I think you should have a serious conversation with your man as soon as mommy dearest leaves, as it is completely unacceptable for you to be treated that way. He needs to defend you and not stand by and let you be treated like that, and if he isn't willing to do that i would really recommend seriously thinking about…

This guy is sexually harassing you, and sounds like bad news in general. Shut down all the flirting, be business-only with him, if he makes ONE inappropriate move, tell him to stop it and report it to your boss.

Ugh, honestly my advice would be to get out because everyone I've ever known who lied like that was unchangeable. It's a serious character flaw and to me makes it really hard to trust someone. I feel like if someone is willing to lie about stupid stuff that doesn't even benefit them in any meaningful way, they won't…

Oh, no, what if you went to Target? She'd never find you again!

I used a tampon for the first time when I was twelve. I wasn't going to miss a trip to the water slides just because I had my first period. No way. I just followed the directions I found inside my mom's box of Tampax. As I recall, they instructed me to stand and put one foot up on the toilet lid, so I did that.…

All the women in my family started super early, like at 8 years old. So I got the talk and pad demo around that time. Well, freaky deaky me didn't get her first period until age 14. So, I had forgotten some of the finer points. Like the fact that you are supposed to put the adhesive side of the pad in your underwear.…

Mine was just humourous. I of course had my first period at my father's house (split time half and half), and it was literally night one of my week with him, and I remember having cramps and not knowing what was going on. It's 11pm (and I'm what - 11, 12?) so when I get up my dad can hear me around upstairs and is…

My parents tried to be all body positive, which I appreciate in hindsight but UGH.

They look AMAZING!

Like a rat king!

I just can't imagine, having a young creature, completely dependent on you, loving you, and you take that love and slowly, intentionally torture him to death. With him not knowing, still thinking that you'll do anything for him, because he's your baby.

I'm 26 and still get asked these questions.

and "are you using drugs? are you sexually active?", which are both medically relevant questions.

I think the photo of them is beautiful, but that wall looks like moldy cauliflower to me.

"Presumably he'll just throw a check addressed to Poseidon off the side of his giant yacht..."

I recently had an ultrasound to locate my migrating IUD and I was SO NERVOUS that when they did they ultrasound they were gonna be like, Oh! Surprise! There is actually a fetus in there! Luckily, that was not the case. Although they did find a surprise cyst :/

I have freaked out coworkers in meetings - just by sitting there and they peek at my belly. It looks like it's boiling or something.

Yeah, all the "I didn't know I was pregnant" stories I hear usually involve teeny babies around 3-4 pounds, which is more understandable... but Jesus Christ, you don't notice a 9 pound baby?? That's 3 pounds larger than I was at birth, and I was overdue.

My youngest son was born at thirty five weeks and weighed 10lbs 10oz. He spent two weeks in the NICU anyway. I had preeclampsia and gestational diabetes. My guess would be she had undiagnosed gestational diabetes.
