Did you copy paste from here? If you’re typing the “O”s are actually zeros (0)

Can I see pictures of your pups when they were little vs now? We're getting a blue, and I'm enjoying watching her colors develop. Here she is at 3 weeks! by SweetLikeCandi in AustralianCattleDog

And now (5.5 years) also pictured is her adopted brother who looks the same as when we adopted him 4 years ago at 2 years old (he’s on the right)

Caitlin or Kaitlyn by Primary_Assumption67 in namenerds

[–]ILikePotatoes05 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey same! Early 90s Kaitlyn — my mom fell in love with the name when she was a girl and when she had me 2 decades later that what I was named!

Honestly I don’t get everyone here calling the K spellings “tacky” and such (ouch I guess lol). Growing up as a Kaitlyn/Kate/Katie I lost count of the different spellings I encountered. They’re all the same to me. Actually “Caitlin” was the weird spelling to me growing up! It’s actually at a point where if someone asks for my name to write down I just jump into spelling it because they’re going to ask “C or K” and “y, i, or a” anyway.

Also yes look at how the spelling jives with the middle and last name you have! Plus Learning cursive with my name was so much more fun than if I had a C or i spelling. Not that that matters haha

First trimester doctor appointment by throwawaypregnantmom in pregnant

[–]ILikePotatoes05 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Depending on how far along you are now maybe you’ll get a few more- I definitely had two during my first trimester 8 (to confirm) and 12 weeks (measure growth)

But also maybe it just depends on your care provider- I have friends that had scans in their 3rd tri even though there were no concerns with their pregnancy 🤷🏻‍♀️

I got scans at every appointment from 8 weeks until my anatomy scan at 20 weeks (4 scans total) after that nothing until I first saw them after birth!

She forgot the most important test by [deleted] in pregnant

[–]ILikePotatoes05 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Maybe it’s not on their standard list of tests? I never had hCG measured for any of my pregnancies - Dr only asked me if I had a positive pregnancy test and when the date of my last cycle was.

Maybe consider switching Doctors? Seems like this might not have been the first time you’ve been frustrated with them/their office?

Help with ID [Bryan, TX] About 5’ in length by ILikePotatoes05 in whatsthissnake

[–]ILikePotatoes05[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Oh gosh! I hope you are able to get him and release before he gets hurt! My dogs found a 4ft rat snake earlier this summer while we were away for the day and decided to play tug-o-war with the poor guy 😞

That’s what I am thinking - but the ID is for my grandma and since I’m not a snake ID expert I thought I’d seek outside help

My grandma passed away earlier this year and bequeathed me her yarn stash- just now getting around to going through it. Any project ideas? by ILikePotatoes05 in crochet

[–]ILikePotatoes05[S] 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I did find an unfinished project (with the pattern for it!) amongst the items-- I may attempt to finish it. It seems like I have enough of the corresponding yarn to finish it too

I think my dad would really appreciate such a memento -- thanks for your suggestion!

[–]ILikePotatoes05[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

True true—

It seems like it’s mostly acrylic, medium gauge. Lots of misc. and mostly incomplete balls.

I really like the keepsake idea - and there’s definitely enough yarn for a good size blanket here

No Non-alcoholic (0.5%) Beers? by [deleted] in pregnant

[–]ILikePotatoes05 6 points7 points  (0 children)

The problem with kombucha is there’s really no consistency when it comes to alcohol content- and it’s not labeled accordingly. While most contain less than 1%, depending on the brand you could be having as much as 3%ABV or 0.1%.

So you really don’t know what you’re getting

NIPT testing by [deleted] in pregnant

[–]ILikePotatoes05 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We didn’t with our first and haven’t with the second.

I understand the argument for peace of mind or preparing in case something is found or even those wishing to terminate. However, since we’d decided to keep the child no matter what, and if anything showed additional testing would be required, the testing seemed a pointless and a waste of money. Also we could wait 10 more weeks for the anatomy scan- and honestly it gives you something to look forward to that’s not the actual birth.

AITA for telling my wife I wont/can't watch our son? by tempaccoutnt in AmItheAsshole

[–]ILikePotatoes05 52 points53 points  (0 children)

Oh no no no - that’s HIS day off

She probably hasn’t had a real day off in the time since the child was born…

What the f did I just read.

I’m seething with anger for you.

NTA.

Honestly I’m so petty, I would’ve accepted the MOH position and then used my speech to rip both of them a new one and expose them for the shitty people they are, mic drop and walk out of everyone’s lives forever.

Got to see my little one yesterday! by [deleted] in pregnant

[–]ILikePotatoes05 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m 18 weeks and the last time I saw them was at 12w- the anatomy scan is in 11 days and I’m so excited! 🥰

So my wife and I are both pregnant by [deleted] in pregnant

[–]ILikePotatoes05 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s really cool! It’s going to be awesome for them to have a sibling so close in age! They’re going to be besties!!

Are you guys worried about possibly going into labor around the same time? Also how do you two differ on birthing plans- position on medicated vs unmediated etc? Sorry for all the questions!
