@vl32 I weaned suddenly (my kiddo self-weaned), although I kept pumping to taper off slowly. I got hit with the sads, for sure. It only lasted about a week but I was super emotional during that time.

@bernard222 It is extremely common for your periods to become light or nonexistent while on the pill. They are not even real periods - they are just withdrawal bleeds during the days when you're on the placebo pills. When the pill was invented doctors decided it would make women feel more...

@bernard222 I'm 27 and he is 33 We have been together 1.5 years. Currently living together in a pre-engaged state (i.e. we are engaged, getting married next summer, but haven't yet done the ring/proposal/announcement bit yet). We are waiting to get married before we start TTC...so excited to...

@bernard222 We are waiting to be married first Personally, I've been waiting forever, lol. I have wanted to be a mom since I was like 5. Realistically, with my FH, we had the "timeline" talk in February so it has been 7 months. (but I was on this sub for a few months before that) We will start...

@momof2napril It’s the opposite. You might not judge your SIL but I’m judging her 😜 The entire world is new to a baby, so they get all their stimulation and sensory stuff from the world around them.

@gregp0072 Totally! When I first moved here, when we went tubing I was like "are there water moccasins in here?" and my friends were like "what's a water moccasin?" hahaha. Nothing here but salmon and stuff. No mosquitoes either! But there are more bears, lol.

@gregp0072 Oohh the good thing is we have plenty of water around here too! People go kayaking and paddleboarding in Lake Union and Lake Washington (in Seattle where I am), and there are several rivers nearby where people go floating in the summers! I have gone river floating at least once a...

@gregp0072 The first couple years I experienced SAD (Seasonal Affective Disorder or something...I wasn't officially diagnosed by a doctor but it's when you get depressed in the winter), because it truly is gray and drizzly from October to April, give or take. But after that I got used to it and...

@gregp0072 Former! Hello!

@lindalee1456 Hahahah. Now I'm dying to know what it is. whispers ...is it Gainesville? You don't have to answer, that's where I grew up though :)

@legatichristi Hi timeline buddy! I'm over here waiting for a proposal too. :)

@hanneliedb What subject do you teach and what kind of librarian is your husband? Those are both career fields I've considered! :)

@beka_mills Ok I need to go find where I read this, but I've been wondering this as well. (DH was sick so we only got O-4 this cycle.) Anyways what I read is that O-1, O-2, O-3 have like 20-30% chance of conception, while O-4 and O have about 10-12% chance. Definitely not awful when you...

@tmur Holy cow, this is SO impressive!! I've never seen anything like it! Well done!

@britebore Omg, so glad your mom is ok! Ugh. Good luck!!

@britebore What I do sometimes is write out exactly what I want to say beforehand, and then I kind of mentally go over it for a day or two, tweaking it...I don't actually read off the paper when I'm with the person but I sort of memorize it haha. It really helps. I'm glad I made you feel better...

@britebore Maybe I'm biased but I think you're being perfectly reasonable feeling that way. This is so tricky because of course you want him to want to TTC as much as you do, but IMO you need to talk to him about how you are feeling, because it's a big deal. Maybe you should bring it up more as...

@britebore About your grandma... firstly, I'm so sorry and I totally feel you. Both of my grannies are in their 70s and have been struggling with cancer over the last few years and I 10000% want them there on my wedding day and when I have a baby. Second, have you confided in your DH about that...
