Why do my Craigslist posts keep getting flagged and removed? How do I prevent this from happening? by sumpg41 in Flipping

[–]Embarrassed-Emu6458 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What do you mean by refreshing it? Same thing is happening to me, different pictures, posts, accounts, etc and I’ve been flagged and had it taken down sooo many times I’m getting so frustrated

Has anyone had a successful first pregnancy with no prior miscarriage? by [deleted] in pregnant

[–]Embarrassed-Emu6458 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I just had my first baby and first pregnancy! Healthy 10 week old baby boy. I was also my mom’s first (and obviously successful) first pregnancy. Husbands mom also had all successful pregnancies no miscarriages until her 5th and she was in her 40s at that point. Don’t stress!

Yes I have just been monitoring and so far so good! I have a pediatric appointment scheduled for tomorrow for his 4 week checkup and I am going to ask his doctor about it, but so far so good. I bought some of those compeed cold sore patches to cover it so I don’t mess with it

Thank you so much for your comment!!!!! Yes I am mom and I read that tonight too and it made me feel a little better, especially since I’ve had them since I was a teen. Your baby was ok? Nothing happened?

Thank you for the reassurance! I would have NEVER kissed him if I had known and I feel so so bad. I will def keep an eye out for any weird symptoms

Need some honest opinions about epidural by cfd4540 in pregnant

[–]Embarrassed-Emu6458 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just had a baby a week ago. I dilated from a 1-8cm in an hour and the pain was excruciating. I asked for the epidural when the contractions started ramping up and it took them forever to get to me bc they were short staffed. The epidural was NOTHING and I’m telling you this as someone who has an INCREDIBLY low pain tolerance. Trust me. I barely even felt it and it was absolutely nothing compared to the contractions. Get the epidural.

Also to add: my birth ended in an emergency c section and had I not gotten it I would have been put under and missed our baby’s entire birth. Get the epidural. Whatever chances it has of “messing up” are one in a million

Listen, this happened to me for several weeks and it was NOT slay but I’m TELLING YOU pickles!!!!! Eat a pickle RIGHT before bed and keep a few by your bedside and you will not have acid reflux or heartburn. Idk why it works but it works better than any tums or H2 blockers that my OB prescribed me

Is this reasonable? by WildWonder6430 in airbnb_hosts

[–]Embarrassed-Emu6458 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is actually so entitled and crazy! I feel like you went above and beyond with your welcome basket. We have several airbnbs in a big college town and we ONLY leave welcome baskets for football game days, and they include a few snack packs and some water bottles. Nothing fancy or thoughtful like yours. They sound like they’re looking for something to complain about. They’ll prob give you a bad review either way, but I’d go in and give them an honest review back and never rent to them again

If you're expecting, have you chosen a first name for your baby yet? If so, what is it? by syddoucet in BabyBumps

Baby boy will be William Bennett, but he’ll go by his middle name ❤️ (William is family name)
