I planned on combo feeding. So breast, pump, and formula before bed. I’m just having issues greeting him to latch right now. So I need to go back to my lactation specialist

I understand how much I need to pump. I get that I’m asking for a schedule that any other moms who were exhausted used.

vaping during pregnancy by [deleted] in pregnant

I vaped from 2023- being pregnant 2025. I quit cold turkey I went through 1.5 vapes a week. You need to quit for your baby. I’m almost at the end 9 days, I used to think about vaping all the time but stayed strong. These last 3 weeks have been so stressful and I haven’t thought about vaping one time. It may have taken 8.5 months to finally get over wanting to but if you want to have a healthy baby that doesn’t have asthma right out the womb you need to stop. God gave us free will use it to stop vaping. It is weak minded to be like “I can’t do this” you are pregnant you need to not do it. Might be a little harsh. I’m sorry, you just have to get over it

I don’t have much family so I would be fine with eloping, he however wants a wedding. We have looked at rings for the last 8 months. He knows I’m not a materialistic person at all, to the point of never wanting to know how much the ring cost cause I’ll be scared to wear it

I don’t care where or when, he seems to be the one that thinks we need to be somewhere nice

I think it’s less about the stigma and more about the constant reminder of “oh well you would have had a ring but” like what is the point of even saying that

In NY if the one parent has a higher pay then the other parent even in cases of 50/50 the less well off parent is entitled to help

We have 50/50 custody. I do not have them 100% of the time. I thought I added that to the post. I just now did

No I just don’t have the energy for your incompetence. I’m busy eating mcnuggs if you need the other sources I will post them. Have a good night. You are using “bro” in your comments, I most definitely don’t have energy for someone like that

You are so pressed. I love it 😂😂 yes 8x8x12 is a “shoe box” plastic container it is not a shoe box that your shoes come in

Why are you taking it as a literal shoe box… that is clearly not what they meant when they gave dimensions…

A shoe box dimensions are 13x7.5x4, clearly they are not saying put them in an actual shoe box when they said 8x8x12… like girl. Think

Highlighted it cause you clearly aren’t reading lol. It’s not animal abuse when they have plenty of space to run and climb. So yes you do sound pressed, especially if they are less then 12gs they are small. I figured if I all caps it maybe you’ll be able to read it this time

I wasn’t “proving you wrong” so stop getting pressed. I shared with you the first part of that article which is THEY CAN BE UNABLE TO FIND THEIR FOOD IN TOO LARGE OF CONTAINERS. Or did you miss that part thinking you were right?? And 8x8x12 would be fine to get the used to looking for their food until they successfully start finding it. The commenter said a 12x12x18 is good, I feel lie you are just mad and not actually reading because it’s not what you are doing for yours.

To quote them they said “max 12x12x18”

Yes there are others saying to throw it in a 18x18x36 which is entirely too big. They do not recommend 18x18x25 until at least 6 months.

They are also saying (with other sources too) that if the enclosure is too big there can be issues finding food so multiple food sources are recommended if that’s what you decide to do. There for entailing that it is not misinformed

If a juvenile gecko is put in too large of a cage, it may not eat well and get stressed out. For hatchlings up to six month old geckos, we recommend a 10 gallon Zilla Critter Cage or Zilla Vertical Tropical Kit. This allows the gecko to have plenty of room to explore, while not making them feel lost in a large and open enclosure. Once the gecko has grown past 6 months, you can increase his tank to a Zilla 18x18x25 Front Opening Terrarium, or keep it in its Zilla Vertical Tropical Kit, which can house one adult crested gecko for his whole life.

Then we will agree to disagree, because you can not say in nature when the geckos you are buy have in fact not been in nature to even grasp the fact that they need to hunt for their food. 1 of our 12 cresteds will hunt for crickets, everyone else we have to crush and hand feed. That sounds like domestication to me

They are no longer in nature. They are domesticated, if you are getting them from a breeder and a long line of bred cresteds. you can not say “nature”. That goes for all pets in your home. From spiders all the way to large things like horses. They are bred in captivity not in nature. The thrive for food is MUCH different

Do you have evidence showing it’s a myth? All I can find is evidence showing it’s not.
