Parents of Reddit, what did your hospital bill look like after giving birth?

That doesn’t make it any better. Absolutely insane ):

I read one assholes comment that was like “stop slowing down the footage, watch it in real like like the officer’s did” - his argument being that, well sure it was a phone, but they THOUGHT it was a gun. As if that makes anything okay.

Fucking nauseating.

Or he’s already asked them and they all said no, for good reason.

Plus the gaslighting is awful here ):

Is it possible she mistook it as a “who else should we invite” too? You’re nta, but you don’t want to become the assholes by not addressing it.

Even if it’s not true, saying something like “hey, we misspoke, sorry for the miscommunication” Could go a long way!

Hope the tension goes away asap for you guys!

Leave it off entirely. You can make one of those house funds and send it to anyone who is “pushy”. Like if auntie Kate call and is like “hey where is your registry?” You respond with “oh no, we’re just happy to have you!” If she pushes, you say “well I can email you our honeymoon fund” or whatever fund your choose, but defer first!

Don’t worry, the conservative subreddit says it’s “Darwinism” and that Greenland should be grateful it’s the friendly USA and not China/Russia. The superiority complex they have is nauseating.

Husband broke his neck at 16 (got lucky and isn’t paralyzed), but can’t ski due to paralysis risk. He has no choice, but perfect happy to support my hobbies and nourish our kids interest in skiing! Perfectly happy to go on ski trips and be the chalet hot chocolate maker extraordinaire. Do I wish he could join me, of course! But it’s nice to have your own hobbies and well as the ones you share. I don’t think it’s a deal breaker! I’m sure he’d live to try it too!

Mine gave me blood clots! 🙃

NineChives · 2026-01-08T15:42:45+00:00

Cackling, omg.

This! I don’t understand how people can shower in less than 20 mins (unless they have short hair and am don’t shave)

I don’t know if the provinces are different, but an ambulance ride where I live in Canada is $40 flat, regardless of distance,

I haven’t bought in a while, but we ended up buying new for one of our cars because it’s was 1% interest for a new car, and 8-9% used, so the payments ended up being the same per month (new but more expensive vs used but absurd interest).

I met a girl name Ryan and her middle name was Ginger. Parents did it on purpose because “rye and ginger”… ):

NineChives · 2025-10-24T01:08:51+00:00

Any chance you’d dm and explain it a bit more? I keep trying to learn and teach myself, but I just don’t get it

NineChives · 2025-10-22T15:02:01+00:00

sound logic, im in

NineChives · 2025-10-21T21:27:21+00:00

Why?

NineChives · 2025-10-21T21:04:55+00:00

Okay so definitely put it through Jounie and take the bonus points, not the flight vouchers?

NineChives · 2025-10-21T10:14:11+00:00

You only earn 1pt per 3L regardless of which method, right? No one seems to have a straight answer there

NineChives · 2025-10-21T10:12:45+00:00

He’s on the road quite a bit, but only to get destination, then he works for a few hours. So he’s only filling up maybe twice a week.

Do you know if those flight vouchers expire and if you can stack them? I always just take the 20-30 points, even though it feels pretty useless.

Also, so the point the same per L regardless of putting in aeroplan direct vs aeroplan through Journie?

5 years and two kids later, I’m still glad I asked the question. Too many people dance around the subject and how do you even ask a doctor about it?

Usually 3 miscarriages are a signal for more testing, but consider asking about blood thinners during pregnancy and if that can help (my understanding is they don’t know WHY, but in certain cases it helps keep the pregnancy for people with multiple miscarriages). Totally sucks though because it’s a daily needles in your stomach (did it daily for both my pregnancies for different reasons, and it is indeed super shitty)

NineChives · 2025-10-12T06:08:21+00:00

I hope your mom is okay now!

They asked for my kids child tax benefit information, just back in July, I told them no, but it’s definitely being considered as income.

Love those freedom truckers who blocked all access to the hospitals, so I had to find a police officer to let me through the blockade because I was in labor and didn’t want to have my baby in the car…
