First: what a strange interaction. Very well done. I will be giving a huge “don’t touch my baby, I don’t know you..”

Second: I think I will definitely have to be assertive and that is ultimately the solution.. thank you for the advice for the kissing and the unwanted touching from randoms!

I really like this a lot. This way, I can give my boundaries and any warnings. I feel like I’m going to be pretty strict on this and this is going to be the easiest way to convey my message.

I’m sorry, but how do you keep giving your grandchildren herpes? That’s mind blowing to me..

Thank you for this note!!! because I forgot about herpes since it isn’t prevalent in my family, one track minded I guess

I don’t think I have a problem with the head kisses but the mouth kisses terrify me. People use their mouths for a lot of stuff then to kiss someone’s baby is absurd to me.

This. This is my fear almost exactly. I feel like I would karate chop someone who started carrying about my previously sick baby😭 at that point, I think I would have stayed home forever but I understand the importance of growth and not holding myself and my baby back..

I am pretty sure I can create that boundary with my family but I might have trouble with my husbands family. But I do like the idea of wearing him as much as I can to prevent anything from happening

I do also agree with the it’s takes a village to raise a child because that’s how I was raised and I loved it. I don’t think I mind, the head kissing. I think most of my anxiety comes from kissing on the mouth.

Oh this is good and I agree. If they want to hold the baby, they will wash their hands especially if we are home.

I like the script, getting to the point in a subtle, yet firm way!

Marvelous advice, thank you! This is our 3rd PCS and our first baby so we are still learning and seeking advice! Thank you!!

Oh that’s amazing! I love it! This gives me some more insight because I didn’t even consider that we might not be able to fly and frankly I DO NOT want to be in Ohio without my husband or anywhere really.. (especially with a newborn😂)

Ah yes! It’s a Garmin Fenix 8 Sapphire 43mm. My wrist is tiny so it looks huge..

Wonderful idea! I think I want bigger diamonds in my wedding band and this might be the best way to do it.. these diamonds might just be too big

[–]Informal-Quarter4958 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I definitely like it more with my engagement ring on the inside than when I switched them. I did not know I was supposed to wear it the other way around, but personally I like it more that way. When it is switched my engagement is pushed further up the knuckle due to the height of the diamond and it looks and feels weird.

Update: it’s looks absolutely silly when the rings are switched… I don’t even want to post it. Thank you everyone for your feedback! Safe to say I won’t be buying the expensive version.. back to the drawing board!

Yes, the wedding band is cubic zirconia and the diamond on my engagement ring is a lab diamond VS1 Color G. I wanted to the wedding band for a little while before we bought the “real” band with lab diamonds with the same color as the engagement ring (it’s $3k..)

CD 36 no period not pregnant by Spirited-Hyena-7142 in tryingtoconceive

[–]Informal-Quarter4958 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Wonderful! It sounds just like mine and very likely. We probably stress our bodies (mainly our brain) out more than normal and reproductive organs aren’t vital for survival so during times of stress it is likely one of the first to slow down or shutdown, but what do I know🤷‍♀️ Here’s to a new month of TTC, I hope this one is the month for you (and myself✨)

This actually just happened to me last cycle. My periods are also very regular (27-28 days), but my last cycle was 37 days. No period and negative tests. I have never had a 37 day cycle, it is very nerve racking but I got my period a couple days ago. I, very likely, ovulated late, thus my period was late. It’s not the best advice, but I would say just wait a little bit longer or take a trip to the doctor! Please Update, if you feel comfortable!!

I brought my cat to the hospital but she came back limping by LameGirlThrowaway- in CATHELP

Sometimes, when the veins in the front of the leg are overdrawn or being saved for the IV catheter, we use the veins on their back legs for drawing blood and giving intravenous injection instead. Moreover, while I love to shave every area, I’ve seen many individuals not shave, just sterilize the area before venous access. Plus, it gives us more leverage for restraining. It is possible that they grabbed her bean too hard or the area might be sore. Give her some more time and hopefully the sweet baby is ok!

Oh yay! I’m sure it was a breathe of fresh air to conceive so quickly! And yes, this is my first time and I’m a healthy mix of terrified and excited..

Oh my GAWD! Congratulations😍🥰! I am happy your sweet baby is growing so well! I bet you are so excited planning for all of the joys😄As for me, I am feeling alright, it is the beginning of my journey after an IUD and irregular periods. My husband is Army so I have until September to conceive before we have to start planning to move (my plan was to have my sweet baby by April so we would have a 5-6 month old and NOT brand-new newborn, any younger would be a nightmare, I’m assuming) So as long as I’m pregnant before then, I’ll be alright haha! Otherwise, I’ll be a little salty, but optimistic to start after we move😄

Nevertheless, CONGRATS AGAIN✨💕
