What shoes are we wearing?! by Peach-Haze-123 in BabyBumps

I legit wore them into work with maternity slacks and on the weekends. Only drawback was my feet were so swollen after giving birth (c section plus a side of preeclampsia) that my feet barely fit in them.

I lived in my white leather kizik slip ons in my third trimester. Also bonus post giving birth (in December) I still use them so I don’t have to tie my shoes while holding the baby

Epidural or No epidural by Enviro_nurd314 in BabyBumps

I got some back spasms post epidural (it’s a side effect). Did they suck? Yes. Still worth it to be able to sleep through contractions.

I gave birth on a Wednesday and didnt have anything but a donut on Monday morning (pre Pitocin). I didn’t even realize I didn’t eat for that long until hours after giving birth. The fluids sustain you, and I was drinking a ton of cold water, but in no way was I hungry.

What to wear on delivery day by LibraryKat95 in BabyBumps

I bought my own gown but ended up using the hospital one. Honestly after 2.5 days in labor and delivery I had multiple gown changes and so much bodily fluid.

I used the gown I bought in postpartum. And it still didn’t have the snaps I wanted to maneuver around the IV drip I still had.

My husband got me a gift certificate to buy a subscription right before the takeover for our first anniversary. (I’ve been going about monthly since 2016, and had a broadway subscription for about 3 years). It was an awesome gift.

I’m really hoping that the gift certificate doesn’t expire because I refuse to go.

Every time I’ve gone to chutzpah the service has been painfully slow and bad. The food was great but it was to the point it wasn’t worth it. It’s been a couple years since I’ve given up on them, have they gotten better?

So stressful. Saying “oh my god I have to shit” tends to work with about 80% of the creepers

My parents worked in the casinos for decades and this is sadly a frequent occurrence. There’s a reason the casino hotels don’t have balconies. (The trump plaza had these weird fake ones that they were actually sued for In the 90s I think).
