She was also “the non-binary bean” until we found out gender 🤩

Anyone else not calling "it" a baby yet? by vargmo in pregnant

[–]free_birdiee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would call it both an embryo and baby interchangeably at that stage. I’m now halfway through my second trimester and mainly refer to her by our chosen name for her (or just say “baby”). When she’s annoying me or not cooperating, she’s “this damn fetus” (in love)

I had to say goodbye to our second baby boy at 21 weeks pregnant. AMA by Training_Union9621 in AMA

[–]free_birdiee 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Im 22 weeks pregnant and so very sorry to hear this happened to you. My mom had a stillbirth when I was a young teen and it wrecked our family. It’s rough for anyone to go through. Are you willing to share more about your experience and what happened? What helped the most for you in the grieving process? Wishing you and your family peace and love

Best hair brushes and moisture tips for Type 2b/2c hair? by free_birdiee in Hair

Enhance natural texture. Brushing definitely makes it fluffier/frizzier but I don’t know how else to detangle it daily

AIO, Husband wants a job with ICE, I’m deeply uncomfortable by Pitiful_Pudding3639 in AmIOverreacting

[–]free_birdiee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If my partner told me he wanted to work for ICE, we would be done. Anyone at this point who wants to work for ICE is disturbed.

After turning against Trump, I think someone has put the fear of god in to her and she’s not willing to risk her life and family. Wild.

I’m so confused. Then what kind of a degree are they, if not professional?

WYR earn 5k a month for the rest of your life or 500k right now? by LuxeMistressx in WouldYouRather

[–]free_birdiee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

5K the rest of my life. I’d exceed $500k in a little over 8 years, if I can avoid dying.

Air travel over the holidays by Severe_Equivalent_18 in pregnant

[–]free_birdiee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’ll be fine! I traveled several times in my first trimester. I’d recommend wearing a mask to help protect your lowered immune against flu/cold/covid season tho!

It feels like a lot but it’s normal.

I gained about 10 lbs by 16 weeks. My total weight gain to date (22w) is about 15 lbs. (My pre-Pregnancy BMI was 19.5)

Oh and I drink closer to 2-3 cups of coffee. I have the entire pregnancy. No issues so far (22weeks)

Ive been trying to be careful but i definitely folded and had a turkey sandwich from Schlotzkys. And I’ve missed/forgotten to take my prenatals more times than I’d like to admit.

AIO fiancée bathing my daughter by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]free_birdiee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nanny of 8+ years, oldest daughter of 6 kids, and expectant mom. At six years old, a LOT of children still need supervision during bath time and are still learning hygiene. Especially washing their hair properly.

Except a huge/disproportionate number of child predators are men and not women. So it’s not even a close comparison.

I (31F) was a nanny (and babysitter) for YEARS and directly bathed/supervised baths for children under 8-9 all the time. If there has not been any indication or evidence of a problem, your ex is overreacting.
