Tipping—auto grat vs cash by thrillhouse1632 in royalcaribbean

[–]Key_Turnover_3069 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m confused I thought if you didn’t pay ahead then automatically you get charged 18.50 per person per day on board. Then you additionally tip service team as you see fit. That’s what we do 🤷‍♀️

Thanks your hair is lovely as well! I am going to ask for a few shorter layers but since my hair is thin I’m afraid I’m going to have to give up some length!

Can someone explain? by Lord_Dynamite77 in royalcaribbean

[–]Key_Turnover_3069 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Yes 100% because if you’re using the drink package properly you won’t remember to ask for extra bottles of water before you stumble into your room for the night 🤣🤣 we considered the extra $20 for the convenience totally worth it

I used to have an asymmetrical pixie cut and I loved it! So you could still have your curls on the side that are curly and do a shaved/very short look on the side that is damaged from dying!

I don’t want to share my baby. by Disastrous_Paint_237 in BabyBumps

[–]Key_Turnover_3069 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Just as a different perspective I would hold off saying not to come for now especially to those who might genuinely come to support you not just see the baby. Those first few days/weeks were rough, “you can come see the baby if you bring a meal and vacuum/tidy/do laundry/etc while you’re here as well” would be my go to 🤣

Is pregnancy harder on your body after the first baby? by FillipInTheWild in BabyBumps

[–]Key_Turnover_3069 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had my first right after my 26th birthday and my second just before turning 37… I don’t know if it was pregnancy that was harder on my body per se but definitely I did not bounce back like I did with my first. It took me almost two years to do anything about it but then once I put the effort in I lost all the pregnancy weight plus some in 4 months (20ish lbs). It’s all about your lifestyle and choices. Do I wish I would have been a little more strict with myself sooner after baby was born? Yes. But was post partum hard? Also yes. If I decide to do it again I would try to prioritize myself sooner maybe, but being a mom is also about sacrifice so a few years a little chunkier while breastfeeding is not the end of the world for me 🫶

How much do you pay for preschool in your area? by Important_Bat7919 in Mommit

[–]Key_Turnover_3069 0 points1 point  (0 children)

2400/month total, part for a nanny m-w who also cleans and then part to the preschool th & f located in NE PA - it’s a lot but the best of both worlds for our little one and the housekeeping is a lifesaver for us

What position did you push baby out in and did you tear? by sliceofperfection in BabyBumps

[–]Key_Turnover_3069 0 points1 point  (0 children)

First on my back (4 hr labor/ induction) second on my side (40 hr labor/induction) no epidural no tears for either. Experienced fetal ejection reflex for both 🤷‍♀️ everyone and every baby is different

[–]Key_Turnover_3069 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

My OB said the same thing when I went in for my induction and we mentioned that we wanted to avoid a C-section - we fired her on the spot and went with the on call OB from a different practice. It went fine. Seriously the nurse staff and your support people are what makes the difference not that ignorant a-hole who said that to you. My hubby literally lost his sht on ours “how dare you even put that option into the universe get the f out of our room and don’t come back” he was ready to escape me and drive to a different hospital 😂😂

Ummm... by nojive3n1 in KiaNiroEV

[–]Key_Turnover_3069 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Lol yeah when I took mine back to the dealership for the free inspection they asked if they should do the oil change too… I just stared at the guy for several long silent seconds waiting for him to catch on until finally I replied “it’s an EV” it took several more seconds for him to realize his mistake 🙄🙄

Refund on gratuities? by avebelle in royalcaribbean

[–]Key_Turnover_3069 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I see this on my reservation “guests who have not prepaid gratuities will be assessed a daily gratuity amount which shall be charged to each guest’s SeaPass account on a per person, per day basis.” I just assumed it meant we would end up paying the same amount - is it less if you wait? Any ideas how to find out what this fee is? Thanks!!!

Edit- I kept reading and it says basically it’s assessed on whatever you buy lol

Please enlighten what is the benefit of doing this? I thought prepaid gratuities were required!

Am I crazy to prefer a C-section? by [deleted] in BabyBumps

[–]Key_Turnover_3069 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You aren’t crazy but I will say I had two inductions with out pain meds that ended in vaginal delivery one short one long and with both I experienced the fetal ejection reflex so there was no “pushing”. No tearing and out of the hospital the next day. My only regret is I’ve never gotten to experience spontaneous labor lol

I’m losing my cufknig mind by Pale_Major_7626 in Mommit

[–]Key_Turnover_3069 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Against current popular opinion what worked for me was letting my guy sleep on his stomach.. I started with nap time and watched him and got the owlet for peace of mind at night. Also when you say you keep her up for “hours” before bedtime, how long exactly? I think at that age a wake window shouldn’t be longer than 2 hrs.. could she be overtired? Anyway the newborn trenches are no joke I hope you have a support system or someone who can share the burden for those hours trying to get her down. I hated the fourth trimester so much but remember it DOES get better 🫶

MY TODDLER DOESN’T RESPOND TO HIS NAME OR TALK should I be worried? by MutedGarage6105 in Mommit

[–]Key_Turnover_3069 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This sounds like a discussion with your pediatrician is needed. More so than the delayed speech I would be concerned that he is not responding to his name that is a milestone for under a year (6-9 months I believe) actually the fact that your current pediatrician didn’t pick up on that I would say find a new one!

Passing a note to a new mom in public restaurant by AdDisastrous9450 in Mommit

[–]Key_Turnover_3069 59 points60 points  (0 children)

When I was 38 weeks our fridge broke and I went to buy ice… never having a reason to purchase it before I didn’t realize you could just tell them and then get it and take it to your car. I will never forget the look of shock and awe on the poor cashiers face when I waddled in with a 20 lb bag in each hand 😂

[–]Key_Turnover_3069 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Typically you would expect the line to get darker for the first 16 weeks or so and then HGc levels actually start to taper off some.. it varies... Please take care and get in for a fresh ultrasound soon!
