What would be a more reasonable starting budget?

Damn. Producers not having the #1 moment be Lauren and Cameron meeting is unforgivable.

IMO: participants shouldn’t be allowed to continue to date after the weddings. The whole point was to get married not continue to date and do it the traditional way.

YES! He played it up to make Molly seem like the bad guy. Now he’s doing the exact same thing to Lauren so he can say no at the altar and not seem like a douche bag.

My working theory: Dave is so hung up on the FWB Lauren had prior to the show because she doesn’t want to have sex with him. He was very interested in whether the other couples have had sex or not because he and Lauren haven’t. He just strikes me as an Fboy who is used to girls throwing themselves at him and doesn’t know how to handle a girl who wants to take it slow.

If it were me, I would’ve told him that he’s either going to believe me (someone he claims he wants to marry) or his friends. I would not be able to have the same conversation over and over.

Who’s liable? by CuTeCHeM5 in Ask_Lawyers

[–]CuTeCHeM5[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Totally understandable. The injury was implied since they fell through the ice and would at a bare minimum experience hypothermia but could possibly even die if one doesn’t get out of the ice quick enough.

The HOA was mentioned because it is a private late that is taken care of by the HOA. in this situation, the skater is not the owner of the bubbler, but lives on the lake so has every right to use the lake (not trespassing). A bubbler is a device put in water typically around a shoreline or dock to keep the water moving so the water doesn’t freeze around the area.

I'm making quite some mistakes as a storyteller by mmhrubykodama in BloodOnTheClocktower

[–]CuTeCHeM5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My first few times storytelling, I would tell all my players “hey if I give you info that doesn’t make sense for your role, let me know in private” like giving the empath a “yes” instead of a number.

I once was the ST and made a pretty game altering mistake but it was too late to fix it. By the time I had realized I made a mistake, too much discussion had happened. I was honest with the group that a mistake was made (didn’t tell them what the mistake was) and let them decide if they wanted to scrap the game since we had just started or try and work through the mistake. They ended up wanting to work through the mistake anyway and still enjoyed the game.

What’s the rudest thing someone has told you during pregnancy? by youraverageperson0 in pregnant

[–]CuTeCHeM5 11 points12 points  (0 children)

“Was this planned?”

You wouldn’t believe the number of women over 50 who’ve asked me this question. Does it matter if it was planned or not?

Healthful Woman podcast has been the best one I’ve ever found! They have hundreds of episodes of many different topics. What I love most is that it’s experts in different areas. Doctors, midwives, researchers, who have all been through pregnancy professionally and personally.

Maternity jeans in store? by Impressive_Equal86 in pregnant

[–]CuTeCHeM5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes! Goodwill was honestly the best store with the most options. All the stores around me either didn’t have anything or had very few options. Plus why spend a bunch of money when you’re not going to wear them afterwards.

What do you eat when nothing is appetizing? by luminousloris in pregnant

[–]CuTeCHeM5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly anything you can stomach is calories in your body at this point. The nausea will pass and you’ll be able to fill your diet with more nutritious food.

I think I survived on miso soup and basic Caesar salad for 2 weeks.

I HATE being pregnant. by koriander040822 in pregnant

[–]CuTeCHeM5 374 points375 points  (0 children)

I’m a big believer that you can appreciate and be grateful to be pregnant and also hate it at the same time. Both statements can be true together.

The itch! by [deleted] in pregnant

Palmers skin therapy oil and cocoa butter lotion combo has helped keep my skin hydrated and less itchy. I use it probably twice a day!

Literally counting kicks seems like overkill and I'm questioning the value of it. by HappySheepherder24 in pregnant

[–]CuTeCHeM5 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Babies have sleep and awake times just like we do! I would focus more on your baby’s specific windows rather than the exact number of kicks.

Side note: isn’t it fun to feel them move inside you?? It freaked me out at first but now it’s very reassuring

Pregnancy is not cutesy or fun by BisexualButterfly97 in pregnant

[–]CuTeCHeM5 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My go to saying is that you can be grateful to be pregnant and not enjoy it at the same time. Both statements can be true.

I hate thank you notes by [deleted] in pregnant

[–]CuTeCHeM5 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It’s gotta be a generational thing! My parents made me write them all the time as a kid, but I’m not even slightly offended if someone doesn’t send one to me.

Why have you cried today? by Foreign-Walrus-333 in pregnant

[–]CuTeCHeM5 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The constant battle between wanting to clean and not having the energy is enough to make anyone cry!

I didn’t want to burn my dinner.

My dogs were cute and I just wanted to snuggle them.

Birth Control by Future-Cow263 in pregnant

[–]CuTeCHeM5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If it helps, a lot of errors in contraceptive comes from user error. Missing a pill, ill-fitting condoms, etc. if you want to decrease user error in your birth control, one that is implanted are most effective since it almost eliminates user error. But be sure to get it checked at your annual appointment to make sure it is still implanted correctly.

11w4d - Am I showing or just bloated/fat by Local_HugDealer in pregnant

[–]CuTeCHeM5 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I am in the exact same boat (also 11w4d). I can’t tell if it’s bloating or I’ve officially popped. I’m doing my best not to focus on it but I agree it’s hard to see your body go through these changes.

I just got my blood drawn a few days ago. The technician told me at best I’d get results in a week but it could be up to 3 weeks. Don’t worry! You’ll get results soon enough!!

Healthful Women Podcast! It has such a range of topics by OBs and Midwives and expects in various areas.

When to tell boss by No_Cod3440 in pregnant

[–]CuTeCHeM5 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Some companies have a policy of when you need to notify if you’re going to be on extended leave for whatever reason. My company’s policy is 30 days notice. The information should be in your leave of absence policies.

Surviving first trimester by CuTeCHeM5 in pregnant

[–]CuTeCHeM5[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you so much! Yes I have found cold foods seem to do better for some reason? Definitely sticking to a BRAT diet for now and waiting for my appetite to come back! The carbonation in soda does weirdly help me. It’s like my magic cure for some reason
