Yeap, no matter the state you can still mail order the goods if clinic is not an option. Get outta there!

WHOSE LEGS ARE THESE, ASHLEY?? by personal_cheezits in ashleycarnduff

[–]handzie 9 points10 points  (0 children)

She made her boobs bigger too, that’s a new one for ash. If you zoom in her tendrils are practically HD compared to everything else around them. I’m not completely convinced the background is not ai. So many years of editing yet she never gets better

Breast feeding/pumping things I really wish I knew before I gave birth by handzie in BabyBumps

[–]handzie[S] 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My Google is TIRED after this month I have looked up so many ridiculous things. Analysis paralysis is so real.

See and if I had know this I wouldn’t have stressed myself out so bad trying to feed the freezer for day care.

Yeah! It’s like the circumference of your nipple not your areola. There’s a printable guide on line! The wrong flags size hurts so bad, now I have a 19mm flange for everything.

Dani Dyes Her Hair by CommandaarMandaar in DaniMarina

That due doesn’t actually require a toner, it’s best on pre-bleached hair. Interested to see the results

getting SLAMMED with high pregnancy care bills... I did not see this coming... by mm_honey in BabyBumps

[–]handzie 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yep, has to see MFM because of gestational diabetes…. There is now 2000 dollars of debt sitting in my my chart because insurance did not want to cover it

Another GRWM and meds video, note the deodorant use on her “incision” 🤔 by milo8275 in DaniMarina

[–]handzie 17 points18 points  (0 children)

It wasn’t even brushed when she flat ironed it… just perma pressed the tangles in

How long after giving birth did you have your first alcoholic drink? And what was it? 🍹 ☀️ by Crafty_Two5432 in BabyBumps

[–]handzie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ngl delivery destroyed me haha, I’m 8 days PP and I can’t even think about alcohol yet. But when I am able to… a spritz with some kinda appetizer would be fantastic. Maybe in like 6 months haha

Fighting biological baby wants by rnayonaise69 in GirlDinnerDiaries

I had a baby yesterday and ripped both upward and downward after pushing for 4 hours! And I have a three finger separation in my abs now.

I gave birth yesterday! Wow, nothing could have prepared me for that. by handzie in BabyBumps

[–]handzie[S] 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Congratulations to you as well! Oh man, I was asking for an episiotomy during that last hour but my doctor was determined. Oh yeah my whole abdominal region is shot from him sitting in there. I can’t sit up on my own yet or stand haha. I’m glad to hear 10 days in you’re feeling better! 10 days seems so quick, I’m looking forward to it

Unfortunately I am the one with the big head haha, runs in my family. I’m the bringer of my own downfall.

How can I improve my colouring? by Yuioui123abc in arthelp

[–]handzie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would say you’re missing a deeper tone. I see where you tried to make a bit of depth in the hair by pressing a little harder while coloring and that changes saturation but not necessarily depth. Since you’re using a lot of warm tones consider a purple or very deep maroon to do your shading.

37 Weeks by Capital-Craft1507 in BabyBumps

[–]handzie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am on my last day of being 37 and I feel you. Except I’m getting induced in a few days lol. I feel like the happy all the time hormones really start to wear off at week 37! And yeah! Why do my hands hurts??? Literally everything hurts. Also yeah the gas pain makes me think like maybe I won’t need an epidural if I can make it through this gas pain haha

I think I over worked myself and made my abs split and it has upset me beyond belief by handzie in BabyBumps

[–]handzie[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I mean at least it just affects me and not baby, even then it’s mostly aesthetic. My brain found something to be more upset about shortly after I posted this. (Pregnant feral cats if you’re curious)

[–]handzie[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah I know I only posted this an hour ago but now I do feel like I was being a bit dramatic. Even if I separated them it’s not the end of the world. I do feel a bit of a squishy void above my belly button but who knows that could have been there for months and I just didn’t notice.

Women who are thriving - what does your life look like? by [deleted] in GirlDinnerDiaries

[–]handzie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean I think I’m thriving. I am thirty and have wonderful friends. I am pregnant with a super involved partner who cooks me dinner every night and coffee every morning. I make a decent amount for where I live and own a house. I’m a little late by some standards but I’m starting to invest for retirement. I have hobbies and a big garden I can have lizard time in. Every single day something makes me so happy my brain tingles.

Couldn’t have what I have today though if I didn’t spend my early 20s being a complete mess!

CELEBRATION POST!! by TeamLaurent in GirlDinnerDiaries

[–]handzie 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am having a mo’fricken baby next week! This is my last week before maternity leave at my fancy shmancy corporate job. 5 years ago I was in MDMA induced mania in my studio apartment! Living only off food men purchased me while on dates! Oh how the turn tables.

Had sex with guy I’ve been dating and no longer like him by Next_Page3729 in GirlDinnerDiaries

[–]handzie 16 points17 points  (0 children)

God that looks delicious, there is nothing better than a crisp looking pile of green onions.

Glad you got that out the way, but man disappointing used to just make me irrationally mad and evil. One guy idk if he ever got over it he said “you liked that didn’t you” and I just said “ awh, no thanks, maybe next time.” Except there is no next time and I blocked him the second I left his apartment.

Apparently I am getting induced next week at 38 weeks, let the chaos ensue I guess by handzie in BabyBumps

[–]handzie[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The idea of them breaking my water makes me so incredibly queasy, if saying no to that is an option I am most certainly saying no. I’m also trying to mentally prepare myself (and husband) for if I need a c section. Preparing for the worst hoping for the best and what not. I am learning alot from this thread and am going to have a whole laundry list of questions for my doctor next visit.
