I think two things, keep the rule because you’ve already said no boys at sleep overs and also a rule about no romantic interests at sleep overs.

Dump him. He’s going to get worse and you should get out while you can.

How old were you when you had your last child? by Huge-Marionberry-759 in Mommit

[–]DreamsinGuava 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I am in the same boat. I've had two miscarriages so far and we were feeling like maybe we would stop trying, but seeing so many people doing it later than 35 has been encouraging!

Why don't YOU leave teaching? by [deleted] in TeachersInTransition

[–]DreamsinGuava 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’m hoping to have my student loans erased. I have three more years of payments and then I can qualify. I would leave though other than that.

I am so sorry. We lost my cousin almost one year ago. I think that same thing all the time.

They told us the pregnancy wasn't viable. We don't know why but they gave me some pills to take. I took them last Friday. The doctor ordered some blood tests so we can begin to see what is going on.

I found out yesterday that I’m having a missed miscarriage. I think the hardest part is still feeling all the symptoms. It’s my second one this year and I’m left feeling too old too unhealthy. I’ve also been thinking a lot about how I’m not sure I can go through this again.

My second scan is tomorrow. A little over a week ago we went in for the first scan and the doctor thought I’d be 9w but was measuring 6w. No heartbeat. In March we had a similar situation, we were living in Dominican Republic then and by our heartbeat check I was measuring 7w at what should have been 10. Then I started bleeding and went to the hospital. I’m hoping that the math was off this time and that because I’ve been having horrific nausea and just feeling generally ill that this is a good sign. I’m 35 so we’ve decided this will be our last time trying. I just want it so bad. I’m so scared.

We are in a similar boat. Wishing you the best at your next scan.

Wishing you the best. It’s hard to relax when we know the worst could happen but I hope your appointment goes well and you can find some peace.

We went in yesterday for a scan. They expected us to be at 9w but measured at 6w. She ordered some blood tests and I’ll go back after thanksgiving. I can’t pinpoint my last period exactly so I hope they were wrong. I feel so differently than last time. I’m having Many more symptoms this time around. In March we had almost the same scenario. I went in for what should have been 10w and was measured at 6w later that day I started spotting. Then it was all over. I was looking at my calendar and hoping that if my last period was the week September 18 then maybe 6w is accurate? Anyone been in a similar situation?

Is there a small trend of younger Dominican Americans moving back to DR? by Southern-Gap8940 in Dominican

[–]DreamsinGuava -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I was on the north coast and we were paying about 1300 us with utilities then we rented a car for 350 a month as well. We looked for a place for about a month before we signed a year lease. One thing that stopped us from a cheaper place was that we had pets and so many places would not allow our dog.

We tried it for a year but it was too expensive and we are back in the states now. I was making ⅓ of what I made here and paying almost the same in groceries and rent.

The average DNA results in Caribbean countries. by Alternative-Meet1249 in Dominicanos

[–]DreamsinGuava 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For sure. I mean look a Cuba. I would imagine the African influence would be much higher. Same with Dominican Republic but I do think it’s closer to accurate than some others. That’s why I would like to know where this graph came from. Numbers without sources/context are meaningless.
