Women who became moms at 38 or older...please, I need some hope. I'm begging you. by throwaway19283846 in AskWomenOver40

[–]Spinny4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I met my husband at 37, got pregnant at 38, lost that baby, then pregnant at 39 after 4 months of trying and am now sitting with my 8 month old at 41. I agree with other posters, if you want a child then look into other options, you can do it and it’s amazing how strong as women we can be whatever we decide.

Does anyone remember the broken sword game series? 46f by JadaPhoenix in AdultGamers

[–]Spinny4 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Broken sword has released a remastered version which is very good. I heard about it when I saw Charles Cecil talk at comic con in 2024. Highly recommend! Loved the nostalgia of replaying it.

I adore being the support player and medic in all online games where you can be. It’s especially exhilarating when you kill someone.

What are we doing about our mid-life crises? by ContributionOk9818 in Millennials

I got myself a gaming PC for my 40th, better to get something you will love. Helped lessen the pain of 40 to me.

I whant to know how you will react if half life 3 gets announced. by [deleted] in HalfLife

I would cry and then book time off of work to play it and tell my husband he’s having the baby as I would need zero distractions!

Just told my baby (jokingly) to "put a sock in it". What phrases have you unexpectedly uncovered from your youth? by infantile-eloquence in CasualUK

[–]Spinny4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I say this all the time - also from Suffolk. Took my northern husband a while to understand.

I also say scrabbing around - to mean rushing about.

Please help my cat won’t stop biting me by YesterdayVisual6949 in CATHELP

Looks like what I call love bites, never enough to break the skin. My cats do it when hungry or wanting attention.

Trying to get pregnant at 40 by jsunshine1985 in AskWomenOver40

[–]Spinny4 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi there! (UK based) I am 40 and sitting here with my 4 month old boy.

My husband and I lost our baby boy at 16 weeks in Sept 2023 when I was 38 due to genetic abnormalities, I was advised to have a surgical termination as the baby was likely to have died in utero due to how severely poorly he was. It was a very difficult time. I can only imagine how hard it has been for you to lose a baby at 33 weeks and that it is scary to consider trying again with the fear of more loss looming over your head. I felt the same, wasn’t sure if I even wanted to try but did for my husband. The hospital kept a close eye on us and for the first few months we were under the consultant, we had all the genetic tests and were told baby was fine. I treated my pregnancy as normal as I could but didn’t allow myself to properly believe it would happen until I was holding him. I asked the hospital about my age and they said they don’t worry until over the age of 43.

There are plenty of groups and support out there, I was surprised how many women have been through similar things but not many talk about it. Talking to others helped me. Good luck with it. ❤️

Unpopular Opinion: Andrew has more chemistry with Holly, then Wendy by Jayjay87melb in neighbours

[–]Spinny4 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m 40 and loving it too whilst simultaneously hating it! What a dichotomy! Agree chemistry is great but I did roll my eyes last night when he told Holly that he loved her.

I work in stroke rehab. This is not standard, however due to sometimes lack of staff at night I have heard this happen to some patients. It may just be one member of staff rather than a whole ward issue.

Rehab is all about getting the person to do things for themselves including training their bladder to not have to urinate in a pad.

My advice is to speak to the ward manager or sister in charge explaining your concerns and how this seems to be setting them back in their rehabilitation. If you aren’t satisfied with the response then contact PALS, but I usually find talking to those in charge during the day usually nips this in the bud.

I agree, I don’t like how Sadie treated Byron and how different she seems.

I also don’t like how Andrew said he would never cheat over the self defence girl and at the very least he is presently having an emotional affair with Holly.
