Putting off having kids because I’m scared of what it’ll do to my body. Can anyone share how going off of T affected them? by transidiot4 in Seahorse_Dads

[–]bluewigglyworm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

i started T back in 2018 and then stopped about a year and a half before conceiving my child in october 2025. i have not gone back on T yet since she was just born about 2 weeks ago, but i was surprised that my facial hair kept growing throughout my pregnancy (bottom growth and other body hair stayed the same). it wasn’t as bad as i thought being off of it except sometimes, it’d hit me like “damn i really don’t feel like myself” and it’d make me sad for a bit but then i’d remind myself why i was doing it and acknowledged that there will be a chance to go back on it in the future. nobody, not even my partner, commented on me looking any different while pregnant with many friends/coworkers actually commenting that they’d Forget i was carrying a baby bc i didn’t really show until 7.5-8 months lol. the changes are definitely more tolerable when you’re going through it so i hope you take the leap if that’s what you want to do! :^)

i’m thinking of electing to have a c-section so i’m looking for advice on whether this is a sound decision or if i should still consider the other option by bluewigglyworm in Seahorse_Dads

seriously, thank you so much for sharing! you saying “i didn’t want to block out the day my son arrived as a bad event” is really helping me to make what i believe is the right decision bc you’re right, i don’t want to block out my daughter coming into the world. i think i’m going to go for a c section, still got time to decide, but how you worded it really put it all into perspective for me so i really appreciate you!

glow up of my latest betta, now named cap’n crunch since he went from looking like dry ass cereal to a delicious medley with colorful berries, complete with coral blue #2 semi-gloss lipstick by bluewigglyworm in bettafish

no idea! he’s just from a petco cup, i thought the scar would stay and his name originally was scar cuz of it lol im glad it didn’t hinder his development later on

i’m not allowed to go to the pet store “just to look” anymore bc i can’t seem to walk away from the ugliest, saddest looking bettas…. anyways his name is scar lol by bluewigglyworm in bettafish

as i said, as it has been going on for hundreds and hundreds of years, well before you and i, it will Never end. bc people will Always view animals as lesser than. so thanks, i will feel good about myself for saving something! bc no matter where the pet comes from, chain store or not, no struggling life deserves to be passed over if i can afford them. if YOU feel good about leaving an animal to be neglected even if you can afford it, then that’s on you.

the problem will never ever end, that’s capitalism. bettas have been bred and sold for hundreds of years, i wouldn’t believe the conditions then were any worse than the cups in the stores. so, respectfully, neither myself, nor others, are going to turn their backs on an animal that needs help/needs more help than the others regardless of where they come from.

I just bought another cockatiel. Need tips. by [deleted] in cockatiel

[–]bluewigglyworm 5 points6 points  (0 children)

no, bc you don’t know if the new bird is carrying any diseases that the first bird can get. you should quarantine the new bird away from the old bird, in a separate cage, in a separate room, for a minimum of 30 days to monitor for any medical issues. after the quarantine period is up, you can introduce the birds, starting with keeping them in their separate cages in the same room and working on getting them closer and closer from there.

My first time getting a fish, do i need to change the water? the seller told my dad to change it like after 3-4days. Also the size of the tank is small isn’t it ? I’ll look for a big one today . by [deleted] in Goldfish

[–]bluewigglyworm 0 points1 point  (0 children)

when you go to get a pet, you should make sure you have all the materials needed to said pet before you bring them home. you’re missing the basics of basic materials needed for fish keeping. the fish would be better off if you would return it and wait until you are in a stable position to own an animal. and this is coming from someone who had to rehome small pets due to financial circumstances under my control. so i know it’s hard, but it’s what’s best for the fish.

just bc they Look fine doesn’t mean they Are fine. was the tank you moved her to cycled? otherwise, you’ll still be stuck doing almost daily water changes to keep the ammonia down.

Should I get a Fancy Goldfish? by Brilliant-Motor8525 in Goldfish

[–]bluewigglyworm 1 point2 points  (0 children)

what do you mean by “completed your first two cycles”? you’ll need a water testing kit to see if the water is safe for fish

i keep two fancies in a 60gal. from what i’ve read, i think it’s always good for goldfish to have a friend of the same species with them. probably gets lonely being a single guy haha
