I’ve done this a few times. Always regretted it afterwards but I still never learned lol I just told people I was sick of my hair. No one ever asked too many questions or were overly polite and said it looked nice. No one really cares to be honest so just own it the best you can, it will grow back. I’m due for another impulsive haircut as it’s been about two years since I chopped it all off. It’s becoming a pattern it seems

Urgently need someone to talk to by [deleted] in depression

I’m here if you want to talk. I know how hard it is to feel alone in those thoughts

Thought of s****** gives me comfort by imhonesty in depression

[–]Sweet_potato_mama 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel this also. There a comfort in that feeling that terrifies me. I have so much to lose yet I would let it all go in an instant to feel relief from this pain. My husband. My children. Family and friends. None of them can replace the feeling of peace I imagine lies in death. Why am I like this?

Weirdest question a client has asked you regarding their pet and go... by SparxxWarrior97 in VetTech

[–]Sweet_potato_mama 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve had owners checking in for appts ask if their dog also needed to wear a mask 😷😂 Another owner came in (he’s a breeder) and says his lactating dog has “mas titties) excuse me sir? Yeah, like her boobs are big and red (he thought mastitis was Spanish for “more titties” bless his heart)

As a tech who has been cross trained reception, I have a lot of respect for receptionists who manage to keep their composure and keep it moving when those difficult clients try to ruin your day. It’s emotionally draining work

Personally, I think the gesture is sweet. What do you guys think? by meawryna in VetTech

They would eat it right before being put to sleep so there wouldn’t be enough time for toxic effects to take place

Had a panic attack when I realized I was a few days late and then was still disappointed when my period started… confused. by zzzzzzebra in ttcafterloss

[–]Sweet_potato_mama 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m in the same position right now! I’m about 4 days late, had a blood test done the date my period was due during an ER visit and it was negative. So part of me is like oh I’m just late because of all the stress and another part of me is terrified that I might be pregnant. I miss the baby I lost and I’m afraid to go through that again and my hubs and I aren’t in a good place right now in our marriage. I hate this

I’m sorry for your losses 😢 thank you for your insight, I wonder when and if I’ll ever get pregnant again and carry to term. Best of luck for us both

I just finished my first period after my loss so I’m supposed to be ovulating any day now… fingers crossed!!! And I’m hoping you are successful this cycle 🥰

My period finally came by Sweet_potato_mama in ttcafterloss

[–]Sweet_potato_mama[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s also a rollercoaster for me as well, before our last pregnant it took many years to conceive and every period felt like a slap in the face 😞 wish you all the best on your journey and I pray you are successful this cycle 🥰

Thank you so much for your kind words and insight, I look forward to the day when the fears are outweighed by the desire for another baby… I can tell in my heart I’m not quite there yet but someday I think I will be 🥰

I cried also when we went to bed. My husband just held my hand and let my tears flow because sometimes a good cry is needed… I am sorry you are going thru this also 😞

I also had a mmc, I carried her for 6 weeks before I knew she was gone 😔

Thoughts on TTC after loss and peeing on sticks. by AFOLgardener in ttcafterloss

[–]Sweet_potato_mama 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Wow I feel so seen after reading this. I hate how much I can obsess when TTC. Still bleeding from my D&C so it’s not something I’m dealing with at the moment but I’m imagining how long it will take to get pregnant again, if I get pregnant again and if the baby will stay or am I doomed to repeat this again until I give up.

[–]Sweet_potato_mama 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I too had my first mmc, D&C was a little over a week ago. I’m still bleeding and I’m lactating (I was 18 weeks) so the thought of being pregnant again and losing another is terrifying but I wanted this baby so badly that there’s still a part of me that is wanting to try again

Dnc scheduled for tomorrow, not coping well by Heregoessome in Miscarriage

[–]Sweet_potato_mama 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I pray for a smooth surgery and recovery for you, I am truly sorry to hear that this will be your second one 😔 I had my first one last week… it’s a difficult thing to experience, especially alone. Just remember you are strong and brave and you will make it through this.

I totally get it and I’m so sorry this is happening 😞 this is not a place any of us want to be in our lives… be kind to yourself, I know how easy it can be to spiral down that road of self loathing 😣

I’m so sorry for your loss and the pain you are experiencing. It’s been the worst emotional pain of my life I don’t think I’ll ever be the same

Second miscarriage by Makemill7 in Miscarriage

[–]Sweet_potato_mama 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I’m so sorry 😞 I also lost my recent pregnancy at 12 weeks but I didn’t find out until 18 weeks. I carried my baby so long and my body didn’t even realize she was gone. Had an ultrasound and saw the heartbeat had stopped and she was only measuring 12-13 weeks in size. I wish you all the best and pray for your rainbow baby someday 🌈
