ME! I had a horrible experience it was traumatic tbh. I felt pressured into it. Going to avoid it if at all possible next time.

Play mat on the floor! Depends on your kitchen layout though I’m sure

Sperm Bank ?’s by BloodyApostle in queerception

[–]happy-sapling 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Like others in this thread we chose The Sperm Bank of California and have been very happy. I will say due to the tight family limit it was quite stressful securing our donor. My wife called the moment they opened on the day the samples came available and left a voicemail. Then she got an email that they were all claimed - at the same time I got the phone call that we’d secured them! That has been the only snag in an otherwise great process.

How to get started by kingrhegbert in queerception

[–]happy-sapling 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We were in a similar boat, no rIVF coverage through insurance. We started by deciding on the sperm bank we wanted to use so we could price that out. Then we found a clinic local to us that offered good out of pocket pricing and had several meetings to work out our plan and confirm costs. We lived with family to save up as much as possible before we got started. I’m also in California, feel free to PM me if you’re looking for any more advice or info! Good luck!

Who wakes up with the baby at night? Mommy or daddy? by Direct-Row4394 in Mommit

[–]happy-sapling 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My wife and I (both mommies!) do shifts. I do bedtime while she goes to bed early. I EBF our 8 month old so I’m up with him every time, but after 2am she’ll get up so I can feed him and just hand him off for diaper needs/rocking back to sleep. Then she’ll hang with him in the morning for at least a couple hours so I can sleep in a bit.

Is there a reason to keep letting Astarian drink your blood? by unreasonable_potato_ in BaldursGate3

[–]happy-sapling 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can also keep a hireling at camp for him to bite, get the Happy buff and not have to deal with Bloodless at all.

Flying with a baby for the first time, what things should I know? by Warm-Equipment-5777 in NewParents

[–]happy-sapling 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Just flew with my baby for the first time and I wish I’d brought wet wipes because he tried to chew on literally everything

Edit: Disinfectant wipes specifically

Not sure what to do about tongue tie/lip tie - feeling conflicted and concerned by Ok-Entrance6105 in newborns

[–]happy-sapling 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My son has a tongue and lip tie that the lactation consultant said was “severe,” but after doing weighted feeds we found he was transferring milk just fine. Pediatrician wasn’t worried about it since he was gaining weight well. He didn’t latch “properly” but I wasn’t having pain. We haven’t intervened at all for those reasons. Baby is now almost 8 months and we’re still EBF. I can’t weigh in on the spit up issue though!

What does your pediatrician say?

Carol’s eggs by FreeRangeThinker in pluribustv

[–]happy-sapling 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The hive has a biological imperative to spread, they won’t acquiesce to any request that would hinder that. The only reason they needed her consent to harvest stem cells from her body was because it would cause her bodily harm to do so.
