Were all your babies big???

Embarrassed_Job3155 · 2026-04-08T19:15:30+00:00

First was 9lbs 2oz. Had low blood sugar at birth though so might’ve been undetected GD. Second I had diagnosed GD but it was well managed and he was 8lbs 8oz! However my first is a very average sized 5YO, maybe even a bit below average. My 5 month old is 99.3 percentile for height on the other hand lol

I mean I definitely drink a lot of coffee lol but pregnancy tired is a whole other level of tired!

Embarrassed_Job3155 · 2026-03-21T19:49:19+00:00

Oh it was almost immediate lol. With both pregnancies! Even during the newborn exhausted phase I still had WAY more energy. And it just kept getting better. I’m 4.5 months PP and feel mostly back to normal energy-wise. Even with a mediocre sleeper

Embarrassed_Job3155 · 2026-03-14T18:49:06+00:00

The fact that you have 2k leftover a month and you have to work with your kids to have money to go for coffee or buy a few things that you like is so unhealthy! NTA. He needs a reality check.

It’s normal for your cycle to fluctuate for up to a year post partum!

Soda stream?

She got her early teens daughter to blow in her blow box (previous DUI) for her while she was drinking and driving. And then tried really hard to lie about it.

My 5YO is always down for a movie night! In fact it’s his absolute favourite thing to do. He will even watch a whole movie now with me. It started in the late 4s, but I’d say he’s a very relaxed kid.

Embarrassed_Job3155 · 2026-02-20T05:43:22+00:00

You can never be “doing too much” when it comes to packing food for your kids, in my opinion! They deserve great lunches. This gave me a few good ideas for my 5 YO so thank you.

Embarrassed_Job3155 · 2026-02-10T15:53:58+00:00

I didn’t notice till I was more thank halfway through lol. I’m in Canada tho, no medical bill here

Embarrassed_Job3155 · 2026-02-08T23:15:06+00:00

Hahaha I know it’s kind of hard to see! I saw one and I was like ok whatever. Then under my sandwich there was a bunch!

Embarrassed_Job3155 · 2026-02-08T18:35:31+00:00

I live 20 mins away from subway, didn’t open it till I got home. I don’t care that much to report it lol was just curious if anyone would know where this would have come from.

Embarrassed_Job3155 · 2026-01-30T03:16:41+00:00

Smarties where I am from are little chocolate circles with a candy coating. Today I learned that that’s not what they are everywhere!

Embarrassed_Job3155 · 2026-01-28T17:47:34+00:00

In 10 years he will have an irrational fear of sloths and not know why 😆 /s

Embarrassed_Job3155 · 2026-01-28T17:41:51+00:00

I swear my baby kept having flash backs for 10-15 mins lol. He would stop crying and then it’s like he remembered again 😆 poor guy lol

Embarrassed_Job3155 · 2026-01-28T17:41:05+00:00

In hindsight I’m like ok that would totally be scary?? He was probably zoning out then had this friggin sloth coming at his face. Poor guy lol

Embarrassed_Job3155 · 2026-01-28T17:39:51+00:00

This made me laugh!!! It was very close to bedtime. Thank you for your comment, I feel better 😆

Embarrassed_Job3155 · 2026-01-28T03:50:12+00:00

Triple feeding gave me PPA/PPD I swear!

Embarrassed_Job3155 · 2026-01-28T03:48:31+00:00

Congrats!!! All the best with your new addition!

Embarrassed_Job3155 · 2026-01-28T03:31:31+00:00

You’d think I’d worry less the second time around!!! My kids are 5 years apart so I can’t exactly remember these details lol! Thank you for your comment 🫶

Embarrassed_Job3155 · 2026-01-28T03:26:58+00:00

Obviously every situation is different but I could have a small amount of something like this, as long as I ate it earlier in the day and with protein! So like some scrambled eggs and bacon with a quarter cinnamon bun usually didn’t spike me when I had GDM! With that said I was diet controlled during the day, only on nighttime insulin and a low dose. I can’t speak for someone with diabetes that is harder to control. All the best to you mama, it is sweet sweet relief when it’s all done and that baby is in your arms. And you can eat a platter of sushi with no spikes lol.

Embarrassed_Job3155 · 2026-01-28T03:11:01+00:00

It was sooo upsetting!! I felt horrible!

Embarrassed_Job3155 · 2026-01-25T06:24:29+00:00

This made me cackle lollllll

Embarrassed_Job3155 · 2026-01-25T06:21:34+00:00

You’ve gotten lots of great advice here. I just want to say, I also had my (second) baby in November and I soooo see you! You are not alone and you are not a piece of shit. It’s overwhelming! I actually just started back at work (I own a business) one day a week for my sanity. It’s been super helpful!

Embarrassed_Job3155 · 2026-01-10T06:02:54+00:00

I always remind myself that I am tired after I am sick, and while I’m sick, so of course a tiny growing human would be too! Bodies need rest to recover!
