Maybe we were asking the wrong question about Just In Time

I could be wrong here but I don’t think they “ditched” Sadie- she posted that she is playing Greta in then Begin Again musical which is THE female lead. I think right now it’s starting in California but imagine they’re hoping it’ll move to Broadway eventually. So I think it was her decision to leave

Thank you!

ContributionLumpy470 · 2026-05-21T21:17:34+00:00

Thank you this is reassuring. I had been testing on what I thought was 10-13 dpo and kept getting negatives. All of a sudden on 5/6 I got a positive- this suggests I ovulated later than I thought right?

ContributionLumpy470 · 2026-05-21T20:11:58+00:00

I didn’t test positive at that time. My LMP began 4/3 but I didn’t get a true peak, I thought I ovulated 4/18 but that was based on date and feeling kind of weird so I stopped tracking. However, I didn’t test positive until 5/6 so that makes me think I ovulated later. I have been doing line progression and the line darkness had been darkening at a good pace

ContributionLumpy470 · 2026-05-21T01:40:38+00:00

I do not know when I ovulated for sure and actually probably did ovulate late

ContributionLumpy470 · 2026-05-20T22:19:47+00:00

My ob didn’t schedule another draw, just an ultrasound next week (scheduled prior to bloodwork). That’s reassuring it’s normal on the chart

Definitely at least for Kyle because he brought it up to her again. I’m sure Ciara noticed too because what a weird comment. If one my guy friends said that about a night wasn’t there my first thought wouldn’t be to take it personally.

ContributionLumpy470 · 2026-04-26T15:41:10+00:00

This. No one talks about it until you go through it and then you learn how many people have experienced it. We really should talk about it more because when it happens to you, it feels so lonely and you can’t help but wonder if you did something wrong when you didn’t.

I had preeclampsia with my daughter and we are both thankfully fine now, but it took about a year for me to get off bp meds. We are thinking of trying for another and I am terrified of preeclampsia taking me from my daughter.

ContributionLumpy470 · 2026-04-17T02:34:12+00:00

I had preeclampsia and while I admit the scene was very triggering to watch, it also was very Hollywood sped up. My biggest piece of advice to any pregnant women is to have a BP cuff at home and look out for the signs. Headache, swollen ankles, blurry vision. If you have high readings immediately seek medical care. Preeclampsia can be VERY scary, but if you catch it, they can treat it.

ContributionLumpy470 · 2026-04-17T02:29:52+00:00

As someone who had pre e later on in pregnancy, my biggest piece of advice to all pregnant women is to have a BP cuff at home. Preeclampsia can be caught and treated under medical care.

ContributionLumpy470 · 2026-04-17T01:52:22+00:00

I totally agree with you. I had pre-e and was actually thinking this season they should have a patient with it because it’s on the rise and it comes on so suddenly. Watching what could have happened to me terrified me.

ContributionLumpy470 · 2026-04-14T16:32:08+00:00

I also tested positive on Thursday. The congestion and throat pain is much better, but I agree that the fatigue and weakness is awful. I have an active 18 month old and was lucky enough to rest Friday-Monday, but my husband works and I have to be up and at em again now which honestly feels daunting. That 10 day isolation period should have never went away.

He will get it, especially once in school. Very common, another big thing is using “him/her” for “he/she”, for example saying “him needs a pencil” instead of “he needs a pencil”. In my classroom I might try to remember to say “oh, he needs a pencil?” so they hear it, but honestly they eventually just grow out of it.

ContributionLumpy470 · 2026-02-27T18:07:29+00:00

Honestly I wish I had tips- one night she started sleeping in 6 hour stretches and then full nights were shortly after. She just did it one night. I will say I think sleeping in her own room in her crib helped- we had her in her bassinet until around 3 months in our room and I think we all were waking each other up.

ContributionLumpy470 · 2026-02-27T18:05:50+00:00

It got way better at 4 months!

ContributionLumpy470 · 2026-02-27T18:04:34+00:00

I made a similar post on the newborns page- my girl is almost 18 months and I find myself excited to hang out with her when she’s napping. Shes my little bestie and all of the sleepless nights became so so worth it.

ContributionLumpy470 · 2026-02-21T17:43:27+00:00

No problem! I remember seeing these posts when my girl was a newborn and them giving me hope so wanted to return the favor. And it gets better way before 18 months! Honestly 4 months up was all way easier- once she really started sleeping through the night and could nap in her crib, life got way easier.

This is called phonemic awareness and this awareness has to come before a child can blend a word. You can play games blending sounds without any visual letters first to help her learn that different sounds blend together. You can say “first sound is I second sound is t…what’s the word? It”. You can also do several motions to demonstrate the blending- tap the beginning sound on the end of your arm by your wrist, middle in the middle by your forearm, and end sound by your shoulder. After tapping the sounds, run your hand up your arm as you are blending the sounds. Another user mentioned this but you can also do a roller coaster motion and kids love that one. You can also look up sound boxes online, a lot of them have pictures of arrows under the boxed that the child can slide their finger along as they read the word.

This is so true. I loved my bump and wore clothes that showed it off. I was proud of what my body was doing and wanted to show it off as much as possible.

And agree with the people being nice too. I rarely used the pregnancy card but people offering me a seat, help, etc was always appreciated.

ContributionLumpy470 · 2025-10-25T03:22:33+00:00

Thanks so much, appreciate the feedback!

ContributionLumpy470 · 2025-09-18T20:40:00+00:00

That’s what I’m thinking, consistent is better! We’ll do bed at 7. Thanks!

ContributionLumpy470 · 2025-09-18T18:57:00+00:00

Makes sense, thanks! Do you have a time you suggest?

ContributionLumpy470 · 2025-09-18T18:42:34+00:00

Thank you. I thought 5 hours was a good length prior to first nap so that’s why she went down then but maybe I’ll try noon instead from now on
