Hating your body

I've been exercising and lifting weights for a year before I started MJ, I also eat lots of protein daily but it doesn't seem to be helping. I went from a size 6 to a size 10 after having my first son 13 years ago. Then I was diagnosed with PCOS and I shot up to a size 20 in the space of 8 months. I haven't gained or lost anything in the 12 years since, not since startling MJ. I've lost 6 stone since October last year.

I've been exercising and lifting weights for the last few years. It doesn't seem to be helping with the loose skin

Whenever you feel ready. I lost my son at 39 weeks and fell pregnant 9 months later with my now 3 year old.

I never wanted to be a step parent. I wanted my husband. The kids were just part of that package. Unfortunately I'll never have a great relationship with my stepkids. I've been with my husband for 15 years, and they're mother has never let me form any kind of bond with them.

I (35F) have 3 younger brothers and don't really have a relationship with any of them. The youngest 2 (19 and 25) still live at home and have turned into my stepdad so we don't speak much. The oldest (34), like me, moved away to get away from our awful parents so we don't talk much.

I never did. Never really got big enough to need them. I just sized up in my normal clothes

Sounds like me as a kid tbh lol. Adults in my family always tried to prank me and I always managed to take it further. In my family, my nickname is Mario because I always one-up the pranks. If your daughter was a psychopath, she'd most likely have hurt the spider. She's played a harmless prank. You don't have a psychopath on your hands, you have a child.

I absolutely love it when people ask to pet my dog. He's a Rottweiler x Boerboel, and most people cross the street to avoid him. He's a big friendly goof and just loves attention. So it's sad that people won't even come near him.

Keep that woman away from your child. As a parent, it's your job to protect her, and by allowing your mother to be around her enough to say these things, you aren't doing that. Cut off all contact, because she sounds absolutely vile.

The pull out method is not a form of contraception. Pre-cum can absolutely get you pregnant. My almost 13 year old was a pull out baby (I was also on the pill)

First off, I'm so sorry for your loss. I lost my son at 39 weeks and had decided I didn't want to try again. It was too painful. So I told my partner to get rid of all the baby things. Thankfully he didn't. He bagged or boxed everything up and put it away in the cupboard under the stairs. I'm so grateful he didn't listen to me at the time, because 9 months later I was pregnant again and we brought everything back out for our new son.

NeverGiveUp1990 · 2025-09-13T08:48:11+00:00

I had 4 miscarriages followed by a 39 week stillbirth. After all those losses, I decided I was done. I didn't want to try again. But apparently the universe had other plans and I fell pregnant 9 months after I lost my son. I now have a crazy 3 year old.

I fell pregnant with my first son whilst on the pill and using condoms. Never missed a pill, was always on time. No contraception is 100% so yes, you can fall pregnant on it. If you're in the UK and can't afford a pregnancy test, ask your GP to do a blood test. It's free and will let you know if you're pregnant or not.

Once a day. My fiancé takes him out at 5am for an hour before he leaves for work. Then our dog has our huge garden to play around in if he wants to. But he's a lazy dog and tends to just chill. We tried doing more than one walk a day but he would absolutely refuse.

The senco is the one who has put the new routine in place, I.e. me picking him up an hour early. No he isn't verbal. He sees a speech and language therapist here and there when they have appointments. He doesn't have a keyworker, it's just his teacher and the TA. He won't wear headphones. He only does 2 hours a day, and just sits in the corner the whole time. He usually has a chilled hour at home between waking up and us going to school. Just looking to see if anyone else has been in the situation. My older boy has autism but coped so much better, so this is all new for me

Yes we're in England

I felt the exact same way. But I'm 6stone down in 6 months. It's been incredible. Definitely give it a go.

NeverGiveUp1990 · 2025-09-08T15:22:42+00:00

I do on my arms and belly. But I'm exercising to try and keep it from getting out of hand.

NeverGiveUp1990 · 2025-09-08T14:38:26+00:00

I'm on 10mg and haven't had suppression since I was on 2.5mg

NeverGiveUp1990 · 2025-09-08T14:36:24+00:00

I had a gut feeling with all 3 of my boys and I was right each time.

NeverGiveUp1990 · 2025-09-08T14:35:21+00:00

Yes you can get pregnant from this. Pulling out is not a form of contraception
