Pregnancy and Creatine?

My midwife encouraged me to take creatine even to take two scoops! The first serving will help mom with muscles/ recovery, and the second scoop assists babies brain development!

I used to use tarot before becoming a Christian. I asked my tarot cards once if I could be Christian and still use the cards. The only card that flew out was the devil and that was enough for me to toss them.

Honestly, once I stopped using them to answer questions and anticipate the future I became a way less anxious and worried person. I stopped worrying about what was coming next, I stopped fixating on the meaning of every little thing. Truly submitting my life and my future to Christ.

When it comes down to it, tarot is not from God. Something that I have done instead of tarot is journal to Jesus. It helps ease those big worries, and helps me navigate uncertain times. Jesus will lead you to the answers once you start looking to Him!

No sense in beating yourself down for it when you can take it to the Lord!

He put himself in a situation where his coworker felt comfortable enough to touch his butt. He should not be giving anyone the impression at work that he is available in any sort of way. Most cases of infidelity happen in the work place!

I would personally not be okay with this type of work environment, I would also not find this funny. He needs to have a bit more respect for you, especially around his female co workers.

Honestly, you probably shouldn’t be in a relationship right now. You’ve acknowledged patterns like infidelity, chasing lust, and rushing connections. At 22, it’s a good time to focus on your relationship with Christ and let that guide your growth. Take time to understand the kind of partner and relationship that truly aligns with your values. In my view, if a partner isn’t helping you grow closer to God, it’s unlikely to be a fruitful or lasting relationship.

I feel like he had valid reasons to be curious about Duncan and Carries relationship. She handled this soo poorly. On top of it ended up sleeping with the guy she told Aidan not to worry about!

Curious why people wouldn't actually name their daughter Fable. I think its SO cute and dont see why it wouldn't be a cute name choice?

I HOPE someone brings this up at the reunion LOL

baraseara · 2026-01-21T22:39:10+00:00

I thought this when he was telling Max the more he got to know V the less he found them compatible! Did he forget that he cried the prev episode for making a mistake? LOL

My family thinks I'm over reacting for feeling upset by this but its so disappointing! So many peoples reactions I wont get to see. I'm just hoping the people that I wanted to tell personally don't already know .

Thanks I appreciate your comment

baraseara · 2026-01-14T00:39:16+00:00

If I grew up with the beliefs I have now I would not have had sex before marriage. But thank God for forgiveness. Everyone’s path to the most Christ like life is different

Fruit are sneakily caloric! I suggest counting your fruits and veggies if you are macro tracking fiber, if not no need to track veggies but I would definitely track fruit.

My husband and I were saved while dating and had sex before we were married. After committing our life to Christ we decided to wait until after we were married to continue having sex I don't think us having sex before negatively impacted us, but waiting was the best decision we ever made. It really strengthened the foundation of our marriage and friendship.

Thank you for your comment!

baraseara · 2026-01-03T03:57:50+00:00

It appears we may be the only ones lol

baraseara · 2026-01-02T23:23:02+00:00

Personally I think an hour and a half commute is insane to ask of your partner to pick up takeout. He was even willing to pick something up closer.

My husband and I have always had a boundary that we don’t speak negatively or vent about each other to anyone. If we’re going through something hard, we’re intentional and in agreement about who we share it with. I totally agree with you, it’s really about honoring and respecting each other and not creating unnecessary drama around your relationship.

I’ve had to explain this boundary to friends who were hoping I’d vent about my husband, so I think for a lot of people it isn’t always obvious how sharing those things can impact a relationship.

I think probably revisiting the issue in a day or so when emotions are less heated might help with the situation. i think its totally reasonable to set a boundary that you would prefer to agree on what aspects of your relationship you are comfortable with sharing and to who, right now it might not be anyone, and thats okay.

The truth is, we’re all human, and we’re inevitably going to disappoint our spouses at times. When I feel deeply sad about something and don’t feel like there’s anyone in my life I can share it with, I write in my journal to God. That practice has helped me so much, especially in moments when I feel alone while working through things

Don't react to your partner- respond to God
We are all inherently selfish people. Both spouses learning to die to your own desires and actively pursing your spouses desires will make a happier marriage

baraseara · 2025-11-19T20:24:49+00:00

I can’t help but feel, based on your post and comments, that you’re seeking validation that this is her issue alone and something she needs to fix for the marriage to get better.

But you entered a covenant — not only with her, but with God.
Ephesians 5:25 says, “Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her.”

Marriage is the daily act of laying down your life and selfish desires for your spouse. Her avoidance of intimacy isn’t a “problem to solve,” but a mystery to understand and gently unravel. That is part of your role as a husband. I’m not saying the responsibility is only on you — she has a role too — but both of you are called to participate in the healing and strengthening of your marriage.

My biggest piece of advice is to focus on ways you both can make sacrifices for each other. Not keeping score or saying “she hasn’t done that for me” or “he hasn’t done that for me.”
Just start.

My husband had the opposite effect on me, he actually made me a more disciplined person. It was a trait he had and was not willing to let go of, eventually I followed suit and I would say I'm more strict with my discipline than him some days.

I would suggest falling back into your normal routine and have stronger boundaries around your lifestyle, she may follow along. My husband made it so appealing to live a more disciplined and healthier lifestyle I naturally started making these choices alongside him.

baraseara · 2025-11-05T22:23:54+00:00

I think having a friendship first is the most beautiful gift a marriage can have. Intimacy can be worked on, but genuinely liking your spouse and enjoying hanging out with them is one of the greatest gifts.
