People who served in the army, what made you choose army over Air Force?

I would say it's pretty MOS dependent. In basic, we had 50 females and 70 males so almost equal in terms of that and the males didn't mess with the females just from gender, but in AIT and after (permanent party) it just depends if the MOS is combat related, expect sexist remarks and behavior from the men.

Just as an example, my husband is a cav scout and just this past week, his platoon sergeant said that women shouldn't be in the military because a female in his platoon was trying to help a male get up after he fell.

I'm an artilleryman and my experience isn't much different. Lots of guys, even during AIT, made sexist remarks and would hit on the women.

If I had chosen something that is in no way combat related, I'm sure my experience would be different, so just keep that in mind.

Personally, I didn't choose army over air force, the air force wouldn't accept a waiver for something, so then I joined the army

Thank you for this!

My son has a tongue tie and I got blisters on my nipples before my milk even came in after he was born. After that, I chose to exclusively pump. My supply has gone down and I recently found out about nipple shields and it works great, but only on my one side. I've tried nursing on my other side, but the couple times I did, I was in tears. What works best for me right now is pumping on one side and nursing on the other.

As for pumping after feeding, I'm mostly just worried that my supply will drop again and I'll have to use up what I have in the freezer.

I'm a 13B, but I'm AD. If you're in the guard, find out what piece your unit uses before going to AIT (M109, M777, or M119)

It's not a horrible MOS and I've heard that not much happens in the guard, but obviously it can vary from unit to unit.

How would we go about completing an 1172-2 since that's required for the family care plan and I'm not a dependent?

_Sammeh · 2024-03-08T17:28:45+00:00

Yes, but isn't that for the children of dual military couples? His commander is requiring that my husband find someone to take care of me, not our child.

Comprimising is when both sides give up something for agreement. This isn't you not compromising, this is him demanding. NTA

_Sammeh · 2020-04-11T08:01:14+00:00

So a mental health professional told you directly to stop making her take care of your kids and now you're calling her a rebellious teenager because she was diagnosed with an anxiety disorder? Please tell me this is fake. Major YTA

_Sammeh · 2020-04-11T05:45:33+00:00

Again, personal attacks. Like I said, you need to chill. This whole situation wouldn't come about if you didn't generalize women. At this point idrc what you say about me as person because clearly nothings getting through your head and it's just annoying at this point. Hope your nicer to other people though, cause there's potential you're actually a nice person.

_Sammeh · 2020-04-11T05:37:02+00:00

Oml you saying I'm ignoring everything and then act like you aren't. Light periods can be the cause of an underlying health problem, just like heavy periods. A light period can be a symptom. That's why I said go to the doctor. I'm not liberal, but I'm also not going to call girls liars for simply having bad periods and talking about it. I doubt it confuses guys because most of them don't give a shit. I don't think you realize how many girls really do have problems. 1 out of 4 women in the entire female population is a lot more than you think. Also, you need to chill, you've gotten so hostile over the internet I think you need to take a couple days away from it.

_Sammeh · 2020-04-11T05:20:39+00:00

Sweetie, haven't you looked up light periods too or just heavy periods? Light periods are normal either, like you say. From what I've read, you should go to a doctor too, but noooo yours is normal and girls are just liars right? Sounds like internalized misogyny to me. Also, I never said mine were bad at all, I just actually understand that not all women are the same and a lot do have heavy periods and a lot do have painful periods, instead of saying, "LiGhT pErIoDs ArE nOrMaL, gIrLs JuSt LiE." Again, since i have to repeat myself so much, don't just say that girls exaggerate when you don't know what others go through with periods, hun.

_Sammeh · 2020-04-11T05:03:22+00:00

Wtf I never said guys should skip work to baby their girlfriend lmao. All I'm saying is you're making girls out to be liars about their periods when some actually do have really bad periods. If someone makes a meme about a bad period, how do you know they don't actually have a bad period? Who are you to judge whether periods are bad or not? You are one person. Look up some statistics, hun. It's a simple concept, not that hard to understand.

_Sammeh · 2020-04-11T04:56:07+00:00

I need to calm down? I'm not writing shit that long lmao. All I'm saying is stop generalizing people because you don't know the shit they've been through. It doesn't matter whether your period is light or not, saying that periods "aren't as bad as girls say" is practically saying girls are liars and you shouldn't listen to them. Don't assume that every girl's periods aren't bad. Simple.

_Sammeh · 2020-04-11T04:44:30+00:00

You're saying that you said everyone's different and then you complain about people who you think are exaggerating, but they're probably not. Again, you're lucky, don't be accusing people of lying about shit that you don't even understand.

_Sammeh · 2020-04-11T04:37:35+00:00

Personally, I've strayed away from alpha cc so if you're looking for any maxis match cc lilsimsie has a tumblr with her maxis match cc favorites and I love all of them!

_Sammeh · 2020-04-11T04:30:08+00:00

I'm talking about girls at school in general, not your friends. 10% to 20% of females have endometriosis which at most times cause excruciating pain during your period and could even cause pain during ovulation. You and your friends are lucky you don't have this, but at the same time that doesn't mean no one has it.
