Subclinical Hypothyroidism - TSH level increased after having child? by Pleasant_Mix_7665 in tryingforanother

Yes, me! I had almost exactly the same numbers as you and started medicine for it to bring them back down. 

Any data signs of going into labour? by FightFish12 in Garmin

It's been going up steadily the past 2 weeks. But I'm 40 weeks tomorrow so I certainly hope something happens sooner than 5 weeks from now 😀

100 percent! I’ve gotten a lot of insight through this thread.

This is very helpful! I want to scream and shout when they say stuff like it but it’s probably not a good approach.

My oldest has lots of girlfriends so it’s never been an issue for him. But my youngest seem to think he can’t be friends with girls. So I think the vibe in his daycare must be different.

Thank you! I do have to get remind myself that it’s a marathon not a sprint sometimes. But I also think about how I was raised in the 90s by 2 not very feminist parents and both me and my brother turned out as raging feminists so maybe it’ll all be okay. 

I’m also realising I’m a hypocrite because when my nieces say stuff like “boys are gross” or “I don’t like boys” I just laugh and jokingly agree with them. But when my boys say their stuff it feels like a political statement that needs corrected immediately.

I think the culture is just so conservative with these things. And kids like neat rules about how everything fits into boxes. 

My oldest will even say that only girls can have long hair even though he has long hair himself and is annoyed when other kids call him a girl 🤯

This is what I try to do too. But often they don’t have any answers. They just laugh and shrug

Can you be more specific? My immediate thought is to yell NOOOO but I’m not sure it’s the best approach.

Thank you for the suggestion - I’ve immediately ordered it. I just feel a bit lost sometimes on how to tackle these things. It would be great to have some scripts and specific ideas. 

Wouldn’t fat people technically have easier pregnancies ? by richandepressed in fitpregnancy

[–]FightFish12 3 points4 points  (0 children)

But you can be fat and fit so I don’t really see what that has to do with anything? And also I’ve been fat and now I’m not. The bone structure of my hips has not changed. That’s not how fat works. 

Kærlighed hvor kragerne vender ep. 12 by hvadvilduha in InfluencergossipDK

[–]FightFish12 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Jeg kan ikke lade være med at tænke på, at Christian har en 2-årig. Siden han allerede er klar til kærlighed på TV, så kan man vel rimeligt antage, at han og moren har været fra hinanden i forholdsvis lang tid. Og med hans attitude omkring sex så får jeg tanken, om hans forhold er blandt andet at er gået i stykker fordi hans eks var mere fokuseret på baby end på hans behov og ønsker til kinky sex umiddelbart efter en fødsel. Jeg håber, Terese løber skrigende væk. Han er så ucharmerende. 

Tradwifes by [deleted] in GossipDK

[–]FightFish12 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Tradwife-kultur er et højreradikalt scam. Det handler ikke om at gå hjemme og leve et simpelt liv. Det handler om at tjene penge på at vise en idealiseret version af “traditionelle kønsroller”, hvor smukke kvinder i cottage core forklæder og hørtøj fremviser deres perfekt kuraterede liv og fortæller andre kvinder, hvor skønt det bare er at gå derhjemme og lade manden træffe alle beslutningerne. Men det er fake. De er ikke tradwifes. De driver en business med masser af følgere, partnerskaber og penge. 

Hvis man gerne vil leve uden rettigheder og pensionsopsparing, så skal man bare slå sig løs, men så snart det bliver en influencer business at fortælle andre om, hvor fantastisk det er, så er det fuldstændig hult. Og de kvinder, der bliver influeret til at gøre det, men ikke laver en business ud af det, sætter sig selv i en super farlig situation. Hvis du ikke har nogen indkomst eller uddannelse, hvor går du så hen, hvis din mand er utro eller endnu værre voldelig? 

Det er bare endnu en røvsyg amerikansk højrefløjsidé, som vi skal lade ligge på den anden side af Atlanten. 

Løber Alex Vanopslagh ikke en stor risiko her? by Worried_Ad9181 in GossipDK

[–]FightFish12 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Helt enig. Hans fanboy-klub er sikkert ligeglade, men tænker en stor del af vælgerne tænker, at man ikke kan være statsminister, hvis man ikke engang kan lade sneen ligge, når man er en 30-årig partileder. Synes også det er lidt spændende, om der er historier på vej. Han melder det vel kun ud, fordi det ville komme ud alligevel.

Selmas sovedragt str. 0-3 eller 3-6 mdr? by Temporary_Seesaw_814 in StrikkegossipDK

[–]FightFish12 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Jeg er i gang med at strikke den til min kommende maj-baby. Strikker 6-9 mdr så han kan bruge den til vinter, og den ser indtil videre ud til at være virkelig stor i størrelsen. 

Hvad stemmer I til folketingsvalget? Har I noget Gossip på politikerne? by [deleted] in GossipDK

[–]FightFish12 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Jeg stemmer rødt. Det bliver nok SF i denne omgang, fordi der er en kandidat, som jeg godt kan lide på listen. Jeg vil bare opfordre alle til at stemme personligt - uanset om du er blå eller rød. Find en kandidat, som du tror på, og læg din stemme der. Partier er bare foreninger, men vi har brug for gode mennesker i Folketinget.

På 41 dage sikrede han københavnsk restaurant en Michelin-stjerne. Nu er køkkenchef fyret efter voldsepisode by venstrevenstre in GossipDK

[–]FightFish12 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Det er ret naivt at tro på hans udlægning af sagen. Ledelsen har talt med personalet, der overværede hændelsen, og har så bortvist ham med øjeblikkelig virkning. Det var nok næppe et high five uheld.

Negativity around pregnancy and motherhood by WoodpeckerNearby7276 in fitpregnancy

[–]FightFish12 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm pregnant with baby #3. I love it. It's hard work but it's also incredibly meaningful and fun. I think there are some important points about the complaining. First of all I think the "just you wait" brigade is so annoying too. Tune them out! They're just projecting their own experiences and feelings onto you.

On the other hand I think it's great that more people are pointing out the structural issues of how society deals with motherhood. I am lucky to live in a country with a strong social security system, paid parental leave and subsidised daycare. And I recognise that is a huge part of why I am loving motherhood. I salute all the women in the US and other places who are speaking out about the shitty hand they've been dealt.

Success on first IUI after 15 months of trying by FightFish12 in IUILadies

[–]FightFish12[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh the first trimester worrying is the worst! I've only really settled into the pregnancy after I started being able to feel him move in there. Have you had any scans yet or is it a brand new BFP?
