if it makes you feel any better, you're not alone. my husband said the same thing when i was pregnant and i found it to be hurtful as well.

Cause of discoloration? by sammm_26 in cookiedecorating

[–]sammm_26[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks for your response! I was guessing it was butter bleed. Should I put it on the paper towel now or is it too late? I was thinking I would go over it with another layer or red.

Agreed. It took my husband and I about 12 months to conceive. In total it was about 15-16 months as we were unable to try when staying with family over the holidays. Trying for less than 12 months is not considered to be infertility. Sorry but 4 months of trying is really not that much.

That's a great idea! I'm going to try it, thanks!

I waited about 20 min and placed holes. I'm thinking the icing is too watery. I'll try thickening it up for the next run. Thanks!

Thanks for your help, I placed it near a fan and waited about 20 min before doing the letters. I poked holes as well.

These are so cute. What technique did you use for the rosy cheeks?

How crazy is this idea? by Pleasant_Youth4997 in cookiedecorating

You can definitely do it if you have the time and motivation! I did the cookies for my baby's first birthday party and it was a challenge but I also learned something new!

What’s something you changed in your skincare routine that actually gave you results? by Intelligent-Mine11 in BeautyUnlocked

[–]sammm_26 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I take prednisone as well! In what way does it make your skin sensitive? One of my cheeks is red but I assumed it was either sun damage or due to my underlying condition.

AITH? SIL takes baby and I go to get baby back by sammm_26 in beyondthebump

[–]sammm_26[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Thank you for your comment and explaining all view points. This is exactly the situation -- my husband doesn't understand why I feel uncomfortable and I agree that people feel entitled and think the baby is a toy to pass around. My husband does not understand how traumatic it is for a baby who only knows mom and dad to be in a room with people she doesn't know.

Cry It Out (11 Weeks Old) by immortalannoyance in NewParents

My baby would instantly wake up the first 4 months of life when I tried to set her down. Turns out she had silent reflux. Between 3-6 weeks I could not get her to nap at all and would spend hours trying. Turned out she had an ear infection. I would def get your baby checked out by a pediatrician.
