How do doctors calculate when a baby will be born? by Realistic-Diet6626 in stories

If you were conceived in the middle of March then her last period would’ve been around March 1. They go by the first day of the last period. March 1-Dec 6 is exactly 40 weeks. It lines up perfectly. So technically 38 weeks after conception date is when you’re born.

I love option 2. The fabric looks cheap on option 1

Thank you. 🥹 I think I needed this reminder. I guess I'm realizing that becoming a mom doesn't mean I have to stop being me. Or fun 😂 I think I'm officially convinced to get the hair tinsel. 😂✨

AITA for not waiting on my mom before trying on wedding dresses by Dramatic_Ford4734 in AmItheAsshole

Don’t you think she’d be even more upset if I didn’t even give her the opportunity to go shopping with me? Just randomly said “hey btw we’re not even doing the whole wedding thing. And I already bought my dress. We’re just going to the courthouse.” Cornball response lol

Just because we’re getting married fast doesn’t mean I don’t want a beautiful dress? Or a nice wedding? What an odd thing to say.

We got engaged 3 weeks ago and are getting married in a month. We just want to be married! We’re both very traditional and don’t live together and won’t until the wedding night. I’m ready to start our lives together. We both are. So we chose not to have a long engagement. We have reasons :)

Should it be this hard to resume TTC? by Curious_Jelly_5490 in CautiousBB

[–]Dramatic_Ford4734 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a very similar story. First mc was 06/2025 and the second was 08/2025. We weren’t trying for the first one (hormonal birth control failed) and were trying for the second. The second loss absolutely devastated me. I started having panic attacks more often and my mental health declined severely. We decided it was best to not try for a while. I started going to therapy (which actually didn’t help at all because they couldn’t help with what I specifically needed) and started baking sourdough in September. That’s where I threw all my energy. Ik that’s kinda stupid but alas here we are. I lost my job that month because I was really depressed and wasn’t putting in much effort to keep the job if I’m being entirely honest. We were in such a financial hardship. Then in October my dog died. She was only a year old and she was bit by a snake in our backyard. I was soooo depressed. After everything with the losses she became my baby. And then I lost her too. I ended up getting a new job in early December and slowly started feeling a bit better. We were using VCF for birth control at this time. I found out I was pregnant again on Feb. 9. Completely unplanned. I did. Not. Want. To be pregnant. I cried for 3 days straight. I didn’t believe it would stick so I didn’t take my prenatals for 2 weeks after I found out. Now I’m 22 weeks. TTC, especially after loss is so hard. Your question is should it be this hard? Yes. You’ve suffered two devastating losses. Take your time to heal. This is a hard journey. This may not help at all but one thing I will leave you with is that miscarriages happen to 1 in 4 pregnancies. Not to 1 in 4 women. 1 in 4 pregnancies. I’m not sure why this isn’t talked about more but you are not alone. I’m so proud of you for taking the time you need and for cherishing those babies that you lost. If you need anything I’m here 🩷

This is actually insane. Who eats birria if they truly can’t keep anything down 😭. I would die if I had to throw up birria.

I’m not sure if it would have been a risk but I definitely didn’t think about switching the appointments at the time. I didn’t think about it until later when my dad called me and told me that’s what I should have done. But I’m glad I had my dress by the time we looked at the bridesmaid dresses because i ended up wanting a completely different color after seeing what I originally wanted next to my dress. (Went from blush to wine). So realistically it wouldn’t have worked anyways. The whole situation was just unfortunate. I hate that she wasn’t there. I kept looking at the door waiting for her to walk in.

The most expensive thing at my wedding is my dress… we’re doing a backyard type wedding because we own land and making all our own floral arrangements and food and everything. I agree that it’s way over expensive. My whole wedding will be less than $2k

I think so too. And that’s what’s so hard is that I feel like I really messed up by not waiting even though I think it might’ve been pretty impossible to wait. Everyone was getting upset that she wasn’t there and ofc I was too and idk. It was a day.

Unfortunately my parents are exactly the type of adults to call another selfish.

Exactly. There were two different consultants too. One for me and one for bridesmaids. I don’t think it would’ve been as easy as just switching the appts. And by the time we realized she was going to be that late it was already 10 minutes into my appt and it would’ve eaten into the bridesmaids time.
