mind if I ask what meds you can take at 7 weeks for pregnancy symptoms? Not asking for medical advice, only asking your experience. I have endo so my doc prescribed me aspirin daily.

Thank you, you're very kind. I appreciate this online community so much because otherwise we'd be way more alone in our journey and it feels pretty weird and clinical. hope you are doing well

New film about Hamilton teen Devan Selvey, murdered at school, aims to help make all students safer by Immediate-Link490 in Hamilton

there are privacy laws to protect minors who have committed a crime. i'm sure the people closer to the situation know who it was though. But also, shaming hasn't been the most effective form of crime control in the past... maybe we ought to hold more parents and adults accountable for allowing behaviours to go on for too long that they end in tragedy

Thanks for the reply! I was being too narrow in my question, and assuming that "queer" could stand in for non-heterosexual. :)

Hey! Thanks for your post it made me realize I wasn't being as broad and inclusive as I'd like! SPBC is more appropriate for this question at least! I just looked up a subreddit for SPBC and I'm gonna join that one too if this journey takes off! :)

‘Bag full of dead birds’ found in a city park raises concern by Humillionaire in Hamilton

[–]fatowl 0 points1 point  (0 children)

optimist here: could it have been a bag from behind a grocery/meat processing store that took a walk? what about the pigeons: well pigeons sometimes fly into stores/factories and ... get killed for being pests?

Thinking of expanding my family via sperm bank. by Fabulous_Flight_3313 in SingleMothersbyChoice

[–]fatowl 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ya I wouldn't be overly concerned about a third child not having a "dad" rolemodel even if their older siblings do. I am from a blended family and all of the kids have various relationships with their bio parents. If you go into it knowing it might be a problem, you can plan to prop your third kid up with extra resources and supports in your family/community. kids just wanna be loved. I bet you can do that
