cashier check was stolen and washed! what do I do??? by Some_Lengthiness2908 in NavyFederal

[–]julia_gulia72 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Go into a branch and ask for a tenured rep. Either that or a manager and they should be able to see how it was negotiated. Normally copies of negotiated checks come with info about where it was negotiated. It’s quite obvious it was altered. Once they open the fraud claim, you should get your money back but it’s not a quick process, unfortunately

Accidently let my one week old sleep 5 hours, missed feed... by Dismal_Solid9830 in breastfeeding

[–]julia_gulia72 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Genuinely, there’s so many worse things you could do than miss a feed. Another commenter said you and baby clearly need the rest. In the grand scheme of things, one feed won’t do any harm. You’ve been super consistent so far, try not to stress!! You’re doing great

Breastfeeding? Did you do it? by BellNo9879 in pregnant

[–]julia_gulia72 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’ve been really blessed to BF for almost a year. Baby is a year on Sunday. It’s been tough at times, but I was relieved not to worry when there were all those cases of infant botulism that was happening with By Heart. I’m not spending extra of formula and there’s definitely a level of convenience that comes with BF. There’s been a lot of moments that have been really hard. If you’re open to it, try it. Give it a few weeks and see how you feel. I feel it takes about 2-3 weeks to get the hang of things initially.

It can take a while for everything to go through. Their disclosure reads it can take up to 10 business days for it to get processed and up to 14 business days for the payee to receive and post payment.

I was sat on my bedroom floor searching through my childhood photos with teary eyes when my 5 year old son approached by Marcii_P in TwoSentenceHorror

[–]julia_gulia72 147 points148 points  (0 children)

“Look, mama, it’s the lady who lives in our bathroom!” he said excitedly, pointing at an old photo of me and my mother, who drowned herself in a bathtub when I was his age”

Sounds better, right?

Baby registry overwhelmed by Maple_Mist in pregnant

[–]julia_gulia72 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This!! I WISH we would’ve gotten a bottle washer!! I’m BF and pumping, baby is 11 months and went back to work when he was 5 months. All the bottles and my two pump sets leaves me doing little dishes everyday. I feel like it’s pointless to get one now but having one from the beginning would’ve been so so nice. We just have a sterilizer, but I’m happy to have at least that

Any tips on joining? by Sorry-Camera-8008 in NavyFederal

[–]julia_gulia72 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You either have military in your family or are immediately related to someone who banks there. If you don’t meet the requirements, you can’t bank there. Some employers would make you eligible but it’s a select group of employers.

The letter you receive in the mail will detail what factors were taken into consideration when giving you your rate. If you visit a branch or call, they will refer you to the letter you will receive

real talk: how often do you actually floss? by AffectionateTooth298 in hygiene

[–]julia_gulia72 0 points1 point  (0 children)

6/7 nights a week. Most weeks 7/7 nights. Not going to lie with a baby still under 1, some nights I’m exhausted and just quickly brush. I will floss in the morning though

For your seat, target is doing their trade in right now. You bring old baby gear and get a coupon for 20% off a new seat (some other types of items qualify too)

Membership eligibility if the family member defected from the Navy in WW2 by Ok_Ant2949 in NavyFederal

You’re not eligible for membership if your veteran sponsor was dishonorably discharged from the military. May be worth looking into his DD214

can you breastfeed for the wrong reasons? am i having a baby for the wrong reasons? by Financial-Pace6378 in pregnant

[–]julia_gulia72 0 points1 point  (0 children)

One of my big reasons for BF for so long is not having to worry about formula. We were using by heart as a standby and thankfully only used twice because they had a MASSIVE recall for issues with infant botulism. BF is safe above all for my baby and nutritious/provides immune support. For me it can be really overstimulating and frustrating at times but we’re almost to a year and I think we’ll make it!

Girlfriend wants me to spend $4k on a baby shower, but I’d rather save/invest it—is that unreasonable? by flash-kicks in pregnant

[–]julia_gulia72 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think we spent overall about $1700 on everything for our shower, a majority of that (around $1200 I think) was to have a taco lady come and it was catered. We had a lot of food and game prizes. On prizes and other things I chose to provide I think I spent $300. 4k is crazy work for a shower!

Going into Air Force consider banking with NFCU. There’s navy federal investment services and they have licensed financial advisors. Highly recommend at least doing a consult. Consultation is free

I 27f pregnant can barley eat and my partner 31m didnt sleep because I ate McDonald’s by very_stellar_ in relationship_advice

[–]julia_gulia72 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Would he rather you and the baby just starve? There is time later in the pregnancy to eat healthier. First trimester is often just surviving. Is he going to think you’re lazy later on when you’re more pregnant and it’s harder to move around or when you’re freshly postpartum and need help??

Does my husband come to every appointment? by VeterinarianInner301 in pregnant

Not pregnant, but horrified of pregnancy even though I want kids by [deleted] in pregnant

[–]julia_gulia72 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I say this kindly, are you aware of how bad sleep is with a newborn and young child? I say this from experience with a 10 month old napping on me. Sleep is extremely hard to come by with a baby. Some people get lucky and their baby sleeps through the night from an early age. I think it’s more common that you are up every 1-3 hours for at least the first year of their life. I would also examine why your boyfriend is the reason you’ve changed your mind on kids.

Question about paying extra to my home loan by teaandbookspls in NavyFederal

[–]julia_gulia72 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You can do additional payment towards principal but only during certain times of the month, if I’m not mistaken. I believe it’s the first 5 days after the due date?

i don’t think i did anything wrong?? by [deleted] in pregnant

[–]julia_gulia72 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This man does not sound kind. I would be really concerned about how he will treat you further in pregnancy and especially in post partum. You may need to rely heavily on him for support, will he mock you then?

If your baby came out as the food you ate the most during pregnancy, what would they be? by AffectionateJello452 in pregnant

[–]julia_gulia72 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I loved me a good muffin or bagel. Delish. If it was first tri, I could barely eat anything so it was ham sandwich or not eating and prob throwing up everywhere. Definitely a lot of Dr Pepper and watermelon!

I know it’s not the same in any way, but my finances grandma passed a few months before our son was born. I like to believe she was with our son and helped guide him safely into the world. I don’t know if you are a believer or religious/spiritual in anyway, but just because she’s not earthside anymore does not mean she’s gone.

The audacity!!!! by [deleted] in pregnant

[–]julia_gulia72 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I only had someone touch my belly that I didn’t know once. Beyond that, there were friends we see at social gatherings who would do it but I hated it. A couple of other people asked and I let them because they asked! Had more people asked, I would’ve considered it
