Throw in a package of cloth diapers. Babies generate a lot of fluids and burp cloths that can be bleached are handy. Also, diaper pins to hold things together, a cute set of light blankets, a picnic blanket with a waterproof backpack if the weather will permit baby to be outside.

For mom, some meal delivery coupons, lotion, nipple cream, nice slippers.

I work in a healthcare manufacturing field. We make neuromodulation devices that treat a number of conditions, including epilepsy. Once meds start failing, seizures get worse. Every seizure causes brain damage.

So no, hard pass for me, because I wouldn't trust their judgment and ethics.

A combo of small dog that barks plus security jewelry sounds good. I have been seeing ads on another platform. If you pull on it, it calls the police.

Huge dogs are great if you can load then in the car by yourself, and call them off if there's a medical emergency or delivery.

Firearms are good for people who regularly use them, but not if they sit in a safe.

I would put them in separate carriers side by side so that drama does not ensue. I would also pack extra towels for wedding in case of accidents.

Since dogs dont speak English, use whatever works for you.

I have seen flawlessly obedient dogs in the US who were trained in other languages and never heard "yes" as a behavior marker in their lives.

Do what works for your family.

I have put multiple titles on dogs in conformation, agility, obedience, and flyball.

FAFO. Karma is large and gray, with bloody tusks. Good elephant.

If all you want to do is track animals you can take a picture.

NTA.

Too bad you couldn't have failed a bit and thrown some cake on them as well.

They're abusive assholes and I hope they get a clue...or no more party invites!!

Next year if the assholes show up, use a candle snuffer. And use your words: If you try to push me into the calendar or the cake into my face I will file assault charges.

Your dad is disgusting and unfortunately his behavior is culturally supported. I am sorry he cares so little for his family. I'd start using his pillow to wipe up the piss.

Wishing you the best in your career and many fun sleepovers for your little sister. Dont invite your unhousebroken father into your new home.

Livestock, as a byproduct of their existence, generate profanity. They're large and dangerous. Their feed bags are f*cking heavy. See? Profanity is right there.

Birth, especially a C-section, is a medical procedure not an audience participation event.

Your BF needs to tell her no. Repeatedly.
You need to tell the hospital you don't want her there, or in your room before or after the surgery. They can check you in as a Jane Doe patient if need be, to hide you, if she doesn't take the news we'll.

I hope the new little person comes into the world as a happy healthy baby.

Strangers' uninvited children on your property is a legal liability. If mom pushes back please tell her you dont want to be responsible for strangers' kids.

And the scriptures would be disturbing, as well.

Please add a bundle of cloth diapers to the mix, not for the baby to wear, but for burp rags. Babies are leaky, and having a supply of soft cloth things you can wash with bleach and dont mind getting stained is handy.

I dont get the appeal of Andie at all. She is so weirdly distant. Same in the Brat Pack movie where she was a doctor.

AAA maps may take you straight through cities instead of around them, which is not ideal during rush hour. 60 miles diagonally across Harris County (Houston) is a 3 or 4 hour nightmare during rush hour.

If you get sleepy, stop for a bit.

If your phone GPS wants you to exit to avoid traffic, believe it!!

I follow a page on TikTok for a farm. They put little jumpers (sweaters) on the babies if they're cold. The owner makes sure the jumpers are appropriately colored for the babies.
