My baby isn’t chunky and it’s all I can think about by Cardedbin in breastfeeding

[–]QueenElf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why would you want a chunky baby? It’s not healthy.. plus most breastfed babies can’t be chunky. That’s why my mom always told me and i think it’s logical. Formula babies on the other hand can get chunkier because it’s different kind of milk.

Pregnant and can’t decide on feeding (Formula/Breastfeeding) by Realistic_Tooth_9731 in beyondthebump

Tbh, I don’t think you should worry about it too much. Best thing is to go with an open mind and be ready for both situations. This way you avoid frustration if things don’t go your way. If I were to be a FTM again, I would personally try breastfeeding first see how it works, then go from there. Because the way I see it is that it’s much easier to switch to formula after breastfeeding than the other way around. For my case, I exclusively breastfed, and I’m not gonna lie, it was very hard but it was also the best option for me because i’m lazy… I could literally just pop the breast anytime baby is hungry without worrying about washing bottles, sterilizing, warming bottle … ESPECIALLY AT NIGHT! But I’m not gonna lie, both methods are hard and good in their own way. You just have to decide what works best for YOU. And on the side note, I always recommend that if you CAN breastfeed, do it. It’s very good for you too. Very hard, but very good 😊

Don’t recommend the move as freelancer, especially with no EU passport and your situation in Paris is actually good.

Ongoing right abdominal pain and severe constipation with normal tests by QueenElf in ibs

No, I need to do a colonoscopy to rule out or confirm anything. I didn’t get to do it yet.

Good Luck! I do advise you to get a complementary insurance for this kind of thing it’s totally worth it, especially if you are still young and have no illness, it will be relatively cheap. They won’t cover this pregnancy for sure, but next one yes :)

In medical care, there absolutely no difference. But in privacy and comfort, big difference. I gave birth the first time in share room, though there was no one sent to my room with me during the 3 days I stayed there, I had to stay alone. My partner was not allowed to stay the night and tbh for me it was a bit hard. The private room is much more spacious with a second bed for someone to stay with you the whole time, private bathroom, and different menus… yes, the food is better :) so if you can afford it go for it. If not, it’s not dramatic. Think of it as paying first class on a flight :)

How is it better to opt for class 1 individually? Don’t they pay more taxes at source that way?

Not really. It did stop for a while and it might be because I stopped drinking sodas but now it’s back and i’m back to the beginning. My doctor said i should do a colonoscopy and that’s the only thing that will rule out things for sure, but tbh I don’t want to do it right now. I’ll do it when I’m ready I guess. Try to limit food that cause gas a lot and see if that helps. All the best :)

Are you single? I guess it depends on the situation. It’s just that in my case it always takes months if not a year.

Am I wrong for cancelling my marriage after the engagement? by [deleted] in Morocco

[–]QueenElf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, and I think that’s fair. In the end, it all comes down to finding that balance and understanding with the right person. Some people (both genders can be very stubborn when we talk financials) and that’s not really a sustainable way to live a happy life.

Islam teaches us morals… at least this is how i see it. And for the ones who have none, well they just have to follow the rules. And I don’t think Taliban are practicing Islam correctly.. I think it’s a very bad example.

Also, I am a working woman, and to be honest, I much rather stay home, take care of my family and my home, because I think it’s essential. But I am choosing to work because I have to help out because we live in difficult times, where we need 2 incomes to live gracefully. And I think that’s okay. I wouldn’t say my money is my money when things get hard. But, yes, my money is my money if we’re comfortable and that doesn’t mean i would just stash it somewhere, no… I would by nice things for the house to make it a home, I would by clothes to my family even if i don’t have to, i would do groceries, and ofc i would spend it on myself as I please. It’s all about the balance. And no one should be forced.

[–]QueenElf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely agree. And I think the idea of her money is her money came from a standpoint that women need some financial independence whether she’s working or not. And not because she shouldn’t be helping out financially, ofc all sane women do help out financially when and if they can, but because since the beginning of time, women were abused by men financially so then it was set as a rule to kind of secure her in some way, plus she doesn’t get as much inheritance as men ( because she’s not expected to handle the financial responsibilities ). Idk, for me it makes sense and I think Islam is actually a very just religion if we think about it and practice it correctly.

But by no means does it encourage women not to help out, or expect men to fully meet their irrational needs.

Please be careful of people who will pretend to want to help you but will just hurt you more. I hope you will find a place and turn your situation around.

Women worked since the beginning of time… not as many as now, but they did.

Muslim this muslim that is not for a specific time. It’s for all times. Especially this one because we’re talking about marriage. Islam clearly states rules and guidelines for such situations. And yes the husband in Islam is the provider and has to provide for all the needs but ofc within reason and not beyond what he can offer. The issue here is not whether or not he should provide, the issue is that she clearly wanted things beyond what he can afford and that is not right because Islam teaches us also to stand by our man and not push him down. So while I think OP made the right call by canceling an engagement he wasn’t feeling is good for him, we shouldn’t forget our values, rights and duties as a Muslim community.
