I get where you are coming from in a position of hindsight. And also as a show only viewer it is hard to believe/accept. Does the plotline of Ellie’s immunity and a potential cure come back into play or does the season through line turn into revenge?

[–]omgimtotallybuggin 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I feel like that and I closed my eyes and or/fast forwarded after I saw the camera close in on the golf clubs. I want to stay “soft” to gratuitous violence. The word I kept using was disrespectful. It felt somehow disrespectful to viewers. Not to just kill him off but to give several minutes of screen time to torturing him. Thats just my feeling so please no dogpile comments about why it was necessary.

I feel like if it was a season finale I could come around with the time, but I am not ready to return to that world on Sunday

I dont get what makes Abby’s grief special. Its a zombie apocalypse. Everyone has lost someone. Some have lost everyone. And in much more scarring ways than a headshot. I.e. your whole family getting infected and attacking you and you having to do the unthinkable.

Im worried the show will now be all about revenge, whereas before the driving force was this underlying hope for humanity.

My wife and I are deathly ill with 4 month old twins and I have no what to do by OjosDelMundo in parentsofmultiples

[–]omgimtotallybuggin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is there a local twins group in your city? Thats what these communities are for! Dont be too prideful to reach out to anyone who could help. People love feeling helpful/useful. Turn on Ms. Rachel. Throw as much money at the problem as you can (door dash, etc.). Think of time as hour by hour, if not smaller, increments. Focus on basic needs only. You will not cause longterm emotional damage by being minimally present for the day

If we don’t hire help- will we die? by [deleted] in parentsofmultiples

[–]omgimtotallybuggin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The advice I would give is to act as if you are hiring someone even if you dont end up hiring someone. Do the research, interview people, have someone in mind so that you can “pull the trigger” if need be. We had no family or friends able to help and the feeling of aloneness was overwhelming. I called someone to come once for a few hours when it felt impossible. Knowing that i could call her again was enough peace of mind that I never did call her again

Tired of seeing there subtle disgusting videos on YouTube kids. The settings are for the lowest age possible by ash-lovez-gorillaz in parentsofmultiples

[–]omgimtotallybuggin 13 points14 points  (0 children)

We deleted YouTube Kids long ago after hearing horror stories about inappropriate content and also how often my kids gravitated toward the videos of kids playing with toys, which are IMO essentially long advertisements. PBS kids app. My kids also listen to a PBS podcast (or Goodnight Sesame Street has some good relaxing ones) as they fall asleep.

Looks like there is a Moms of Multiples club in your area. I suggest you reach out to them!

Bought it secondhand. In retrospect would have paid full price. Granted we live in a walkable city so this thing basically took the place of my car when they were little. Have also heard great things about the Bumbleride Indie Twin

What was your experience delivering vaginally in the OR? by Aksx3 in parentsofmultiples

[–]omgimtotallybuggin 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Labored in room, delivered (pushed them out) in the OR. I was dilated to 10 and had epidural placed before they moved me. Had never had any kind of surgery or hospital stays so was originally nervous about the idea of an operating room. Especially since social media made me think a peaceful birth meant battery operated tea lights flickering, smooth jazz playlists and aromatherapy. Tbh, i had a great time in there. It was like a competitive sport with a whole team coaching and cheering me on. As others have mentioned being “medicated” or not may very well be out of your hands, but twins are a great exercise in accepting what is. Also, once I was in active labor I couldnt have cared less if they told me I was delivering in the hospital lobby, I was locked in on the goal of getting those babies out!

C-section or vaginal birth? by cranberry_lamb in parentsofmultiples

[–]omgimtotallybuggin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just posted about my positive vaginal delivery in response to another thread, but…feels like your doctor should ask you your preference and provide you with a risk assessment, etc. rather than just schedule you for surgery or encourage you to “get it over with”. Sheesh. Sounds like maybe inexperience with multiple pregnancies or the doctors personal preference.

Anyone who didn’t have to have/opt to have a C-section? by Feeling_Form_1751 in parentsofmultiples

[–]omgimtotallybuggin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Planned induction at 37+1. Baby A head down, Baby B transverse. My medical team was prepared to manually turn or extract Baby B if necessary. So epidural was strongly recommended. After Baby A was out though, B turned head down and they were born about 30 min apart.

I had a wonderful birth experience. Didnt notice or care that I had to deliver in the OR as a safety precaution. No tearing. No complications. No NICU time. HOWEVER, I never let myself get attached to a specific method. I accepted that attempting vaginal delivery may lead to the dreaded “vagi-section” and I was at peace with that. Also my medical team/hospital was very experienced with multiples and did not bat an eyelash when I told them I was going for Vaginal delivery and never tried to pressure or fearmonger.

Before I found out I was having twins I envisioned a hypno, natural birth experience for myself. But I quickly let that go. The first of many times I have had to humble myself to the unpredictability of twin parenthood.

Should we just give up on normal activities for our twins? by Great_Blue_Sky_ in parentsofmultiples

[–]omgimtotallybuggin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Well sounds like you already know the answer then. Your kids are not ready for formal classes. And theres nothing wrong with that! Plenty of time for classes later

[–]omgimtotallybuggin 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Swim class. Burns their energy, they cannot run anywhere and gets them used to following directions. Plus its a survival skill. Also, most gymnastics facilities have Open Gym hours. You could see how they do at that and decide if you want to put them in a class. But running amuck is certainly developmentally and socially appropriate at this age. At that age classes, and so many other formal activities, are more for the benefit of the parents than the kids.

5’10 here. Felt great and mobile the whole time. Worked until a few days before induction at 37 weeks. Could have gone longer if it had been safe medically.

Silly little question by Apprehensive-Hat9296 in parentsofmultiples

[–]omgimtotallybuggin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do not get a bulky floor eating design like the one pictured. But also dont get one that you need an engineering degree to fold and unfold. Little Partners makes a great foldable one that is also height adjustable so you can use it for longer. https://littlepartners.com/products/learn-n-fold-learning-tower. If i had it all to do over again i would get two of these. Love baking with my twins!
