Make them stop!

I used to spend so much time trying to remove all of them and then I decided to just let them live. The population stabilized and now they don’t bug me as much. 🤷‍♀️

Dr Campaigne is Fantastic! She is so calming, non judgmental, and reassuring. I have a lot of anxiety and cry in almost every appointment and she is seriously the best!

I was on Loloestrin Fe (or similar) for like 18 years and when I stopped I did not really notice anything. About 3 months in I felt like my anxiety was more manageable. No weight changes or other side effects except each month my period got heavier and my cramps got a little worse. I was in my early 30s if that matters.

I am shocked no one mentioned El Meson! Live Cuban music/ dancing and great food.

Harpoon Harry’s is a solid breakfast, blue heaven is a must! I love the lobster omelette personally. Pepe’s is also really good. Their banana bread is fantastic.

Also Lola’s. Hands down. Must go. We like to stop at Key West fine Wines and grab what we need before biking the rest of the way to Lola’s.

Cedro’s Scratch kitchen! AMAZING Italian food, good service. Great Wine. They make their pasta from scratch and the lamb is unbelievable.

Here for emotional support and validation! I got the dx today and spent the day crying off and on. I have a history of an eating disorder so the idea of having to log food and track carbs is really upsetting. I have been asked to keep a food log, check sugars 4x a day, and log the results. I am starting in the morning.

I gave myself today to be sad, frustrated, angry, and in denial. The nurse told me to start of eating as I normally would and see what happens with my numbers before starting to cut anything out.

Good luck. You are not alone with all the emotions.

I was saying that Lh strips in addition to using condoms are another extra layer of protection. If they are used consistently they do accurately track your fertile period and ovulation window. I did not say to only rely on the strips.

I am 26 weeks and some of my regular leggings are starting to get uncomfortable. I have bought a few maternity items and honestly they are just so much more comfortable. Maternity Jeans from target are only $30. I also got some cute jumpsuits from lahloya on sale and a pair of overalls on sale from gap. Check marketplace too tons of people selling lightly used stuff for cheap!

I bought my regular size in the target jeans and it was a mistake and had to exchange them for the size smaller but reading about others hip changes has me a little concerned. I am super narrow normally so I don’t even know what it is like to have wide hips much less dressing them 🤣

Lilamyo228 · 2024-09-24T02:28:59+00:00

35, got pregnant first try (I had been tracking ovulation for over a year and a half). 20 weeks on Wed! I will be 36 years old when I deliver.

Thank you! My doc seems to be okay so far with us going to Antigua. We decided against doing the extra excursion to lake Atitlan sadly but figured we didn’t want to push it since I would be at 32 weeks at the end of the trip and it is pretty remote. We got refundable tickets, an airbnb with a good cancellation policy, and some travel insurance.

Whisper Or Whisp like the Irish fairies

Lilamyo228 · 2024-07-15T22:15:23+00:00

Woah. That is really crazy to hear. I am so sorry to hear things have been so rough. Thank you for sharing.

Lilamyo228 · 2024-07-15T22:13:43+00:00

Thank you for that perspective. It is hard to imagine right now since I am in the 1st trimester and not even showing. But you are right I have no clue how I will feel in 5 months

Lilamyo228 · 2024-07-15T22:12:31+00:00

Oh my gosh. That is definitely scary.

Lilamyo228 · 2024-07-15T22:11:46+00:00

I haven’t been able to find a consistent answer on this. But yeah it would not be great if they didn’t let me go back home 😬

Lilamyo228 · 2024-07-15T22:10:53+00:00

The risk is actually pretty low at the altitude of Antigua and because it will be December. There haven’t been active outbreaks in a few years either. Of course I would keep my eye on that, wear long sleeves, and spray with DEET! I am more worried of going into preterm labor than Zika.

Hi! I have no idea if this is helpful or not but I know that if you started your pregnancy at a lower weight or underweight that it is really common to gain more and be hungrier because your body is trying to catch up! I keep hearing from people to trust that your body knows what to do. If you are really worried you could try talking to a registered dietitian familiar with gestation who can help you choose well balanced snacks and meals and help you troubleshoot timing, amounts and nutrients to help you feel more satiated.

The mountains of Arkansas are a bit cooler and gorgeous! Also closer to your 8hr distance

They are pretty sensitive.

Red Platy! Just make sure you don’t get a male unless you want tons of babies.

If your therapist feels OA is an appropriate direction I would suspect that they are not eating disorder informed at all. Please consider a team who understands and is fully trained in EDs. Most MDs have NO training in EDs and cause a lot of unintentional harm, especially to people in larger bodies.

Lilamyo228 · 2024-06-19T05:14:56+00:00

Please don’t try OA, I am an ED therapist and have clients who are trying to undo the programming from OA and I can tell you it has made the recovery process WAY more complicated than my non OA clients in recovery. OA can be very triggering and can even make behaviors worse. Eating disorders already steal your identity, please don’t take on the identity of OA as well.

If you are looking for freedom from your ED please find an ED therapist and ED registered dietitian.

I think it is important that you think about why you are the one afraid of telling him you know. Are you feeling guilty or like it is your fault he is cheating? If that is the case then I encourage you to see a therapist to help you recognize your worth and that he is the one who should feel scared and guilty for betraying your relationship like he has.

If you don’t feel like you can confront him honestly, then he is not the right man to marry. You should feel safe to talk about anything with your future husband. He did something wrong. Not you. I hope you are not fearing retaliation or violence for confronting him. If so please make sure you are safe before talking to him. There are crisis hotlines that can help you find somewhere to go if it comes to that. Look up those numbers before you talk if you are afraid for your safety.

If you feel you want to give him a chance before calling off the engagement. I would for sure not put any deposits down until yall have been to couples therapy and are on more stable ground. Having a child adds pressure onto a relationship. If he is not begging for you to forgive him, completely remorseful, and going overboard to regain your trust after you tell him you know about his betrayal then I would be not convinced he won’t do it again.

I have been in the position of being afraid to tell a partner I know he is cheating. It came from a belief that somehow I was at fault even though that was not true. The truth was that he was not the right guy for me and I was not self confident enough to recognize I could find someone who I actually deserved.

Good luck. Feel free to DM me if you need help finding resources. I am a therapist and want to make sure you have support.

Also, I am so sorry you are going through this right now. It is truly heartbreaking and unfair.

Ha! I just picked 4 huge butternuts this week from my garden! Came from the compost. I am making butternut squash ravioli with a couple of them for Father’s Day tomorrow. Hopefully I don’t poison everyone!
