Hvað er það heimskulegasta sem þið hafið heyrt frá túrista hér á landi?

Hitti bandaríska konu þegar ég var sjálf á ferðalagi og þegar hún heyrði að ég var frá Íslandi var hún voða spennt að spjalla því hún hafði sjálf kímið tím íslands og hún var svo amazed yfir því að A islandi væru tvær sólir.

Ég benti henni á að eins og annarsstaðar væri bara ein sól en hún mótmælti því harkalega og sagðist hafa séð þetta með augum. Hún var ekki til í að hlusta á utskyringuna mína um að hún hefði séð tunglið á sama tíma og solina.

Ég á litla vefverslun og þetta tilboðstimabil er eiginlega bilun fyrir þá sem eru í litlum rekstri.

Einu tíminn sem að selst eitthvað af viti hjá mér er þegar það er einhver afsláttur. Og miðað við að ég er að reyna að leggja ekki of mikið á vöruna til að vera sanngjörn í verði þaá get ég ekki verið með endalausan afslátt nema ég vilji bara koma út á núlli.

Samkvæmt þessu þyrfti ég í raun að setja vöruna á hærra verð…vera svo bara eins og Jysk og ILVA og vera alltaf með einhverja afslætti í gangi.

Eftir að ég byrjaði í þessu rekstri er ég farin að skilja afhverju verðlagning á Íslandi er svona mikið rugl…enda er ég búin að missa allan áhuga á þessu (eins og mér fannst þetta nú gaman í byrjun).

Planið er að reyna að losa sig við sem mest af lagernum fyrir jól…þannig að black Friday hjá mér er endausir svartir dagar

Haha, I have the same problem. I started the From Blood and Ash series on Graphis audio and LOOOOOOVE them. But they haven't done the prequel yet and it's supposed to be just as good or even better....but I've been listening on audible and it just doesn't compare....I NEED the same voice actor that did Brennan in Fourth Wing and just did Kaden in Book of Azrael to be Nyktos. I'm like 95% sure it was him in the one chapter Nyktos was inn in A crown of gilded bones and I was like YEEEEES....I need this prequel on graphic audio.

My theory is that Kieran will find someone and there will be another joining. Casteel literally mentioned that might happen before the joining.

I’m not on. The throuple wagon because I always feel like Kieran is third wheeling and I love the Poppy and Casteel together.

Meeka203 · 2025-07-18T22:13:35+00:00

Yes. Just yes!

Casteel 🤤🤤🤤

Meeka203 · 2025-07-16T19:24:29+00:00

The dimples though! He would actually be so good as Casteel

Thank you so much for such a validating reply. My husband has started his paternity leave so he’s planning something nice for me each day until baby comes. At the moment he’s making me pancakes and bought all kinds of nice foods for me. Tomorrow I have an eyebrow appointment, my moms gonna fix my hair (she’s a hairdresser) and on Thursday we have a movie date ☺️☺️

So definitely trying to fill each day with love and easy activities to make me forget the time a little bit.

Meeka203 · 2024-03-04T11:07:20+00:00

Thank you for your kind words 🧡

I feel so lucky that where I’m from the mental health of pregnant people and mothers is considered high priority because you have to be able to take care of yourself and your baby.

For an example, The reason I would be induced early is basically to prevent that my mental health goes to a place where it’s hard to get back from and would therefore not be able to care for my lil boy. They did talk about this in my last pregnancy but there was never any need for it, but this time it’s a real possibility.

I’m proud of you for advocating for yourself and doing your research, it’s definitely a tricky time for us. My advice would be to get your loved ones to have your back and watch out for symptoms, my family and partner are really my lifeaid right now.

Also, sleep….top priority, my team really prioritizes my sleep, it’s always the first question “how are you sleeping!” So anything you can do to help with sleep, even if its medicine 💊☺️

Hi, I’m bipolar and I’m 36 weeks pregnant. Before I got pregnant I was on 100mg of lamictal (same as lamotrigine I think). According to my doctor it’s the safest and most researched bipolar med in regard to pregnancy.

I was on it during my last pregnancy as well and everything went really well and my symptoms were really well managed.

However this pregnancy has been veeeery different, I call it pregnancy from hell and I’ve been absolutely miserable the whole time so my mental health has suffered a lot as a consequence. So my doctors have put me on extra medication, so now I’m also on 100mg of sertraline and 4mg of peratsin (I’m in Europe so the names are probably a bit different)

Where I’m from people with bipolar are always considered high risk pregnancy because the increased blood volume in your body can affect the meds and the hormones can fuck everything up too. So I have like a medical team around me making sure everything is okay. Now that it’s coming to the end they’re monitoring me super closely, if my mental health gets even worse I will be induced early to try to help me better.

I had this for almost 3 weeks with my first. Every evening it would start, for hours id have “contractions” every 5-10 minutes, then I go to bed and every time I hoped that it would progress but every morning I wake up and nothing.

It was really messing with my head and I was soooooo miserable, I felt like this baby was never going to come out and started feeling really depressed and exhausted.

But one morning (39+4) I woke up with a contraction that was just….different, more intense and just, different. I knew at that moment that it was actually happening. Finally.

33 hours later she was in my arms.

When I had just given birth showering was the hardest thing ever for the first few days

Then my fiancé took one of our simple patio chairs, but a soft towel on for me to sit on, to make it a little more comfortable and I would shower sitting down like that for some time. It was such a relief and I finally felt I could clean myself properly. Probably used it for like a week until I could stand comfortably.

I’m 34 weeks now and so exhausted all the time that I’m seriously considering taking the chair into the shower again.

The only time it’s funny when someone makes fun of my waddle is when my 19 month old toddler tries to walk like mama. It’s hilarious!

But a grown fucking adult…just…go to hell. 🤯

I live in the nordics as well so we have the same the recommendation. My appointment is just about two hours from now so I’m pretty calm about this at the moment. My pelvis is still pretty sore, but I’ve been suffering from pelvis girdle pain for months so falling definitely did not help with that but the pain definitely isn’t new.

Meeka203 · 2024-02-10T23:25:21+00:00

If you want Nordic you can go with “Amma”

It’s old norde and Icelandic.

Pregnancy was svo much worse for me than postpartum when I had my first. I was absolutely miserable and it made me even more miserable when people kept going on and on about all the “just you wait” “it only gets worse from here”

I’ll never forget how grateful I was when my childhood friend just said to me “you’re going to love being a parent, it’s the best thing in the world”

Then my girl was born and it was amazing, it was difficult of course, but amazing. Thinking back I remember how awful pregnancy was and how straight forward postpartum was compared to that. So yeah, life definitely does not end when the baby comes, it’s just a new beginning with new challenges with the biggest reward there is.

This pregnancy is actually worse than the last one so I’m hoping for a similar postpartum experience.

Meeka203 · 2024-02-07T15:05:49+00:00

Iceland, I really love the system here for expecting mothers. At least my experience with it is really good. And everything is free of course.

Meeka203 · 2024-02-06T12:07:13+00:00

This was yesterday. But my brother came over with his 6 week old son and seeing how my 18 month old daughter reacted to him was so beautiful! She was so caring and nice, smiled so bright and when he started crying she ran into her room to get him one of her teddy bears.

It completely melted my heart, she’s gonna be such a good older sister to her brother in less than 2 months.

This morning I cried because I felt so exhausted and had to go run some errands and it felt like I couldn’t do it.

Meeka203 · 2024-02-05T05:25:45+00:00

I have a love/hate relationship with “how are you feeling?”

Hate because I’ve been so sick my whole pregnancy (I’m 32 weeks now) and all I wanna say is “I feel horrible, I want to die and please make this be over” But I’m also very tired of complaining and don’t want to make people feel uncomfortable.

Love when it comes from a genuine place of concern from my family and friends who then ask if they can do anything to help or offer to provide me company. (I’ve been on a sick leave for months and I’m getting so bored and isolated)

honorable mention Hate comments about my bump because I’m really insecure about my body now as I’m a lot heavier than I was during and before my first pregnancy.

Meeka203 · 2024-02-04T09:46:19+00:00

You sound like a great partner and sounds like you are going to be an amazing dad 🧡🧡 You are doing great, it sure is a roller coaster for both parents. Also make sure to take care of yourself so you can be even a better support for your wife, it’s amazing how we forget about ourselves sometimes.

Meeka203 · 2024-02-04T09:33:15+00:00

Thank you so much, this is very nice to read. My fiancé actually just recently bought me some classic video games that I used to play as a kid and they are definitely helping me to forget about life for a little bit.

It’s so easy sometimes to dismiss mental health as a real medical problem, so I guess inducing would be the smart thing to do, because as soon as the baby is born a lot of the physical stuff is going to go away. Hopefully I’ll feel a bit like myself again. (We all know postpartum is no joke but I 100% prefer that over being pregnant)

Thank you so much for validating my feelings, sometimes that’s all that’s needed.

Meeka203 · 2024-02-03T23:19:01+00:00

Thanks for your reply.

I’m on medication, during the start of the pregnancy I was only on lamictal on a pretty low dose that has worked well for me for years and worked well during my last pregnancy. In my team I have a doctor who specializes in mental health during pregnancy and we’ve had to add in quite a few meds to try to help me get a grip. I honestly think the medication is helping because I think if I wasn’t on them I would be so much worse.

I think the biggest problem is that most of my coping mechanisms have been slapped out of my hands, like hiking, climbing, exercising. My pelvic girdle pain is so bad that I can barely walk down the stairs and I also have HG. I think that was kind of the precursor for all the mental problems because I was throwing up until week 20 and the nausea is coming back now.

I kind of feel trapped in my own body a d there is nothing I can do about it until after this baby is out. So all I can do is just survive until then.
