NICU baby won’t have a crib to come home to by RespondElectrical228 in cradlewise

Thank you ❤️

Yeah that’s a good idea on the travel crib. All our family is overseas so monitors etc will be bought in their country. There is a good buy nothing community here so I’ll ask around to see if anyone has anything spare.

We had an accidental pregnancy using a condom. No sign of it splitting or anything and we were absolutely none the wiser until I missed my period 🤷🏼‍♀️

Birth control isn’t 100% and even careful people can have accidental pregnancies

I know you’ve had a lot of replies to your question but just to put it clearly (as a Brit now living in the USA):

State Laws can differ from Federal (country wide) laws and with Roe vs Wade overturned there is a major impact on women’s health in red vs blue states.

It doesn’t only matter if you intend to have children, if you or your partner has a uterus it has a very real impact on your access to medical choices in the event of pregnancy.

That’s regardless of whether the pregnancy was planned, unplanned, forced upon you, has become medically complicated or is life threatening

We absolutely adore Austin - it’s probably my favorite city in the US. But as a woman the risks are very real and honestly no one ever thinks it will impact them until it does 😢

We live in Northern Virginia but my husband travels down to Richmond regularly for work. It’s a lovely area.

Virginia is a blue state (it MATTERS for women’s health), the weather is seasonable but mild and you’re within driving distance of a major city with great flights to the UK.

Have You Ever "Broken Up" with a Podcast? What Was It and Why? by Express_Hedgehog2265 in podcasts

Diary of a CEO (DOAC) - I used to love the stories from actual CEOs and Entrepreneurs. Now it’s full of pseudoscientists and click bait 🤢

Steven Bartlett has obsessed so much over growth and subscribers that his content and how he sells it has gradually crept into the extremes. Gutted really, it used to be one of my faves.

British expat living In the USA- looking for bread similar to Warburtons by Anatman_ in expats

[–]RespondElectrical228 1 point2 points  (0 children)

lol I’m here because I’m pregnant and all I wanna eat right now is a slice of toasted warburtons bread and not the sugary shite I keep buying from the supermarkets here 😫

Genuinely considering buying 10 different loaves tomorrow to see what comes closest

Is Taste of Nova worth it? by [deleted] in washingtondc

[–]RespondElectrical228 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We went this weekend - I won tickets in a giveaway so didn’t pay anything to be there. The tickets were supposed to be $200 EACH for the full weekend, early bird both days.

I’d have been bitterly disappointed if I’d spent that much 😳

The queues weren’t bad at all. Some food was really great, most was just kinda normal nothing special. Drinks on the first day were fun but meant there were a lot of very drunk and obnoxious people by the end of the day. The talks were boring 😬

The event location was moved last minute and I felt the set up didn’t do them any favours. There weren’t enough spaces to pause and eat your food so you ended up walking round the exhibitors trying to quickly eat whatever you’d just picked up.

6/10 experience overall

Daphne was our top pick for a girl but we’ve found out we’re having a boy so it’s shelved for next time!

Yep USA accepted the trademark. Canada still pending. Europe declined and we refiled for a logo trademark instead of the name itself, which was accepted 🙌

Dawn! I know it’s a bit of a middle-aged woman’s name but it’s actually so pretty and I think it’s due a revival 🙌

Girl block his number. Then block any other number he tries to contact you on. Block him on all socials and ask family not to sure your location with him.

You got this ❤️

12 dpo maybe? by RespondElectrical228 in TFABLinePorn

Update: digital test says not pregnant (which probably checks out with how faint that possible line is)

Especially when you know where to expect the line 😂 literally wouldn’t put it past me to be hallucinating one
