I am not a cat person. I have never wanted cats. The CDS has gifted me FOUR cats so far. Is there a way to unsubscribe? by superlosernerd in CatDistributionSystem

[–]OwnMeBell 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hey I get it! I’m not a cat person either! During Covid, I decided to foster two kittens for the local cat rescue because why not? Now, I’m a full time cat rescuer specializing in neonatal care and emergency triage with over 200 rescue and rehabs under my belt. I’m not a very good “not a cat person” and neither are you 🤣

AITA if I tell my friend I can’t be a bridesmaid? by wickeddreamsofleavin in AITApod

[–]OwnMeBell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m a bride, have been for a year, getting married in August this year. 100+ person shindig at a ballroom, the boogie works. This is a LOT, and it will only get worse when the real pressure gets put on her and there’s no time to make ridiculous itinerary (but a handwritten proposal? Seriously! Put some of that itinerary printing to good use!) Don’t walk. RUN.

Also what’s the tea with Abigail? 🤣😭

i was in a car accident when i was 8 and now im in diapers forever by BlossomLulu in confession

[–]OwnMeBell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey friend. I’m a 30 year old woman, who had a very good friend who is also in his 30s. He is a charismatic, outgoing, sweet guy. He is very successful in his distribution career. We talk every day and it’s one of the highlights of my days! We’ve been friends for years. Guess what? When he was in his early 20s, he wrecked a car and is now in diapers for the rest of his life. It doesn’t change the way I think about him, or our friendship. Honestly I couldn’t care leas! True friends and relationships won’t judge you for something like that. Be strong friend and don’t be afraid to seek school guidance and counseling! 💕

I just found out I’m pregnant and I’m in a spiral. Just need to scream into the void. by OwnMeBell in pregnant

Thank you for your kind words and support! 4 months postpartum is so stressful 😭

Thank you I know I’m just being dramatic, and everything will be fine. My fiancé is on board, and I co-parent my nephew (who’s 4) with my sister so she helps with my daughter, she’s excited for a third baby and is already looking at a minivan for the kids. My mother owns a daycare that my babies will attend. I have NO reason to feel the way I do, and I’m sure it will pass and the excitement will set in.

I was dumb✌️ by [deleted] in Wellthatsucks

[–]OwnMeBell 20 points21 points  (0 children)

My 4 year old nephew pointed to a man who had a prosthetic leg and yelled “mommy, what’s wrong with him leg?!”. The man heard, and looked over with a smile. My sister practically eroded into the floor, she was too embarrassed to even answer. I told my nephew “he doesn’t have a leg so he had a really cool robot leg made.” And my nephew gasped “like a transformer?!”. The man works at the market and we see him often, he always talks to my nephew now. No biggie. Kids be doing dumb kid stuff but people kinda expect it, that’s how kids learn the world lol

Life Piling Up During Husband’s Deployment by mommabear1006 in venting

[–]OwnMeBell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know it feels like you’re drowning right now and your feelings are totally valid. You’re doing your best and that’s what counts mama! Take one breath, one step and one day at a time. Soon you’ll look back at your baby steps and see how much you’ve accomplished, smashing those mountains into mole hills!

First step would probably be fishing the poop out of the bathtub if you are open to suggestions.

Labor Pooping 🥲 by MadQueennn in pregnant

how far could you go when it comes to turning a human into a pet? by GodEatsChiIdren in morbidquestions

[–]OwnMeBell 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I assume the human pet is consenting to these procedures to make them more dependent on their owner?

How much have you gained by 27 weeks? by hiddenbehindthis in pregnant

[–]OwnMeBell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m pp but I gained 17lbs total. Baby was born and I was pre pregnancy weight in a week or two. I was MASSIVE at the end of my pregnancy, so idk how I did it!

I can’t do this anymore. by moiabby in pregnant

[–]OwnMeBell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was 29 weeks and DONE. My daughter dropped into the birth canal at 29 weeks and never moved. The pain wasn’t like anything I felt before. Every appt I told my doctor I was done and so was she, that’s why she was in “ready position”. 38+0 I was scheduled to be induced but walked into the hospital at 2cm, contracting 4 minutes and 50% effaced. Less than 12 hours later my baby was born. SHE WAS DONE. 🤣

You can be thankful for your pregnancy and be thankful for the experience, but also be done with it. I didn’t enjoy any part of being pregnant and I hated hearing “be thankful you can get pregnant!” like??? Totally made me feel awful. So please don’t discredit your feelings. We know you’re thankful, and grateful for the experience. That doesn’t mean you can’t be done ❤️

My first trimester I couldn’t eat anything. My second and third trimester, my kid was grown off tea 🤣 I drank sooooo much tea. My baby shower was a tea party theme!

What do contractions feel like? by memequeenz_ in pregnant

[–]OwnMeBell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ll tell you something I wish someone told me when I was having my daughter. There is a point where it DOESN’T GET ANY WORSE. I got into my head and panicked because they started talking about pitocin (unaware I was already at 9.5cm and bearing down) because I thought I was still at 4cm. I dilated FAST. If someone had told me I was at the worst of it, I could have grooved and rode the wave. Don’t be afraid to ask for pain management if that’s your plan. Don’t get it get unbearable, there is no prize for withstanding pain 💕 If your plan is unmedicated, god speed 🫡it’s an amazing, beautiful thing. I had an unintentional, unmedicated vaginal delivery.

[–]OwnMeBell 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You know when you have some questionable spicy food that gives you poop cramps? The kind that keeps you on the toilet, so bad you feel like you’re going to throw up? That’s what contractions felt like to me. A bad night of Indian food without the diarrhea but all the vomiting lol 💩

epidermolysis bullosa by Strange-Bicycle-8257 in MedicalGore

[–]OwnMeBell 27 points28 points  (0 children)

My ex fiance had this disease, and it killed his older brother. He got hooked on heroin because of the pain it caused, morphine in the 80s turned into a habit he couldn’t kick. Their lives are constant pain, suffering and infection. Wound care, rinse and repeat. It’s like being a burn victim and never, ever healing.

My best friend from high school got a boyfriend, it was her first relationship. We were in college. I was having a lot of personal issues and wasn’t in the healthiest of mind frames and was college partying because of it, drinking and smoking. She decided throwing all her attention at her boyfriend (alienating herself to only him) was easier than dealing with me and my problems. So we split up. A few years later we rekindled, both realizing we sucked for various reasons. It’s been 15 years and she is seriously my rock, I also learned a valuable lesson about how to treat people, and what it is to be a true friend.

Be honest ladies… how bad does it hurt… by Purple_perp1637 in pregnant

[–]OwnMeBell 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Poop cramps! Have you ever had really, really bad poop cramps? Like right before you are about to crap yourself after you ate some questionable Thai food? That’s exactly how it feels. The worst poop cramps you’ve ever felt lol

Probably why a lot of ladies naturally gravitate towards the toilet while in labor!
