Picked up some Intim Plus. $20.

The downside... 😢

God, I'm actually terrified..

Yeah, you've got a point. I'll just hold out until tomorrow morning—because if the results come back negative, I’m definitely going to be sitting there thinking, "Hmm, maybe the hormone dosage wasn't quite enough..."

Here’s another silly question for you guys:
Do you think if I wait until tomorrow afternoon—say around 3 or 4 PM—to take the test, it’ll still pick up my hormone levels? I can grab the kit in the morning, but I just can't hold out until the following morning.

I don't know, I really thought I could hang in there, but the mental pressure is just getting to be too much. It's all up here in my head.
Man...

Just like most kids—they don't really have a choice.. ☕

I can't take this anymore. I went to grab a test only to realize it was already ten to eight at night... so now I have to wait until tomorrow. But there's no way I can sit around waiting for the morning shift either—fingers crossed there's a decent afternoon one available.

..so what kind of person are you if you actually hate someone..? 🤣

🙂

I'm getting way too off-topic here,
but back to the point—chatting with you guys makes everything feel much more chill.. yeah, exactly..
Honestly, I’m almost hesitant to buy a test—if it comes back negative, I won't have any reason to bug you all.. 🙂:

but honestly, that’s still my favorite way to crack a window open...😍

Wait, you actually talked her into it?!?! 🙂

Dana Cooper6 said:Joshua Clark, I think you just had a heavy cycle... My cramps always linger for a few days after my period ends too... And honestly, any bleeding while using pads counts as menstruation, regardless of how it looks...

😘

Man, if people actually bothered to read everything... 😘
So, here's the deal—during my last pregnancy, I dealt with two instances of spotting. It wasn't even the pain that bothered me—honestly, there wasn't any—it was just the timing. The bleeding stopped ages ago, but they haven't cleared me yet. Usually, they’d have given the all-clear by now, but they're still dragging their feet.
It was the exact same symptom back in the previous one.

No, I’m not going to dwell on it. Once I find out the truth, I’ll probably be a nervous wreck for the rest of the pregnancy—and beyond. For now, I'm giving myself at least another month of "peaceful ignorance"—mostly just to mentally prep for whatever might come next.

yeah, sure—just so they can mess with me...

jadegull6 said:Come on now—I know plenty of "well-known" women out there who manage to navigate life quite successfully as single moms doing it all themselves... so why couldn't you be even more successful than they are? Besides, from what I can tell, you seem much more self-aware, independent, and frankly, a better person overall...

I really appreciate everything you said, but let’s be real...
those famous people built an audience first and then had kids—or they had someone backing them up. Me?
I have nothing.
My kid needs to eat. I can barely afford to keep this one fed, so how am I supposed to manage anything else?!
To actually hold down a job, you need someone to watch the kid when they're sick (and trust me, they're sick constantly).
Right now, I'm just living on $100 welfare and that's it.
If I qualified for anything else, I'd probably get another $300.
But with that amount? I can barely scrape by, let alone finish my degree.

So, whatever happened with that guy you two were staying with? Did he get cold feet or something?
If I recall correctly, you always wanted this—to have another little one, regardless of whether the older kid would be by your side or not, right? 😕

I'd rather keep this private.. 😘

placidjackal14 said:Fair enough... maybe I've felt a bit of that myself at some point, but honestly, I was just trying to be nice and cheer you up a little...😘 😉

Sorry, I totally overreacted. My bad. I know your heart was in the right place.

placidjackal14 said:Adoina, God forbid things get any worse... seriously, believe me, there are people out there dealing with way more misery than single moms—people facing serious illnesses or watching their kids struggle with health issues... even if you happen to be pregnant right now, trust me, it’s not the end of the world. As long as the kids come out healthy and strong, everything else will just sort itself out eventually...
😘

Oh, please... you really don't know what you're talking about. I get that you mean well, truly, but... you don't know the whole story.

I honestly have no clue how to work this thing.

Visak says I’m not pregnant..

Not a single test available?!?!?!
That kind of luck only happens to you... and honestly, me too.. 😍

I haven't picked up a test yet..
Anything new? Well, no bleeding.. my breasts.. (hold on, let me check) they're still bigger than before..
To be honest.. I'm avoiding the test because.. I'm terrified that if it's positive, everything I've already been through starts all over again—and I am seriously scared of that. I want at least one more month to just... exist. If I'm pregnant, I'll know eventually without needing a plastic stick, but by then I want to have my head straight and find some actual courage (since I'm obsessing over this 24/7). If I'm not, then I'm not.
I don't know.. if I am pregnant, I have nine months to figure out how to be a single mom to two kids. So.. I'm giving myself a little grace period. Just in case.
And if I'm not.. then I'm staying celibate until the wedding 😍 😍
And if I never get married.. THEN YOU ALL ARE GOING TO BE READING SOME VERY FRUSTRATED POSTS 🤣

Thanks for asking

I'm telling you, if I were the maid of honor, I would've bought that silver coin, the lace detail, and the white gold pendant—plus, I’d be making the cake (😍) and bringing flowers.
