I’m not a very good home-maker but I’m an excellent joke-maker.

*married* ☺️

12 weeks pregnant: I’m going to be a pleasant, happy pregnant woman. I am master of my hormones and discomfort. My husband’s friends will be jealous of my pleasantness.

39 weeks pregnant: I swear to god, how many times have I asked you NOT to cough like that!?

We bought my dad a “Dad Joke of the Day” book for Father’s Day and now every evening without fail he texts the family group chat with all of us kids with a new dad joke. I find myself waiting for the joke every night. Dads, you’re important.

My heart is broken💔: As friends & family know, my wife was pregnant with our 2nd child, & about to begin her 2nd trimester. A few days ago she had severe pains, & bleeding, and had to go to the emergency room. There, it was discovered that our baby no longer had a heartbeat. Devastated doesn't come close to what that feels like.
Unfortunately for people like us, because of the current laws in the state of Texas, that was only the beginning of this nightmare. Jess (my wife) had an "incomplete miscarriage", and what needed to happen, what was best for HER, and her health, was to terminate the pregnancy, and get the baby out.
The doctor gave her a medication that would move this process along, and sent her home. Where, apparently we would be handling it ourselves. We were told it might take a couple of attempts before it worked.
I'll let you decide how you feel about that.
After a long, painful night of the equivalent of early labor, the baby was still with her. So, we went back to the Emergency Center to get the 2nd dose. A new doctor was on call. He was an older man. You could hear him in the hallway as he said, "I'm not giving her a pill so she can go home and have an ab*rtion!". Being well aware that our baby no longer had a heartbeat. Then, he came into the room to say, and I quote: "Considering the current stance. I'm not going to prescribe you this pill". Then, just sent us on our way.
The "CURRENT STANCE"?! Did he really just say that?!
No one should ever have to hear their wife say: "Get this dead baby out of me!".
Can you even imagine how that must feel?
The pain, and the bleeding continued. So, we decided to go to another hospital, about an hour away. There was a female doctor on call there, and we thought we might have better luck.
I should probably mention, the procedure to get the baby out is called a D & C. It's scary, & traumatizing, but sometimes necessary in situations like ours. Especially in emergency circumstances.
So we get to the next hospital. They take Jess in, ask her a bunch of questions, do a new scan... confirm that the baby is still there, with no heartbeat, and then disappear... for hours. Only to come back in and keep asking the same questions over and over. It's becoming clear that they're primary concern is NOT my wife's health. Instead, they seem to be worried about the legalities involved.
So, they decide it is not "enough of an emergency" to perform the D & C.
They do, however, prescribe another, stronger, final dose of the medication for us to try again... at home.
So, we go home to try again. Another long day/night of early labor pains. Only to discover my wife UNCONSCIOUS in the bathroom. Having to pick my wife's cold, limp body off of that bathroom floor, not sure if I was about to lose her, is something I will NEVER forget.
She had to be rushed to the hospital.
By this point she had lost so much blood, and bodily fluid, her body gave out.
They were able to stabilize her, give her the fluids she needed, and we came back home yesterday afternoon. We were also able to confirm that our baby was no longer with her.
Now, not only do we have to live with the loss of our baby... we have to live with the nightmare of what we just experienced because of political and religious beliefs. MY WIFE'S HEALTH SHOULD HAVE COME FIRST. PERIOD!
God knows what mental and emotional damage this has done.
If you consider yourself a staunch "pro-lifer" ... 1) You've never been through what we just went through, and 2) You should take a long, hard look in the mirror and reevaluate your reasons for supporting such a cold, barbaric, ignorant point of view.
It's not that black & white, and it's never going to be.
If you think your "Pray To End Ab*rtion" sign in your yard is "Christian", I suggest you revisit the teachings of Jesus and try again. If you support these laws that make ab*rtion illegal, and result in people being put through what we just were, you should be ashamed of yourself. I've never been so angry, or heartbroken... and the devastation I'm feeling must pale in comparison to what my poor wife is feeling.

I’m going to have house guests next week and I really don’t think I have debilitating adhd but quick question, should I:

1.) clean and declutter the house

Or

2.) paint a mural on the ceiling of my porch of the night sky

I think my favorite part of being in my thirties is walking into the doctor thinking my pain is surely an emergency and walking out with a printout sheet of genetic stretches.

[Momarazzi. @Mirimade]

@Megatronic13 This is getting embarrassing.

[Momarazzi. @Mirimade]

Little kids are so good at making friends. We’ve been at McDonald’s for 10 minutes and my 5-year-old already has a ride or die girl gang.

[Momarazzi. @Mirimade]

@Megatronic13 He’s the best haha

[Momarazzi. @Mirimade]

My mom went to the emergency room in a lot of pain and we were all worried. My dad let us know that she was okay and it was just a kidney stone by texting the family chat, “This too shall pass.”

I just know my mom laughed in her little hospital bed.

[Momarazzi. @Mirimade]

When my daughters are grown up and out on their own, I hope they’ll reach out to me in their time of need because they know that within a few hours, I’ll be on their doorstep. Just like my mom.

Regarding modesty, the teaching from Jesus is, “if you lust, gouge your eye out.”

It’s not, “if you lust, tell women to dress differently.”

I gifted my nephew an AirZooka for Christmas. I’ll see you all in hell.

[Momarazzi. @Mirimade]

@delldweller @OMGitsagirl2015 @RivalGTR He has so much concern

[Momarazzi. @Mirimade]

No one:

Absolutely no one:

My husband: (pulling out measuring tape) I’m gonna go measure the snow.

[Momarazzi. @Mirimade]

@notman88 @RivalGTR Me: 🤷🏼‍♀️

[Momarazzi. @Mirimade]

@redfightr1 @RivalGTR I’m sure that’s what he was hoping for. 😂

[Momarazzi. @Mirimade]

@glenn_enoch @RivalGTR Haha you gotta know!

[Momarazzi. @Mirimade]

@JoshWeber2 @RivalGTR I’ve been wondering if this is a universal dude experience lol

[Jennifer Gunter @DrJenGunter]

I delivered at 22 weeks into a toilet. It is panic. Absolute panic. My body told me it was a bowel movement. I was in a hospital and an OB/GYN and all I could do was scream. The fetus is very small. I can see someone doing this. It's not abusing a corpse. FFS

[Sassparilla @Megatronic13]

I feel like a wizard. I made these mushroom ornaments primarily out of cotton balls and tin foil. I love this craft because even if you’re low on money, you can do this craft with items a lot of us already have on hand or can buy at the dollar store.

[Momarazzi. @Mirimade]

@davidhatched Yessss!

[Momarazzi. @Mirimade]

Happy Halloween from me and my deflated Jack-o-lantern, show me your costumes!
