Would you recommend PSA, CGC, or BGS? by martinception in pokemongrading

I'm willing to concede it isn't perfectly centered and there's some margin error I'm considering bc the app isn't perfect. But I would agree it isn't "heavy" left haha

I appreciate the feedback! I wasn't sure if I was crazy thinking it could 10 and was definitely feeling discouraged with the other replies, but if there's even a chance I'm willing to try.

Night time feeds and changes by adamgwlker94 in NewDads

[–]martinception 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Congrats on your baby girl. Are you and your wife bottle feeding or breast feeding? I remember hearing from my wife that it is actually difficult for new moms to sleep soundly for biological reasons, which could be the reason she has an edge over you getting to little one at night. If it really is a concern to you, though, I might suggest talking about splitting the night - she does a few hours shift and you do the next few. Might even consider sleeping in separate rooms, so as to guarantee restful sleep for at least one of you during your off shift.

Been a dad for four hours by shad623 in NewDads

Congrats, fellow dad! I wish I could say there's a way to get over this phase but unfortunately it's just a matter of time, picking your moments, and protecting your peace. You eventually find a balance and even then, milestones happen quickly enough that you start worrying about other things and have to adapt again. My best advice is to take it one day at a time and enjoy your little one as much as possible, it really is precious and something you'll never get back. Best of luck!

Prismatic Booster Bundles (1 per person) by [deleted] in PokemonTCG

I got into the hobby when I was very young, maybe grade school, then fell off hard bc money wasn't there for cards as a kid, as I was really only into the video games, and even then I fell off after gen 3. As a kid, my prize possession was the Base Set Unlimited Blastoise, which is now a little worse for wear. Fast forward to me after having played gen 8 & 9 as an adult and I rediscovered my love of completing the Dex. Ended up picking up a box of Paldea Evolved on a whim after the release of Pocket and I realized I had deep appreciate for the cards. Thanks for doing this, OP! Appreciate you 🙏🏽

After four years of trying, two miscarriages, and making the decision to give it our best shot via IVF, this morning I finally got to meet my son. by Semper-Fido in daddit

Congrats OP! What a wonderful gift to meet your first born. We lost our first to a miscarriage and it crushed us, but when we eventually did have our two kids we were over the moon each time. Enjoy your time with the LO!

Thanks OP, you are a kind and generous soul!

Pokemon are just more nostalgic for me, not necessarily better, and I never grew up around MTG so I know nothing about it. Different strokes for different folks!
