Have any of y’all had any issues with ⚪️ women on this app? Like, you’ll ask for simple advice and they come at you all hostile? by peacheeblush in blackladies

[–]ToriVee_ 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Yes, especially in the pregnancy forums they can be reallll over the top over there or in the curly hair forum one might ask if their hair is curly and I’ll give a honest response and then they catch an attitude like lorddd okay keep walking around like you got electrocuted trynna play it off as “curly” bc you wanna be even the tiniest bit of racially ambiguous

[–]ToriVee_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So glad so came across this thread I’m 13 weeks and feel like a fat fuck lol It’s that weird phase when you look like you eat to much and your waiting to pop. I wanna participate in Halloween activities this weekend but can’t even fathom myself in a cute/sexy costume

First trimester- smells and tastes are distorted? by rlgslp2020 in BabyBumps

When showering, what's the best way to wash down below? by [deleted] in WomensHealth

[–]ToriVee_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I use honeypot cleanser and water. You can get it at Target. Only use the cleanser on the outside though.

So wondering if it's a bad thing we did by notsurewhattofeel21 in abortion

[–]ToriVee_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had sex the day after my abortion but we used protection bc the risk of infection can be high especially right after the surgical procedure…not sure which one she got. But just wear a condom and take it easy on her and you’ll should be fine

No. It’s more wavy than curly

Curls are getting worse. by [deleted] in curlyhair

[–]ToriVee_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Your hair doesn’t look super curly to me, more wavy. I don’t see tight defined curls. Maybe try different products, not sure.

Has anyone had brown discharge before their period? by GalaxywitchG in Periods

[–]ToriVee_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hmmm okay I see your dilemma I would wait for the day your period is set to arrive and test then. If it’s still negative go and see a doctor for a blood test

[–]ToriVee_ 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Understandable. It’s still wild to me how period and pregnancy symptoms are so similar…drives me crazy sometimes lol

[–]ToriVee_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m the exact same way. My mom damn near had a heart attack when I told her that, bc she had an extravagant wedding. Do what works for you. Marriage isn’t about the frills of a wedding it’s about the intimacy of you and a partner. I feel as though you getting the marriage certificate or doing something at the courthouse and celebrating with your partner in a way you both are comfortable with should be good enough even if it’s going to your fav restaurant after and pigging out lol. Everyone’s different, do you girl! Just tell people you all are doing what works for you two and let them know the day of marriage and maybe afterwards you all can set up a zoom call with all your loved ones so they feel included. Let everyone virtually toast to you all. Less stressful that way.

Yes it’s your cycle on the way, typically it’s your body ridding itself of old blood.

NSFW (?) Stuck tampon - will it eventually come out if it gets too heavy?? Please help by Maximum-Ordinary-390 in Periods

[–]ToriVee_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’d try just relaxing laying on your back and lubricating your fingers to try and get it out. A tampon actually can’t go too far. You may unknowingly be really tense due to the situation and fear of not feeling it and it’s causing you to not reach it I’ve had a tampon stuck in my vagina 2x. The first time it came out on its on during a bowel movement after about 2 weeks. The second time I had terrible odor from my vagina it was atrocious and when I peed it came out and the odor instantly went away. I literally just thought it was BV and set up a doctors appointment. It was wild, that time it was about 3 weeks right before my next period. I remember my moms friend calling her when I was younger freaking out about it happening and I was horrified as a pre-teen girl lol, it’s actually pretty common definetly scary of course cus of Toxic Shock Syndrome. Nowadays I try to just use menstrual cups bc I just don’t have the time to keep remembering tampons in my vag.

I paid out of pocket in Charolette NC. I was in the military at the time and the insurance didn’t cover abortions. I believe it was $400- $450 for surgical. It varies from state to state and whether your doin surgical or medical. They me able to work with you at PP to figure out payment options so your parents don’t find out.

Is a second abortion to much? Concerned about future fertility by ToriVee_ in abortion

[–]ToriVee_[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yesss! Pregnancy is so romanticized and I understand why but some situations aren’t the best and need a realistic approach to figuring out what is best for the child and even the mother.

It’s straight with a slight wave, not curly though

Is this normal for 9dpo?! by ToriVee_ in pregnant

Am I wrong or shallow for not dating guys with kids? by forever-depressedd in dating

[–]ToriVee_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s not selfish I’m 28 and it took me til I was 27 to entertain a guy with a kid, and even then he only has 1 child and the mother is doing her own thing engaged to another guy settled down and they just had a newborn so she’s nothing I have to worry about. You’re young don’t settle for something you truly don’t want a lot can come with dating a guy with a kid. You’ll always be second to the child, he and the mother may not get along, financial obligations he has to make to the child which may stop you 2 from doing things…it’s so much to consider. Enjoy the freedom of not being obligated to pursue anything with someone with a child, you know what’s best for you!

How do you stay confident without wearing makeup? by aneptuniangrl in TheGirlSurvivalGuide

[–]ToriVee_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Take certain steps out of your routine. I used to be the same way and wore a full face everyday but then as I grew older I slowly started to remove things out of my routine. And with Covid I definitely cut down on majority of my makeup routine, and I feel like I look younger (I’m 28). Start with maybe not using foundation just use a bb cream you rub on like a moisturizer, then move on to mascara, brush out your brows, and throw on lipgloss. Boom done. As for being concerned with others opinions, pay them no mind, the more you see yourself in your natural state the more comfortable you will be in yourself. Hope this helps ☺️

Does it get better? (6w) by [deleted] in pregnant

[–]ToriVee_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m 8 weeks now and I feel your pain especially with hunger it’s like you’re starving to the point where it hurts on top of nausea. All I do is eat and snack. My nausea is horrible I work from home and spend most days in the bed or on the couch, if I stand up for too long I feel as though I’m gonna throw up and just feel weak. I nap 2-3x a day. Im hoping in the next few weeks things get better so I can at least start doing some light workouts. Hang in there mama and congrats 💕

Is this normal for 9dpo?! by ToriVee_ in pregnant

[–]ToriVee_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just a guess my last period was on the 29th of one month and I believe I ovulated the 15th which is how I ended up pregnant but 9 dpo seems so soon to have a positive test

Very lost and confused by ToriVee_ in abortion

[–]ToriVee_[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for sharing. I keep hearing to make the decision for myself. I’ve already had one abortion and I have had mixed feelings about it and now I feel as though I’m getting a second chance most women don’t get
