Periods & holidays

I don’t travel but plan to start soon with my husband and kids.

The thing that I wonder about is how women can enjoy holidays with their period? I guess if you’re super regular maybe you could schedule holidays to avoid that date? Or you don’t care if you get your period? Or you’re on bc that stops your period?

I don’t use any hormonal bc, only copper iud. I have taken the period delay tablets 1 time last year for a short trip and it made me soooo moody! I have irregular cycles so I would not ever be able to schedule a holiday around my period. But if I was in the week prior to my period or the week of my period on holiday, it would ruin it for me completely.

That sounds dramatic, but I’m serious. What do you do?

I’ve never let a period stop me travelling and having fun. I just pack supplies and see what happens. My periods are mid flow and regular but they’ve never been an issue.

Has anyone purchased any of the following keepsakes? What are your thoughts? In particular, I want to hear about the options that dads have really liked or appreciated.

Would only getting a child a couple gifts from us be enough for a birthday?

Would love to get more but unfortunately I can’t afford much and I have family who will be getting him some bigger gifts anyway.
But the pressure from seeing other families get their kids a huge pile makes me feel guilty. Money is already tight and I wished I could get all the ideas I have.

I think I messed my life up🥺.

Please don’t judge guys… I’ve been with this person for 3 years now. When we first met he lied about everything . How many kids he have ( he told me 2 but has 7 ) also his living situation. He told me he lost his place when he did 5 years in jail and is renting a room at his aunts which he took me over there MULTIPLE times.. i eventually found out it’s his babymothers house… it’s just so much I can go on and on but I don’t want to wrap you guys up about it. Now im currently 24 weeks pregnant by him. When I first found out I told him right away I did not want to keep it I wanted an abortion it’s dumb to me to have a child with a man that still stays with his babymother.. he promised me we would move we went apartment hunting and everything but here we are now still have not moved… im getting nervous I feel like time is moving fast . Also the babymom found out I was pregnant like a month ago . I don’t know if he lied his way out if that or told her the truth at this point especially because he lied so much about the kids in the beginning and before she “found out” he was over my house literally every night now he barely comes. Im really sad I feel like I should have went with my instinct and not kept the baby. I don’t have space to bring him home with me. I was literally in my party era of life since my 3 year old is potty trained and talking so I was comfortable sending him to family members while I went out now im stuck all over again because I THOUGHT I was settling down to build a family not be a second life to him….
