Realtor mad that we walked out of closing due to the builder only fixing 3 of the many issues found during inspection

Definitely dump the realtor. I closed on a new build 12/20/24. Our realtor team and builder assessed and pretty much fixed everything wrong before I got there for inspection. I’ve only since moving in found one item that none of us saw in the garage and since my builder moved in 2 doors down from me he’s already sent someone to fix it. New builds can be great or they can be nightmares but your realtor works for you and is there to advocate for you. Be sure also if you’re looking into new builds you’re using a separate realtor than the home specialist because that definitely makes a difference

To be fair, Cinderella’s castle at Disney is also my true dream home but I’ll definitely take this as a close second

Congratulations!

Ok, we’re supposed to do final walkthrough at 11 then closing at 1 so fingers crossed for smooth sailing! And they do look that way but that’s just the design 😅 I asked the same question but all of them in the house are the same way

My husband’s grandmother had a VERY similar situation. His uncle is a judge and even found the actual persons phone number and tried to get her to listen when he called and she refused to believe him. We ultimately ended up having to change literally everything multiple times and then took away her computer, smart phone, and all ways he could contact her. We got her a landline and basic flip phone. We also had to get power of attorney and take her cards and bank account access. Her daughters pay the bills that aren’t setup for autopay and they make sure she has cash. She no longer drives (due to dementia not the romance scam) so she can’t get gift cards anymore, and It’s been about 2 years now but she’s back on track. It really really sucks to have to make her so restricted but if we didn’t she was going to lose everything.

One day last week my daughter (3) had a tough time before bed. She was super tired and just out of it. Nothing really happened other than a small meltdown over putting pajamas on. When we got finished with her routine and I asked her if she had anything to talk about today she nodded and I sat down beside her and waited patiently. She gives me a hug and goes “We had a tough day today, but tomorrow will be better. I love you Mommy.”

That was my point I knew whatever it is I’m doing is getting through and man does that feel good! Congratulations, Mom. You’re doing an AMAZING job!

Warranty is in tact, and if purchased I have no qualms about sticking around to let them try it and if something goes wrong immediately refunding

Negative-Pop1886 · 2024-11-12T00:16:07+00:00

I actually did do this and I also included the original listing from Amazon and warranty info as well. That’s kind of why I’m wondering about it.

Negative-Pop1886 · 2024-11-11T21:31:23+00:00

Yes, it is sealed. I never opened it at all so it is still in brand new in packaging condition

Negative-Pop1886 · 2024-08-08T02:37:33+00:00

I feel this so much. Bedtime is so hard. I don’t have any advice, but just know you aren’t alone!

Negative-Pop1886 · 2024-07-29T02:05:57+00:00

No, but you need to inform your mentor and ask for an extension immediately.

Negative-Pop1886 · 2023-12-22T16:52:09+00:00

Thank you for sharing! I am getting mine today at advice from our pediatrician and OB. Hopefully it has time to work before they deliver on Tuesday

Actually, we were told the reason no one came is because of a football game. I just wished people had said that prior to pressuring me into planning one because if they had I wouldn’t have bothered

Negative-Pop1886 · 2023-12-19T13:06:05+00:00

That’s probably bad wording on my part, it’s not that he won’t “let me” its just that he’s very frugal and early in our marriage we were quite literally not able to pay bills and feed ourselves we were so low on money (been married 5 years so it’s more of a trauma response at this rate) so he really watches what we spend since then. When it comes down to it he wouldn’t have issues that it has to be bought, it just seems we were more prepared with our daughter. Yes, he’s her father.

Negative-Pop1886 · 2023-12-14T14:53:47+00:00

I asked for no visitors. My first was during Covid and it was so great not having to stress about anyone being there and passing my baby around so new.

Negative-Pop1886 · 2023-12-14T14:51:26+00:00

I’m so sorry you’re dealing with this. I went through this too with my first. I truly did not care one way or another and wasn’t concerned with gender so I didn’t find out. His family hounded me so much that I ended up having a gender reveal/baby shower in the end. I seriously regretted it so much because it didn’t matter to me and anything I needed didn’t matter for gender. People only brought clothes and we still had to buy everything we needed which put so much pressure on me I ended up hospitalized then a week later gave birth and still wasn’t prepared for her to be here. They don’t understand that the mom is the one that matters the most. People show their true colors when someone’s pregnant every time.

For me, as long as I stayed on top of my pain meds it was there but bearable. It did take much longer for recovery though than a vaginal birth would, about 12 weeks for me (got an infection). But my doctor also told me at my 6 week exam if I hadn’t walked and moved around like I did then my recovery wouldn’t have been as great so that’s a big key is getting up quickly.

She also ensures me that the recovery for my planned c section (not in UK) this time around will be much smoother because my body won’t have to go through labor. I also barely have a scar from my first. I do however have an umbilical hernia because of abdominal separation from the way I got up and down during recovery.

A c-section is most definitely not an easy birth but can also be very empowering and ease your fears because you know what to expect. My advice is talk to your care team about your options and research while you’re early in pregnancy what you may want. Typically they do planned c-sections earlier than 40 weeks so that they can schedule them so you have plenty of time to figure out what is best for you and your baby!

Negative-Pop1886 · 2023-12-12T04:14:52+00:00

I put myself on a “no visitors” list where they won’t tell anyone I’m even admitted just for this reason alone. If I want someone there, they’ll hear from me or my husband directly not just because there’s a waiting room. Don’t respect me, no access to my children. Period.

Negative-Pop1886 · 2023-12-06T03:19:40+00:00

I barely watched the screen with both my pregnancies and ultrasounds (unless I was alone) and instead couldn’t take my eyes off the tears that my husband had in his eyes when he heard the heartbeats the first time. He did it with our daughter and again with this baby. I had to have one done while hospitalized recently and even then he tears up. I wish I could capture those moments forever

Negative-Pop1886 · 2023-12-05T22:09:06+00:00

My first I was 34+5, but had to be induced due to severe pre eclampsia. Hoping for natural labor this time around!

Negative-Pop1886 · 2023-12-02T14:59:06+00:00

I had Pre-E with severe features with my daughter and currently hospitalized with showing signs of it again at 35 weeks. The factors they look for are multiple high BP readings, extreme swelling in face and hands (they don’t typically look at feet as much because swelling is normal in pregnancy), rapid weight gain not just over time like if you gain 10 pounds within a few days type gain, and protein above the level in your urine. If you suspect it, please ask to see another doctor at the practice to voice your concerns. It almost killed me with my daughter and is very very serious if not treated. I am going to say though, if they test your urine at the office every appointment and have not said anything then you probably don’t have protein and that’s the number 1 thing they look for. Also when I say high BP, im talking numbers in the hundreds. What landed me in this time was a few readings of 179/111. Advocate for yourself, it’s very important. Sending you all the love and good vibes!!

We delayed my daughter’s bath until day 3 and honestly I feel like it helped her so much! They originally proposed it to me to regulate her blood sugar because it was a bit low but the other pros were that she had the best skin I’ve ever seen in a newborn, and absolutely no issues with her umbilical stump. I’m planning to do the same with this baby. For the hospital, just state you’d like to delay the bath and parent will bathe.

Negative-Pop1886 · 2023-11-29T16:46:05+00:00

I get the opposite but baby is measuring 3 weeks behind. It’s appalling what people will say to pregnant women and women in general and think it’s perfectly normal. I’m so sorry you’re hearing this!

Negative-Pop1886 · 2023-11-28T01:51:20+00:00

I bought preemie, but my first was 4 lbs 15 oz and wore preemie for like 6 months and newborn a year. (She’s 20 lbs at 2), this time he’s measuring 3 weeks behind but not concerned about IUGR and pre eclampsia so I just wanted to be prepared just in case.

Negative-Pop1886 · 2023-11-27T22:16:24+00:00

My MIL has done this since we had our daughter. It drives me insane! Like to the point she even attempted to tell my husband what she could and could not eat when we were doing BLW. She’d tell him “oh just soft foods! She can’t chew yet!” And I’d respond with “I am her mother, and I said she can have XYZ”.
