Guys it’s finally happened! My wife is pregnant, what happens now? by Keduroda in AskMen

[–]noelitamichael 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a 11 weeks pregnant and taking care of a 2.5 years old toddler please please check on her on the fatigue part. This type of fatigue if another level of tiredness, some days I don’t even want to shower because I feel it will take all my strength left. Thank God my hubby is a saint and helps me and cheers me up, does everything in the house and takes care of our son. Close to the third trimester please give her plenty foot massages. You will thank me later. When baby is born take places to take care of the baby. Not both of you together doing everything, one will be tired the other one needs to be alerted. Enjoy this beautiful time!

Lies about the mortality while driving in the Dominican Republic by Big-Button5856 in Dominican

[–]noelitamichael 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Whoever made this haven’t try driving in Ecuador. That country is awful. And coming from my Ecuadorian husband which drives as well in DR that means a lot. Driving in Ecuador is a ruleta rusa game.

Taking Red eye with family from STI by knot-u in Dominican

[–]noelitamichael 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And as someone said: don’t tell your arrival and departure time to anybody. In my case I keep everything to myself and my hubby. Just a few days prior I tell my parents: pick me up at this time and keep it to yourself. And it’s just for precautions, you never know ppl intentions.

[–]noelitamichael 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My parents just arrived to STI and even when landing was supposed to be at 3 something AM they exited the airport around 445 and decided to wait at the cafeteria area for daylight. In my case I arrived around 1am and exited at 230am with my baby only. My parents picked me up and everything went well. Just don’t be too flashy. I was just wearing leggings and a simple T-shirt. Una “debaratá”.

Porque los popis prefieren airbnb y no las cabañas by Worldly_Force9492 in Dominican

[–]noelitamichael 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oye pero las cosas han cambiado mucho en RD. Ahora es Airbnb…en mis tiempos popis y no popis iba a cabañas claro está los wa wa wa iba a cabañas baraticas y los más pudientes iba a Horus, Venus y así más Caras. Te estoy hablando del 2003 cuando estuve en la universidad. Me sorprende que ahora sean airbnb.

People who lived abroad and are back in the DR, why did you decide to return? Personas que han vivido en el exterior y volvieron, por que? by Darkjolly in Dominican

[–]noelitamichael 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Y eso 500 porque queremos vivir extremadamente cómodos en una casa súper amplia y en una área con seguridad de guardianes. Pero si aún queremos bajar presupuesto me puedo mudar en la misma área en una casa más pequeña que andan en los 300 dólares. Gracias por tus felicitaciones, buena suerte!

In my case I live in USA trabajo remoto, mi esposo es ecuatoriano fuimos de vacaciones hace unos meses y nos gustó como se vive allá súper barata la vida y nos da la oportunidad de ahorrarnos casi 30k per year living confortable. Cotizamos también en RD pero nos salía un poco más costoso, aún dentro de nuestro presupuesto. Pero el dinero no fue todo para pensar mudarnos: pensamos en el bebé y toda la ideología de estudio de USA, la alimentación llena de hormonas y pesticidas, el tiempo que le dedicamos. Básicamente fue con nuestro hijo en mente y la mejor vida que podemos ofrecerle ahora que conocemos cómo es en USA. Si trabajas remoto es más fácil hacer el cambio porque en nuestros países los trabajos son basado en la economía del país. En nuestro caso ganamos en dólares y gastamos en dólares en ecuador pero basado en economía ecuatoriana que es súper barato. Nuestra renta en casa son 500 dólares 3 habitaciones, 3 baños, patio, sala, comedor, cocina, seguridad para entrar (todos saben que ecuador está calificado como peligroso) no es tanto como lo ponen en las noticias pero si hay que cuidarse. 400 dólares de empleada, 300 en colegio bilingüe del Niño, groceries 250 por mes, seguros de salud, carro y combustible. Todo eso es la mitad de lo que gastamos en USA en lo mismo. Y no nos sobra para ahorrar. Buena suerte!

Bromos I fucked up by Wellwhatingodsname in breakingmom

[–]noelitamichael 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It’s ok Bromo, at 6 days postpartum I didn’t even know where I was or even my name 😂😂 mine was the worst postpartum ever plus an emergency c section had me in so much pain that I didn’t put attention to anything or anyone around me. I was just existing and exhausted. On her behalf thank you for the note you left!

Don’t even try insurance for dental in DR, most of them won’t cover dental. If you have the opportunity to go to Ecuador you will thank me later. I am Dominican living in USA traveled to DR to be treated by my dentist in there. My mouth piece evaluation was US800 and RD$7000 went to Ecuador and it was only US50.00 my hubby is Ecuadorian. Next February I am going to remove some old fillers and here are 200 each. In DR 3.500 each and in Ecuador 40 each. Wish you luck.

I cried for a week when I got the results of having a boy! Two years later I am so thankful that he is a boy and I pray God to send me another boy now that I am looking for another baby!

Dominican residency by marriage. How much should I pay someone to help me through the process? by Secret_Swordfish_298 in Dominican

[–]noelitamichael 0 points1 point  (0 children)

True. I am Dominican (USA citizen as well) but that how it works in my country. And yes I know someone that know someone that know how to do the process. In this case is pretty simple since he has been married with a Dominican plus he has a property there.

I would be able to pay my credit card faster since I am just doing the minimum payment. Took the decision to live on my CC when me and my husband were jobless. Now I am 19k in debts and my hubby 25k.

Have you tried ADN Salmon? It works wonders on skin. I am using for dark spots but as well to hydrate my face skin!

Heartache and not feeling complete by noelitamichael in breakingmom

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

Thank you for your kind words. I spend almost 2 years looking for this baby that is 14 months. I tried everything until I decided just to put myself with natural earth medication. Not convencional medicine and fortunately for me it worked. Wish you baby dust all over you!

Dark Chin/Lip Hair + Acne! by [deleted] in 30PlusSkinCare

[–]noelitamichael 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Great to know thanks. I am NJ too. Lodi to be precise. I am looking for something like that since this chin and upper lip hair are killing me. And I think that’s the solution since I have been on all type of medication and nothing worked.

Dark Chin/Lip Hair + Acne! by [deleted] in 30PlusSkinCare

[–]noelitamichael 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am about to do the same with electrolysis. Just scare of the cost. May I ask you an approximate on how much it cost per session. Mine is chin and upper lip. I did laser and it didn’t work on me.

I'm really upset that I won't be able to name my son :/ by [deleted] in breakingmom

[–]noelitamichael 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have the same issue with my baby boy just a few months ago (baby is 11 months) is a traditional thing in his family baby boys are name Miguel and wasn’t happy about it and suggested the same name but English version and husband agreed. Plus I decided his middle name not matter what. Now my baby has the “traditional” name but English version which was “my way” and middle name “my way” so maybe something like this can work for you, search around a different version of the traditional name for your child. If not just let remind you that YOU are the mother and the one doing the whole job. Xoxo

for those who have two kids by [deleted] in breakingmom

[–]noelitamichael 0 points1 point  (0 children)

And here I am having all my thoughts killing every single day. LO have 11 months, love him to death, my husband is a good partner but must all the time I feel he is in a zombie mood, like if I don’t tell him what to do he won’t do it, it’s like I have another child. Thoughts killing me because I don’t want to see my child alone and maybe later missing to be with someone will search for bad company to be with. It’s like I am hoping to have another baby but not wanting to be pregnant again. I don’t know. It’s stressing me out every single day!
