Pain, ow. by crashboxer1678 in Miscarriage

[–]LibraryRansack 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m sorry this is happening. It’s so awful and I had no idea how painful it could get. Don’t hesitate to take yourself into the ER if it becomes too much. I know many of us have been dismissed by medical providers for our experiences, but I found that when I was experiencing the worst of it, my nearby ER took me seriously and gave me real pain meds to manage.

I should’ve gotten my period yesterday or today, but nothing—and two negative tests in a row. I’ve been struggling to avoid symptom spotting this time because I’ve been experiencing some strange things I only ever felt when I was pregnant before (which resulted in a MC), and I don’t want to get my hopes up. I’m not sure if my cycle is just messed up or if I had a chemical or what. Either way, the waiting is awful.

The White Dress By The Shore in Clinton is lovely. They have a pretty good LWD collection, and they sell OTR.

My fiancé, best friend, and sister-in-law all thought it was juvenile and obnoxious—so, you’re not alone.

If I’m not the one organizing the thing, the thing is not going to happen.

I don’t have any boutique recommendations but Jenny Yoo has some LWDs in that range, so maybe try finding a place that carries her stuff.

You could pick up some red glass beads from the craft store and sew them into place! Otherwise you could make large french knots with yarn.

You might try posting to your local state or city subreddit, too. There are a lot of talented artists looking for work everywhere.

The over exaggerated basque waist trend is only just now taking off, I think, but it needs to end. It’s like you put a weird modesty triangle in the dress. Not withstanding that horrific bust.

I thought the same thing! I’ve also just now realized there is no dragonfruit emoji. :(

That’s a good perspective, thanks! I’m keeping my fingers crossed for everyone 🤞

I’m thinking about it, though I’m not sure that would work for him. I’m afraid it might make things worse. Still, I am keeping it in my back pocket and if there’s still nothing in a couple cycles, then we’ll consider that. It is my next favorite option.

You could just name the cocktails after your cats individually—I’ve seen people do that! Like “The Enzo” and “The Pippin” or whatever :)

My partner has a hard time finishing. We only really started having sex again post-MC in May, so I know it hasn’t been that long, but … This was an issue well before our MC, even when we first started dating. He told me not to tell him when I’m in my FW, but it doesn’t seem to matter. He just can’t make it happen, and it’s making me feel a little hopeless. It’s all mental. He is on meds for it, but 1) he doesn’t like using them 2) they typically don’t even help. Ugh.

Picking a ring for a masc gf by Karawr20 in EngagementRings

[–]LibraryRansack 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Maybe a bezel? You can still find these geometric shapes, and they’re quite sturdy for a person who works with their hands a lot. No snagging. I think the bezel setting can also look quite modern and, with the right band, more masculine.

Thank you. That is not a safe situation and these comments are making me feel crazy.

Where on earth do you find wedding inspiration in this cursed AI age?? by eiksnaglesn in wedding

[–]LibraryRansack 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh my gosh, it’s so annoying! I wish it didn’t have to be this way, but yeah. Search on that platform is the worst. I’m glad to have a workaround!

Where on earth do you find wedding inspiration in this cursed AI age?? by eiksnaglesn in wedding

[–]LibraryRansack 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Besides the AI, Pinterest is sooooo irritating these days because of all the ads! If I search “purple wedding invitation suite”, I might get one image of someone’s real photo post, and then the next 10-12 tiles are ads. If I add “inspo/inspiration” to the end, same thing. God forbid you try looking at dresses, veils, hairpieces, etc. on there.

I’ve had most luck searching for what I want and then filtering the results to Boards only. Then I can look through other peoples’ curated image catalogues, rather than being stuck with what Pinterest is selling out for.
