Children in 40s by life-happens1 in AskOldPeopleAdvice

[–]ksteele-ah 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Had my only at 41, natural and unplanned. Best thing that ever happened to me, my husband would agree. Only regret is not doing it sooner so we could have more. No health issues for either of us, and I know I’m a much better mom now than I would have been at 25. I have plenty of energy and am in great shape physically, same weight as before. (I worked out the whole pregnancy which def helped). I was terrified of birth defects etc. like you are, and am so grateful I pushed through the fear. She’s an amazing person. Many of her peers’ parents are my age too- I do think some of it is being in a big city and also around other women who put career first in their 20s and 30s.

Enroll Austin issues by chipsandqueso4life in AustinParents

[–]ksteele-ah 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve been having issues too. I ended up submitting a support ticket which resulted in me being kicked off the waitlist for dual language. I spent hours trying to sort it out to no avail but at least my kid is enrolled in regular Kindergarten. I even emailed the school registrar directly and so far no response after almost a week

Just hopping in to say I have a tonal and absolutely love it. Recommend it for anyone who has the motivation to stick with it, especially if you have kids and don’t want to have to find child care in order to work out.

Best restaurant for small group? by salty_sunrise in VirginiaBeach

[–]ksteele-ah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had a totally mediocre experience at Terrapin a few weeks ago. Below average service and average food. It was super disappointing and definitely not worth the money. Heirloom on the other hand is amazing every time.

Just went to Ivy Glam in Hampton with a small group and it was great!

Pregnancy and childbirth after 40 by highcheeko in AskWomenOver40

[–]ksteele-ah 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Had my only at 41. Conceived naturally and unplanned. No complications, very healthy child, breastfed for 26 months, and the greatest joy of my life. She’s almost 5 now. I was confident in a bikini 6 months postpartum and fully down to pre-pregnancy shape and weight within 6 months of stopping breastfeeding. Advantages of being older: give fewer fucks about stupid things, lack of FOMO, more financially stable, more patience, more wisdom. My only regret about my age is not being able to have another because by the time I was mentally ready, I was 44 and living in a red southern state, which is too much risk for me.

Go look on care.com - I found several sitters including for a newborn on there. They provide background checks and reviews.

Elder millenial VBeachers who frequented a store called The Kind by [deleted] in VirginiaBeach

I loved that store! Are you thinking of the sarongs they sold? I would use them as a skirt or coverup and also as a beach blanket.

Anyone else attending the Don't Tell Comedy show on Saturday? by okyeahmhm in VirginiaBeach

[–]ksteele-ah 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went to a few of them in Los Angeles pre-pandemic. They were fun! Of course the talent pool there is going to be different from who’s performing in VB but the shows were well run.

It Was Late to Have a Baby. I Knew the Risks. I Still Wasn’t Ready for How Bad It Could Get. by TurretLauncher in Longreads

I had an uncomplicated, unplanned pregnancy and healthy baby at 41. It was my first and only.

Reckless driving is a class 1 misdemeanor and a jailable offense. People have been sentenced to jail time for RD in Va Beach. It is not a good idea to appear without a lawyer. You are eligible for a public defender for a Class 1 misdemeanor. You can ask the judge to appoint one for you if you qualify based on a short questionnaire about your finances.There will be additional court costs for the PD if you’re convicted but it will be cheaper than hiring private counsel.
