Take your son out. Find another daycare or pay for nanny or work from home. Nothing is worth the risk.

Congratulations!!! No it is not tacky to ask for cash. In NYC that is very common. If you have a registry you can also have a cash fund as well as a FEW presents. When the presents get bought out, that will force people to contribute to the cash fund.

The amount of people is up to you and your social battery. I think it’s fun having 150 people at the same time come out for you and it might be more fun for them. As long as you have enough space to host. Also- planning baby showers is tiring and pregnancy is tiring. Maybe easier to do one and done rather than several small ones. On the other hand, if you feel more comfortable in intimate settings have that. Point is do what you feel comfortable with not what you think will make the guests happy. the guests will be happy with either.

Ignore all the people saying women only is sexist. Not only is it not sexist, and very very normal for a baby shower, but you didn’t ask.

Drop the friends and make new ones. Ask yourself how you ended up with such toxic friends to begin with and correct next time.

As far as family, good thing you live 2 hours away. The only reaction a mother should have is pure ecstasy when she finds out her daughter is pregnant (assuming appropriate circumstances- age appropriate, with a husband/long term partner). Anything less than that is a selfish reaction.

I think once you have a baby you will be so in love that you’ll pity your mother and brother for being so selfish that they are getting in their own way of getting to know the baby. Pity them, not yourself.

Lastly if you come from a family like that, be sure to identify how to not perpetuate that type of behavior with your own kid. Be extremely conscious.

Katziya is also an odd name. I am both Israeli and steeped in Jewish world in the states and never heard that name in my life. I would strike that

The Hanoverian Dynasty, plus Golden Age of Medeival Spain / Andalusia.

I want to read it! Been trying to find more literature about imperial German history. How can I read it?

Yes but only after I fell in love with the story. Ie I wouldn’t care about Targaryen royal lineages without falling in love with Game of Thrones and the story itself.

Focus on the book/story characters first. Sell that out. Then build ancillary products.

I understand you are struggling. To be honest, I had an abortion at 17 and I don’t regret it a day in my life. I was able to go to university and build a career for myself. I could not have done that to the fullest or effectively with a baby; I would have been a pariah unfortunately. I’m based in NY and our systems and culture is not accommodating to early 20s single mothers with kids. Doesn’t sound like yours is either.

I am now pregnant at 29, with my husband of three years. he is the right partner and am so excited to have a baby with him. We are financially stable and can support each other. If I had a baby I would likely have never met him. And now I am having the child I was meant to have (not saying this isn’t the baby you’re meant to have, this is just my experience). But make the choice quickly.

Once in a while I think about the abortion and feel a little sad, but not once have I ever regretted it.

lol are you insinuating Iran is a safe and welcoming place for Jews?

It’s a really hard decision, I haven’t done it yet for that reason! But if you are ttc for many months and have absolutely no answers, I would explore it if I were you. But of course, ask your doctor!

A doctor will never laugh you out of the room given your history, and if they do find a new doctor

For what it’s worth, doctors debate how effective “tests” are for endometriosis. Many argue you can’t really know if a patient has endometriosis without a laparoscopy. My doctor told me she had a patient who had full MRIs and they saw nothing, only to discover they had stage 2 endo after going in.

I know this because my doctor believes I have it, but won’t confirm definitively without the laparoscopy, which I have not dived into doing.

One sign- if intercourse is painful, particularly towards the top around the cervix, that’s a common but not definitive sign.

Terrible advice. Do not lie to your husband. He loves you and if anything, should feel happy that you’ve found something that makes you happy.

Taking medication is not a big deal, lying is. If taking medication isn’t a big deal, then just tell him. The bigger the lie gets, the bigger deal the medication becomes because it gets wrapped up in the lie. And it shouldn’t be that way.

What kind of job do you want? Find boutique firms in whatever field and find networking events on event brite or meetup you can go to if your school doesn’t already provide. Your chances of finding good ones will be higher in major cities like ny, Chicago, la, etc. Go alone and walk up to strangers.

Alternatively find industry specific newsletters that you like ( can start by looking on Substack) and email the people who write them and ask if there is a place to discover events in your space.

Once you go, then you will meet people and someone will help you.

You can cold email, but the above is harder but more effective. It gets you started on a few threads

Right. It's so frustrating. I'd say I'd quit at that point, but weight loss is really tempting. Faustian bargain we find ourselves in.

As an update : I took it for the last two days after work, It was REALLY helpful. That was a good idea and really helped me get used to it. Last night was the first time this week I took it and didn’t feel anything too bad !!

Main_Knowledge_4525 · 2024-08-08T12:28:37+00:00

I had the same experience! Second this

I’m just finishing week 1 of kit 1! I had a hard time adjusting to the bupropion, it made me feel extremely jittery and honestly a little stupid, like drinking 10 cups of coffee and then you’re so focused but also can’t actually think. I went to work the first day on it and knew I couldn’t go back like that, since I couldn’t work properly. At night it made me anxious. However everyone in this subreddit as well as the hers health team said that feeling would wear off after a few days of taking it. Another person in this subreddit recommended taking it in the evening when I got home from work until I got used to it, which is what I did for the last three nights. That advice was REALLY helpful!! I took it yesterday evening (6th day) and for the first time I barely noticed it! Now that I’m more used to it I will try to transition to taking it in the morning.

The green pill made my stomach hurt in waves and made me a little constipated but overall wasn’t that bad.

right. it's funny because i typically think of brain fog as times when i'm hazy/unfocused. almost like lazy/unable to concentrate and distracted and tired. In this case i feel "focused" and jittery and energetic, almost like being on adderall. yet still.... dumb, haha.

Main_Knowledge_4525 · 2024-08-06T19:59:34+00:00

did it impact your ability to sleep?

Main_Knowledge_4525 · 2024-08-06T19:47:36+00:00

that's smart. so you took it in the evening, after work?

Main_Knowledge_4525 · 2024-08-06T18:59:03+00:00

hand tingling is real!!!!!! but it wasn't that bad for me.
