Would you judge?

Your children's elementary school has a parent's-only fundraiser evening. The local rec center is rented out with a full bar and dancing towards the end of the night. Everyone is enjoying themselves and their drinks, but a group of Mom's gets noticeably more intoxicated. Their husbands don't seem to mind and they weren't inappropriate but their laughter throughout the auction was a bit distracting. Curious if it's the place to let loose with friends or expected to be a bit more socially aware?

My son’s school has a fundraising gala every year. Most people let loose and have fun. I wouldn’t think anything of it besides that they’re having fun 🤷🏼‍♀️

Sounds like a good time tbh

It was me! 😂 my girls and I had the best time but I do think we were on another level than the majority. I made a few new friends but noticed some were avoiding us towards the end of the night and at drop off this week, the same few weren't even making eye contact and I never anticipated that having the best time would result in judgment

Theyre at an adult event, fundraising, drinking with other adults. Theyre not being inappropriate, just laughing...thats expected with alcohol being served.

Sounds like they got the night off with their kids and sometimes did their other mom friends and they're having a time. Would iiii get tipsy at an event for my kids school? No. Is it because I think its inappropriate? No. I wouldn't because I know how judgey other parents, especially mothers, can be and so id just avoid it and save my tipsy laughter for when im amongst friends.

I don’t judge anyone personally. Everyone deserves to have fun whatever that might entail as long as nobody is being hurt

Leaking waters?

I’m 35 weeks today wooo but… every morning for the past two weeks I’ve woken up with a palm sized water mark in my pants! - no smell, no pain and unaware of it happening…

I thought it might be leaking waters so got it checked out but the midwife said it was might be urine/watery discharge! - but it’s still happening.. thoughts? 💭🫶🏻

Pelvic girdle pain and birth

I have been experiencing awful pain. More so recently. I'm now using crutches to get around but it's more painful at night and when I lay down or sit down. I'm worried about birthing. I've got other issues and baby boy is estimating 8pounds at 36 weeks. I've been booked in for an induction 9 days prior to my due date. Surely he's going to be even bigger and I just don't feel like I've had any birth discussions in detail really. Ive only seen midwife twice and each time I've seen a consultant it's someone different. Has anyone else experienced awful pelvic pain and birthed a big baby?

Upcoming C-section.

So I’ve decided to go for an elective C-section, I know it’s the right choice after months of deliberating but I’m soooooo nervous.

I’ve had 2 very complicated births. I kinda know what to expect from the recovery as I had an emergency section with my first but I just feel nervous about being awake during it & what it feels like.. I’ve heard they strap your arms down and I’m scared of something going wrong.

I know every experience is different but if you’re happy to share what your elective was like for you (good and bad) id be very grateful. I feel really unprepared!

C-section infection

Anyone with c-section infection experience?
I’m 9 weeks pp and I’ve been battling an infection on the left hand side of the wound for 4 weeks. Now that I managed to get that side better, the other half suddenly started oozing.
I’ve been on 3 rounds of antibiotics, I’m pretty sure they are giving my baby reflux. What the hell I’m supposed to do??!! 😭
