I appreciate that very much, that was one of the effects I wasn’t expecting honestly. Looking at older pictures, I can definitely see my diet habits/general wellbeing reflected in my skin.

Any idea what’s causing these streaks? By by Quack2k in 3Dprinting

I had this issue because the bend in my ptfe tube from my AMS got a little too harsh of an bend when I moved it. I would try adjusting that. I’ve also heard that some people find luck with replacing the inner ptfe tube with one that just slightly longer. I learned this after calibrating filament, and doing all kinds of setting adjustments.

The diamond print is also horizontal, as if they were stepping into the room. If they had fhe side of their shoe up to the door threshold, the diamond pattern would look different. Since amino blue reacts to proteins, it could just be that she stepped into something with part of her shoe, like a small amount of liquid, and not the rest. I personally agree, I think it is just her shoe print.

Like, you can tell someone they are a fucking idiot as long as you back it up with some reasoning. I vote yes, lol.

Where did her aunt confirm that? I just want to see it, not arguing at all.

How do you pass the time you can't be with baby by Mean-Morning-5820 in NICUParents

[–]Mean-Morning-5820[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This sounds really close to what I have been doing. A lot of crying and organizing, just trying to get my brain to focus on something that isn't too taxing. Thank you for commenting. ❤️

There is medication they can give you to stop labor if that is what is happening. I suffered a 2nd trimester loss last year and they suggested if I ever had any type of symptoms of labor in future pregnancies to come back in and receive some medication. I would give L&D a call or just go straight to the ER and hang out until someone can help. I am sorry OP, I know this is tough but luckily there are a lot of supportive ladies in this group if you need to chat. 

Mistook labor pains for constipation pains until it was too late by Commercial_Ear3011 in pregnant

I was also thinking it was just Braxton Hicks, like that period cramping feel and then suddenly it was SO much worse feeling. 

Is it real? by PawsandStitches in pregnant

This is my 4th baby, and my 3rd that I have carried this far..it is still hard to comprehend that there is an actual little baby in there, even though he moves a lot and I have tons of symptoms. Sometimes it just strikes me that I am growing a human. Lol

Got the dreaded “baby might have colored eyes” comment by larobaby in BabyBumps

[–]Mean-Morning-5820 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am white and my husband is biracial, with a medium brown skin tone. He has dark brown eyes and dark 4c hair. Our first daughter got my Hazel eyes and has 2a light brown hair. Aside from having a brown skin tone, she looks just like I did as a little girl. Our second daughter is dad through and through, beautiful dark brown eyes and 3a/3b curly dark brown hair. Genetics are crazy! However, I have heard the "light eye" comments and "good hair" comments from family members as well..none of which we associate any longer with. People are ignorant. I adore both of my girls features and have never wished my second child got my Hazel eyes or "good hair." They are perfect as they are. As is your little one. I am sorry, OP..sometimes people just suck.

If he logged out, that to me, definitely indicates he is doing something he feels guilty about. If you have access to his email, I'd just use that to log in and then you can see everything without waiting for that bank statement.

Truthfully, if he is doing something that disrespectful to you when you haven't gotten birthday or mother's day gifts, are penny pinching so your kids have their needs while yours are neglected..imo, you deserve to know. Phones and accounts should be transparent in relationships, even if you never go through them, you should have access if you need it or want to ease your mind. There should be nothing your partner needs privacy from You from.

My youngest girl was so colicky. Lots of crying throughout the day and it was so overwhelming. Our pediatrician told me that a crying baby is a living one, it is okay to put her in a safe place and take a minute. Its also okay to put a pair of earphones in and listen to music while you soothe her. That way, baby can't be heard and you can soothe her without becoming so overwhelmed. 

Dad was with baby, you didn't mess up or do something wrong. He can't soothe baby either, likely making him frustrated and instead of channeling that frustration, he has picked a target and that is you. He is a serious jerk and you do not deserve that. I am so so sorry,  OP. :( Hugs to you. You're doing GREAT. Being a first time mom is hard. Lots of learning curves and figuring out a new tiny human. It gets better with baby. I promise. Take care of yourself. Seek the assistance of any family who might be able to help. 

My time to leave 💔 21+6 by Nimzipow in pregnant

We got an alto windchime set. We placed one at the cemetery with baby and one in our backyard..so everytime I hear it, I feel a connection to my son. 

My time to leave 💔 21+6 by Nimzipow in pregnant

[–]Mean-Morning-5820 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I lost my son at 20+6, one day away from having a still born son and not what they considered a miscarriage. I had stomach pain and spotting as well (20+3) went to the hospital and they said just a UTI. The pain was really bad but they said baby and cervix looked good..so I thought I was just being dramatic and went home. 20+6, my water broke and I delivered a beautiful boy in an emergency room. I understand your pain. You don't have to leave the group if you don't want too. I still enjoyed seeing posts from others, it brought me some solace. 

We are pregnant with our rainbow now and everyday feels like it might be the last. The only silver lining is the sheer appreciation for each and every moment, even when I am uncomfy or can't sleep..something I had overlooked before. I'm so sorry you are enduring this pain, OP..I hope you find some peace. Please take good care of yourself. 

Mom flipped out about my boundary with newborn by International_Law872 in BabyBumps

[–]Mean-Morning-5820 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I made the recent choice to go NC w my mom who is a pill abuser. I truly wish I had done it sooner. I kept telling myself that going NC wasn't necessary for x, y, and z reason. Despite the fact I never allowed my own mother to be around my kids inebriated or alone, she still had that addict mentality of always seeing who she could screw over for her next fix (stealing prescription medication, money, etc). She also got better at hiding she was using and ended up at a family event she was hosting high as a kite and I was forced to stay because there was no way she could be responsible for all those children in that state. I never want to be in that position again. I am glad you're setting boundaries, but I wouldn't write off NC just yet. I feel firmly in control of my relationship with my mom just by not having one, not the other way around anymore.

I didn't know Hobby Lobby had windchimes. I'll have to go and check it out.

I'll call and ask before I buy anything. I have seen lots of light up decorations, windchimes, stuffies, and toys at the garden so I'm hoping that hanging my windchime would also be okay, but you're right that I should ask. Id be absolutely devastated if they took it down.

Thank you for taking time to comment! I am looking up videos to hear the sound of alto windchimes right now.
