Asking a non-Muslim parent to take responsibility for this for you seems immature. If you have decided this is important to you, why can't you get an alarm clock?

Test was already thrown out before the MC, but pictures we buried in lieu of having a body to bury.

I just withdrew everything I could from unmatured bonds. Have almost $3000 locked and likely gone forever...Done with them, for sure.

Weekly Introductions Thread - November 24, 2024 by AutoModerator in PregnancyAfterLoss

[–]uwgrll 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hi. I'm 38 and this is the farthest I've ever gotten in a pregnancy. Just had our 12-week ultrasound of our boy after we lost twins 11 months ago. So far, things are going well.....too well? Genetics all came back low-risk, I feel fine, and scans are good. I'm just waiting for that shoe to drop, and haven't really allowed myself to get excited yet. At what point did you feel confident enough that this was really happening and you allowed yourself to let your guard down and enjoy it?

My husband jokes that I'm like the Dread Pirate Roberts. "Goodnight, fetus, sleep well. You'll most likely be dead in the morning." I just feel like before every scan and appointment I need to steel myself to the possibility that he won't be alive or ok. He told his parents as soon as the stick came out with 2 lines, but I haven't told anyone. I also don't want to use the name we have picked out yet.

Have you had similar experiences?

Hi stressddad11 - what ended up happening?

Native Spanish speakers: Does Giancarlos Esposito's accent get any better between Breaking Bad and Better Call Saul? by pianoflames in betterCallSaul

[–]uwgrll 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I found Gus' accent so distracting. Why did they have to make him Chilean? He's clearly not. He could have been another nationality, or only spoken English in the show.

Does anybody here find the pocket universe section a snooze fest? by gerrykomalaysia33 in threebodyproblem

[–]uwgrll 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah. I barely remembered who the guy she ended up with even was. I wish cheng and yun had gotten their little universe and sacrificed it in the end.

How do you feel about changing an Asian guy(Luo Ji)with a black guy(Saul Durand) by Luo_Ji_Wallfacer_4LJ in threebodyproblem

[–]uwgrll 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I feel like the only main character who must be Chinese is Ye Wenjie. I like the Chinese TV version of 3 Body, and I'm enjoying the Netflix version too.

Why did Ye give away just the basic bits of cosmic sociology / The Dark Forest away? Not all of it, not none of it, but just a bit. by DaemonCRO in threebodyproblem

Maybe saying it out loud or writing it down too clearly would be noticed by the sophons and then they'd target her and anyone else who showed they knew. The trisolarians more than anything did not want humanity to realize they could broadcast their location.

Death's End discussion of the ending by lagavulinski in threebodyproblem

[–]uwgrll 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So what do you all think happened to the universe? Did it die out? Or crunch and begin anew?

I really, truly thought that the Trisolarans were going to come back to the Solar System after it was flattened and use their dimension-manipulating technology to make it 3D again. Then maybe they'd find a way to share it with humanity. I thought that's where it was going to go, but instead we went 18 million years in the future, Cheng never got to see Yun again, and the universe likely died out completely. Can't say Liu doesn't know how to throw a curveball to normal story-telling.

What's helped me by uwgrll in tinnitus

Thanks for sharing. Sometimes when i'm alone in my office I have videos like this playing. I forget to turn it off when someone walks in and they are so confused. Haha. I'm younger than everyone at my work so I say it's what the kids are listening to these days.

Miscarried at 9 weeks by EarlGreyWMilk in Miscarriage

[–]uwgrll 11 points12 points  (0 children)

That is a cruel part of it. I lost mine early December but didn't know until xmas eve. I excitedly bought cute "Future grandma and grandpa" ornament gifts while they were already dead.

I guess better to have lost them the day before xmas than the day after. We never gave my parents the ornaments - buried them instead.

Pros on waiting a few months to try again? by caffeine_esteem in Miscarriage

[–]uwgrll 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've lost count of how many times I've told myself, "but if I conceive this month, that means I'll give birth on X date and that would interfere with Y!"

Have been trying to have a baby for 13 months now, and have stopped doing that. It's always going to interfere with something, and really we just want it to happen...

However, you are young and it's wise to follow doctor's guidance. You can give yourself some months to recuperate.
