  • @lunagrl79 amen sister. It takes a strong women to stand up for yourself and an admirable woman who does it to provide a better environment for your child. My favorite quotation for challenging times that has always helped me through was... "One day at a time". God will never give you more than you can handle and we're all here for you :) 
  • @lunagrl79 I'm so proud of you for getting out of an unhealthy relationship!  I know that even if you're hearing from family and friends (or your bumpies) that it isn't a good situation, that doesn't make it easy to see or change for yourself.  You should be proud of yourself and continue to remind yourself of what a smart choice you're making (write it down?) buy also be forgiving of yourself if you're missing him too. Just know that even if you do have those mixed feelings it doesn't ever mean you should put yourself back in that situation!

    I still remember sharing your story about the aggressive driver to DH and how upset we were on your behalf. You should have a partner there to comfort and support you, whether for a real scary situation (like with that crazy driver!) or the situations that feel scary and a big deal to you personally, even if they aren't always logically scary (like some of our sillier pregnancy worries). I know that you will find that guy someday who is really there for you!

    And be until then, keep building that support system for yourself in friends and family. Keep asking for help, and make sure you give them specific ways that they can support you. I know if I was nearby I would jump on any opportunity to support you with this baby and to support you so that you knew you can do this without him! 

    Congrats, and creepy internet hugs to you!
  • @vikinggirl12 you are amazing. That's all. 

    @lunagrl79 sending thoughts and prayers your way! Kudos to you. Stay strong.

  • @lunagrl79 - I admire your strength and can tell that you totally got this! I love your positive attitude and wish you all the luck as you work through the stressors. Hugs!
  • @lunagrl79 -  a book that helped me get through and finally end a relationship with an abusive ex (and it was more verbal as well) was co-dependent no more.   It's meant to be part of an AA program, but it has some really strong points that we all can benefit from! 
  • @lunagirl79 I am super proud of you! It's probably going to hurt for a while but this is going to be so good for you and baby. Stay strong!

    That took an impressive amount of strength to leave @lunagrl79, and for that you should be proud. You've done the right thing for you and your baby. Well done, mama.

    To anyone that is wondering what shoes I got for comfort...

    I got Sketchers Memory Foam black flats (heaven) and Sanuk Yoga Flip Flops (comfort TBD soon) to bring on my vacation.  Step 2: invest in Tieks.... but before I do, I will wait until closer to baby is born to see if my foot size changes at all.  Step 3: Get a pair of Sperrys asap and be on the look out for a good Sperry sale since I know those happen.

    PS: Are Tieks only sold online?  Or are they sold in department stores?
    Only online but they have awesome return policy. Highly recommend avoiding the ones with fancy prints. They just don't last as the leather stretches.

  • Speaking of diabetes, Toronto mayor Rob Ford died. I am irrationally annoyed at how many people are all sad about it. He was a crack-smoking drunk-driving a-hole.

    He was a total ass. I hadn't heard he died. 
  • @lunagrl79  good for you for getting out of a bad relationship. Have you tried looking into government programs like WIC and CHIP, and later on, children's Medicaid? Those might help too, with all the upcoming expenses. Good luck!

    @alysemciver sorry you didn't pass! At least it should clear up after LO gets here. :)

    Yeah, I'm so confused by the reactions. Like, really? Sorry, I don't care.
  • @CourtJack I get ALL of that.  But I still get sad when people die because typically SOMEONE loved them and is left behind to grieve.  :/

    Yah, I understand that his family is sad. But, the way everyone is talking it's as if he was some great person. He wasn't.


  • @lunagrl79 Your strength is absolutely admirable, and what a great role model you are for your baby girl!  Some days will be harder than others, but you are strong and can do this!  Sending prayers your way!
