I failed the 1 hour and passed the 3 hour and did not have gestational diabetes. I did have an almost 11 lb. baby and they made me do the 3 hour test (which is awful) for my 2nd and 3rd pregnancies even though I passed! Passed!! the 1 hour because my big baby was a risk factor. I swear it is all just to cover their…

I had one too. Despite an ultrasound the day before and being told the baby was @ 7-8 lbs, I gave birth to an almost 11 lb baby vaginally. I also had an epidural and thank gawd I did. No issues with healing and I did sitz baths religiously. My next 2 pregnancies I was induced early and still had 9lb babies and did not…

Chobani just did. They donated $47,000 to pay off the delinquent accounts.

The teenage girls are monsters is a complete myth. I have 3 teens now, 2 girls, they are funny, sarcastic, caring, creative and a ton of fun to be around. They both have great friend groups since when they were in elementary school and very little drama. They will be future great leaders and hopefully leave pettiness…

Same! I worked in marketing straight out of college for a luxury cosmetics company and all female leadership. It was a shitshow of manipulation and bullying and by far my worst professional experience. No amount of free makeup could make up for that nonsense...

Mom of 3 teens here and I’ve worked every imaginable combination for *balance* and it does not exist. There is no magic bullet. Someone will have to sacrifice, sadly. Realizing this saved me a lot of resentment and probably my marriage.

The yellow fluffer will be a Buff Orpington, one of my favorite chicken breeds. We have an older one named Nugget and she looks like this

I celebrate Spring with new chicks🐣

When we first moved into our house 20 years ago, it had a clean lines modern look- white marble, white carpets, super sleek and not us at all. But we loved the neighborhood.

Everything happens for a reason. My boyfriend from high school and college was Jewish and told me his mother would never *allow* him to marry a non-Jewish girl (me). His mother also told him he had to be either a doctor or lawyer (he’s a dentist). We broke up after college. I was devastated. I started dating a good…

Please please please don’t be sad. YOU DODGED A BULLET. Calling you now (while married!) is just plain selfish and manipulative.

My Yin and Yang Doggos

I find this obnoxious and I am a mom of 3.

I wear my late mother’s wedding ring and got a matching wedding band to wear with it. It’s not super fancy or big, but has sapphires surrounding it and in the band is is the only piece of jewelry I wear every day.

It was at a biker bar on Folly Beach, SC. We were on a long weekend, a getaway of some of my older sisters (5 of us). We are competitive ladies.

There are students at the elementary school that are not fully vaccinated for REAL medical reasons (one I know of is a cancer survivor) and these preventable diseases could KILL them. One month out of school is an inconvenience that you CHOSE by not vaccinating. Homeschool your kids. You don’t have a right to spread…

Our pediatrician does not accept patients who refuse to vaccinate because he’s an actual doctor. My daughter has a classmate with an active case of chickenpox (parents didn’t vaccinate on the *religious* exemption) and they are FURIOUS that she isn’t being allowed back to school for a month. She is covered in welts…

I have a high school senior. They are very aware. My son actually had childhood absence epilepsy (which he outgrew) and his guidance counselors told him not to drop his IEP because he could get accommodations for testing. We dropped it. He didn’t want to be treated any differently than others or be singled out. He…
