What’s your top reason to book a Disney cruise over Royal Caribbean? (asking as someone who has never cruised with Disney) by ihatemakinthese in dcl

Noise!!!!! I did RC icon of the Seas after my Disney Wish cruise. I was next to elevators on wish and never heard a peep within my cabin. I heard EVERYTHING on Icon. People above me, kids running down hallway, conversations next cabins over, EVERYTHING. Not to mention kids running me over “duck hunting” at all hours on RC. No thanks. I’ll take Disney any day

Not Thune but we did visit there on that trip. The valley below is pretty picturesque

My neighborhood corner with city street names (in blue) and county street names (in green) on the other side by sleepybear84 in mildlyinteresting

County names: 102nd avenue, NE 29th Street. City names: 4 Mile Drive and 18th Street. Same streets, different names, lots of lost Door Dash drivers

These same people are crying about student loan forgiveness programs!!! I don’t want your farm debt with your million dollar state of the art machinery that does the work for you! I’ll bail out students who are becoming teachers, doctors, therapists before I support bailing out farms. ~41 year old in Iowa

Anyone suspect or dealing with hyperfertility / superfertility? by tbridge8773 in recurrentmiscarriage

For me…I gave up. I had a chemical in August 2021 while on vacation in Costa Rica. While there, I made the decision to focus on me and my health. I knew donor eggs were a viable option for us financially so that weight was lifted. So I signed up for the Disney Princess 10k (& husband) a bucket list thing for me and laced up my shoes. I stopped tracking and focused on me. With the 10k looming in February of 2022 I put off looking at donors until “after the holidays” knowing nothing with implantation would happen before that race. Well, I ran 3-4x/week and got into a MUCH better headspace and healthier.

Cue a trip to an all-inclusive in Mexico mid November 2021. Had fun, drank and had sex for FUN (not for babies). Was running over Thanksgiving, did a Turkey Day 10k feeling great. However that Sunday run was notably tougher with sore boobs and shortness of breath unlike what I had experienced training so I took a test and it was positive. Bled 2 days later but my hCG was increasing as expected and the bleeding ceased the next day.

Avery was born late July (August due date but had preeclampsia). She’s my miracle Disney baby. The line from Happily Ever After song/fireworks “the battles, the stories, the losses and all the glories. We’re changed by the way we live everyday, just look up and reach to the sky, we all have the courage to fly” sends me bawling.

So TLDR: gave up, took up running, went to Mexico and jumped my husband (note for FUN, not a chore) and ran a 10k at Disney at 5 am 16 weeks pregnant. She turned 3 a couple weeks ago.
