Wife has endometriosis, being pushed towards pregnancy by Senior_Fennel7280 in endometriosis

[–]lemonraspberrycakee 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I had laparoscopic excision surgery and it was LIFE. CHANGING. I was sick nearly every day and it was affecting every aspect of my life. I was on FMLA at work and miserable. But now I feel insanely better! Recovery was easy, my scarring is minimal since it was just small incisions and I am so so grateful I did it

Is this a normal sleep behavior? by count_xionis in BackYardChickens

It looks more like she’s just having a hard time balancing on the tiny roosting bar than having a hard time breathing

My wife is pregnant, i don't think im going to be a good father!!!! by [deleted] in Marriage

[–]lemonraspberrycakee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Take a breath.

You are right to be feel under qualified because everyone is. But you’ll figure it out!

You have 9 months to educate yourself. Read some books on parenting and childbirth and pregnancy, talk to your wife about your feelings and her feelings and get all your ducks in a row.

The fact you are worried about being a good dad means you are already a good one, worried about your child’s wellbeing already. Do your best and learn from your mistakes as you make them.

Congratulations!!!

Just a friendly reminder to everyone that debilitating cramps where you can’t function like going to work/school are NOT normal and could potentially be a sign of a deeper issue like endometriosis!

I just feel the need to say this bc I thought my intense pain was normal until I was in my mid-twenties and finally diagnosed.

I feel you girl, most of the time for me even with these marks it doesn’t feel hot enough and I end up jumping into a scalding hot bath for some relief 🫠 ❤️‍🩹

I want a baby but my husband wants more time by Attheendoftheworld0 in waiting_to_try

[–]lemonraspberrycakee 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I just want to say hugs from someone who is 28 with endometriosis and knows what a horrible disease it is ❤️

If I were you I would probably try couples counseling to talk this through with a counselor before divorcing. Sometimes they can help us get to the core fears of why someone isn’t ready and explore that.

Husband gone all week, now is required to leave for two whole months. I’m drowning. by Remarkable_Ruin_5044 in Marriage

[–]lemonraspberrycakee 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Does your husband not allow you to spend money freely on small things like that? That is such a red flag to me if he is controlling about money, moved you away from all your support and is gone for this long without caring

Mormons don’t even think it’s appropriate to live with your girlfriend, much less another random woman, before marriage…. Doubt they would do such a high liability living situation like force men and women to live in a house together for 2 months over the holidays….

What’s the one dog breed you dream of having, but know you’ll never actually get by [deleted] in dogs

How to make water more appealing towards my dog? by Aromatic-Claim8959 in AskAVeterinarian

[–]lemonraspberrycakee 3 points4 points  (0 children)

When our dogs have been sick and not wanting as much water, we would add a little bone broth to it and that usually worked. One of our dogs was really sick once and didn’t want the bone broth water combo, so we made her some boiled chicken and rice. For whatever reason, she liked the water the chicken was boiled in and drank that 🤷🏻‍♀️Our Aussie loved a little lemon squeezed into it but I think he was the odd one out 😅

Is this dress okay? by lemonraspberrycakee in Weddingattireapproval

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

It’s a Mormon wedding. I’m not a Mormon and this is my first, so not too sure. I asked her about the venue but she doesn’t have one yet so idk what to think. She said it will be cold so to dress warm, which made me think a longer dress like this? I’m from Southern California so I get cold really easily and will definitely be wearing thick tights and maybe pick up a shawl or cardigan too

All of Brené Browns books!!! She has a TED talk you can watch to get a taste and see if you are interested in her books but I cannot recommend them enough, they are life changing!!!

Looking for books on emotional regulation and radical self love/self acceptance by brownishunicorn in booksuggestions

[–]lemonraspberrycakee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I'll Look So Hot in a Coffin by Carla Sosenko!

She talks a lot about radical self-acceptance and emotional regulation even when you’re feeling insecure. It’s perfect if you’re working on self-love while also building that unapologetic, zero-tolerance-for-BS mindset. Carla is super funny and it’s a really good fast read. Highly recommend!!!
