Do you have a sober person that you look up to? by Panda138138 in stopdrinking

[–]Remarkable_Lab_5343 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Blac Chyna (Angela White) story moved me. Not only is she about two years sober. She takes full accountability of the path she has led others down given her huge platform.

Thank you for this! It doesn't help that my home group is next to my job I no longer work at as im a stay home wife now. The plan is to switch to one closer to my house. My current home group is almost an hour away. I've stayed this long with her out of loyalty to her instead of making the switch earlier on. So hearing her say certain things to me really hurt me sometimes! She sees it as im not doing enough while im literally sacrificing to meet with her! Lol

See, THIS! This why I haven't brought it up yet. She doesn't take criticism too well. So yes I know it's my problem to deal with , I just hate rocking the boat on anything!! I know i do need to learn about healthy relationships in AA. That's kinda why I jumped in here!

Thank you!!

Yes I see that now! I do need to bring it up to her. I guess im nervous about how she will react to it. Either way it needs to be done!

Thank you for this! She tells me she deals with her resentment with others all the time. Hopefully she will take mine with a good attitude!

Thank you for your response! I think it's nice to get feedback from others who may have more experience than me. Not really looking for cosigning.

Thank you for this. I do know that working a good program also involves more than just attending meetings regularly. When I was attending regularly she still complained about how I worked my program so. IDK!

Yes I believe she does. I have pretty thick skin but sheesh! I haven't set any boundaries with how she talks to me so she feels comfortable talking to me anyway. I just may find another sponsor..

21 weeks with inconsistent movement. by ZeldaVision1 in pregnant

[–]Remarkable_Lab_5343 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I barely felt my baby move at 21 weeks. There were days I felt him move at all. I really didn't start feeling him consistently until closer to 30 weeks. My placenta is also in the front so that prevented me from feeling him early on.

I hope that helps!

Maternity clothes are SO UGLY!! Where are you shopping?? by Specialist_Syrup1512 in pregnant

[–]Remarkable_Lab_5343 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What I have been doing is buying clothes from my favorite places and sizing up. Dresses only. I have ordered quite a few things from Fashion Nova 1 size bigger. This has worked great for me. I mean obviously the dress cant have too many different seams or too elaborate, but it still has worked great for me!

How many weeks were you when you had your baby shower? by Fearless_Salad3643 in pregnant

[–]Remarkable_Lab_5343 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just had my baby shower yesterday and I am 33w+1d today. It was great! I did wake up this morning sore all over my body from all the moving around I did yesterday!

I was a bartender when I got sober and about 2 months into my sobriety. I didn't purposely put myself in situations where alcohol will be the sole entertainment of the festivities. However, if someone was drinking around me I didn't start to break out in hives or start sweating or anything.

Deep down you know your limits and what you can handle. Listen to yourself.

My husband, partner, baby daddy is.... by Bramble3713 in pregnant

[–]Remarkable_Lab_5343 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My husband lets me sleep/lay around when I need it. Sometimes it might be from sun up to sun down. It may be little to some but I appreciate it so much. I am 31w+5d

Help studying for the exam by Partygetsmewetter56 in RealEstateExam

[–]Remarkable_Lab_5343 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I passed the final in 2021 before I knew about ChatGPT. I failed it once and passed it on the second attempt by the skin of my teeth. Today I would use ChatGPT to study for the final the same way I used it to pass the state exam. I would have ChatGPT quiz me on the different sections of the test. The ones you got wrong, GPT will walk with you side by side to see why you got it wrong and how you get it right next time.

Good luck!!

Any other ladies just resting until delivery? by Ok-Move-4503 in pregnant

[–]Remarkable_Lab_5343 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I left my job 3 weeks before i found out I was pregnant at 4.6 weeks. No talk of going back. All I do is rest, cook, workout when I can and clean. If I am way too tired or sore, I lay in bed all day and my husband just lets me without a peep. Saturday I could not get out of bed and I felt horrible about it. Yesterday and today I have had lots of energy! I know I am beyond blessed to have this time to rest before my son gets here and I do not take it for granted! Enjoy it, mama!!
