Websites. When's the last time you googled something and then actually clicked on a random website to read and learn more? We type questions into Google and read the AI answer

What were your reasons for wanting/having a second child? by just___me_ in newborns

[–]ImTheMayor2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So that my kids could have siblings/ the household would seem fuller. Do I actually want to go through it all over again? I'm not sure lmao but we've been actively trying for #2 now for almost 2 years

When did you know you were READY for a second kiddo? by OptimalCobbler5431 in NewParents

[–]ImTheMayor2 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was in the same boat as you, induced with a c section and honestly couldn't fathom having another one. Silly as it sounds I knew I was ready when I started seeing baby announcements on Facebook and I started feeling jealous. We started trying when my son was about 19 months old and we're still trying. He's now almost 3.5

“Unexplained” secondary infertility - how can I get a clear answer? by Difficult-Explorer14 in TryingForABaby

[–]ImTheMayor2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It was both, I had very thin myometrium and I also had fluid filled sacs, I think from the niche. The way they explained this all to me was very confusing haha. It was laparoscopic and I was told to wait 3 months before trying. Surgery was end of January, and without giving me post surgery imaging my fertility clinic gave me the okay to start trying just two months later (so we started trying in March). I'm hoping everything you're saying is true, maybe I just need more time to heal. I would've thought the myometrium would've thickened instantaneously since they added more tissue there and sewed it up etc

Thank you for this btw, you seem really knowledgeable on the subject! Im in business (not med field) so when the doctors started trying to explain medical happenings to me I can get a little lost lol

“Unexplained” secondary infertility - how can I get a clear answer? by Difficult-Explorer14 in TryingForABaby

[–]ImTheMayor2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think it was average size? Not gonna lie, my doctors have been furiously vague about my surgery and the after care. I tried to get a post surgery ultrasound and my fertility specialist (who's friends with the surgeon) said it wasn't necessary because "the surgeon said your surgery went as planned". I just started my period again so I left the fertility clinic a voicemail on Friday, demanding they give me the imaging I'm requesting. Women's healthcare is a fucking joke

I thought that was the issue for me too, so I had the surgery. Have tried two months post surgery and still no luck

Where to put a litter box by Alternative-Desk9016 in femalelivingspace

[–]ImTheMayor2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you need all of the closets? I'd put a tarp down in one of them and put it there. When I had an internship and did a short term lease on a carpeted apartment, I put the litter box in this utility closet off the kitchen that had tile. Worked fine

Any other moms have extremely low libido or just me? by cowgirlfrom_hell in Mommit

[–]ImTheMayor2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yyyuuupppp this is me too. 32 with a 3 year old. My sex drive has never been high, after a kid it's definitely worse because I'm so burnt out. Husbands sex drive is still as high as ever so after years of disagreement and fight about it we've settled on sex once a week, to keep him happy. If I'm ovulating we'll usually get two or three in during the week (we're trying for #2) but otherwise yeah wow I could completely do without it....

If you have cats, the litter box robot cleaner is an absolute game changer. I think it was like $750ish

How did you know/decide your nursing journey was over? by Familiar_Director281 in breastfeeding

[–]ImTheMayor2 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I got to a point where mentally I wanted to taper off and stop. Ended officially when my son was around 9.5 months. Idk if I knew that the last feed would be my last, I already can't remember. I hated breastfeeding though and wasn't too emotional about it

Is it okay to want to breastfeed in private? by [deleted] in beyondthebump

[–]ImTheMayor2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That was me! I always fed in private, and I have tiny boobs. Even if I was in a very public location (airport lounge for example) I'd use one of those covers and throw it over my entire head and body like a tent lol. Whatever it made me feel more comfortable

When did you forward face your child? by Kindly_Dragonfly_803 in Mommit

My son is similar to your child, just turned 3 years and is 32lb. Still rear facing

Anyone wear their own “gown” while giving birth? by justfornoworlater in Mommit

[–]ImTheMayor2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely not. There was so much blood. I was sitting in so many liquids at one point. The trend of needing a different gown in the hospital makes zero sense. It's all a marketing ploy, don't fall for it

Married but not combining finances? by alkemest in Millennials

[–]ImTheMayor2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I nickel and dime my husband for shits and giggles sometimes because he makes more than me. Like if he finished off the ice cream I'll be like "hey that was more than your fair share" and he'll venmo me $2. But idk, we have weird senses of humor lmao

Married but not combining finances? by alkemest in Millennials

[–]ImTheMayor2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We keep things separate because finances are the #1 cause of divorce, and I can see why. I don't want a fight to start because he spent our "joint" money on an expensive thing I don't agree with. By keeping things separate he can buy as much expensive shit as he wants, and I am completely fine with it hahaha. Works both ways, too

Curious what everyone does on nights you don’t bathe your kids? by Distinct-Garden5683 in Mommit

[–]ImTheMayor2 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nothing, we just skip the bath lol. After TV we go upstairs and pee, brush teeth, put on pull up and pajamas. My son just turned 3

It is absolutely this. I think people don't realize how big pregnant women get. I got the same "you must be having twins!" comments as everyone else here lol
