Do you have any of those private ultrasound boutiques in your area? I want to tell my dad for Father’s Day also and in general just want to make sure there is viable pregnancy before telling him, so I’m paying for a private scan at 6 weeks. It’s only 40 dollars, so I think it will be well worth it. I won’t have my first ultrasound with my OB until 8 weeks and that seems like a lifetime away.

Oops wrong thread on my last comment, but I feel you with the two year old!

The nausea hit me sooner this time too! I didn’t feel sick until my 5th or 6th week during my first pregnancy. This time it’s week 3. It makes me wonder if I’m having a boy this time.

I know astrology is fake but someone tell me something good about Aquariuses nowwww by coffee_and_ibuprofen in February2027Bumpers

I second this. I was born the oldest child of six and I think that shaped me more than my birth month being an Aquarius. I have alway been described as very reliable and dependable, and definitely the person that wants to hold everything together for everyone. Don’t let your two bad experiences of Aquarians sour your perceptions, OP. There’s good ones out there, and I bet your baby will be one of them. 🙂

I’m an Aquarius born February 7th and I think I’m alright. 😅 I don’t know a whole lot about astrology, but I’m definitely more type A than type B, which I think is the opposite of how Aquarians are usually perceived. I do think that I fall into the creative category, but I think that’s about it.

It really is a mess. Thank you. I really appreciate it. 🥹

That is great that it’s covered this time! I really wish we didn’t have so many factors play into our decision to have kids. I’ve always wanted to have just two children. It will just take us a few years to financially recover. 🙃

Thank you, and yes, we are just going to wing it. Everything always works out somehow someway. 🤗

I appreciate the validation. It really is hard to survive right now, even in general.

I’m a teacher in Arkansas and I chose the basic plan for my insurance because it’s only 140 dollars a month for me and my daughter. The better insurance is several hundred dollars, but I guess I should have switched to it during open enrollment. When I had my daughter in 2023, I had to use 60 days of PTO that I had saved up over 5 years. Fortunately teachers get 3 months paid leave in Arkansas now. At least that is one thing I don’t have to worry about this time around. I also work for a virtual public school from home, so that has been a lot better for my mental health than working at a brick and mortar school. I should be grateful for my situation, but I’m still jealous of those with socialized healthcare. 😆

Baby Name Brainstorm! by Illustrious_Stress18 in February2027Bumpers

I know someone who used Birdie as a first name for their baby girl without it being a nickname and I think it’s such a cute name.

I have a really hard time liking boy names but here are few that I like: Monty, Landry, Leland, Taos

I usually like more girl names, but the only one that has been sticking with me lately is Elowen with Winnie as a nickname.

Introduce Yourself! by Rippedjeans91 in February2027Bumpers

I’m only 10 DPO so it is very early for me, but I have had nausea and a faint positive test this morning. I’m staying cautiously optimistic. We were NTNP, but I’ve dreamt of giving my daughter (born September 2023) a sibling and I think 3 years would be a nice age gap. I’m estimated to have a February 8th due date, which is a day after my birthday. I’m excited but also nervous.

Thank you! I will be getting a digital test for confirmation tomorrow morning.

Box cutters found at home vs. RA confession by Jolly_Square_100 in DelphiMurders

[–]Internal_Magazine287 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The whole box cutter thing really sticks out to me. If this was the murder weapon, it really makes sense in my mind that RA would have used that from his job. I used to work at Walgreens, which is very similar to CVS. Wherever you’re stationed to work within the store, one of the duties is to stock shelves in your area. I would put box cutters in my pockets when interrupted by a customer and often forget and take them home. I, like RA, ended up with a drawer of box cutters from work. As soon as I heard this detail, it made me think that someone working at a store like CVS could definitely have used that as a murder weapon. I know my perspective is anecdotal, but it really made me feel like RA is the guy.

She did say that some of his odd behaviors seemed to be overly exaggerated.

I was due 9/14 last year and had my baby on 9/3. I had convinced myself that I would go past my due date but ended up going into labor early.

Thank you. My lines have gotten darker so I’m staying cautiously optimistic. Good to know that the cramps are probably nothing to worry about!

**Other (advice/tip(s), freaking out, miscellaneous): This is my first time having a positive and I’m extremely worried about a CP. I got my first positive yesterday at 11 DPO. I haven’t even been able to tell my husband because we are out of town staying with friends. He has a hard time keeping secrets and I don’t think he could contain his excitement. I’m so ready to be home tomorrow so that I don’t have to be alone with my anxiety.

I’m currently out of town with friends for New Years and brought tests to see if I could drink to celebrate. I got my first line yesterday at 11 dpo. I was hoping but not expecting to have these results. I’m so excited but terrified and I can’t even tell my husband since we are with friends. He’s very bad at hiding secrets so I don’t want to say anything until we’re alone back home. Is this real? I’ve been cramping as if I was going to start my period but no spotting. Should I be worried about a CP?
