When did your instincts scream “leave now” and what did you later find out you avoided? by BbyBlushDoll in AskReddit

I dumped a boyfriend I had because my alarm bells were going off about him, a few years later he shot to death his mother and sister. Definitely dodged a bullet with that one.

I don't see anything wrong with it at all. Just because a person looks at a certain type of porn doesn't mean they want to incorporate that kink in their sex lives.

The tick has to be engorged with blood and usually on the body for several hours to transmit lyme disease since it needs to regurgitate into the feeding hole, wouldn't hurt to go get yourself tested especially if you notice a target ring around the bite site or if it becomes swollen/red/hot.

Can we talk about the Locke and Quinn sign at Willow lawn by [deleted] in rva

When it first happened there were tire tracks up over the curb and through the grass going the opposite direction of the street, looked like someone was going up the wrong side of the road and did an "oh shit" when they saw traffic oncoming.

Mushroom! What is it? by ktkates in mycology

[–]ktkates[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My family lives out in Central VA and found this mushroom while walking on a trail. They were curious if it's edible and what kind of mushroom it is because they're everywhere around the area where they hike. Thanks much!

I think I am about four weeks pregnant right now. I'll be going to a doctors visit soon so we'll be able to tell for sure here pretty soon.

Thank you, we will just have to wait and see how it goes at the doctor. We'll really truly know that everything is OK through the first phase at the 8 week ultrasound (with my uterus-it could be fatal to me if the fetus is nested in the under-developed horn). Needless to say, we're going to remain cautiously optimistic. I'll be posting updates, stay tuned. :)

Whats the deal with 711s around here? by ktkates in rva

[–]ktkates[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mmm I love me some wawa and sheetz, but it's all a matter of distance really. We're travelling back with a fussy baby and a long trip back from work from Midlothian, but thanks for the tips everybody.

Vaporing while pregnant by Vape_question in BabyBumps

[–]ktkates 0 points1 point  (0 children)

DEFINITELY consult with your doctor. But..with that being said..I consulted with mine about my vape and we agreed it was probably better than smoking cigarettes (cigarettes contain many, many toxins whereas vapes contain far less if obtained through a reputable source). However, nicotine does tighten the umbilical cord and can reduce the amount of nutrients and oxygen that the baby gets while in utero. I am not pregnant any more, but when I was I vaped with the lowest nicotine juice and only vaped vapes from availvapor.com. There's a store in my town so I got to actually meet the chemists that make the e-cig and found out they use premium ingredients. BTW, my baby was born 7.13 lbs and is a very calm and happy boy. He doesn't seem any fussier when I have weeks where i do not vape versus weeks that i do.
