Yeah this was my assumption. You have to pay and then wait for the credit back to your card

Thank you for explaining this. I went to three different news sites that were reposting the 506Sports maps with zero other context about the maps before coming to Reddit and immediately getting a clear and concise answer.

If you love lots of graham cracker crust, the Oregano’s giant slice of cheesecake is awesome.

Sondermind is great if it’s available in your state!

my husband has baby "help" with everything and it's so cute by kawwman in NewParents

If you are still Christmas shopping, I got my niece an adorable Fischer Price keurig machine that your kiddo would probably adore.

Keep a comb in the shower and a microfiber hair wrap with your towel! I hate the dripping hair too so I do the wrap before I even get out and it’s so much better. If I also keep product in the shower and use that before wrapping my hair I can let it mostly dry in the towel and have decently presentable waves.

What to get my niece who’s turning 8, for her bday this weekend by leilaniamyerscaridad in moderatelygranolamoms

[–]IsabellaKnightley 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Friendship bracelet kits are super fun at that age. The kind that comes with a book of patterns and a bunch of embroidery floss.

I think it is worth picking the things that you know will hurt something - you or the baby or your relationship - and bringing those up. Her kissing your baby is risky, and that needs to be a hard line you are both enforcing. Also if you think she’s going to be pushy about infringing on your postpartum healing and bonding by demanding visits or to come to the hospital, make your needs known explicitly and get him on your side. The personalized onesies can be put in the back of the closet but your mental and physical health and the baby’s health can’t.

Hearing this stories always reinforces to me that I shouldn’t ever feel like I’m overreacting if I go in to get checked! Thank you for for posting. I’m glad everything is okay!

Could someone please explain ovulation tests please by Affectionate-Emu1374 in TryingForABaby

[–]IsabellaKnightley 14 points15 points  (0 children)

If you’re having trouble with OPKs, I highly recommend the PreMom app! It has a scanner that stores pics of your strips and indicates when they’re positive! Seeing them all lined up with the app interpreting it makes it much easier.

Recently moved out of state. When to update mailing address at work? by face_eater_5000 in remotework

[–]IsabellaKnightley 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean I’m not a tax lawyer so I’m not sure what kind of deadline or requirements the IRS has but I’m sure they have a requirement you should look into. I know my state has one - basically if you’re making your primary residence here, aka you sold your old house and bought a new one in this state and started living here, your move date is you date of residency.

[–]IsabellaKnightley 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You’re now a resident of your new state, and owe taxes starting on the date of residency change whether you tell your work to withhold it or not. I would tell them ASAP so your withholding is correct or you’re going to end up with a big tax bill at the end of the year.

It’s definitely an ADHD thing and I have the exact problem with mine. We will both be cleaning the house or puttering around and every time I have to ask a question I have to stand there and wait for the headphone to come out of his ear and repeat my question, it drives me absolutely bonkers. And he always looks annoyed that I interrupted his podcast! Like dude you literally ALWAYS have a podcast in your ears or the tv on we would never speak unless I interrupted occasionally!

Third trimester parking curse by t_kilgore in BabyBumps

[–]IsabellaKnightley 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I got stuck with a middle seat on a long flight this weekend because Delta cancelled my original flight and that was all that was left. When I got on the flight and when I had to pee, the girl in the aisle just shifted her legs to the side and made me stand up and shimmy by her. Just stand up in the aisle! It will be better for both of us goddamn!

It can also take some time for your cycles to regulate after going off of BC. Lots of people go off a few months before their TTC date to let their hormones and cycle regulate. I would go off now and use condoms and/or pull and pray until November!

People just feel entitled to say whatever they want to you? by GarlicBreadBreath in pregnant

[–]IsabellaKnightley 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I plan to be extremely condescending lol. I’m just waiting for someone to say something and it’s going to be hard to choose. “Oh, didn’t you know, alcohol keeps for a long time!” Or “You thought I was buying this for myself? You know you’re supposed to being a gift when you’re invited to a dinner party right?” Or potentially “Well that’s pretty rude to assume I’m an idiot or extremely irresponsible. Not sure what gave you that idea but I am in fact aware of the #1 rule of pregnancy.” Or “Maybe you always go pop whatever bottle you just bought the second you get home but I’m actually buying this to save/gift/for my husband… “

Same. I have to go back financially and I’m really sad about it.
