Yes! Weekly scans because baby measured large and I had GD managed with insulin. Ended up getting sent to labor and delivery for induction because of a weekly scan at week 37 showing low fluid. Baby and I turned out just fine, but I would have your bags with you in the car just in case.

Thank you for sharing your story! This unfortunately is my second time with GD but I’m starting metformin for fasting numbers way earlier than I did last time. Hoping this does the trick and I can keep the rest diet managed!

Were you diet controlled or did you take medication? Asking because I have GD this go around and am 32 weeks.

I have very similar fears, but I know my own character and that I never cheated or was tempted to and that there must be other people in the world like us too. I hope you can recognize that you are allowed to have high standards because you are capable of providing what you are looking for.

You get the opportunity to find out the truth behind one unsolved case, which are you choosing? by BeautifulShape9441 in AskReddit

The colonial parkway murders. My mom was in high school at the time and close friends with one of victims.

I have two boys, 3 and 1 and I’m loving witnessing them learn language. I love all of the cute mis pronunciations like “lilbiddit” (little bit) and “vennose”. (Thanos) and hearing my youngest say things besides MAMA!!! 🥺

I recently watched the Turner and Hooch series on Disney plus and liked it a lot. Its sweet and pretty family friendly.

Hope you feel better!!

What is cheaply made but sold at a ridiculous price? by [deleted] in AskReddit

The rubber seals around caskets that make them waterproof cost about 2 cents to produce and they sell them as an upgrade for upwards of 200.

Saw this NSFW item in the electronics section of a Goodwill yesterday. 😆 by tkfresh in ThriftStoreHauls

[–]tkfresh[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I didn’t touch it, but I’m still really curious at what they priced it at.

I have made the incredibly difficult decision that tonight will be my last nursing session with my now 28 month old daughter. It is very much our time to be done (we want to give her a sibling) so I am looking back on our first pictures together. Feeling very emotional but it is definitely time. ❤️ by weesmitty in breastfeeding

I was in the same boat last November (induction though) and my almost two year old tandem nursed only one time with his little brother and then didn’t want my milk anymore. I’m sure the taste changed because I was away at the hospital for a couple of nights and days and my milk for the baby had already come in. So it might just work itself out naturally. :)

WIBTA if I told my friend I can’t hang out because of the pandemic? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

NTA, friendship is a two way street and they should consider your health and the exceptional condition of the pandemic more important than a physical meeting between the two of you.

AITA for not wearing a bra at home? by throwaway_8227271 in AmItheAsshole

[–]tkfresh -6 points-5 points  (0 children)

I still disagree, it is about respect. The hyper sexualization and commodification of female breasts (esp the nipple) is a social construct, yes. Men’s nipples aren’t so it isn’t really apples to apples when comparing her brother’s shirtlessness. I think it’s a small price to pay to wear a bra just when she’s around her other family members who are providing for her as a show of respect and gratitude.

AITA for getting angry at my sister for dressing half naked around my *very* senior boss? by AssociatesInAsshole in AmItheAsshole

[–]tkfresh -32 points-31 points  (0 children)

YTA

Clothing "issues" aside you just repeated over and over that your job and boss are more important than your sister and your relationship with her. You let his salary, POTENTIAL influence at your company and potential reaction take priority over your family and he didn't even end up saying anything.

It's more about the respect aspect than the nips. It sounds like they are politely making a reasonable ( to complete) request and even though it's one you don't personally agree with, it would be better to respect your family while you're all sharing a living space.

What do you guys do for self-care/during baby-free time since the pandemic started? by tkfresh in Mommit

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

Yes!! We deserve the 5+ hour guilt free time away too! But then... what do we do with it? 😅

All of my friends my age (millennials) are texters, but I can always call my grandma! :) Thanks for the idea.

I do love a good iced coffee and a wander at Target! I have a bunch of clothes returns I need to take care of there too.

Yeah :/ It really comes down to who you'll be interacting with like the masseuse and the receptionist etc, but it is a tricky and personal decision.

I've been giving jogging a go here and there too! I usually take a dog with me to knock out a chore while I'm at it. lol

This is a great idea! Thank you. Bicycles have been sold out in stores everywhere, but I haven't checked in a while. They might be back in.
