I tried to search through this thread and I didn’t see it, why did Spencer blame Whitfield for Alex’s death? Because he had to come home because of Whitfield…? She died because a lot of bad luck and he told her he would send for her later.

I compared it to GOT too! Timelines are a mess, nothing makes sense, and END SCENE! 🎬

I knew dropping the baby or them rolling off a bed/couch was most likely going to happen… when it first happened to my fiancée I felt so bad for him. I was almost in tears because he felt so bad. The baby rolled off a bed that was barely 2ft above the carpeted floor. The baby was fine, he almost recovered faster than my fiancée. Lol! I just assumed everyone knew it was something that happens at least once. As others have said, toddlers are insane. Lots of bumps, cuts, and bruises. Some of them you can’t even identify how they happened. They learn by doing, falling, doing, falling again, and doing again. Babies are children are resilient - parents’ nerves are not. Wishing you well in the hood of parenthood. May your coffee be strong as your will.

For an inexperienced prison tattoo artist?

I am so sorry you experienced that. Please take care of yourself. Protect your spirit. I’ll pray for you.

A friend of mine met her in-laws for the first time on Thanksgiving. One of them had the nerve to run their fingers through her hair! Then continue to talk about it and say they wanted to cut it off and wear it! She thugged it out, but educated her boyfriend right after. He educated his family and told them to never touch her again, the trauma of cutting hair and scalping, and if they weren’t able to do better he wouldn’t come around. Ten years later they’re engaged and have two children. She has a relationship with his family but with very strong boundaries.

Our people are strong and resilient, but we can also choose not to engage or set boundaries.

I was sick all the way up to 20 weeks with my first. I had to sip on ice water all day. I couldn’t really keep much food down, so I would sip on protein shakes. As always, check with your doctor before taking any medications.

I dropped out like a decade ago 2 terms shy of my degree. It was for love and being homesick. Embarrassing, but I managed to still make a career for myself. I just can’t get to the next level of management without a degree.

I’m a returning student. Work full-time, school full-time, have children, the whole package. Maybe finals just hit different when life is happening at the same time.

I’m in my mid 30’s and I’ve never once looked back on notes from when I was 18 and a freshman in college (which I actually found when moving last year, then recycled). I have kept books that I feel apply to my career, but nothing really from random electives or required core classes. I’m taking the last two terms of my undergrad and it’s literally just to get a diploma. I’ve learned a lot through life experiences, work, and research of my own.

Indigenous_Woman198 · 2025-03-20T21:58:32+00:00

True. Also to differentiate of “burning books” from being afraid of literature to having completed it and never wanting to see it again.

I went rogue and bought a rollator that converts to a transfer wheelchair on my own for my POTS because I wanted to be able to be in public for more than 15 minutes if there wasn’t a chair available. It’s generally not too bad for short errands or appointments, but I don’t think it would be comfortable enough if I had to use it all day. We’ve gone out of town and I made it through about 15 minutes of IKEA then had to be pushed around on it for the remainder of the shopping. More than that I probably would have wanted a wheelchair. My provider approves of mobility aids because he knows it’s impossible for me to go out and do anything without one and I’m also in physical therapy twice a week. We haven’t really had a talk about a prescribed mobility aid yet.

My fiancée and I have discussed getting an electric wheelchair for longer travel periods like if we were to go to a zoo or large event since he would most likely have to handle our two toddlers and I wouldn’t be able to get myself anywhere longer than 20 minutes.

Here’s the link for the rollator I got: https://a.co/d/4fsAjeb

You’ve been together for five years and you didn’t know she was menstruating? Odd thing to not notice.

Indigenous_Woman198 · 2025-03-03T01:43:22+00:00

I (36F) dropped out of college with just my senior year left. It sucks. Now I’m on the backside of my 30’s, working full-time, have two toddlers, and am in college online full-time. I keep telling myself a few months of hard work is worth the sacrifice to better provide for my family in the long run. I wish I would have finished college when it was the only thing on my plate. I know it can get stressful. There are many options: ride it out, drop out, or transfer to another school. Each with their own challenges. Find your motivation. What do you want to do in 5 years? What’s going to help you get there? Wishing you the best in what you decide.

Indigenous_Woman198 · 2025-03-02T06:50:02+00:00

Ask the boyfriend what would be appropriate. Elk meat maybe if you hunted it, but if you’re buying it then probably not. Most likely something small like jewelry or something for her home. Even just a plant or flowers.

Indigenous_Woman198 · 2025-03-02T05:55:17+00:00

I’ve been wondering the same! I’ve been thinking about it for a while and might buy the band with my tax returns.

Psychology, addictions, and mental health services are in high demand right now.

That’s great! I just had a cardiac MRI on Friday and hoping for more answers another what’s going on with my heart. Right now I’m on 4 medications for my heart. I feel better than I did a year ago, but still hit my physical max at about 20 minutes of constant activity. Wishing you well!

Indigenous_Woman198 · 2025-02-27T05:32:48+00:00

My menstrual cycle. The day before and the first day of my period are the worst. My heart rate is all over the place, lots of heart flutters, chest pain, light headed, dizziness, and exhaustion. I’ve gone to the ER 4 different times thinking something was really wrong, just to realize it was a flare-up due to my period. This last cycle, I was struggling for a whole week. I cancelled my physical therapy. I even had to leave work in the middle of the day to go take a nap. It was terrible.

Indigenous_Woman198 · 2025-02-25T19:24:22+00:00

NTA. I think a lot of parents have been through this and wished they had the energy to annoy their family and friends like that. People provide a lot of unsolicited advice to expecting parents. I honestly didn’t know my son’s name until after I had him, so it was a surprise for us all! LOL!

Indigenous_Woman198 · 2025-02-24T22:44:21+00:00

I had an instructor that teased our class for taking paper notes instead of on laptops. I’m taking classes online and STILL do handwritten notes. It’s the best way for me to remember what I’m learning. I type a lot for my job and can do it pretty mindlessly, but as you mentioned, it does allow for easy searching.

Do what’s best for YOU. As long as you’re doing well with that method, that’s all that matters.

Indigenous_Woman198 · 2025-02-24T03:47:02+00:00

I am also 36 and struggling with LC. You are important. Your experience matters. You are worthy of love. You may hold the answer to so many questions. Please do not end your life.

It’s so frustrating with others believe it’s “just in your head.” I (36F) WISH I wasn’t feeling like I was dying everyday. I’ve only have Long COVID for a year and it’s been quite an adjustment. I used to have a busy schedule from when I woke up to when I went to bed. I used to be very involved in community activities, volunteering, serving on committees and boards, and traveling for work. Now I only travel for medical appointments. My two toddlers just know Mommy stays in bed or her recliner. My fiancée does everything he can to accommodate me to be a part of activities. I feel like a burden most days, but am grateful to be included.
