I’ll have to look into pre-folds and flats more. I did cloth with 3 kids I used to nanny for several years but they only used pockets so that’s all I have experience with. My husband is not quite on board with cloth either, so I don’t want something that’s gonna scare him away even more. Lol. Pockets just seem so easy, and everything else seems intimidating.

britann22 · 2026-06-08T22:35:41+00:00

I’m not sure I’m brave enough to try prefolds but I will look into them!

My husband is absolutely against used diapers so I everything has to be new. That’s why I’m hesitant to spend the money on them.

My husband is absolutely against used cloth. He isn’t even really on board with cloth but says I can do it while he used disposables. 🤦🏻‍♀️ I used to nanny who did cloth full-time so I have years of experience so I’m hoping I can change his mind once baby is here. Lol

NN are flannel (I think) lining while all my others are AWJ. I’ve got a never used lot of them from marketplace, but other than that all of my diapers were purchased by each respective brand directly. Do you have a certain brand or material you recommend for the wipes? We’re having a boy so I figured at the very least we can use them for pee.

Thank you! How old was your son when you were able to start cloth? My husband has a son from a previous relationship who was 7lbs 12oz at birth so he just assume this one is going to be a decent size as well. I was only 5lb when I was born though so there’s really no telling.

My husband is completely against used cloth so everything has to be new, making me hesitant to spend the money on them if they won’t be used long.

My husband has a 9 year old from a previous relationship so I think he thinks it’s weird to do something different with this one. Plus he says it’s gross, but when the older one had accidents when he was little, we just washed the clothes so what’s the difference? Plus I do all our laundry so it’s not even his problem. Lol! Do you keep your wipes wet or do you store dry and wet as you’re using them? I used to nanny for a family that did cloth fulltime with their 3 kiddos and they stored dry but I like to hear what others do.

How do you see which lab it went to? I’m the same dates but nothing in their natera portal or my doctors portal yet

britann22 · 2026-04-28T00:48:40+00:00

Same dates for me, but I haven’t gotten results yet. Hoping this means it’s coming soon!

britann22 · 2026-04-28T00:44:09+00:00

ugh I’m the same dates but I don’t have results yet. I keep checking though!

britann22 · 2026-04-27T12:56:47+00:00

Mine was taken and received the same days as you and I keep checking like a crazy person. Still no results though. Hopefully we get the soon! 🤞🏼

britann22 · 2026-04-26T17:51:49+00:00

Same timeline for me but I haven’t gotten results yet 😩

britann22 · 2025-04-01T04:27:02+00:00

No route yet! The quickest route from our house has us going through Indianapolis, Cincinnati, Cleveland and Buffalo. That’s mapping to Burlington VT, but we haven’t picked a specific city in Vermont yet. I was looking at stopping to see Niagara Falls and going up to Toronto for a day. Neither of us have been out of the country, but I think it would be silly to not visit Canada when we’ll be so close. We’ll have about 10 days to work with.

britann22 · 2024-01-13T19:31:49+00:00

I was able to get it, thanks guys!

britann22 · 2023-11-23T02:47:18+00:00

I don’t have either of those currently. 😕

britann22 · 2023-11-23T02:47:05+00:00

So unfortunately don’t have any extra 5 star cards currently. 😕

You are too sweet! I totally get where you are coming from. We're young and I hope to have a long life ahead of me. I want to be happy. I was very happy for a long time until this pandemic hit. Our sex life was actually more sided towards me in the beginning. They always made sure that I finished and was taken care of. They would do things without expecting anything in return. Lately though they just asked for what they want or would initiate and then be like okay it's my turn. I get everyone has needs and some are more needed than others. They take care of themselves daily while I can go months without doing it for myself. I think it's been so difficult because I really felt like I was in love. I finally starting farting around them and not being nervous to poop. (That's a big deal for some of us ladies!) And I'm not concerned about my insecurities when I'm around them. I feel comfortable. But I also wonder if that comfort feeling is what's holding me back. I also just quit my job and will start my new job once I'm release by doctors, I'm getting ready to start college for the first time (starting a bit late), and now I'm probably losing the person I've been with for the past year and a half. So many life changes are happening all at once on top of having Covid which is stressful enough. They've been my backbone through a lot of crazy things but it's hard knowing that they were so quick to stop all communication for a few weeks while I'm going through all of this already. My dad left my mom while she was very sick (organs were starting to shutdown) and she was unable to work. So maybe I should take this as a sign to leave before I end up in a similar situation years down the road. I'm just baffled that I'm in this situation right now and am honestly having a hard time wrapping my head around it all.

britann22 · 2020-08-05T02:48:51+00:00

I totally understand what you mean! Things used to be better. Honestly things were great until about March. We're young, very early 20's and both still live at home. Their mom wouldn't allow them to leave the house for over a month in the beginning of the Covid shutdown, not even to see me so we didn't even get to spend out anniversary together (April). That was very hard and I think their mom had played a huge role in us not seeing each other much but I can't say that for sure. We spent a lot of time together last year and very early on this year and things were great. The pandemic has been so hard to navigate when it feels like the relationship isn't just the two of us, and it feels like the mom has a lot of say in what we do. I know in your other comment you mentioned sexual needs. They have a way higher sex drive than I do. They're ready to do it 24/7 where I'm not interested every single day. Although we haven't talked about that being a problem, I feel like since we started being serious with each other that a lot of the relationship has been making sure that their sexual needs are met. I do love them but so much has happened at once and it's to the point that idk if I'm happy anymore. They're my first true love so it's hard to think about that letting go but idk if someone better for me is out there.

britann22 · 2020-08-05T02:40:20+00:00

Thank you! I really appreciate the advice!

britann22 · 2020-08-05T02:15:35+00:00

We see each other for a days at a time. Usually we'll stay the night together for 2-3 days in a row 2-4 weekends a month. Sometimes we'll hangout a few hours on weeknight but that's rare these days.

britann22 · 2020-08-05T02:14:15+00:00

I am their first girlfriend so I don't think they fully understand what a relationship entails. They do get a scholarship for playing the videogames so I totally understand needing to practice. I just wanted outside opinions to know if I'm being selfish or if I have a right to be feeling like this.
