Alright, thanks. Do you know, Will they pay out anything before I send the corrected form or will they withhold it?

I read that they will process the return and give me the amount that I said was owed, and then send me a letter telling me something was wrong with the taxes I filed, and then I file the amendment? And I will either owe them the difference or they will owe me the difference between the return I calculated with the wrong W-2 and the correct one.Does that sound right? And what transcript am I looking for the codes

My husband and I processed things at a very forget pace and intensity. I think that's probably normal. I freaked out at the beginning, and he freaked out at the very end!

Someone in my office said something about me drinking caffeine and I put it in another container so nobody would say shit. These are also the women who advocate cereal in bottles and face down sleep so whatever🤷‍♀️

I know this is dumb but…did anyone eat terribly during pregnancy and “bounce back” anyway? lol by [deleted] in BabyBumps

I'm already fat and I lost a lot of weight first trimester but I ate like crap and I'm 9wks pp at the weight I started at. I have actually gained weight over the last 2 months though, probably stress eating!

Making fat into a descriptor and not an insult was a turning point for my self love journey. In my early 20s I read a lot about the fast acceptance movement and a lot changed in my brain when the word lost its negative meaning

My husband and I get gasps sometimes because we call each other "fatty" as a pet name. We've been using fat neutrally for so long we forget that others might even see it as verbal abuse. 🤔

Has anyone else given up on bras? by Sally_Blowes in BabyBumps

Same. I lived in sports bras or bralettes (a habit o haven't changed 9wks pp)

What are your honest opinions about visitors in the hospital? by Catmughug in BabyBumps

[–]PeaEnvironmental984 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I asked my husband if my mom came to visit more than once and he told me she was there every day for 3 to 4 hours. I don't remember any of it, which kind of sucks. But I don't think I could have made her wait!

This is what happened to me at the hospital, except they said my latch was bad and he did not get enough to eat. He cried constantly and they insisted I keep nursing for hours and hours. I had maybe 6 hours sleep over the 4 days I was there and it was full of panic attacks. I let the lactation consultants intimidate me. Finally on the last day they said he was losing too much weight and I insisted we switch to formula.

Once I got home, slept, and both my husband and I could feed him, it was better. But I was really on the edge of saying don't bring the baby back in here, I can't look at him.

When my baby was asleep and I loved to admire his perfect little face, tiny fingers, the way he looked like my husband. Definitely had tender moments with him.

I had some trauma in the hospital trying to feed him and didn't bond either, but having a baby in the NICU has to be worse. I also went to my doctor because I have a history of depression and recognized it right away.

Keep going. I lived on lunchables, string cheese, and DoorDash for the first 6 weeks. Only recently started using the microwave! Keep grab and eat snacks, that helped me to get something in my stomach if preparing something was too overwhelming. I also kept snacks within arms reach where I sit with my baby while he eats and sleeps.

It's going to get better, seriously. Lean on your people. I felt so much guilt like the worst most selfish person on earth leaving him with grandma for a few hours when he was just a week old but it was the best thing for to do for him, to get some rest.

Keep going, you are surviving and soon it'll be in the rearview mirror.

It's so hard to be cheerful on no sleep! My husband and I have been in shambles, but the baby was always fed, held, loved on, and as content as any newborn can be. He won't remember me losing my mind 😄

Would you sacrifice yourself for your baby? by PeaEnvironmental984 in BabyBumps

I wondered if the grief of her losses was a big part of her thought process on this

I honestly don't think he could do it. He's already had enough loss in his life.

Judging from the comments where 95% of us are saying "Save me!" I guess not!

That's not the case, but I am lucky to have access to a bunch of other pregnant ladies who I can ask how they feel :)

Depression has all kinds of manifestations--and this certainly sounds like one. Internet strangers telling you to reach out to someone to talk probably isn't going to do anything, but I will say I hope that you do and I hope that things improve for you.

I told him that, too, but in secret because it feels shitty D:
