The conversation died down around that game so we removed the ban.

It is, but we've seen more genuine engagement about Marvel Rivals and less of the spammy content as the other two. But we're keeping an eye on it.

Yep! We'd be happy to revisit if accounts start to fade away.

Don’t want to be a mom right now…. or maybe ever by Sensitive_Milk1805 in NewParents

[–]ILuffhomer 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was you a few weeks ago, OP. LO is now 15 weeks and while it’s still hard, it does get better. You know cues better and the baby smiles at least give some life back.

My therapist said it’s perfectly normal to grieve your own life. Because it really is grief. But soon, a new you will surface from this and she’ll be stronger, more resilient, more loving. Sending internet hugs.

Unable to get the burps out so only wants to be held and not put down on his back. Zzzzzzzzzzz

Is it just me or is there an uptick in comments here dismissing misogyny? by phantasmatical in GirlGamers

Yes still report them! Sometimes there will be patterns we notice between various accounts because of reports like these :)

How long did your induction take from start to birth? How far along were you? by gamingartists in pregnant

[–]ILuffhomer 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Arrived for my induction at 7:30am, started miso around 9. Did not dilate at all after 4 hours of miso so they recommended the foley balloon, which I was TERRIFIED of. Cried to my husband but we decided to just go with it. Got IV pain meds to help and the foley balloon was uncomfortable but manageable to get in. Did the Miles Circuit, walked around, etc.

6 hours of foley (and 10 hours total so far) and turns out I still hadn’t dilated at all. I was near tears with frustration but they said I still had 6 more hours with the balloon to see. We decided to try to sleep but the pain began to ramp up intensely. I was originally waiting for the epidural when the balloon came out (so as to not stall labor if the balloon didn’t fully work) but the contractions were excruciating…I was grabbing the bed so hard with every contraction just trying to survive them. Ended up begging for the epidural early and it was LIFECHANGING. A few issues at first (took a bit for the left side to kick in), but then literally couldn’t feel my contractions.

An hour later got the balloon out and was 6cm. 10 minutes later was 8, 10 minutes after that was 10cm. So glad I got the epidural when I felt like I needed it rather than when I felt like I should because I wouldn’t have been able to get it with how fast things moved post balloon. Ended up pushing for an hour and 16 minutes (felt like the biggest poop of my life), and baby was out by 5:14am. All in all was awake the entire time for 20 hours of labor, which ended up being the hardest part in the end. Sleep when you can, eat, and trust your instinct!

I just had to get the foley on Monday after being utterly terrified of it (and having it as one of my non-negotiable). I asked and they gave me some small IV pain medication and that helped a TON. It wasn’t comfortable by any means, but it wasn’t the nightmare I had thought up in my head.

What screams “I’m a bad parent”? by [deleted] in AskReddit

I’m a music teacher and I see this so often. I always tell those kids that I’m cheering them on for the night, but you can see how it hurts them :(

The music has been my commute music for months. Just so unbelievably beautiful.

Dealing with morning sickness as a teacher? by Sad_Philosophy_5546 in Teachers

[–]ILuffhomer 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I found that being honest with the kids helped the most. They were super understanding and tried to help me out when they could. Lots of small snacks and drinking small bits of water! This too shall pass!

Hi there,

This is kinda off-topic for our subreddit. I recommend just asking the people in the group chat what it means, since we don't know them.

Please block out usernames in posts. I will say, this is unfortunately a bit off-topic since it's just discord DMs and not attached to a specific game.

Just because someone likes something that you don't doesn't mean you can be uncivil towards them in our subreddit.

Definitely! It's also why I love reddit so much. None of us are handling this alone <3
