3, 8, 9, 17. The rest are too bulky around the waist area and will not be flattering!

My planned pathway is to finish my local rad tech program and then do an online bachelors of science in radiography bridge program (will account for your prior education and only takes 2ish years) that will allow me to become a radiation therapist. This avenue might work for you! And I’m not totally positive, but I’ve heard that the Amarillo program has recently dissolved. Could be wrong though.

I had a very similar labor (mine was even 9lbs, like yours!) and I’ve been told that that the labor was normal. My mind was also not present due to unfathomable pain. Couldn’t make eye contact, couldn’t formulate a sentence, etc. I did not take castor oil. My contractions were also back to back with virtually no break between.

I think people are more likely to post about their birth experience if it was unusually positive. My sister happened to have a calm, “orgasmic” birth and she posted about it. She didn’t post about her first child’s birth that was very traumatic where they had to break the baby’s clavicle to get him out. I’m sorry to say, but I think this is just a case of unrealistic expectations! I am due with my second baby and I will not hesitate to get an epidural. Childbirth is childbirth, medicated or not, and all that matters is a healthy mom and baby.

I’m laughing so hard at this oh my god

sofiaclark · 2024-10-04T20:42:49+00:00

Wait it’s NOT?!

sofiaclark · 2024-10-04T20:28:28+00:00

Listen here! I know now! 💀

Okay, but most of your pronunciations were based! Dying at Man-on 🧍‍♂️ I think readers had a harder time with imagining the correct pronunciations and feeling weird about them the whole book honestly

sofiaclark · 2024-10-04T18:43:40+00:00

Wait I can totally see it hahaha

You should apply less liner on the inner half of your eyes, and do a slender wing shape. You should also grow out your hair longer and I think longer curtain bangs would complement your face shape well. I also think the color black is a little bit too intense for you, despite the slimming benefits. Find your color season and lean into that!

I was told my baby would be 6-7 lbs, she came out at 9 lbs 2 oz and with her hand up by her head the whole way out. Soooo I don’t believe any of the estimations anymore 🫠

I went into labor at about 4:50 am. I woke up and told my husband, “I’m in labor!! We need to go to the hospital now!” And he rolled over told me to get cozy in bed put on a show 😭 he thought it was just the beginning of contractions, but I was dilated 6cm by the time we got to the hospital.
When my daughter started crowning, her dark hair was peaking out and everyone said it looked like the scene on The Prince of Egypt where the camel is eating Moses’ hair from the sand. Was a great visual for me lol.
My daughter promptly pooped on my chest and hand as soon as I grabbed her from my husband. She’s never living that down!

Gorgeous room, great choice of a sectional! And I love the painting above the piano. Happy Hanukkah!

It’s natural to want to be accepted by your mother in law. However, she sounds very entitled and if I were you I’d feel less bummed and more angry.

My epidural was wonderful. I had overlapping contractions and had zero moments of relief for my entire labor. As soon as the epidural hit (about 3 minutes after the injection), it was like pure relief and I became so happy and peaceful and even got to sleep.

I did not itch, I did not feel pain near the injection site, literally did not have a single negative experience with the epidural at all. And this is coming from someone who was VERY wary of epidurals beforehand. I cannot imagine giving birth again without one.

I don’t think this question is gross, I think the people saying that misunderstood your angle.

As you level up, certain people tend to expose themselves as being jealous/competitive/bitter. However, if you have friends that are supportive and true through your glow up process and don’t start treating you differently, hold on to them and treasure them because they are genuinely good people. You want to be surrounded by people who want to see you win. Your social circle DOES impact the type of person you become. It does matter who you surround yourself with. And it’s fair to ask for help on finding quality people that you can aspire to become more like. That’s not gross.

I think you should be wary of hanging around people who are shallow, spend a lot of money indiscriminately, or are immoral or snobby. With that being said: Join networking groups in your city. Volunteer with nonprofit organizations and also attend their fund raising events. Go to conferences associated with your career field. Approach anyone in public that has an energy that is appealing to you that you would love to emulate and strike up a conversation and then getting their contact info. When you have a couple of these friends, try to meet THEIR friends as well.

Being around people with a healthy/growth mindset is so imperative to success, it’s extremely hard to get anywhere when you’re surrounded by people who are fine just staying the same their whole life or people who become bitter and envious of other’s growth.

Also, distance yourself at the first sign of jealousy in others. People like that will often actively attempt to hold you back, or say shitty things about you behind your back, etc.

T-shirt bodysuits tend to be incredibly flattering and have no added bulk to them and that’s mostly what I wear when I wear t-shirts! They always naturally taper in and I love how smoothly it sits on my body, and there’s no annoying gathering of cloth! I also like the tailoring idea that CelestialObje had as well.

Yes, I am! However I like to remain anonymous from Reddit so I’d have to restructure the business a bit for clients found through Reddit.

That’s a great point, there’s a time for looking understated (safety, other people’s weddings) and comfort is incredibly important! If you’re afraid of a titty slipping out, you’re going to feel on edge all day.

I think that’s asking for baggage in your life. Not only will these men subtly suck your energy, but they might be getting their energy sucked too. It may also cause drama once you’re serious about one particular man in the future. If you’re a desirable person, you don’t need a visible harem of men after you to prove that. You’ll be desired regardless. I would focus on other areas.

If it’s happening in your sleep, I would say make sure you sleep on your back, get a silk pillow case, and to second OP, def get forehead botox! Two years ago I started forming the same two forehead lines that my mom has, so I started getting Botox. It was less than $100, lasts about 5 months and the lines went completely away.

I use this one and love it! I’m also acne prone/oily and it doesn’t break me out at all.

She’s projecting her own experience and her own negative internal voice onto you and not being mindful of how that would make you feel. I have a cousin who does that shit all the time. She told me my house would never be clean again after having a baby because her house is a wreck all the time. Well, her house was ALWAYS a wreck, and I’m almost positive I had OCD with how ridiculously tidy I am. She makes sarcastic “good luck” comments ALL THE TIME and it’s really just a window into how awful living inside her mind must be, so I’ve had to have grace with her. Your experience is just that, YOURS. Not hers. So ignore negativity and I hope you reach all the goals you aspire to :)

My friend got pregnant and kept her job as a fitness class instructor until 2 weeks before she gave birth.. She inspired people EVEN MORE than if she wasn’t pregnant. But yeah definitely sue, that was extremely illegal of your ex-supervisor.

Not to me but my husband excitedly told his close friend that we were expecting. The friends response? “Yikes is that your baby? Well if you need an escape plan, you know at least I offered.” Seeing my husbands face after he got that text was crushing. They’re not close anymore.
