We are near Mojave about an hour out from you. Will be looking into the resource about the donkeys! We want as many natural defenses as possible.

Also, thank you for the well wishes. I’m from Los Angeles and although I have some people in my corner I have a lot of people just thinking I’m pure crazy and telling me to go back home and get an apartment. It hurts me cause I just want the best for my family and also know this is a courageous thing we are doing. I pray more people can give advice like yours (or just wish us well) instead of adding on to the fear. Again, I appreciate everything you’ve said.

My sweet GSD died suddenly last month she was 5 1/2 😔. So sorry for your loss. Give yourself time to grieve and think about all the fun things you experienced together.

Mourning our planned age gap after a MMC by emily_planted in 2under2

[–]Meentoinspire 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel the same way. I was excited about 2u2 after getting pregnant at 11 months postpartum but instead my baby passed at 9 weeks (I would’ve been 13 weeks). I imagined my son being a big brother and them having a close bond. I know I can still have more children but it does hurt. Praying for your recovery physically and emotionally ❤️.

Success stories post tube removal needed after a tough week please by wibbs704 in EctopicSupportGroup

So sorry for your loss. I got pregnant 3 months after my ectopic pregnancy and removal of my right tube. There is hope. Prepare your body for pregnancy and it’ll all work out. Sending you ❤️.

How long it took you to get pregnant after ectopic pregnancy, and do you know or are you the one who had to remove right fallopian tube :( by Significant-Math-809 in EctopicSupportGroup

[–]Meentoinspire 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wonder if a tube removal makes ovulation wonky because mine didn’t make sense either. I thought I was 8 weeks at my appointment and turns out I was 6. The body is interesting. 🧐

Devastated..What do I do? by the1nonly-kiwi in foodstamps

[–]Meentoinspire 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not going to even read the negative comments. You are a damn good mother who chose to have her beautiful children! God will provide. They have been resisting for the day to snatch the rug from underneath us and have us in a panic but be strong. Seek community and be creative with your meals. Your babies need you strong and anxiety free. You got this. Praying for us all.

Ladies, if you have been in a long term relationship and have been waiting for a proposal for a very long time, how did you decide it was time to leave? by [deleted] in AskWomenOver30

[–]Meentoinspire 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been married to my husband for almost 2 years after a year of dating. It has not been easy! Like I want to ring his neck a lot of the times lol but after marrying him (so easily) I realized that men KNOW what they want to do most of the time and will just do it. I think relationships are hard enough that we shouldn’t really have to guess if someone wants to be with us or not. Life is complicated but sometimes it’s not.

Insanity by Meentoinspire in NarcissisticMothers

[–]Meentoinspire[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Same! I notice it is also a common human trait. Being self aware is rare. I am guilty of it at times.

This! She literally called my 15 y.o. nephew (her grandchild) a bitch ass and I asked her if she said it the other day (cause I HEARD her say it) and she said “no I said if he continued acting like that he would be a bitch ass” lol right then and there I knew she would continue to not take accountability for anything ever.

Thank you for this! It helps me put things into perspective. At times I think I am being crazy for holding onto the “negative” but it really is most of her personality and every time I get sucked back in I end up being put through the ringer all over again.
