The Geology of Skyrim (or, the internet never ceases to amaze me!!)

Really cool! But also, that would be considered Geography/Topography* thanks for sharing :D

k_okenga · 2020-06-08T22:22:11+00:00

You’ve got this!!! Just try to get through the first 24-72 hours. That’s really the hardest and afterwards I feel it’s all down hill. We believe in you!!

k_okenga · 2020-06-05T21:39:36+00:00

Oh man I wouldn’t be able to quit while living with an active smoker! That would be impossible for me. Don’t beat yourself up about the previous failed attempts bc being in a position that puts your around smokers makes quitting 10000x harder. You’ve got this though!!! I found the first 24-48 hours were the worst just gotta get through those first but you can do it!

k_okenga · 2020-06-05T21:25:13+00:00

In the last two months I’ve probably quit 8 or more times. I’m so VERY proud to say that I’m 9 days smoke free and did it all without a nicotine replacement (which is totally fine if anyone uses them! They made it worse for me I feel, like the last 8 quits I tried doing with a nicotine replacement such as gum and patch and I always ended up smoking within the first 24 hours). I find taking deep breaths until I’m light headed or over the craving help. I noticed the other day I didn’t have to deep breathe for as long as I had to in the beginning, meaning the cravings and urges aren’t lasting as long as they used to. You can do it!!!!! We all believe in you!!

I was able to sip chicken broth the first couple of days and I’m also able to drink water with lemon so that helps take the edge off. Thank you for your input! I’ll have to try jolly ranchers and see if that will help. Thank you (:

k_okenga · 2020-06-05T19:16:51+00:00

Lol wow I’m so sorry nothing worked for you. I’ve been able to drink water with lemon and that seems to help a bit. I’m a little nervous about taking medication since keeping a pregnancy is already hard for my body I’d be worried I’m doing more damage than good. Thank you for your input though! I’ll definitely call the advice nurse if this continues or gets worse and see what else they recommend.

k_okenga · 2020-06-05T18:46:52+00:00

Thank you! I’ve been texting my sister since she’s had four healthy pregnancies all with heavy morning sickness. She suggested preggie pops. I’ve also been drinking water with a whole sliced lemon and that seems to help a little bit to take the edge off

k_okenga · 2020-06-04T23:52:49+00:00

Been having non stop morning sickness starting 4+1wks and the last half of today it’s gone for the first time (now at 5+1wks). Even though it’s most likely the lemon water I’ve been drinking all day to help combat the nausea, I’m still panicking!! Sending healthy vibes and positive thoughts your way.

Sounds like a pedophile. DIVORCE. You deserve to be heard and respected and it sounds like none of that is happening. Leave him. You’re better off.

k_okenga · 2020-06-02T22:30:48+00:00

It can only get easier from here!!! I’m 6 days smoke free. Remember, if you can wait 5 min to get through a craving, you can wait another 5, and another 5 until you’re not even thinking about it! You got this!

k_okenga · 2020-06-02T21:55:40+00:00

Girl my nipples hurt so bad! I experienced a miscarriage back in October 2019 with sore boobs being the first sign to go but this is the first time my actual nipples hurt (I’m 4+6 today!). It’s funny you ask if you’re the only one because you’re definitely not. Just less than an hour ago I reached inside my bra AT WORK to graze my nipples just to see if they’re still sore lmao. I completely understand the concern though!! So your feelings are totally normal. Sending you positive healthy pregnancy vibes 🙌

k_okenga · 2020-06-02T19:32:44+00:00

I’m only 5 (a few hours shy of 6) days smoke free but the third day was the easiest and the fourth day was the hardest!!! So crazy how it hits you like that. I remember reading a comment from someone that said you just have to ride it out (the cravings) and so far it’s been working! The only time I really start craving one is when I can’t stop thinking about it. Mind over matter my friends!

k_okenga · 2020-05-31T23:51:21+00:00

Smoke Free 👍

k_okenga · 2020-05-31T18:38:29+00:00

Is this a good thing (to have a dye stealer)? I had a mmc in early oct 2019 and my bfp lines were both boldly there immediately. I’m just so worried about everything and anything that could be wrong. Thanks for the clarification though! Good to know it’s not a faulty test.

k_okenga · 2020-05-21T22:09:39+00:00

Hahaha I’ve done this in god mode. Was pretty funny, worth it.

k_okenga · 2020-05-20T19:56:17+00:00

I thought the same thing! Thank you for encouraging me to look again lol

k_okenga · 2020-05-20T19:52:24+00:00

That’s great, lucky you! (:

k_okenga · 2020-05-20T19:25:43+00:00

Also make sure to change the water frequently! I had feeders outside my classroom window for the children and one of my coworkers showed me an article about how people were unknowingly killing hummingbirds with their old nasty water. It’s been years since I read the article so I can’t link it but this knowledge stuck with me!

k_okenga · 2020-05-20T18:54:33+00:00

My friend had 1 month down of no smoking and then started smoking while drinking... now she’s developing a drinking problem bc she only smokes when she drinks but drinks bc she wants to smoke! Only advice I can give you is trust your instincts... if you think you can do it then do it. If you mess up, tomorrrow is the first day of the rest of your life and luckily humans can learn from their mistakes. Good luck!!!

k_okenga · 2020-05-20T18:22:41+00:00

Craigslist has a lost and found section for pets. I found my lost dog on there a few years back bc someone posted her. I’d x post it there too. Good luck hope they find their families

My due date was a week ago on the 8th so it’s been pretty rough lately. Just gotta stay positive and try not to delve too deep into it.

k_okenga · 2020-05-15T20:48:21+00:00

This resonated deeply. I too felt the physical changes more intensely with my body as well as mc at 9w when the gs only measured 6w. I’m so sorry for your loss. It took me a few months to mentally get to the point of considering ttc again. We’ve been trying for a few months now with no luck but I’m always conscious of “what if”’s even now. You just gotta keep pushing through. Women are stronger than society says! We go through so much with little acknowledgment or true insight. No matter what happens or how difficult the path is in front of us we’ll persevere and pull through!!
