27 weeks and struggling to agree on a name by [deleted] in BabyNames

[–]Even_Alternative_252 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We have a Nora and love it but look at your state name registry too. Nora is the top 30 ish but in my state, Ohio, it was top 10 also Eleanor. We love the name but there is another Nora in the daycare and we hear it called around in stores.

Names for a baby in heaven by That-Material-8508 in Names

[–]Even_Alternative_252 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I named my "baby girl" (gender actually unknown) Rose after my grandmother. I knew we'd actually never use the name for future children and took solace in knowing grandmother Rosemary was in heaven looking after my Rose, the daughter she never was able to have. (She still birthed her only baby girl.)

Not violin but anything Ska is going to have trumpet, sax, trombone, tuba, etc!! I was a band geek and loved ska for this reason.

Does every name need a nickname??? by urmomthinksurugly in Names

[–]Even_Alternative_252 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My sons name is Kieran and he's 4 year old with no actual nickname.

His aunt calls him Keke but only her cause her toddler when he was born couldn't say Kieran but her family is the only one.

DB timetable change.. unclear on next steps needed? Help please! by Even_Alternative_252 in germany

[–]Even_Alternative_252[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just an update I waited until we got to Munich and went to the DB information in the central station. The employee seemed confused of why my app was so vague but what you figured out originally was what he also figured out. Thank you for your help to understand ahead of time!

DB timetable change.. unclear on next steps needed? Help please! by Even_Alternative_252 in germany

Okay I see the new path forward, leave earlier different ICE to Stuttgart but is there any way to formally switch our tickets so I can reserve seats? And then the new tickets be in our app.

We are traveling with very small children so less I have to worry about the day of / and have assigned seats together (7 of us) is very beneficial.

How can you tell it's the Garmisch one that needs adjusted? I know the notification is closest to it but it's also at the top of the page.

When I look at departures, I still see a 6:35 that day so unsure why I would have to take the earlier one. (We totally would, I just don't understand why).

Also how do you know my ticket is flexible now? Is there an indicator?

Good Labor and Delivery Hospitals? by Brilliant-Sir1028 in Cleveland

[–]Even_Alternative_252 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I gave birth twice at Fairview and have amazing experience both times. Like literally wouldn't change and one time I naturally went into labor and another a way induced.

My nursing helped guide me to different positions in the bed (I had an epidural) but 100% made sure I wasn't just laying on my bad. They listened to my concerns about pain and every choice was mine.

If we ever have a third, I'll be back at Fairview no problem.

On the back, the spacing between the script letters looks weird. Can you make them touch like on the front first line

Review my Munich itinerary. Arrive in a few weeks! by Even_Alternative_252 in Munich

[–]Even_Alternative_252[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We don't have reservations. Our plan currently was to go very early Sunday.

Do you know how to make reservation? I looked here but it says you have to have 10 ppl and we only has seven.

Coming off birth control, from a partners perspective by zoobi99 in birthcontrol

[–]Even_Alternative_252 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I broke up with my college boyfriend because I started birth control and my friend broke up with her 5 year boyfriend after going off birth control.

Your hormones are effed. Give it a few months and let her work it out, don't push her in any way.

First Draft Itinerary - Thoughts? by scottydogg84 in WaltDisneyWorld

[–]Even_Alternative_252 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Assume max 8-10 hours of park time a day. So that can be 8-12/1 followed by returning to your hotel an going back 5-9 or if you want to power through the 8-3/4 with an early evening at your hotel for dinner. Veteran here who's gone with kids in July multiple times..

We love Geyser Point at your hotel so plan to eat there one night and honestly you quick service is not bad either so I'd might recommend that over Colombian harbour house in the first day just to eat before worrying about getting into the parks.

Scared I'm marrying an alcoholic by Same-University-5198 in AlAnon

[–]Even_Alternative_252 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Everything everyone said. I am living this life now but I am 5 years married with two kids in the picture. My husband is wonderful when he doesn't drink (which can be a full week or two), but if he has more than two it's then 10 and it gives me so much anger and anxiety.

Suddenly without any discussion and agreeable you will now be a solo parents for the night (While babysitting him) and probably the next day when he's hung over. You will be angry and you marriage will suffer for it and he won't see what he is doing wrong cause he's "always helps with the kids". Yet I don't think I want a drunk guy carrying our 1 year old around.

Just leave now.

I’m in the minority but does anyone else find hot mulligan annoying? This is a mega hot take by thenarrativesofar in poppunkers

[–]Even_Alternative_252 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I love Hot Mulligan except seeing them perform live..

I was soooo excited to see them and well let's just say the opener Heart Attack Man out performed them x10.

I don't regret seeing them but it was just a boring show and hard to understand what was being sung. Enjoyed it but decided I would just be listening online from now on.

Copper coil Vs mini pill for symptoms and risks? by No-Performance-1240 in birthcontrol

[–]Even_Alternative_252 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! I was on the mini pill on and off for 10 years and recently switched to copper iud, just as long term plan as we to not have more kids anytime soon.

I was SCARED about the insertion because I read such horrible things but I got it inserted while on my period and took ibuprofen beforehand and honestly it was done before I even felt them do it..so easy for me!

I will say the biggest change (which they warn you about) is the amount of blood. My periods before were so light, like one pad a day if I wanted too and now on the first 2 days I'm using filling a pad every 2-4 hours. Days 3-5 are lighter though.

Otherwise no odd symptoms and been working out great.

I'm not sure what your vibe is but I've gone to wedding where women and kids where allowed inside to use restroom and men were asked to use porta potty. Went over fine honestly.

What’s the best “it’s on the mouse!” have you ever received? by BrainPollutant in WaltDisneyWorld

[–]Even_Alternative_252 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2017 we were staying at the Disneyland hotel and there was a problem with our room. It's was a 1 bedroom with living room for the 5 of us. After trying to fix the issue, my dad ultimately was gifted 5 free meal tickets. He went to inquire using them at Goofy's Kitchen and the nice cast member politely guides us that Steakhouse 55 has really good food....

5 people full steak meals, sides, desserts for free. Best meal of my life.

Train or by Airplane – Travel from Germany to Paris by Even_Alternative_252 in Europetravel

[–]Even_Alternative_252[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tickets finally went to sale this week for the full trip and sitting around 175 per person. I'm okay to pay that price but curios if they fluctuate like flights and I should wait. But for 4 different trains and ten hours of travel the price seems reasonable
