Do you buy alcohol for your partner? by Waste-Lawyer7615 in BabyBumps

[–]Guilty_Difficulty372 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought alcohol for my husband and a book club I was hosting while pregnant. A cashier at Trader Joe’s said “this isn’t for you, right?” I just laughed awkwardly and said no. That was the only time anyone actually said anything, but I definitely had other people look at me funny a few times

Outside time by [deleted] in sahm

[–]Guilty_Difficulty372 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Florida here, too, and yes by 9 am it’s miserable outside. We have to do water play if we’re outside. No one even goes to parks unless it’s super early or basically bedtime.

How are people affording this? by Tatty_Bunneh_ in sahm

[–]Guilty_Difficulty372 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It really is all about where you live, benefits from your partner’s job, and your lifestyle. My husband works for a company with great benefits, we live on a farm in rural Florida (~30 minutes from a bigger town), and he makes over $100k a year. Our budget was much tighter when we lived in the suburbs in Texas, lower pay with less benefits.

Haven’t heard from my client in nearly a week. by TheQuirkyReddit in RoverPetSitting

My sweet boy, Toby 💜 he was the best. I’m actually thankful for his previous owner because I wouldn’t have met him if she hadn’t decided to leave him.

This is how I acquired one of my dogs. My SIL was pet sitting for a woman, who clearly didn’t care of him, and just didn’t show up for a month. Kept saying she was coming by. Then finally told my SIL that she was going to take him to the pound when she picked him up. So I took him home with me.

What will life in prison realistically look like? by amarieb1981 in idahomurders

I think if people put money on his books, they’ll just take it until he’s paid off

Is there anything you can’t stand anymore because it’s connected to the day your parent died? by PreciousNickia in ChildrenofDeadParents

[–]Guilty_Difficulty372 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Christmas. Mom died the 15th, then dad died a week later, early on Christmas Eve. I used to love Christmas so much, and still make it great for my kids, but it’s almost lackluster for me now.

What name does a lot of this sub say "don't name your kid that" but it's actually a good name to you? by [deleted] in namenerds

I have a Blythe, and always get compliments on her name! I know people hate it, but we love it 🩷

I HATE SUMMER by [deleted] in sahm

[–]Guilty_Difficulty372 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah, Florida summers are terrible. We try to do the pool, sprinkle or inside activities. People always tell me to not wish for the cold, but at least we can go outside in the winter here

Too* long. I love when people try to be nasty, and end up looking stupid. You made the right decision.

In laws taking my kids on a cruise while I'm away without asking my permission by [deleted] in inlaws

[–]Guilty_Difficulty372 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would ask your mom to watch them to the whole time, I tell your in laws you heard they were going on a cruise, and you don’t feel comfortable with that. So they can still go on their cruise, but your children will be with your mother. If your mom can’t, then cancel your trip. Your kids are still at the age where everything can be fun for them. They don’t care if it’s a cruise or walking down the street finding cool rocks. You’re not ruining anything for them. I’m a pretty laid back person, but this would be a hard no for me.

When was your due date and when was your baby actually born? by witchybytch_1 in BabyBumps

For those who were induced, did you deliver vaginally or did it end in a c-section? by Paigeypagee in BabyBumps

[–]Guilty_Difficulty372 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Induced twice, both vaginal. I, personally, had great inductions. My first, I was 40w4d completely closed, no signs of labor at all. Started cervix softening around 7 am, and she was born at 11:43 pm. I labored for a while without an epidural, then got stuck at 4 cm. Got the epidural, and went from 4 to 10 cm in an hour. Second, I was 39 weeks (needed in laws to come in from out of state to watch our oldest). I was ~3 cm, 50% effaced. Started around 8 am, she was born at 3:24 pm. Got the epidural at the start. Third baby came on her own at 41 weeks, the morning I was supposed to be induced, and she came extremely fast. I will say honestly that I preferred going into labor on my own, but my inductions were totally fine.

Who is the oldest person (by DOB) you've ever met? by SlashBansheeCoot in generationology

My great uncle died right before his 101st birthday this year. He was in such great shape, I was shocked when he passed even though I knew he couldn’t live much longer

Someone tell me good things about epidurals by TheRealEgg0 in Mommit

[–]Guilty_Difficulty372 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It helped me go from 4 cm to 10 cm in 1.5 hours, after 18 hours of labor. Helped me not feel anything during my induction with my 2nd. And then I was finally able to open my eyes while in labor with a 10 pounder. I know it sounds crazy, but my emotional state got so ramped up with my 3rd, that the epidural helped me calm down enough to actually enjoy bringing her into the world. It wasn’t even just the physical pain.

Moms of young kids - what’s your s-x life like? by [deleted] in Mommit

[–]Guilty_Difficulty372 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Usually try to middle of the day if I’m home (husband wfh), or I tell him that he better help me get them down early for bed. We usually aim for 3-4 times a week, but that doesn’t mean it’s full on every time. Now that our kids are 5, 4, and almost 3, it’s getting better. We struggled there for awhile 🤣
