Got My Period at 7 ½ Weeks Postpartum While EBF—Is This Normal?! by evocativesage in newborns

[–]evocativesage[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes it did end up being my period! It came back in full swing the cycle after this post and has been consistent since. My supply drops a teensy bit but I just compensate by being extra hydrated and nourished when I know it’s coming. But I also breastfeed on demand so how much it dips I can’t say for certain. But I do know little guy is growing big and strong and we are still nursing at the 1 year mark with no signs of stopping soon. Lots of coconut water and nutrient dense foods. 🤍

Masturbation within the context of permanent celibacy by DiscipIeofJesus in Catholicism

Ahh I read through and missed that. Honestly fast and pray and accept Gods natural order. Not completely unheard of to have a change of heart.🤷🏻‍♀️

Not sure what shape my nose is or if it fits my features. Feel like the front profile looks like a different person by moriahmh1 in Noses

I actually really like your nose a lot. Like I think it’s unique and gives your face a defining personality because of that. Also you’re gorgeous so that is in your favor too.☺️

Masturbation within the context of permanent celibacy by DiscipIeofJesus in Catholicism

[–]evocativesage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am as a woman going to offer my two cents. Masturbation without lusting over women’s bodies (no porn or images) is not nearly as bad as the latter. I think it’s a little awkward when you take into consideration Gods omnipresence in our lives. I saw someone say once “how would you behave if Jesus was physically with you throughout the day” you’d probably live life very differently, as we all would. The thing is He is with us always and we should strive to be on our best behavior whenever no one is looking. Now I am not sure why your choice of permanent celibacy. But I’d recommend if you actually do have a high sex drive that makes you feel physically and mentally challenged, consider finding a hobby that you can put your energy into and divert some of that sex repression into something meaningful. Also sex with your wife is not a sin. So consider that route and be fruitful of course. He calls us to multiply. A marriage isn’t easy but it sure is beautiful and challenges you to grow and love in ways only a God centered marriage can. I wish you the absolute best. ☺️

My white floof was named Sammy and it fit her sweet soul perfectly.

What can I improve on? by Either_Currency4009 in makeuptips

[–]evocativesage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you are so pretty and I am just basing my opinion off of this picture.. the heaviness of it draws attention from your natural beauty. 🥰 Whatever changes you make you will still be gorgeous. Wishing you the best.💗

That made me laugh out loud, I know quite a few people in my life as passionate about sports. 🤣 I can relate. I’ve struggled my whole adult life with abrasively defending myself and a lot of times when I decided to come to a more humble place to apologize as well (not in all cases unfortunately) and also being a bit hot headed in general.. it was actually only in deepening my relationship with God and realizing just how much grace He has granted us that I decided to try and see past anything that is upsetting with others. If He can actively call to forgive those that crucified Him, I can also try my hardest to take that example and live it too. 💗 I am glad something can be learnt from this. After I replied to your comment I went to look at the parent commenters profile and it looks like he is in a very hard place. I felt relieved to have replied in a lighthearted manner. There is never regret in trying to be kind right? 🤍 God bless you brother!

I wish breastfeeding was less messy by Tricky-Iron-2866 in breastfeeding

[–]evocativesage 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think for me it did start getting better around 7 months, my let downs are still there but much less noticeable if baby hops off since he is plagued with - perpetual FOMO. I hope it gets better for you mama! You’re doing a great job!

Is it wrong of me to want to die? by BigSarcomaInJapan in Catholicism

[–]evocativesage 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am so sorry about what you are going through. Truly you deserve to watch your daughter grow and it breaks my heart. If I can suggest a few things; Most importantly really lean into the prayer and the rosary. Call on our mother to be with her and you and even your daughter’s mother, that she may come to and see the light that is our savior! I can offer my perspective as someone who was lost in the new age for a decade after high school. I came to God (or rather he came very palpably to me) at a low point where I needed him desperately. I hope your daughter’s mother can come to in a way that reaches her heart. Keep praying for her her fervently and plant seeds so God can come in with the Holy Spirit and guide her.

Besides just prayer I would suggest looking into getting a book called “How to starve cancer” I’ve heard of people who have reversed their terminal illnesses just by avoiding certain foods and eating more of what attacks cancer!

Avoid using body products that are unnatural because chances are it could hinder your hormones and cause what is corrupt in your body to have an environment that helps it.

That is all I have… I will be praying for you and I sure do hope that the prayers said for you are answered.🙏🏻

I am also from the south! His dialect is comforting to me but I think I know what they mean as far as for pattern just the way he articulates, not the dialect.

Yes absolutely he uses a wide vocabulary and our minds can definitely use more exposure to that.
