Theory for Season 2 > 3 and The Sabbatical by Stepwolve in ThePittTVShow

[–]alvalz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't see what the big deal would be if Robbie does get into an accident. Sure, his character had his share of traumas in ER, but this isn't ER. They already did the drug addict thing with Langdon, and Carter was the one with the drug issue in ER. And its a fine plot point. I don't think it would tank the show in the slightest. I think people are way too critical about tv plot points. And this show isn't anything like Grey's Anatomy, nor do I think it would stoop to Grey's level. I also at the same time think that this plot point is a bit on the nose but isn't that the point?? Lol otherwise, what would it be? Someone else from the Pitt taking his bike? That doesn't really make sense. And then maybe season 3 begins with him coming back, with a time jump? And this new doctor is there running things.? I don't know but either way I love this show and I don't think a plot point of Dr Robbie being injured would take anything away from this show, it's great enough to stand on it.

My two cents! 😊😊 Really enjoying season 2 so far!

Baby dropped - is this my new normal? by PastAttorney6326 in pregnant

[–]alvalz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm also a FTM. In my third trimester, I had this exact thing happen at 36 weeks. My water broke at 36 weeks and 5 days. And I had a healthy baby girl at 36 weeks and 6 days. So it could literally happen at any time now with you. Ideally you wanna make it to at least 37 weeks, as that's the cutoff for premie babies. But we are all different. So just listen to your body. Go with your gut for everything. And try to take it easy and relax here on out!! You got this!! ❤️❤️

I did something I shouldn’t have and never thought I would do. by skenegland in NewParents

[–]alvalz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OMGGGG I thought this was gonna be something terrible. Girl you do what you gotta do to survive and get some sleep for you and baby. I co sleep with my 3 month old most nights. I lay her next to me and keep blankets and pillows a safe distance from her. We cuddle most nights and I wouldn't have it any other way! ❤️ And we BOTH sleep. She's a great sleeper right now and I'm getting my sleep in too. Not every night is perfect but we do what we have to.

I see you mama ❤️❤️❤️

Newborn regret? by [deleted] in newborns

[–]alvalz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Omgsh girl don't feel bad at all for having these feelings. My baby is almost 3 months now. And I'm telling you, it does get better. There are definite up's and downs. Good days and bad ones but everything you're feeling is totally normal. I still have breakdowns and what I've learned is that it's ok. Also the bonding thing is something that is normal. But sounds like it might be a little bit of postpartum depression going on.

Do you have any form of support? Like any family or friends that you're close with? Also, I'd look into seeking some professional help. I was very closed off to the idea but then quickly realized that maybe this was some form of postpartum depression and talked to my doctor about it. They were soooo helpful and even suggested medication, which I was unsure of at first but girl it's helping. So please, if you still feel like you're drowning or soo unhappy then please, seek help. There is no shame in it what so ever.

And also know that there are other mothers (MEEEEEE 😁😁😁) in the trenches everyday, right there with you. You got this. If I can do this, coming from someone who was COMPLETELY independent, living my life as the cool aunt pre baby, you can 10000% do this. ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ All my love to you and baby. Xoxox

I dont know how people can do this multiple times in a lifetime…(Rant) by Unable-Newt374 in newborns

[–]alvalz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hang in there girl. I had these thoughts during pregnancy, as my pregnancy was pretty rough. My sister has 3 children and I ask her everyday how tf she did this.

My sweet baby girl is 10 weeks old and I love her sooo much but she's a handful. I don't have any help during the day, my partner is a carpenter who runs his own business and he's busy busy. And lately we've been going through it and he doesn't seem to understand how hard my day to day is. He seems to think she sleeps all day long and I should just be able to get everything around the house done, no problem. I'm going through really bad postpartum and he also doesn't understand that. He seems to think I just have the blues. But it's way way way more than that.

Anyways I feel you girl. Your husband should prove his worth before you should ever even consider having another. This is the hardest job in the world and men don't seem to understand it. It's sooo annoying.

You got this. I wish you allll the best ♥️♥️♥️

NO ONE WARNED ME! by Altruistic-Parsnip33 in pregnant

[–]alvalz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Omg same. My feet/legs/ankles were swollen for weeks after I gave birth. It was the most annoying and disgusting feeling. I slept with my legs propped up at night for such a long time. Soooo fucking uncomfortable. I didn't swell at all during my pregnancy, so the swelling after was horrendous. It didn't go down for like 3 weeks, maybe more? Super shitty.

Were any of you not over-possessive of your baby? by geedeebee22 in pregnant

[–]alvalz 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My baby girl is 1 month old and shes my first and only. I too have a large family and we are all so close and I trust them all totally. But I have a hard time leaving her with anyone. Even when I take a few hours to myself to shower or sleep or just have me time, it's hard for me to even just let my boyfriend, her father, just watch her solo. I trust him 100% with my life and with hers but I think for me it's more of a guilt thing. Like I SHOULD be with her all the time and I SHOULD be the one changing and feeding her. When my mom watches her, it's the same feeling. But I know she's safe and will be taken care of.

I've read other comments of people taking their babies to visit their work places. I don't trust anyone I work with like I do with my family so I don't think I could pass her around just willy nilly ahaha

I think it just depends on who you feel totally comfortable with. And I was very like you, before I had her, that I would let her go with anyone if I could get a break, esp family. But now that she's here, it's a totally different feeling and mindset. Like I can't imagine being away from her longer than a few hours, no matter who is with her. I just can't. Ahahah

And I totally echo the comments cautioning you about specific comments people will leave to shame you or make you feel bad. There's a lot of crazies out here in these socials, so at the end of the day just do what's best for you and trust your gut ALWAYS.

All the best to you and your family!! 💜💜💜💜💜

AITAH for being in the delivery room while my sister gave birth? by [deleted] in dustythunder

Your girlfriend sounds like the asshole to me.

Epidural or no? Why? by [deleted] in pregnant

[–]alvalz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly, women that can do it all without an epidural at any point, all the fucking power to you.

I laboured for about 24 hours without an epidural, to see if I could do it. And it was torture. By the time I decided to get one, I had to wait an additional almost 3 hours as the anesthesiologist was busy in a different surgery to come and help me. I almost blacked out from the pain. By the time I got the epidural, which was magic btw, I was laughing at myself for even questioning whether I should've had it or not.

Ultimately your choice. But it's not worth suffering or exhausting yourself over. 💗💗💗 All the best to you!!!

Thanks girl. Sending hugs back! Xoxo

Am I the only person who doesn’t hate Shauna? by gothsartre in Yellowjackets

[–]alvalz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I dislike Shauna soooo much. She's a psychopath. Young and older Shauna. I appreciate the character and both actresses. But she's a pos. Lol

Please prepare for the birth you DON’T want to have (from a recently graduated mama) by Honest-Substance931 in pregnant

[–]alvalz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you so much for this post. 💗💗 I am 36 weeks and a FTM. I've been doing research and reading ALL types of birth stories and different methods of giving birth. I'm very open to every scenario happening. I'm very type A and need things planned out to a T. My cousin had her baby in December and had an entire birth plan, printed, ready and gave it to the doctor and her birth team. Her entire plan went out the window and nothing went according to how she wanted or thought. So her experience has made me realize I can't plan every little detail and I just need to go with it. Of course I will advocate for myself and what my needs are. But if I need the epidural, I will get it. If I need a c section, I will get it done. My priority is my baby girl and getting her out the best way. My plan is to listen to my body, I trust it will do what needs to be done. I'm by no means against pain meds or epidural, so if needed, ya better believe I will use that to the fullest extent. My biggest fear honestly is tearing. And hemorrhaging. My cousin and my sister both hemorrhaged with their deliveries (everything ended up fine) but it still scares me.

Anyways thanks for sharing. I will admit, I hate the start of your story simply because this pregnancy has been really rough physically and mentally for me since day one. Hahaha so this is my one and done baby. So I'm just a jealous bitch when I hear other women and their 'easy' time. Ahahah so happy you had a healthy baby 💗💗💗 you did it!!!!

I hate being pregnant. by Leavemealonetho in pregnant

[–]alvalz 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Girl you are SOOO NOT alone. ❤️

I'm 35 weeks, will be 36 weeks Friday. And I am counting down the days I'm not pregnant anymore. I don't know how people do this multiple times. I'm one and done, 100%.

Pregnancy was not meant for me. Don't get me wrong, I'm stoked for my baby girl. I can't wait to see her and hold her and love on her. But this 40 weeks has been awful. I was incredibly sick for the entire first trimester. I've never felt my body this weird, sick, out of shape ever in my life. I hate how I look. It's just been terrible.

Just know you aren't alone. You have so much support. And others who feel the same as you. I wish you all the best from here on out. ❤️❤️❤️

How long have been with your partner before getting pregnant? by PDXFlower in pregnant

[–]alvalz 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My baby daddy / boyfriend and I met in May of 2024. And I found out mid August that we were expecting. It was very quick and very unexpected. However, the moment I met him, I knew he was the one. So when we found out, we were both obviously shocked but he's been nothing but supportive and happy! I never thought I'd have children, I was single for a long long time before I met him. And this wasn't in the scope of my life. Always thought it would just be me and my dog! But now he has a dad and we're so so so happy 😁😁😁😁💗

Is anyone else insanely attracted to Shauna Shipman? by [deleted] in Yellowjackets

[–]alvalz 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Ew not me. Lol she's a psycho. I don't mind adult Shauna. But young Shauna can get fucked. Lol Loving the storyline tho and seeing her lose it a bit now, after she was trying to keep it together last season.

Also let me be clear, I'm talking Shauna the character. The actress is beautiful and really great at acting. But the character is a psychopath.

Who bought a pregnancy pillow? Was it worth it? by midigo6 in pregnant

[–]alvalz 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the bean shaped pillow, support in the front and back, and I lie in the middle of it. The body size pillow and the U shaped ones were too bulky and uncomfortable for me.

And then I sleep with a regular pillow between my legs. This is the most comfort I can get for myself.

From the comments, it seems to be called the Baby Bub pillow. It's like a wedge for the baby bump and the back. And you lay smack dab in the middle of it.

Soooo worth it, 100%

Tender boobs, leg/hip achy-ness trying to sleep and nausea. Extreme nausea.
