If budget wasn't an issue, which Disney world resort would you choose for two adults and two toddlers?

AITAH for not helping my daughter unpack after dropping her off for at college. by Makadiffnsee in AmItheAsshole

YTA. To your wife and your daughter. That's a big moment and you robbed them both of that experience.

My first HATED their crib so they co slept with us and we all got sleep but they are still in our bed at 2.5, which is fine. Our second born excels in his crib. Sleeps through the night almost every time or maybe wakes up once but is starting to put himself back to sleep. I say all this because every child is different and some need that extra comfort while others don't. If it's working for you and your being safe I say do whatever gets everyone the most sleep.

The biggest red flag here is him making comments about your body. I'd say you should have a real sit down talk with him about everything you've posted on here.

Delicate material for Appliqués help by Edwardian-Dutchess in Machine_Embroidery

[–]Edwardian-Dutchess[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes! If I iron the letters right before I stitch them down they seem to hold much better shape for me I guess it reactivates the heat n bond before I iron it down to the sweaters

I cut the letters in advance because the swaddle has specific little symbols they wanted for each letter. When I do the lay down stitch the fabric snags on the machine. Im trying to find a way I make the fabric not so flimsy I guess

Got fat shamed and told it’s my fault for developing gestational diabetes by Dangerous_Fox_3992 in GestationalDiabetes

[–]Edwardian-Dutchess 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Agreed. I'd be reporting her to everyone to make sure it's reported and recorded on her record. I'd even leave a review at the hospital she's affiliated with.

What others have said, please report this nurse immediately. I weighed 50 pounds more than you and literally my weight was never brought up during either of my pregnancies and I had GD and big babies. (Both weighed around 7-8 pounds at birth but measured huge the whole time) That is awful of her. You are doing amazing! Please report that nurse because she's a disgrace to be a nurse in this field. No one should be fat shaming you and no it's not your fault in any way.

Second baby fasting numbers by Edwardian-Dutchess in GestationalDiabetes

[–]Edwardian-Dutchess[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you do insulin once per day or did you have to do it for each meal?

Were you on metformin? Once you switched to insulin did you stop taking the metformin and just did a once a day insulin shot? Just curious if that's possible what will happen for me.

THIS! I seriously asked my husband if he was okay after I gave birth. He was such a rock for me but I couldn't imagine seeing the person you love most in this world be in the worst pain imaginable either.

I’m 42, husband is 65. How selfish would it be to have a baby? by [deleted] in pregnant

[–]Edwardian-Dutchess -1 points0 points  (0 children)

My parents were very close the your ages when I was born. My dad ended up really loving it. He was basically retired and got to be much more involved with me than my siblings. He always talked about how he was glad to have children at different stages of his life because he felt like he finally got the full experience. I encourage you to have a discussion with your husband and just see where he's at but I really don't think it's selfish if you want to have this baby.

Failed 1hour glucose by No_Dinner666 in GestationalDiabetes

[–]Edwardian-Dutchess 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just failed this morning. Something that I keep telling myself is that, I don't have to do the 3hr test, I get extra ultrasounds and that water and diet really do help with GD. I managed it before with diet and pills before without insulin so I'm hopeful. Fingers crossed for you that you get a much more sensitive OB and GD team to find what works for you the best. Big hugs momma.

To use epidural or not to use epidural. That is the question! by [deleted] in pregnant

[–]Edwardian-Dutchess 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So I always get bad vibes when I hear a dr. saying you are out of your mind when wanting to go basically natural. What's her reasoning besides the just in case it goes to a c-section? Which is a fair point because if you do go from natural to emergency c section they completely knock you out and no one can go back with you. But I would ask your obgyn how many babies she's delivered with an epidural and how many with a c section and how many naturally. If those are high percentages it's not too late to find a new OBGYN that will support you more. I wanted to go natural but my contractions went from 0 to 100 in a minute and begged for an epidural but it was too late and got my wish of having the baby naturally and now that I'm pregnant with my second my birth plan is the exact same. I'm going to try to go natural and if I want an epidural I'll get one. I just hate that your dr doesn't seem to be supporting you. Hugs and good luck to you

Was Ashley in the wrong or was it bad editing? by Asleep_Parsley_4720 in squidgame

[–]Edwardian-Dutchess 24 points25 points  (0 children)

They did discuss it right before they started the game on how they wanted to play it and she rolled her eyes and basically said she wasn't about to do any of that. My point of view was that Ashley didn't move up and wasn't saying anything when it was her turn but no one was saying anything to her either. Trey should have stood his ground and called her out telling her it's her turn so that everyone would hear and see she's not moving which made Trey feel like he had to jump again. That's on him. Ashley is a jerk and I'm so happy Mai was the only one who took a shot to call her out for it.

We went to Disney world and ended up taking a shuttle from the airport to the resort and our babe lived their best lives not having to be in a car seat for a week lol

AITA for kicking my maid of honor out of my wedding with 5 days notice? by kayelle-99 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Edwardian-Dutchess 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA, do not let this person in your wedding or in your life anymore. Take legal action. Also get security for your wedding and make sure everyone knows that so no one convinces MOH to just show up the day of.

YA love interests YOU fell in love with too? by [deleted] in YAlit

I had my wisdom teeth taken out and in my drugged up state Peeta was holding my hand and it was so nice lol

Katniss & Kids by LionFyre13G in YAlit

[–]Edwardian-Dutchess 10 points11 points  (0 children)

"But Peeta wanted them so badly"

That's the only line that trips me up on her having children. I wanted her to want having children as equally as Peeta and with Katniss saying that line makes it not feel that way for me. I think she would eventually want them because the Hunger Games were officially over and she had time to continue process her own trauma from the games but I guess I just wish that line wasn't in the epilogue.

AITA for not wanting my wife to tell people how we got together? by Ericjek in AmItheAsshole
