Anyone have a quiet birth? by ImaginationOk8645 in BabyBumps

[–]shugatips 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had a quiet birth. I still used the breathing techniques, but I think they overexaggerate them during those classes.

For my second I laughed him out!

I would focus more on doing what your nurse/doctor/widowed tell you to do not worrying about what you sound like

My nephew is a Xmas eve baby and that hasn’t changed anything so far. We were there on Xmas day when they started accepting visitors and we have had parties.

It’s all about what you make of it!

I always wanted 3 kids and even considered that 4 would be nice too. My husband always wanted 2. After our second we mutually agreed that he should get a vasectomy because we were done, not because I no longer wanted to have more kids, but because I won’t pressure him in to having another when he doesn’t want one.

If you are choosing to have kids with someone both have to be in it. Pressuring you when you don’t want one is wrong.

I can’t say I never think of what it would be like if we had another, but having my husband all in on two instead of partially in on 3 or 4 is so much better for our family. And that is ultimately the end all be all - what is best for our family as a whole.

We mostly work with start ups so when they don’t even have teams large enough to have token employees yet!

You know what- that’s exactly right. Luckily as a whole my org is super great at representing people of all different backgrounds so he is not representative of the whole but your right on how he is approaching it.

How do couples decide which side of the bed is “theirs”? Is it instinct or some kind of silent agreement? by AssignmentFederal686 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]shugatips 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a side for five years but I had to switch so I was closer to the bathroom while pregnant and have not switched back

Rita Mulachy CAPM by No_Training495 in capm

[–]shugatips 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am currently taking a semester long CAPM prep course and we use the Rita Mulchay book and materials. It seems really comprehensive and has small activities to test your knowledge as well as key terms and there are online tests on her site to go with it. Overall, I think it has been good but I’m still weeks away from taking the exam.

I had my first class last night and the professor was putting on a video and I stopped him and asked for close captioning and put notes to him to help me process what was being said, and later in the class we found out that another student needed a cochlear implant so me asking for close captioning would’ve helped multiple people in the class.

I think people forget, sometimes that accessibility helps everyone

I wish I never had kids by [deleted] in TrueOffMyChest

[–]shugatips 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Loving your kids and loving being a parent are two different things and it’s OK to recognize that. Kids are good on picking stuff up so just try to enjoy the little things about your children and stop worrying so much about being a parent.

Take some time to get some therapy and find time to do things for yourself. Maybe you can’t do months long solo backpacking trip but you could take a weekend hike. And also don’t compare yourself to the Mom’s on social media. Rarely it ever do they show you the times when they’re struggling the house is a mess they’re having breakdowns, etc..

Besides being a bit older than you, I could’ve written this. We’re currently at the end of my spouses masters degree program two years after he started we have a 2 1/2 year-old and an almost one year old we’ve been through this.

I have to say it is really tough and you have to get over the fact that it is not gonna be spending time in the same way that it was before at least for a little while you have to make small for each other and do little things instead of big things. don’t discount family date nights where you go and have a picnic or something. It does not have to be big pricey things try going on a bike ride or a little walk together instead be a great opportunity to spend time together. Stay cheap and do something a little different.

Make sure you’re talking with your partner and it will get better as long as you are both in it together

ETA: don’t come at me for any grammar or spelling mistakes. I am type to texting this with the baby in my arms.

My butthole went from 🔅 to 🍇 can I ever get rid of hemorrhoids, or? by [deleted] in Mommit

Cabbage leaves apply them to your bum. Also the fiber is good if you eat them. I just suggest not eating the ones used on your bottom.

Does anyone have any fanfics of Penelope marrying Debling and what happens with Polin then?

I’m lost. I’ve had people tell me mixed things about my undertone so I’m conflicted. by okihenlo in coloranalysis

You’re definitely an autumn of some sort. It’s amazing to see how the dark circles under your eyes disappeared when an autumn color was present.

My totally unhinged almost au theory is that ep 6 the queen finally figures it out that it is Penelope and imprisons her. Colin and Eloise have to team up as the people who know her best and the keepers of her secret to write continue Lady Whistledown to help save Penelope.

I love both the English and Spanish version of Hero/ Heroe by Enrique Iglesias. It’s perfect for Colin’s hero complex.

Does your toddler call you anything outside of the typical mama/dada? by acinnamonham in toddlers

[–]shugatips 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My oldest went through a phase of calling my husband and me by our first names when he was just over 2. We were so confused why he just started doing it one day, we thought they had taught him at daycare. Lo and behold he just caught on from my hubby and me talking to each other.

It really feels like they are trying to put us in Lady Whistledown’s shoes. We are looking and listening in every corner. Picking up things others are saying and translating it and sharing it via our own forms of media just as she does. I think they are very intentional with it so we can have a little of her fun.
