@nomarga I hope your night of sleep comes soon.

@ebveloz My kid slept horribly, didn’t respond to sleep training so we gave up. From 7-9 months she was often up every 30 minutes. Then at 10 months she slept through the night and that was that. So that was my experience with what happens. My other kid we sleep trained and she slept through...

@paleouss No worries, it wasn't exactly clear. I kind of feel that may be the case here, where she's been all open with the family about how much they'll be trying so soon, to one up us. Like chill out and let us have a turn to have a baby, dude! But that's the selfish side of me talking.

@paleouss Yes, it's very frustrating - although in that case they'd both struggled with infertility for years so it was a fun coincidence they were pregnant together. No competition there.

@anastasiya1417 I think there may be a bit of a language barrier at work here. In the heading where you say you want to find out about how we felt about our pregnancy over the past 7 days, it would be prudent to say “skip over these questions if you are no longer pregnant” or something like that.

@rtellard Reddit skews against these mentalities. Gotta love the downvote brigade! I'm perfectly happy to travel with my husband and not by myself. I mean, one night stands in skeevy hotels across the world just don't do it for me! I got married at 20. And we won't have a kid until I'm 23 or...

@anastasiya1417 Then you’ve written the study questions poorly and they should be altered to direct participants to leave the questions that aren’t relevant unanswered or something like that. The instructions should say something about it to give participants warning, rather than taking 2 pages...

@pleasehelp1 Amen amen! I'm not surprised that she had such a hard time transitioning into parenthood at 30+ because she had these wonderful ideas (and liked to judge her sister when she had kids first -- don't feed him mac & cheese! So unhealthy!) And reality was a lot harsher than that...

@anastasiya1417 This might be the wrong sub to post this in considering it asks how you view your pregnancy in the past 7 days. R/babybumps might be more fitting.

@paleouss I got down voted on reddit the other day for telling someone I'm not missing out on anything by having kids young because all the things they listed were things I didn't enjoy (late nights bar hopping, staying at a restaurant with friends til closing, etc). Whatever. I'm happy with my...

@paleouss No way would I wait for someone else to get their lives in order. Your marriage and life is not dependent on someone else's life plans. Plain and simple. Yes, it sucks if your little brother has kids before you because your husband won't come around, but that's your own cross to carry...

@rtellard My family is the same way and my husband's family is a WHOLE OTHER LEVEL of open. It took a lot of getting used to.
