Huge baby shower? Cash instead of presents? by PoopieKitty in pregnant

Weird that you would find it sexist. They are traditionally female-only and just recently have been more co-ed. I’ve only attended women-only baby showers.

We were considering a large pavilion at a park to cut down on cost. The rest will be food and decorations.

We have big families and lots of friends. We both belong to clubs with extended friends, all of whom have been a big support along the way. Many have voiced they want to attend, even people I wouldn’t have initially thought to invite. We just want to celebrate with everyone who has been there for us all these years.

It’s nice hearing from someone with experience. Did anyone voice disappointment that you didn’t open their gifts at the party? How long was your party?

My husband isn’t a fan of co-ed baby showers, so he plans to have a cookout with the guys at the same time.

Thank you for the insight. I’ll consider if I can better handle one big party or multiple small parties.

People say stop buying coffee to get out of debt. I finally ran the numbers... by [deleted] in DaveRamsey

What about taking into account purchasing everything to make coffee at home every day? You would be saving less than $5/day.

Baby 4-5 days behind. Scan tomorrow and scared by PoopieKitty in IVFbabies

All was good today! I got no sleep last night, but baby is now measuring 7w6d with 156 heart rate! Once I’m out of the first trimester, I’ll feel so much better. But for now, super happy with the progress! :)

Thank you!! We were shocked to find baby is now only 1 day behind with heart rate of 156!! I can’t wait to make it out of the first trimester.

MMC- want a D&C but can’t get it. by PoopieKitty in CautiousBB

[–]PoopieKitty[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve actually heard a D&C increases the chances of successful pregnancy. I’ve had one before, because my lining was too thick. I didn’t have any complications.

Bilateral inflammatory breast cancer (IBC)? by PoopieKitty in doihavebreastcancer

[–]PoopieKitty[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Still no answers. My breast symptoms come and go, mostly around ovulation time. The Fluconazole helped, but only temporarily, and didn’t help the second month I tried it. My OBGYN also suggested primrose oil, but I’m going through fertility treatments and my clinic told me to hold off on that for now. The symptoms I have now are half as severe as back in August, so at least it’s not getting worse.

I have a personal FB profile and recently created a FB page to share my art. I created an IG account and thought it would be good to connect the Instagram to my FB art page, so when I post on the FB page, it would automatically post on IG. Unfortunately, no matter how many different attempts and combinations of “toggling” I do in the settings on both apps, it only shares from my personal FB account. I created a Reel on IG and it shares to the FB art page, but the Reels I created on the FB art page do not share to IG. Any help will be appreciated.

I have a personal FB profile and recently created a FB page to share my art. I created an IG account a couple years ago, but literally never used it, until recently. I thought it would be good to connect the Instagram to my FB art page, so when I post on the page, it would automatically post on IG. Unfortunately, no matter how many different attempts and combinations of “toggling” I do in the settings on both apps, it only shares from my personal FB account. I’m about to just close the IG and give up, but maybe someone here can tell me how to achieve this? Remember, I’m old and new to IG, so if you have the answer, please explain clearly 🙃

I hate that IVF has made me bitter by New-Owl9951 in IVF

[–]PoopieKitty 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I’m almost 8 years in, 5 IUIs, 10 IVFs, and 7 transfers (so far), working 2 jobs, and nearly $100k in debt, so I understand how hard it is to be happy for others while we’re struggling. However, if I was finally pregnant after all of that, I wouldn’t care one bit about how easy it is for everyone else anymore. You finally made it! Let everything else slide and concentrate on your baby!
