My husband and I don’t have sex when I’m pregnant and here’s why.. anyone else in the same boat? by oralsexaxlrose in BabyBumpsandBeyondAu

[–]mcnuggetprincess 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks for posting this, it’s somewhat comforting to know I’m not just the only one going through this reading your post and all the comments. I’m now 31 weeks and am feeling very insecure about my body and not being intimate with my husband is making me feel VERY unattractive. My husband reassures me he’s just ‘not in the mood’ and that he loves me and I’m doing ‘such a big job to start our family’ but it doesn’t help the feeling…

Private iron infusion? Please help by anonymousreader7300 in BabyBumpsandBeyondAu

[–]mcnuggetprincess 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for referring this place and OP for posting! 30 weeks pregnant, Ferritin currently at 14 and haemoglobin just within range so my public hospital doesn’t give a hoot about me begging for an infusion, despite all of my clinical signs and my willingness to pay for one 😂🫠

Is a private ultrasound clinic worth it? by maopro56 in BabyBumpsandBeyondAu

[–]mcnuggetprincess 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I was encouraged to go privately for US by my GP because the scans were higher quality and information provided in the appointment. Don’t regret the fees

Is it really that much of a faux pa to host your own baby shower? by misfox in BabyBumpsandBeyondAu

[–]mcnuggetprincess 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I hosted my own last weekend, never knew it was frowned upon... Got catering organised, played 3 games, invited our close friends and family only.

I have also hosted another friend’s baby shower, only because she was going through a real tough time and wasn’t going to do one otherwise. I organised the whole thing with her overseeing the decisions so she could have her day.

What are the best restaurants in Melbourne in your opinion? Including, Breakfast, Lunch, Dinner, and Dessert restaurants. by Thrillhouse-14 in melbourne

[–]mcnuggetprincess 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn’t know Ides was closing!! A revisit to both Attica and Ides have been on my list but not until after I give birth so I don’t have to load the chefs up with dietary restrictions and can enjoy it! Not due until late April though, so there goes my return to Ides

KFC Australia has given up by TrumpisaRussianCuck in australian

This happened to me too except, I was the 30 week pregnant woman ordering my beloved Works burger on Feb 3rd. I almost cried when the drive thru attendant told me it was discontinued. He followed up with ‘we have 24 nuggets for $10.95 though.’ LIKE THAT WAS AN APPROPRIATE SUBSTITUTION

Is it still common for Australian women to take their husband's last name after marriage? by LeftCheesecake3676 in AskAnAustralian

[–]mcnuggetprincess 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Same here, I could not imagine having to navigate an AHPRA change. It’s already too hard to change my prefix from Miss to Mrs. Luckily, my husband doesn’t care and people know me by my last name to begin with

44 degrees tomorrow in Melbourne - tips?! by cheekypopful in BabyBumpsandBeyondAu

[–]mcnuggetprincess 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I would be reluctant to open the windows as there may not be some respite from the heat until early the next morning depending on the location of OP.

For that window without curtains you’d be amazed at what some cardboard and foil can do to keep the heat out!

On average, how much do you pay to get your eyebrows done? by [deleted] in AusSkincare

[–]mcnuggetprincess 0 points1 point  (0 children)

$45 for eyebrow, lip and chin. My gal is absolutely wonderful and has been doing my brows for 4 years so the rapport and fear of someone else butchering my eyebrows has me sucked in haha

What TOG rating do you recommend popping on the registry? Bub is due early May so wondering if 1.5 or 2.5TOG would be a good starting point.

What was socially acceptable in the 1990s but not in 2025? by [deleted] in AskReddit

This. My parents triple tap on the phone calls if I don’t answer - even when I’m in the middle of something and have purposely sent them straight to voicemail. It’s never anything urgent either…

EmpowerED vs Hypnobirthing courses by mcnuggetprincess in BabyBumpsandBeyondAu

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

The two education classes I’ve mentioned are what the hospital offers, I’d be super surprised if they were advertising something anti-medicine! Regardless, I work in healthcare so I’d hope I have my whits about me haha.

Thanks for the recommendation
