don't care. I'm a millennials and honestly I've only ever noticed older women caring about this. I think my generation is far more open minded to age differences. I have a friend who married a guy 16 year older, a friend who married a guy 23 years older, many friends who married guys 8-10 year older, etc. I dated guys 10-20 years older in the past but ended up marrying a guy my own age.

+1. I'm 29 and think large age gap marriages are becoming more common since guys under 30 have too much debt to want to marry so girls have to look to older men if they want to have kids while they are young enough to still have viable eggs left. Guys under 35 just don't want to get married since they often have 100k in college debt. Only the rich ones want to marry. Lucky for me I found a rich 26 year old, but many of my middle class girlfriend married much older guys who were ready to support a family. I see this trend continuing for as long as college tuition prices are insanely high. It will create a generation of early widows in 50 years but then I suppose they could just remarry younger guys maybe [ Reply | More ]

We were going to venmo 100 but then the friend emailed us (and everyone) that it was 85 each. This isn't/wasn't a dinner , it was an invite to a bar. Then we found out after the fact that there was a minimum bar tab so the birthday boy paid then asked everyone for money after. I don't want to be cheap but this seems absurd.

op: Why do you get to decide what matters? I'm the one who posted the question so clearly I think it matters. We are TTC now and I would like to breastfeed, but I am sort of a wimp when it comes to pain. I have to take advil every time I start my period. I don't know if period cramps are at all related to pain tolerance when breastfeeding, but I don't really know what else to compare it to. If you have nothing helpful to add, then you can feel free to leave the thread. UB isn't your own personal website, and I have just as much of a right to be here as you do, so you go away troll.

Because it is extremely challenging for some people, because some people prefer the freedom of a bottle, etc [ Reply | More ]

op: when you say hurts and then it doesn't do you mean like hurts for the first few weeks and then it's easy sailing from then on out or you mean like hurts at the beginning of every feeding? and are there moms who think of it as sexual? I thought it was just creepy guys who thought of it that way. [ Reply | More ]

It hurts at first, while your nipples get used to it. Like A LOT. At least it did for me. After that, it feels satisfying because you can feel your breasts (which are hard when filled with milk) get softer as db eats. [ Reply | More ]

op: so sort of like the relief you feel after you really need to take a poop and then you do? like feeling "lighter" so to speak? (and also I'm sure feeling glad the baby is eating and getting nutrients) [ Reply | More ]

Felt a little like suction to me. But I felt more suction when pumping than when nursing. With my first, there was never any pain. With my second, I experienced cramping when nursing for the first few days. [ Reply | More ]

Yes. My understanding is that nursing helps your uterus contract. It was cramps on steroids. [ Reply | More ]

op: yikes. good to know. I wonder if being on the minipill would solve this issue. I've read that it's okay to take the progestin only mini pill while breastfeeding, just not the regular birth control pill. [ Reply | More ]

BFing after birth produces oxytocin. The oxytocin helps with 1) bonding 2) causing uterine contractions to shrink the uterus back to pre-pregnancy size. Normal. Minipill wouldn't do anything and you wouldn't be taking it that soon after birth anyway. Motherhood hurts, no way around it. - np [ Reply | More ]

You don't want to stop it. The contractions are what get all the last of the gunk out of you and what help to shrink your uterus back to its original size. It is more painful for some than others but necessary in either case. [ Reply | More ]

Same here. I never, ever, had menstrual cramps, but after the first child, the other two produced a LOT of cramping for the first few days to a week. [ Reply | More ]
