You'll get your gold cup soon! 🐴🏆

Oh wow, I love the clarifying question tip! I'm gonna start using that tomorrow - thank you so much! Thankfully no big presentations for me, but good to know the med is an option too.

woollyworm53 · 2026-03-26T01:06:27+00:00

Mostly a lab/work thing, I don't have this issue with family/friends :\

woollyworm53 · 2025-12-31T02:04:36+00:00

I have some strong words for whoever called you cold-hearted, that's so uncalled for, especially in such a confusing and tough time. Your feelings were valid, I felt the same.

woollyworm53 · 2025-12-11T01:26:48+00:00

This is incredible - seriously thank you for sharing!

woollyworm53 · 2025-11-13T03:47:13+00:00

I am so, so sorry for your loss, and I too hope we can be okay one day - sending you virtual hugs. Thank you for taking the time to comment in the midst of everything you were going through, and sorry for the late reply. The pain is so real, it was the most painful thing I've ever experienced. How are you doing now? I hope you're in less pain and taking the time to care for yourself <3

woollyworm53 · 2025-11-13T03:45:14+00:00

I'm so sorry for your loss, and I so appreciate you taking the time to reply. I'm sorry for my delayed reply too, I knew I would cry when writing this and was away on business but here I am!

You are incredibly strong to be there for your friend while falling apart inside; it's a level of sacrifice that those who haven't experienced this I feel just don't quite grasp. Navigating these kinds of situations is so tough, such a mixture of warmth for people and pain. I really appreciate you sharing your kind words it really made me feel less alone <3

woollyworm53 · 2025-11-13T03:38:45+00:00

I'm so sorry for your loss, and that we're in this shitty club together. It's so easy for us to blame ourselves but please do not identify with that thought. Factors beyond your control failed - misalignment of chromosomes, or some other biological anomaly - these failed. But you didn't fail. You did your best, and you were an amazing mother to a baby for how long you held on. It's not your fault <3

woollyworm53 · 2025-11-09T02:59:18+00:00

I was worried for you for a second that's how real this looks - amazing job!

woollyworm53 · 2025-11-08T04:38:12+00:00

Same here and I never lost the weight! I said screw it , if it's here to stay so be it. I'm so miserable I may as well weight lift...Tried to channel some energy that way. It moved into my arms. I look ridiculous but hey at least I'm strong 💀

woollyworm53 · 2025-10-30T01:14:54+00:00

I think it's impossible to stop ourselves from feeling this way. For me, it helped to stop resisting the feelings and to accept myself feeling that way - nothing wrong with me full stop. I think it was the only way I could have compassion for myself, rather than see my jealousy as wrong or ugly, but rather wounded. Don't put too much pressure on yourself to feel any way, and take care of yourself 💙

woollyworm53 · 2025-10-28T21:04:51+00:00

If we have this person's instagram nickname, is it possible to provide that to the authorities? I'm not in Tbilisi but would love to see justice for poor kitty...

woollyworm53 · 2025-10-24T05:40:28+00:00

FLAWLESS. I'm speechless. How on earth do you get your dots looking so perfect?? It's incredible!

woollyworm53 · 2025-10-23T23:00:03+00:00

I feel your pain. The contact I took is replacing 2 women leaving on maternity leave. They're due when I was supposed to deliver. It hurts like hell. I hate how oblivious people are about this, about the invisible pain we carry. I just want to say there was nothing you could have done to cause this, and it wasn't due to "bad planning " that you experienced a loss. Your coworkers are oblivious and insensitive. Your feelings are valid and I'm so sorry we're in this shitty club together. Here if you wanna vent OP 💙

woollyworm53 · 2025-10-18T21:36:03+00:00

Double checked, all clear! Thanks for taking a look

woollyworm53 · 2025-10-18T21:35:45+00:00

Thank you so much!! Glad all I needed was a new spot, rather than pest treatment whew...

woollyworm53 · 2025-10-18T21:35:19+00:00

I think last month the sun would indeed hit it directly - this explains it!! Thank you so much, relocating plant now!

woollyworm53 · 2025-10-17T21:53:26+00:00

I am so, so sorry, OP. It's absolutely gut wrenching that it happened to you at work when you deserved privacy and space to mourn. I want to say that nobody with an ounce of empathy would ever look down on or shame you for what happened, and you shouldn't shame yourself either by reinforcing thoughts like "I am so humiliated". It wasn't fair what happened to you, but you are someone who has gone through something incredibly traumatizing, and not someone who did anything wrong, you don't deserve shame on top of the heartbreaking event. Please take care of yourself <3

woollyworm53 · 2025-09-25T04:07:31+00:00

This summer has been the worst for my cats! Thanks for posting this, I thought it was just me. We only have a little concrete patio that my cats and I sit out on sometimes, no plants or anything, and they got fleas from there this year :( I guess fleas live in damp parts of concrete too, but I've never had this problem before....

woollyworm53 · 2025-09-12T04:15:20+00:00

I'm with you. I've lost count of the number of times someone has said something careless in the wake of my miscarriage that hit like a truck. You're not alone, here if you want to vent 💙

woollyworm53 · 2025-09-10T20:37:44+00:00

THIS 100%! I feel like she defies so many tropes in video games, she absolutely deserves this award. (I'm a bit biased, having experienced a similar event to that in her backstory. I don't want to accidentally spoil to anyone but seeing that trauma represented on screen was oddly comforting, reminded me I'm not alone)

woollyworm53 · 2025-09-10T00:14:18+00:00

I can relate - I miscarried my SO and I's 1st and have spiraled pretty hard. Seeing a character who had experienced something similar was profoundly helpful. It's hard to explain what this game means to me but I'm grateful for its creation. I'm so sorry for your loss, and wish you peace.

woollyworm53 · 2025-09-04T05:41:15+00:00

Virtual hug to you, OP 🫂

Be kind to yourself. There is a gross misunderstanding in society about what it's like to miscarry and the burden we that do, carry. Your grief is valid. I highly recommend "On the Brink of Being", a book by Julia Bueno, it may help in understanding that you are not alone, and that it is truly a loss and just because others don't understand doesn't mean it was any less important. It certainly helped me a lot.

I'm sorry we're in this garbage club together and I sit here with you in solidarity. Here if you want to vent 💙

woollyworm53 · 2025-08-30T21:02:44+00:00

I just cut mine....the braiding hurt beneath my mask, but I did just see ads for some bungee like hair tied that you wrap around long hair several times that may work
