To be fair, there are plenty of people “just looking for my Christian Grey”, too.

My boyfriend bought a fucking TV without consulting me and we had a big fight over it. I think if he bought us a house I’d leave him.

I need to watch this. Also you should have a career writing recaps.

Just to pile in: he needs to get the fuck out immediately. I would not provide for a lazy ass badmouthing piece of shit. If she can’t afford daycare then I’d arrange to drop off and pick up the daughter wherever this dude ends up living, but I would not tolerate him living in my fucking house.

If you’re already late then you can take a pee test. For me pregnancy felt different than regular PMS (I was peeing more, my breasts hurt and I felt nauseous halfway through my lunches, even if eating my favourite food) but it can be different for everybody. I hope you get the results you are expecting!

The price here in Chile is around $350 for the Mirena, but that’s about half my rent and more than I spend on groceries in a month. I could do it if I weren’t spending a lot of money going to and from the hospital, but I guess whenever Catalina is home I’ll get it. Regular BC is cheaper (maybe $20 a month) but my…

She’s newborn sized now!

I live abroad, so only option for me is to buy it :(

Thanks! It so happens that my obgyn is one of the best pelvic floor specialists in the country (another doctor thought he was number one) so I know I’d be in good hands. I think I want to go over this with my therapist first and then I’ll go to the doctor.

Thanks for this story! I wish for my daughter the most normal life she can have in the future. She was 11.8 inches at birth and is now normal newborn sized. I’m glad you made it through!!

Thank you, this is my favourite response so far. I guess we need each other in different ways right now and should find a way to meet in the middle. He’s a great guy in general, and I love him very much.

He is Catalina’s father. I promise he’s not a total shitbag (lol in hindsight I should’ve mentioned that earlier) but I guess he craves intimacy/sex because this has been hard for him, too, maybe even harder in some aspects (as I have a harder time in some others). We’ve talked about it and he frames it as needing…

Right now I’m not on anything - doctor suggested a Mirena but I can’t afford it just yet. I do think being off BC could have something to do with it because I’ve never been without it before.

Emergency c-section for me! My belly hurts a little still. I plan on making an appointment with my obgyn so he can confirm or discard anything going on physically with me.

My baby is still in the hospital so I’m not yet caring for her full time (I’ve changed her diaper a couple times, but I mostly help by holding her whenever possible). He does the same I can right now - I can’t say anything bad at all about his parenting. I know he’s also tired and overwhelmed but we approach the sex…

I live abroad, so we don’t have anything like that :) but my house is 15 minutes away, so it’s not that bad. I usually visit her for about 3-4 hours every day.

Gorgeous! Still in the hospital with chronic lung disease, but she’s lovely.

Topic: possible vaginismus and sexual trouble with my guy. TMI of course, but I read a thread about this sometime this week so I thought you guys could help.

My sex drive died sometime in the past four months so I think I’ll just get takeout chicken and eat it in front of the TV with my mister.
