@jebadoa Lots of cultures potty train early, it’s called elimination communication. There’s a whole sub about it - r/ECers

@mercmorris28 This is pretty cool actually. Most people tend to assume that if they wait until their 30s they can only have 2 kids. Amazing that your ancestors were able to have so many kids, especially in a time with far less medical knowledge of pregnancy and birth. One thing to consider...

@kd_1p48 I already have something that does this without batteries. The Oxo Tot wipes dispenser - you press a button to open the lid, and there’s a weighted piece with a hole in it so you can pull out one wipe and the other wipes are weighed down and don’t come with it. I don’t think there’s a...

@ladyghosthunter I can’t give you career advice, but in regards to having 4-5 children, have you thought about what age gaps between children you’d be willing to have? Or how old you’d want to be when you have your last child? I want a large family too so we did a bit of planning to figure out...

@ridley12 It happened to my friend as well, right in the last 5-6 weeks of pregnancy. She was told the whole time she would need a C-section but ended up giving birth vaginally. Don’t get your hopes up too high, but don’t lose hope altogether ❤️

@razman10 Happened to me too kinda. We conceived on cycle 2 the first time - second baby took 6 cycles. We weren’t trying to aim for a specific month or anything, but I didn’t expect it to take so much longer the second time around.

@tamarav Re-read your comment to notice a hilarious typo 😂

@lightofislam The at home fertility tests are not super accurate from what I’ve heard. I wouldn’t put too much stock into them. That being said, at your ages it’s probably worth trying within the next year. When you consider the time it takes to conceive plus ~9 months of pregnancy, you’d...

@veganhippie That sounds like a good plan! A lot can change in the next few years so hopefully everything aligns so that you can start earlier! Also it wasn’t really clear from the timeline I gave but it took 6 cycles to conceive my second kid! Totally normal in terms of fertility but...

@veganhippie I guess it depends WHEN in your 30s you plan to start and how important a large family is to you. If you’re planning to try right at 30 then you’ll probably have time to have all the kids you want. If you start around 33-34 you’re pushing it a little, especially if it takes a while...

@neophyte365 I’m sure you’re probably aware of this but even suggesting polyamory to your husband might nuke your marriage. All this potential planning is assuming he’s open to it. He might be offended and upset at the suggestion, or he might say he’s not okay with it but then get really...
