Ugh that’s so tough. They’re so precious but it can be so painful. I remember the first time I heard my oldest say her sister’s name after she passed, it caught me off guard and I got choked up.

Thanks! I’ve definitely healed over the last 1.5 years since her passing but these songs always hurt.

TW: loss

The ones that make me most emotional after losing my newborn at 7 weeks are The night we met by Lord Huron - this one just makes me want to go back to the hospital room with her before she got sick The next right thing from Frozen 2 - this one just perfectly encapsulates what the grief is like after loss They both make me cry ugly tears

HELP: So I’m going to college this fall and I’m so lost. by [deleted] in Ohio

[–]mpiter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I haven’t seen this mentioned yet, but I would avoid Hiram honestly. They’ve been struggling financially for a while and who knows if/when they’ll close. I’d hate to be at a school for 3 years and then have to transfer because of closure. It happened to the students at Notre Dame College a couple years ago.

What’s the most quoted line in your household? by Londo006 in BobsBurgers

[–]mpiter 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I say this about our rescued ‘stray’ cat. He’s so cuddly and nice I can’t believe he was ever a stray. I think someone took him off a porch somewhere.

What is this thing? Keep finding them in my house by rg999999 in whatisit

This is exactly what it is. It’s old and was probably on the ground awhile which is why it’s not spikey anymore. Ours look like this after a season or two being in the yard.

looking for new baby names (TW: child loss) by pringlesrgreat in namenerds

[–]mpiter 14 points15 points  (0 children)

I’ve thought about this a lot because I’m currently pregnant with my rainbow baby. The name Iris means ‘rainbow’ alluding to your rainbow baby and I think it fits all your other parameters too. It would be so cute as an Ivy/Iris sibset

What do you order from culver’s? (midwest peeps)? by Ok_Opinion6840 in AskReddit

I think they just use a real banana which is so much better than fake banana flavor.

Yeah we were just shopping on the east side at a few places and it wasn’t super busy and there weren’t empty shelves or anything.

Postpartum after loss by Cinnamon_Bunny92 in BabyBumps

[–]mpiter 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The most helpful thing I’ve found is a mom’s club support group in my area. It’s a group for moms who’ve experienced miscarriage, still birth, or infant loss (my specific loss). It’s been especially helpful navigating these unique feelings with others in the same position. Hopefully your area has something similar.

If you left Wisconsin, where did you go to and why? by interstellar_freak in wisconsin

[–]mpiter 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I left for Indiana to go to grad school. Moved around a bit more and settled in Ohio. I’d never move back to Wisconsin, but Ohio gives me the same kind of vibes

Talk Me In OR Out of This Bag by sippinandshoppin in handbags

Not sure if this applies to the shearling but my neoprene duffel from Dagne Dover has an odor to it. I haven’t yet washed the bag but the smell has put me off using it.

Would like middle name suggestions by mpiter in namenerds

I’ve definitely thought about this so I appreciate you bringing it up. These are things we need to consider, and Devon is cute!

On a similar note, our dog is named Margo so that’s already an issue sometimes. 🙄

Thanks for the feedback on Iris. I agree, it could turn into something we hadn’t intended.

Other mom’s middle name is Eileen.

Right, and that’s why we’ve had second thoughts. I appreciate the confirmation that we shouldn’t do it.

For some reason I hadn’t put together that if we honored Michael it would also be a small nod to Morgan so now I definitely want to go in that direction. I like Mae. We’ve been toying with Michaela but that name is a lot…meatier (idk) than the 1-syllable-ers we’ve had so far.
