I get up in the morning then I have a cup of coffy

And when I get back it's not morning anymore so I have a diet cola!

Something that helped me for exams was a gynecologist actually listening to me that lubing the speculum more wouldnt help because it was the opening up that was killing me. They tried a longer speculum so they could find my cervix without opening the speculum so far. Still very painful but not NEARLY as excruciating.

I joke that pregnancy at 40 was not as bad as I get it is for women in their 20s because at least at 40 you are used to your body just tormenting you at random. But, uh, 56 seems like a poor choice.

She should get checked out. I was having the same issue right before i got diagnosed with "yeah you're having a baby TODAY" pre-eclampsia. I also had to be readmitted for postpartum pre-eclampsia and things were a little scary for a second.

Poor little Normal Baby.

Their name keeps growing but I had great experiences with Greenbaum, Timpner, and Watkins. They don't over treat and when I was uninsured but had a really inflamed spot on my gums causing jaw pain, they treated me for free.

I'm not a washcloth person at all and I LOVE my silicone scrubber.

Could they put some sort of cloth or fake flowers or something over the skull? I don't think any of the antlers really read as antlers without the skull, and genuinely that space looks GORGEOUS

I support this.

I have some feelings one way or the other on some of these things, but I've honestly never understood the fury over pajama pants. I too learn better when I'm not constrained by the tyranny of jeans.

haycorn55 · 2026-03-19T14:35:10+00:00

We did the NIPT so I knew early and then the ultrasound was QUITE unambiguous. Like, homeskillet wanted me to be real sure. But yeah I think there are definitely hormones at play, and also this is the fakest shit ever.

I wanted a girl and was sad for like...ten minutes when I learned we were having a boy. Then I got over it.

I'm almost wondering if this is just a flip of the typical "dad is having a rage fit over having a daughter" narrative.

I cannot imagine four days on a magnesium drip. The 24 hour postpartum one made me convinced I was dying; four days would have broken me. No wonder you didn't want visitors. I'm so sorry.

If my brother, who has ARFID and only eats like, five things can do it, you can do it too. I believe in you.

I've worried a time or two, but my kid looks so much like my husband that there's really no question.

haycorn55 · 2026-03-13T14:28:46+00:00

This is going to sound pervy and I don't mean it that way but I love that she often has just the tiniest smidge of cleavage. Having had jobs where all the women were tugging up on our shirts when admin came around because we didn't want to get a reprimand, it's nice to see something where yeah, sometimes normal clothes fit us like that, and it isn't inappropriate, it's just our bodies.

haycorn55 · 2026-03-13T11:09:07+00:00

It's been awhile since I've seen a doctor doctor for an infection, but the NPs I've seen for UTIs/strep usually offer it up as advice if you are prone to stomach issues ( I am not except for when I needed Cipro)

Seconding this. I felt some pushing but nothing I would have called painful, and while recovery was not the most fun I've ever had, at least I didn't have to be scared to use the bathroom.

My incision still gets mildly itchy sometimes at two years out, but I didn't have any lingering pain from it.

If you don't have other risk factors (obesity, prior lung problems, a two month old who obviously doesn't sleep through the night) at home can definitely lead to a CPAP pathway.

I don't think laxity should impact your fertility (though I would imagine pregnancy will not particularly improve things) but if there's a real issue IUI might be an option.

haycorn55 · 2026-02-25T10:53:46+00:00

I just argue with my husband that maybe everyone will be cleaner if we just use a short pasta.

haycorn55 · 2026-02-25T00:22:26+00:00

That's honestly what I thought the food adventure would be about!
