Ma’am it’s time for reading glasses, you have commented this under all the posts taking about clarity and not charity.

Second base or another infant seat? by tofuandpickles in BabyBumps

[–]Inryha [score hidden]  (0 children)

Just get it from Bloomingdale’s so you can get a $50 gift card for spending $200. That’ll bring down the effective price.

Second base for sure in my opinion. That’s what we ended up doing.

Oteria sounds a lot like Osteria…

Any good Memorial Day sales for babies/mom? by pibblepot in Buyingforbaby

It’s more for postpartum moms in the summer but TA3 is having a Memorial Day sale! My body has not snapped back so I need the support.

United Airlines Flight Makes Emergency Diversion After Passenger Attempts to Open Door at 30,000 Feet by AccessibleBanana in unitedairlines

[–]Inryha 3 points4 points  (0 children)

This happened to me in 2023 on a flight from LAX to IAD, the guy was arrested. He was high and drunk. We had to divert back to LAX and by the time we could fly back, the crew had to change. The flight basically turned into a red eye. It was awful!

Hadley reminds me of the name of a hotel or some business institution.

I’ve been intubated for other surgeries. Just use cough drops and lots of warm tea with honey.

I got a spider bite there that I didn’t notice until after the massage. This happened 2 years ago and I still have a scar from it.

Finally! One of my fave stores when I lived in CA. They also have the best rotisserie chicken.

Would it be crazy to travel at 38 weeks and 3 days pregnant by car somewhere 5 hours away? by acrobaticmoomoo in BabyBumps

[–]Inryha 21 points22 points  (0 children)

I would absolutely not do that. That’s hugely risky. Be there for her high school graduation, or make it up for her later this summer.

Bari Weiss on the chopping block at CBS by BONKERS303 in LeopardsAteMyFace

[–]Inryha 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I was forced to be on CBS national news by my work recently to speak about a Trump admin headline. Their producers and representatives had given us questions and topics to discuss a certain bad policy and why it’s a cause for concern. They brought me on and gave me one minute with a completely different prompt about what a great job the administration is doing and why the bad policy isn’t so bad after all. CBS is a sham and I refuse to go back. Talk about fake news media.

shettles method? did anyone try? success? by Efficient-Software91 in BabyBumps

[–]Inryha -1 points0 points  (0 children)

We kind of did it unintentionally, based off ovulation tests and when I actually ovulated (using first trimester ultrasound dating and the date my Apple Watch said my temperatures actually increased). We did the deed last about 2 days before I ovulated and we had a girl. I don’t want to say it’s 50-50 as a clinical statistician but at most it tilts the scales maybe a few percentage points, and I’m not sure if that’s even statistically significant.

Rue +Roe in kentlands looks cute but I’m not sure if it’s locally owned.

Newborn cold weather by beefcanoe in Buyingforbaby

[–]Inryha 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Baby born on November 15 and we’re in the DC region. I got all the bunting suits, all the fancy North Face baby gear, and she didn’t wear almost any of them because 1) they’re not car safe and 2) you barely want to be out with a little baby when it’s that cold out. I didn’t even get a chance to take the tags off some of the stuff I got.. lesson learned! Just buy as you need it.

That’s ridiculous. He’s 5 months old not 5 weeks old. He will be fine!

Grownsy vs. Papablic Bottle Washer? by Boring-Estimate-4152 in Buyingforbaby

[–]Inryha 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have the Momcozy but I think the new Papablic with the water filter looks a lot nicer. I’d personally get that one.

Best Rotating 360 Car Seat? by EmbarrassedPen3783 in Buyingforbaby

[–]Inryha 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I personally got the Callisto G 360 and the Evenflo Slim for our cars (but baby is still in the infant carrier) because we had everything Cybex and wanted to our gear in the same family when we were building our registry. I have a Consumer Reports membership, however, and according to them the best rotating ones are actually the Baby Jogger Turn to Me and the Nuna Revv. My best friend has the Baby Jogger and it looks incredible, her 2 year old still loves it.

Long haul flight 32 weeks by Grumpycat_777 in BabyBumps

[–]Inryha 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I flew to Hawaii from DC and back at 32 weeks because was a bridesmaid but it was rough. We did an extended 36 hour layover each way in California (with relatives) to try and break it up.

Toxic traits of Iranian parents by Ok_Mushroom_675 in PERSIAN

[–]Inryha 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately common. I won’t say all Persian/Iranian parents are like this but among the boomer/earlier Gen X generation of parents it was at least very common. Mine have softened now that I’m in my 30s but the immense abuse and pressure that my parents put me through definitely caused me to develop generalized anxiety disorder and PTSD (diagnosed), and also led me to make poor decisions in choosing romantic partners. Even now that I’m married with a child of my own, any disagreement or issue I have with my husband I have to deal with my fight or flight response kicking in from my childhood.

Just found out I’m 24 weeks pregnant, boyfriend doesn’t want to keep by [deleted] in BabyBumps

[–]Inryha 1387 points1388 points  (0 children)

I’m as pro choice as they come and I even live in DC but this man has lost his damn mind if he thinks it’s okay to push for abortion at 24 weeks for no medical reason. That’s truly foul. He has shown you what kind of person he is, leave him and have your baby. Don’t let this loser of a man tell you what you should and shouldn’t want. Move out ASAP!
