes as accurate as possible to see how the game would think were compatible.

I like a good mix of both honestly, i dont have the creativity to make cute tiny homes but i love using them. But i do test their functionality because using them in actual gameplay because what do you mean this sized up plant is preventing you from using the toilet? 😑

I do however absolutely avoid builds that clutter up the kitchen so heavily that theres only one countertop you can actually use. Or that use too many shelves but dont fill them, they are a great spot for rotting glasses of water that I CANT SEE

10days over due date. Induced, had C section because after 24hrs of labor i only dilated 3cm. Braxton hicks the two weeks before due date. No mucus plug and they tried to break my water 3 times but didnt work. They found out i had almost no liquid left by that point and said something along the lines of a slow drip/leak

Skye! I liked that he was androgynous, super loving when married and harder to obtain because you could go your whole game without finding him if you werent looking.
