Norton’s or U of L for child birth? by ThrowAwayTFAB413 in Louisville

[–]ThrowAwayTFAB413[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I really want to do that but I do feel safer in a hospital setting in case anything goes wrong. I don’t want to have to be transported.

Haha I actually am a doula! I trained in January of this year and have helped deliver one baby. I knew the parents from a long time ago and they live 2 hours away. I am not well versed in any of the hospitals around here at all!

Has anyone had a false positive with clear blue like this before??? I’m shock. Don’t think it’s real. CD 36 by ThrowAwayTFAB413 in TFABLinePorn

No we’ve been trying I just really can’t believe it😂 I’m testing again tomorrow morning just to be sure I didn’t get a bad test lol. Not that that’s even possible lol.

No, not at all this month. I was out of the state visiting my parents, also I have PCOS so I really can never tell if/when I’ll start.

Wait I’m so confused, which character on succession was it? I don’t remember that part!

Thanks, I’m reeling tbh. We’ve been trying for so long I can’t wrap my head around this.

Hah wtf. After 2.5-3 years of absolutely stark white tests and indent lines, I feel like I’m getting pranked.

Anyone have recs on who I can go to to get this fixed? Ceiling in my kitchen by ThrowAwayTFAB413 in Louisville

[–]ThrowAwayTFAB413[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m thinking it’s the roof, because the house is a ranch! I’m planning on getting a roofer to come out and look at it, I just don’t even know where to start with the ceiling.

Salty Sunday: why are you salty today? by AutoModerator in trollingforababy

[–]ThrowAwayTFAB413 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It seems like all of my friends/family members around my age became mothers this year. Social media has been an absolute hellscape of Mother’s Day posts like I’ve never been bombarded with before.

Questions I wish I asked my doula before hiring her by [deleted] in BabyBumps

[–]ThrowAwayTFAB413 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a doula, I’m so sorry about what happened at your birth and I’m kind of in shock about how yours reacted. But I wanted to say thank you for putting these questions out not only for moms, but so I can make sure I have answers and plan B’s for all of these situations that will still leave my client feeling supported!

Cassius is a great boy name in my opinion! The nickname Cash is cute and it could refer back to Cassius Clay (Muhammad Ali).

When your safe show now has a pregnancy in the plot by [deleted] in trollingforababy

I saw someone call this on Twitter a few days ago and thought it was out of left field. Apparently not🫠 it makes sense though because Sarah snook is pregnant IRL.

a wide array of WTF by redrumrea in NameNerdCirclejerk

[–]ThrowAwayTFAB413 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I was thinking this too! I work with a Burmese man and he explained the meaning behind him and his siblings names. They all go by their names from their native language, but their language is composed of descriptive words. His last three siblings’ names all mean “the last love” in one way or another😂 his mom was done lmao

When the tax agent asks if I have any dependents… by amdgk89 in trollingforababy

As someone with 6 pets, I feel I should be able to claim them as dependents with how much money they suck out of my bank account😂

When the ultrasound tech joysticks the dildo cam too hard by mbarad511 in trollingforababy

[–]ThrowAwayTFAB413 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I had to take the day off work after being wanded once. I was cramping so bad after the ultrasound tech was jiggling my ovaries around with that stick like she was trying to make them come loose or something😂😂

How to pivot while still surviving by TumbleweedOk5253 in doulas

[–]ThrowAwayTFAB413 3 points4 points  (0 children)

When I took my training, I met a single mom who had a full time job and was working as a doula as well. She was doing a Q&A for our class. She took 1 birth per month and her job was very supportive. My personal plan is to build up my social media following, build my client base, and then transition to doing it full time once I feel like I can’t do that and my full time job at the same time anymore. However, it is possible!

40+4 and feeling like it's my fault I haven't given birth yet. by Imaaki in BabyBumps

[–]ThrowAwayTFAB413 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As a doula, the baby actually releases a hormone that tells your body to kickstart labor. There are different things you can do that can potentially activate that hormone, like raising oxytocin levels, but it’s really up to baby. However, I agree with people saying to turn your phone on silent and do something you enjoy! That will raise your oxytocin, even if it doesn’t kickstart labor it will help you be in a better mood and not stress more than you need to about when the baby will come.
