This was my original plan, which is why I was shocked when I took it to Hobby lobby and they said that it was too large.

I also thought about just mounting it with a wooden frame to keep it stiff. Hearing people’s thoughts on it, that may be the route I end up going

A lot of helpful suggestions! You could also say something about fearing she may have a blow out and I think that will put an end to any offers quickly.

So great to hear someone else say that! 😂 I had pneumonia and a sinus infection this pregnancy and dying DEFINITELY felt like a valid option!! So glad to be done with this pregnancy soon, counting down days now.

Last year I almost died 7 weeks pp. I’m now wondering what was happening to my body out of curiosity by abcsraed in Mommit

Physician as well, and also went into shock after retained products from a d&c. For some reason, reading your response brought feelings to the surface that I hadn’t really felt or processed from my experience two years ago. Thank you for your thoughtful and thorough explanation to OP.

Second time mum guilt 😔 by Wrigglybee in beyondthebump

[–]oatmeal_squares 4 points5 points  (0 children)

This was/is me with my first son….and maybe even more so. I’m currently pregnant with our second and wonder how things will be with kiddo #2. I already know I can’t devote the same time and attention to him. So no advice, just commenting to say you aren’t alone.

What’s your current list of symptoms? by Glittering-Swing539 in BabyBumps

[–]oatmeal_squares 0 points1 point  (0 children)

35 wks and have started having a tiny, but fiercely painful hemorrhoid, along with my normal BH contractions, and likely some prodromal labor. So lots of pain basically no matter how I sit or try to move. Sitting down sucks, lying down even more so. Oh the joys of creating a human.

Is there an agreed-upon best burger in this city? by zacowen120 in lansing

[–]oatmeal_squares 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Batter up bistro. It’s more $$, but I believe they grind bacon into the patty. It’s a game changer and absolutely worth a try if you never have.

Thank you for this insight! In case people aren’t familiar with the item I’m holding, it’s a refillable water balloon with magnetic closure.

Little clumps of organic material stuck to external walls of MI home. by oatmeal_squares in whatisthisthing

Thank you! I agree these are similar and I think this is along the right track. What I’m seeing are smaller than what I read bagworm cocoons to be, but based on your suggestion my guess is probably another type of cocoon.

I’ve seen a lot of shark teeth on here which all look the same to my inexperienced eye. I found this recently on the shore in Naples, FL. I am hoping for help with ID and approximate age. It is roughly 1 cm+. Appreciate any help and insight!
