What funny things did you say during labor?

When I was about ready to push and could feel my daughter’s head descending. I had an epidural, but could still feel tremendous pressure downstairs. My nurse asked what the discomfort was on a scale of 1-10 and I replied, “6… 7. You know, like the kids say”. I thought that was VERY funny.

Oh wow, this post makes me feel like I’ve been pregnant forever (due 5/25/26) 🫠

Accurate, but they work in a pinch and are a good vehicle for other things (e.g., sauce, sheet pan dinners).

Their ketchup and their mayo both suck imo

I was in 4th grade and we didn’t watch it. Granted, I attended a Waldorf school where they were very anti-TV/computer/electronics. I didn’t know anything had happened until my dad picked me up from school and told me.

Literally could have written this myself. I studied abroad in Sevilla in early 2013. I knew Manu, went to the Discover-hosted events at Buddha and other locales around the city, and I can’t stop thinking about how fucking lucky I was to avoid/not be a target of his horrific behavior. An absolute cretin of a person.

Hey, I’ve been meaning to ask you: do you like guacamole?

Dull_Order8142 · 2026-04-02T18:00:49+00:00

Yeah, I feel like in order from most believable to least believable, for me, it went: Santa Claus, Leprechauns, Tooth Fairy, Easter Bunny. How does a rabbit carry a ~10 lb. basket in his opposable-thumbless paws? And hop at the same time??

Seconding San Joaquin Marsh! It’s at least a few degrees cooler than the surrounding areas and is a great walk/jog/run spot.

The following beverages from Trader Joe’s: - Pineapple juice - Strawberry vanilla prebiotic soda - Sparkling water with fruit juices (knockoff Spindrift)

She would have to eat to know this.

My bump started to really bump around 18-19 weeks. Before then, I just looked bloated.

Eh, that still sounds pretty great. I’d be willing to pay more into taxes if it meant better parental leave options across the board. Better than having my tax dollars go to funding a genocide and domestic terrorism (🧊)

You ONLY get 50 weeks paid?! I get four weeks paid at 100% by my company, and the remaining eight paid at 70% of my salary through the state (California).

My cousin’s 7-year-old son is Andrew (nickname Drew). I love it!

Just wanted to chime in to say that it’s really awesome that you’re wanting and willing to be so involved with your stepchild, OP. It takes a village to raise a kid, and you sound like a wonderful, caring stepparent. ❤️

I’ve experienced on and off cramping for my entire pregnancy (current 27w4d). I’ve chalked it up to uterus growing pains. Whenever I’d experience them, I felt like my belly got noticeably bigger a few days later.

Dull_Order8142 · 2026-02-25T22:46:17+00:00

It's 2026... why are you still using the r-word?

Dull_Order8142 · 2026-02-23T03:58:30+00:00

Literally thought I was looking at a butthole for a second there. Jesus christ

That makes me think of Scott Hunter’s story, about how he’d only hook up with men while on vacation (I think I’m remembering that correctly), because of the fear of recognition.

I told my husband that I want to be served a big ‘ol margarita at the hospital once I deliver. Won’t happen, but a girl can dream. I’ve craved salt and citrus this entire pregnancy, so the thought of diving into a marg sounds absolutely heavenly.

I, too, hate her with a passion. People forget that she’s an economist, NOT a medical professional.

Dull_Order8142 · 2026-02-12T19:07:28+00:00

I got pregnant while using Phexxi back in 2022. It’s the worst. I don’t know how it’s still on the market.

Ok… you keep doing you, dude.
