Our unexpected bundle of joy turned out to be the missing piece for our family. But I really struggled to come to terms with our unplanned pregnancy, which happened while using Phexxi.

@clhubes Could you recycle the wood and turn it into a new piece of furniture? We were contemplating that because no one wanted to purchase my solid wood china cabinet. I didn’t want to part with it but no longer have the space.

@clhubes I told my husband after we become empty nesters, we are GOING on a Viking cruise 😂

@Caroline_Marie_ I have (and probably will always have) a round face. 🙄 I hated it as a teen but at 33, I’ve accepted it. I’ve lost weight to be healthier and to keep up with my kids. And guess what? I still have a round face 😂

@MarijanaKay I have been wondering if I have ADHD. I feel like since having kids, I’ve struggled with emotional regulation. But even worse, I’ve lost my motivation for writing which is really the only thing that bought me peace.

@thedigitalyenta I write about lifestyle, parenting, and health.

@conz It’s ridiculous. Husband got like 5 days with our first in 2017 and then 10 with our second in 2021.

[Gillan Ritchie @mg_ritchie]

@conz They look amazing. Crocs used to put out ballet flats that I loved, not sure if they still do.

[Gillan Ritchie @mg_ritchie]

@MightyFineCopy_ Healthcare and parenting, please!

[Gillan Ritchie @mg_ritchie]

Let’s make this happen at more companies.

Dear Freelance Twitter 🗣 Inverse somehow has unspent budget for 2022 so please pitch me ambitious features about TV, Movies, Gaming, Science, and Tech. I can pay $1000 for deeply reported and original features (and less $ for less ambitious work). Email: [email protected]

@conz I actually have to alternate brands every few months. Right now, I am doing Schmidts.

[Gillan Ritchie @mg_ritchie]

@kaitarford Oh and my email is [email protected]

@conz What is this bs?

@YvonneLiuWriter @CMulliganWalsh @LeibovSarah @pauletteperhach @amieparnes @jiordancastle @mskerrygraham @JPostWhite @WeissGoldsteins @jenfreymond @HuffPost My piece focuses on the need for more inclusive resources for new parents (not just mamas). Let’s help everyone out and not forget all those kick ass dads.

I went out to lunch with my mom & grandma. Little did I know that my husband and 5-year-old son were baking a surprise birthday cake for me. I walk through the door and dear son says:

“mommy, your cake is almost ready!” 😂🤦🏼‍♀️

Life of a parent.

@laurkrouse @Meta Seriously!?

[Gillan Ritchie @mg_ritchie]

@conz Yes!
