Miscarriage
TRIGGER WARNING BLOOD AND MENTION OF MISCARRIAGE!!!!!! IF EITHER BOTHERS YOU PLEASE MOVE ON. So I am almost 5 months postpartum I am on the depo shot I haven't had a period since starting it. This morning I woke up in severe pain and bleeding fairly heavy. I felt like I was being stabbed in my lower stomach and pelvic area. I am on birth control and I know it's not 100% effective but I felt the need to push something out and something in fact came out. Everyone I asked says it looks like a miscarriage, Google image says a miscarriage as well. I just don't want that to be the case. I'll add the photo in the comments considering it is graphic but I would like others opinions.

Activities for kids
so I don’t believe in electronics before school.My child is five years old in kindergarten and I feel like if we have extra time in the mornings then he can read a book he can play with a toy, he can talk to me. I don’t believe in because we have extra time, sit on the game or Sit on the TV or sit on the tablet. So it’s a rule in my house no electronics before school.
so we go to the drop off line at school this morning and when we get to the line he’s like the fifth student, and all four students in front of him are on the phone playing Roblox together, and he said mommy I wanna play Roblox and I’m like hey you know we don’t play electronics before school. And he was like, but they’re doing it. As hard as it was I stood my ground with a no electronics before school, just off the strength of he justified him playing before school with “but they are doing it”
I felt like it was a very teachable moment to say just because you see other people doing it doesn’t mean you do it too.
I feel so sad but I wanted it to be a teachable moment for him and I feel like he got the message.
We were about 15 minutes early before the doors open and he stood there for about 15 minutes and we just talked or whatever but all his friends in front of him were playing Roblox and I keep seeing him look for the corner of his eye at their phones. And I feel a little bit sad now like did I make the right decision was there another time that I could’ve taught this lesson? Should I have just let him play with them?

Baby milestones
I know this probably sounds like a silly question but I’m just curious. Does your five-year-old still cry?? and I don’t mean just normal crying like of course they still cry they’re human.
My five-year-old still open mouth as wide as he can throw his head back and cries like he did when he was one and two years old. I don’t know it just looks like a baby cry and I’m just wondering do they grow out of that or is that just the way he cries?
I know it sounds like a crazy question, but I’m just curious like when your child cries is it more like a silent cry is it a tantrum cry? Does your 5 yr old still cry the same way that they cried when they were babies?
Will his cry change from a baby cry(head back mouth wide open crying) to a more mature cry ? Lol

How often are you updated about your child by their teacher, in kindergarten??
I get no pictures or anything from my child’s teacher. I send my child into the building with a teacher at 730am and I don’t hear anything about him til I pick him up at 3pm. At 3pm I can ask the teacher how was his day, but it’s brief and pretty much the same answer “he had a good day.”
This is COMPLETELY different from what I’m used to in preschool. I know it’s gonna be a difference but I for sure was not expecting it to be this different.
I do ask my child how his day was and what he did in his day, but it’s hard to get a solid answer out of my freshly 5 yr old. One day he tells me he ate then I’ll ask him again 2 hrs later and he says he didn’t eat at school, so idk what his day looks like.
It would be nice to have the teacher update me throughout the day, but am I asking for too much? It is kindergarten, are they only relying on the children to report about their day??!?
I’ve mentioned it to his teacher before and she said she understands and will try to send pics throughout the day, that was 3 school days ago and I still haven’t received a picture or anything.
She told me he’s great at school and will reach out if she needs me. But my thing is why should you only reach out if something is wrong? Can I not get a positive update of my child throughout the day ?
I know he’s growing up and things may be different than preschool but I don’t like the feeling of leaving my 5 yr old with all complete strangers for 8hrs a day and not hearing ANYTHING throughout the day.
Does the teachers at your child’s school communicate ??
