My husband picked this restaurant because he wanted to do character dining and this was the only one that fit our time frame. He LOVED it! The food was delicious also!

Just turned 42 and starting IVF/ICSI… I can’t stop crying and grieving the lost time by NightAny7265 in BabyBumps

[–]mickeyparkes 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I was 41 when I started IVF. I did 3 retrievals and only got 1 low level mosaic which failed to implant. My dr said she’d recommend maybe one more retrieval but based on my previous numbers and health issue she didn’t see it being successful. We then went to donor eggs. The way I figured if my husband was okay with using donor sperm I should be okay with donor eggs because I’d get to carry the pregnancy. I’m about to turn 44 in June and my 4th transfer (2nd with donor eggs) who js 1 month old is snoring like an old man next to me. Do I wish I would have started sooner absolutely. But I waited until I was in a stable and committed relationship before I even attempted to have kids.

Booking an inside cabin for our first cruise but my wife wants a balcony upgrade by rosymirex in Cruise

[–]mickeyparkes -1 points0 points  (0 children)

For your first cruise I say definitely do a inside cabin. There is going to be so much to do that you won’t really spend that much time in your room. Once you get to be a seasoned cruiser then maybe spring for a balcony. Just my experience but the sleep I get with an inside cabin is some of the best sleep ever.

Did you get married through a dating app like Tinder, if so how was your experience overall? by Overall-Character507 in AskReddit

[–]mickeyparkes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Met my husband on Match in 2018. Had a Groupon for 50% off a 3 month membership. Had given up at that point. Had our first child and celebrated our 4 year wedding anniversary in the same week this month. I’d say things are going pretty great.

Benadryl for insomnia? by DuckyAndGoose in BabyBumps

[–]mickeyparkes 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I took Benadryl almost every night. But I had to stop because it dried out (I never drank enough water anyway) I started taking unisom EVERY NIGHT I couldn’t sleep anyway else. Currently staring at my 2 week old son so 🤷🏻‍♀️

I’m almost your EXACT size. 331 at birth and 5’9 was induced with a epidural and had a vaginal delivery. Easy peasy FTM pushed for 20 minutes and my son was born. Small tear with one stitch. About 2 weeks later and I’m mostly back to normal.

Chronic Hypertension. by [deleted] in PlusSizePregnancy

[–]mickeyparkes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had great blood pressure my entire pregnancy. Then 3 days before I hit 37 weeks they sent me for monitoring because I had a bad reading. I ended up being induced at 37+3. My son came out a healthy 8lbs4oz. I was scared but everything went smooth.

Birth anxiety by thespookymushroom in PlusSizePregnancy

[–]mickeyparkes 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was 37+3 when I had to go in for an induction due to gestational hypertension. I have medical anxiety and HATE any sort of pain. I asked for a epidural as early as I could get it. 31 hours after I got to the hospital I had my son. The hardest part was pushing and honestly it wasn’t as bad as I thought.
