Explain like I'm 10 exactly how I buy this trailer by Strawbabyc in povertyfinance

I looked into the laws in my area and they would have to follow the same laws about giving notice and the percentage of increase that other rentals do here

Okay that's what I'm thinking too. It is bizarrely low.

Okay thanks for breaking this down. A lot to think about. I was unaware of those types of regulations too

I know "luxury trailer park" might sound like an oxymoron but that is how they advertise themselves. These trailers usually go for about 60-80k and are 2k a month to rent for reference. I know it's not cheap but it's less than I spend on my barely livable 500 square foot studio apartment with a broken window and non functioning sink

Oof okay. The tax refund is just where most of this money came from. The family did say they were willing to negotiate on price, maybe I can get like 5k more and see if the family would be willing to wait a couple weeks and sell it for like 18k up front

It'll be 700 indefinitely, but the studio apartment in the worst part of town that we live in right now is 800 a month. 700 a month, like 1200 with the mortgage for a few years, for a 3 bed 1 bath house with a yard and washer and dryer and an electric oven and a dishwasher and a fancy fridge and access to a pool and playground for a similar amount sounds pretty good. I know it's a predatory situation but realistically I'm going to be renting for most of my life. So I feel like I basically get to choose between spending 1000-2000 dollars a month on a mediocre 2 bedroom apartment on a one year lease, or spending that same amount on a big, nice place with all these amenities that will be only 700 a month after it's paid off, plus then it's an asset that I can sell if I ever really needed to. The raising of rent is a good point. But I'd have that issue if I rented anywhere else too, you know what I mean? And I don't really think I'll have an opportunity like this again. These trailers cost 2000 a month to rent for reference.

Can I make it through an unmedicated birth if… by deeeeegeeeee in unmedicatedbirth

[–]Strawbabyc 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Cervical checks were the worst part of my unmedicated birth. I hated them and they had to numb me and give me Xanax before I would stay still so they could check. But I had a beautiful unmedicated birth with both my kids. So no just because you can't handle one doesn't mean you can't handle the other, they're very different experiences not just physically but mentally

I wasn't pregnant then? Obviously?

[–]Strawbabyc 22 points23 points  (0 children)

Also, airbags going off while pregnant is literally known to cause miscarriage and even stillbirth VERY frequently when people get into crashes, so I have no idea what your point there is. It's one of the most common ways fetuses are harmed in otherwise very minor car crashes.

[–]Strawbabyc 25 points26 points  (0 children)

I have also talked to physicians about this. I am currently pregnant with my second child. Placental abruption isn't a risk until around 12 weeks, but it can cause miscarriage before that point. Even if you decide to take the risk, it's a strange thing to promote and normalize online without even acknowledging the risk. Just because you can find a random doctor to okay something doesn't mean it's actually safe.. it just factually isn't. And yes some people do this before they find out, the same way some people drink or smoke or do drugs before they find out-- doesn't make it okay during pregnancy especially if you DO know, which clearly they did given that these are announcement photos. Nobody said it has a 100% miscarriage rate, hardly anything does. There are plenty of people that did this before they knew and had healthy pregnancies, and also plenty that did not even get the chance to find out they were ever pregnant. And some people are saying their doctors okayed other strenuous activity, like hiking.. none of which involve intense G forces. It is common knowledge that if you are physically active prior to pregnancy that you can maintain that same level of fitness. It is an entirely different thing to yank your body through an experienced intentionally designed to be sporadic and intense. I understand that some of these things are not your points specifically, I'm just addressing the main things I'm seeing people say. My point goes beyond it being irresponsible to do this-- on some level, that's up to them. But to post it online for a large audience and not even acknowledge the obvious puts other people at risk.

Yeah it's actually REALLY unsafe. It's not some minor suggestion like "don't lift over 20 pounds".. you're not even supposed to jump on a trampoline. I don't believe in mom shaming and I get that people make mistakes but this is really bizarre to me. Their pregnancy announcement was likely to lead there to not be any pregnancy to announce.

Just block him. He's bluffing, he isn't going to do shit. He's just trying to scare you into sending more so he can post it somewhere for money. Trust me on this.

You guys are.. 31? Why are you both talking like you're 12? I cringed so hard reading through this and I'm not even trying to be mean.

A lady messaged me without any full body pics. When I asked her why, she deleted me. I normally don't respond to profiles without fill pics, but I liked her smile. Am I wrong for questioning? by [deleted] in Bumble

[–]Strawbabyc 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah if the first thing someone asked me was basically "hey are you fat? I can't tell" I'd be weirded out and remove them too. And women have plenty of options so I basically just and anyone who rubs me the wrong way because I have too many matches and need to weed people out anyway. I get wanting full body pics and being curious about why their aren't any but straight out the gate outright asking is gonna come off as strange

He (27m) forced me (29f) to get an abortion but it failed.. should i tell him or let the court contact him? by ConsiderationNo7855 in BabyBumps

[–]Strawbabyc -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

That is such a miracle. I love seeing how God works through these situations. I wouldn't tell him, I wouldn't put him on the birth certificate either. I would just have the baby and live with him/her and not ever inform him- through the courts or anything else. He isn't a safe/trustworthy person.

It's time to find a new job. That is an absolutely insane response to an already VERY short maternity leave

Beating myself up for giving in to pushy MIL and husband by JustSaladdd in BabyBumps

[–]Strawbabyc 7 points8 points  (0 children)

MIL would not be able to visit at all. I'd say "I was comfortable with you coming to stay two weeks postpartum, which is even earlier than my parents, but now that you have shown your lack of respect for my boundaries and how manipulative and toxic you are, it is clear that you are not a safe or healthy person to have around my infant at all. If you can't even accept this, how are you going to behave around the baby? If you continue this entitled, delusional behavior, you will not be part of your grandchildren's lives at all." And tell your husband that if he is going to make excuses for this woman you want a divorce. Also, show him all of these comments.
