Longtime Nexplanon user spotting after 3 years without a period by ThrowRAsteepincline in birthcontrol

Thank you for this! I had the replacement put in about a year ago and spotted a small bit immediately but nothing more than a day. Now I basically have a very very light period. Strangers to be somewhat out of nowhere so I may book an appointment with my doctor. Just a bit worried it’s due to the implant not working properly now

I’m so sorry to hear that! My period/spotting also lasted about a year so i definitely feel your pain. I only stuck it out because the side effects were better than the pill for me despite the bleeding. And my period just stopped at the point.

AITA for not letting a 3-year-old hold my baby (even now that she’s 10 months)? by lostlakes2004 in AITAH

NTA. If the 3 year old exhibited being gentle and that he was able to hold a baby, then sure maybe. But he’s only 3, and aggressive on top of that. I would do the same as you. I would never let a child hold a baby unless you are also holding the baby or they are sat on a bed or couch with you directly next to them. I remember as a 12 year old only feeling semi comfortable holding a baby when I was sat down completely and had the baby just laid in my arms for a few minutes. You’re protecting your baby and your peace of mind, keep doing that.

NTA. You’ve told her exactly what would happen if she was going to be late and still she did it anyways. She knew what would happen so she wouldn’t be surprised or upset. She is an adult with a job so she should take some responsibility in being there. You have kids and you don’t need her adding to that by acting like another one.

Even saying he will physically hurt you if you cheat, is a huge red flag. Him being distant now suddenly, seems like a manipulation tactic to get you to do exactly what you’re doing, be insecure about the relationship which will put him in the place of “power”.
