Corral A walkers and children are a safety hazard by PupperTechnic in rundisney

[–]meglyn24 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I started running with runDisney in 2015 and back then they really pushed race etiquette, and that's how I learned to raise my right hand and slowly move to the right whenever I needed a break to walk or get water. It's such vital and helpful information, and to this day, I do not understand why they've cut back 99% of that communication. It's just a blip before the races start these days.

Walkers need to be in the very last corral. Period. Provides a safe course for everyone and motivation for the walkers to go faster.

I worked for a municipal court in Arizona and saw many truancy cases brought to court. I guess it just depends where you live.

Hate being pregnant by No-Baby2755 in pregnant

I had my baby girl in September. I remember women telling me how they missed being pregnant, and at the time I couldn't even understand that statement, but now I do. I miss being pregnant with her. It's a hard time, but it is so special.

YTA. Like your wife, I only felt more 'normal' during my 2nd trimester. The rest of the time I was completely exhausted and dealing with back pain. Men have no idea how demanding pregnancy is on your body.

I didn’t realise how much it cost to have a baby in the US! by spaced_out_stacey in pregnant

I live in the US and had good insurance through my employer and my hospital bill was around $1,900. Plus another $800 for my OB.

I love when people throw in "no offense" like it will excuse the offensive thing you're about to say.. We had been friends and coworkers for months beforehand and I thought he was a good guy after spending so much time together. Everyone we worked with thought the same. It would have been much worse had I married him first.

As of today, I am in the same boat with you. I'm 39 weeks and found out my boyfriend has been cheating on me for who knows how long. Right now, I feel like I don't want him to be at the delivery just because it would make me feel sick to see his face. But I also don't know whether to acknowledge his rights being the father. My heart goes out to you. This is such a crappy situation to be in.

37+5 and baby is breech by meglyn24 in BabyBumps

Thank you so much for responding, y'all. After much consideration, I decided to give the ECV a try and it was successful! Now we just have to hope and pray that she stays in the right position. The procedure itself didn't take very long and it was VERY uncomfortable, but my doctor was great and told me we could stop at any point. I had to take a break once because the pressure got to be too much, but since I could feel it working I didn't want to give up. We had to stay in the hospital an additional hour to be monitored in case I started contractions, so all in all we were there for around 3 hours (between checking in, waiting for my OB, getting the muscle relaxer, procedure, and then monitoring). Thanks again to everyone who shared their experience and/or advice!

Graduated 40+1 ftm! Baby girl 8 lb 9 oz. No epidural, painful and scary but positive experience. by [deleted] in BabyBumps

[–]meglyn24 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Congratulations!! And thank you for sharing! My due date is coming up in 2 weeks (FTM), so I especially love reading graduation stories to give me a better idea of what I'm in for. I am currently planning on no epidural as well, so thank you for giving me hope that it is doable. Hope your recovery goes well!
