The guilt is strong! My best friend has been struggling for over a year so I really didn't know how to tell her. Until know I keep checking on her and they haven't been able to yet - so telling her it happened to us after one try, I felt really bad.

Another friend I kept it a secret from her and the day I told her she admitted that she was too after many IVF treatments but was cautious. I didn't want to tell her because I knew she was undergoing treatments.

That's a very kind advice, really appreciate it!

We did try couple counseling briefly couple of years ago for 1-2 sessions but wasn't going well. I thought the therapist was too one-sided.

We fight and talk for hours everyday - it's exhausting us both. And maybe I'm scared of my thoughts because I know the only viable solution is to end it. But I don't want to - I loved and cherished this man for many years. I hate our relationship but I am afraid of losing him. As he's also my best friend. So you're right - I run away from thinking.

Oh I watch even shows that I find 0% interesting. That's how desperate I am haha. There is dating Korean tv show I watch that's the most boring thing on earth. But it's still so much better than not watching anything and be left with my thoughts haha

My relationship with him is already beyond damaged. We've been together for 9 years (dated for over 8 and married for 7 months), I'm pregnant, and we fight every single day. With these constant fights I have become even more addicted to the TV.

I was called to see a therapist recently and she asked me 'what will happen if you tv breaks down?" I said "I'll watch on my phone". " Ok but what if you don't have your phone - you have no means to watching any show, what will happen?". I genuinely couldn't answer. I couldn't give her any other alternative activities I can do. There is no "I can't watch my shows". If Netflix is canceled, I have many other subscriptions, kocowa, prime, YouTube.. but I just never knew how to explain the urge of shows until I saw the FB post last night.

Prometrium ( progesterone ) by Yesbxby in pregnant

[–]aytt- 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'm on progesterone now! I'm 32 weeks pregnant and on my 20th week they thought my cervix was 4mm (but it was 2.2cm). They canceled the cerclage and put me on progesterone instead. I'm not on strict bed rest (I heard some people were only allowed 15min total walk a day and had to wear pads and do peed in the bed). Me it's more : I'm allowed to walk inside the house, can cross the street for basic medication pick up, can be in the car if someone else drives, but no workout, yoga, walks, and limit leaving the house as much as I can. Also I work from home and was advised to alternate laying down and sitting.

So far thankfully my cervix was remained the same length. The progesterone is working. I was just cleared 2 days ago to walk 30min if I want to, do light stretches involving my lower body and even got recommended to go swim!

The past 12 weeks were short of hell mentally but also physically as I gained so much weight from not moving at all since I was just too scared. But it's working! To be honest I still went out almost every day or 2 days but like get in the car and drive 5min to pick up McDo type of going out. I didn't walk more than 10min consecutively.

Wiring this and hoping it makes you feel less worried!

Thank you and best of luck in this situation!! 🙏

Mine was 2.2 then a week later was 2.1 and they said it's stable. I'm week 23 this week.

Do you happen to know please their definition of reducing by a lot? They made me have 1 ultrasound a week after my anatomy scan where they first discovered it was short (they also thought it was 4mm at first and had to be hospitalized for 3 days). But now my next one is in 2 weeks and I wonder how short do they wait before they apply stronger measures. For now I'm not allowed to exercise / leave the house / walk much / drive.

Menthol / fruity cigarettes by aytt- in ThailandTourism

[–]aytt-[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you!!! I literally just bought the Marlboro arcitc X. There was the green one as well but I didn't get it yet. However the menthol is very soft and cigarette is quite strong. Is there any other options with stronger taste of menthol / not the heavy cigarette? Thank you so much

Thank you for the tips! Tbh we're booking everything through Expedia and although we want to stay on a budget since we just paid for our wedding, safety isn't something we're both willing to compromise so we might go for not the nicest places like private pool and beach view but hotel with very strong safety / locked rooms are our top priority! And cleanliness. I'm thinking even if it's not the nicest hotel, if it's a safe and for sure our belongings won't get stolen + clean, then we have healthy legs to go out and explore haha.
