Told my mother the best travel purchase I've made was a fire stick... Her response was "are you really that single?" 😑

I recently got married and we’ve been trying to have a baby for the past 3 months because we’re both eager to have kids. I feel like we’re not having sex (2or so a week) enough to catch the ovulation windows. We work a lot and sometimes we’re not in the mood for sex after a long day. I’m 27 and all I’ve ever wanted to be was a mom and now I feel like it’s starting to happen but I feel like work is getting in the way. Anyone else feel/felt this when trying or am I just overthinking it all?

Just heard that my district will have classroom and live-recording learning. I’m thankful because I now can feed my family, my newborn and a recent-sponsored wife!

Suppose you are 3 months pregnant and interviewing for a job. Would you disclose to the recruiter that you are expecting or is there no need to give that information until after being hired? As for the compensation, if you’ve already been told pre-interview, the salary range for the role, is it appropriate to negotiate a number for the salary if you are asked your desired salary in the first screening interview? Or should you try to hold off on the negotiation after you receive an offer?

How have you built your tribe of support and friendship as an adult? Can anyone relate?

Calling all males: is acne on a girl a complete turn off?

Not at all work related but I’m wondering when folks moved their babies into their nurseries and out of your own rooms. My daughter is 3 months old and my partner wants to move her to the nursery in a few weeks but I don’t want to. I don’t have a rational reason other than I like being near her and am still waking several times a night to check on her and see that she’s ok. Is there a specific age where it’s recommended or does it not matter?

Tell me if this is selfish or not. I adore my family, but since they're doing a very lowkey Christmas situation this year, I really would rather take a weeks vacation on my own. Obviously the holidays are about spending time with those you love, but I'm tired! And I see my entire family at least once a month for a group dinner. Am I a bad daughter/sister if I choose vacation this one time?
