Mother+1 time surrogate ♡
Writer; spiritual encounters from Heaven♡
Night Nanny & Sleep Coach
I give new parents the gift of sleep. Booked throughout March 2025
I talk a lot about my spiritual experiences and my readings with spiritual mediums.
My readings have helped me tremendously with trauma and grief. I've gifted readings to lots of people, including my Mom and sister.
I actually had a reading Friday afternoon. I'll share part of
@SleeplesssInKy
Just an idea...
Type it out and have several copies laminated. Ask if you can leave a few near the cookbook section at her local library.
On the recipe card, you could write, "In memory of (her grandmother's name), please enjoy and carry on the deliciousness."

Oh, but it can be really exciting especially when your toddler sees a "man" aka ghost on your couch in your new rental, then days later you find out the previous tenant did, in fact, die in that living months earlier.

I had 4 very easy pregnancies and no complications with deliveries.
At age 36 (turned 37 during the pregnancy), I became a surrogate for a family who couldn't conceive. The embryo consisted of the mothers egg and fathers sperm. Beautiful, healthy baby girl.
It was an incredible

At the gym or workout studios. Compliment them on their outfit, give a high five or fist bump after a hard class, see if they want to get a smoothie or coffee.
Sounds like it'd work. I've never tried it though lol
@NiceTshimitYou
I'm a white woman with biracial children (2 sons - 2 daughters). From natural curls to blowouts to braids, a compliment is a compliment. When my kids (sons too) want to change their hairstyle, I never think it's an insecurity or ego thing. It's what humans do.
Most women know

Love this tweet! My daughter, 4 at the time, wanted to add blonde hair. I let her pick out the Cinderella costume + wig. While getting ready for bed after trick or treating Hollis said, "I should have just used my own curls."

@TheBaddestMitch
I've had 5 babies (4 biologically mine and 1 as a surrogate). My first was all natural and very painful. The next 4? Epidurals every time.
I know I'm blessed to have easy deliveries (no tearing or complications), never stayed more than 1 night in the hospital, but this doesn't

You can also print out the pictures of his artwork, date it with a brief description, and put it in a scrapbook or photo album.

You both are probably right. Back to school supplies are expensive. If I knew who this person was and they needed help for their kids, I'd gladly send items via Amazon. Sometimes cries for help look like taking risks even with heavy consequences.

No drama here. If I tell my pup to "go sit in baby seat" she does lol
I know she loves this seat because there's usually crumbs or something left behind in a cup holder. So much for no eating in the car.

It's not easy sharing any form of death. I find writing vs. speaking is very helpful. It's therapeutic.
There's a huge community here, not only regarding suicide, but life after death, grief, and spiritual connections with our loved ones.
I'm sorry for your loss, yet happy you
@EM_RESUS
Agreed!! With my 5th delivery, I was a surrogate for a family who couldn't conceive, and the epidural totally numbed my left side. After the anesthesiologist checked me and made a few adjustments, I sat up and pressed the call button because I felt a bowel movement coming, aka

My daughter is 8. She always asks me first if it's okay if she asks the leash holder if she may pet the dog.
We own a 6 year old Cavapoo who isn't aggressive but very vocal and protective over us.
@inmydream1and
If it makes you feel any better, my 8 year old daughter watched them kiss in awe and didn't say ew like she normally does.
Then, she turned to me and said, "Kissing is okay because it's Taylor. Not for you, Mommy. "

My daughter got a newborn doll from Santa. I helped her with her first diaper change. She took one look and immediately covered her eyes as the doll is gender specific 😂

That's why it is so important to do whatever YOU want! Quiet your mind to make sound decisions.

Since I have given birth 5 times (only once without an epidural) doctors like to remind me..." "You've given birth 5 times! This will be nothing!
Um yeah, no. I was almost completely numb & the babies basically pushed themselves out 😮🤣

With my dad in Heaven since Christmas Eve 2017, your post made me tear up for several reasons. I am so happy for you because change isn't easy, and acceptance can waiver when our loved ones question our decisions.

@nate_postlethwt
If you "give up" stop therapy, you can always start again, but just like working out it's better to back off a bit than to completely stop if it's uncomfortable. It's not "I'm finally healed". More like "Now I understand why & how to deal/cope/with these tools moving forward.
@ShelbyHintze
This is how good parenting works. You show interest in your childs' interests and allow them to be a part of yours.
You can't know what you want/like without knowing what you don’t want/like.

Missing what (ultimately) isn't healthy for you has to be the most hurtful misunderstanding between the heart and mind. Until fighting the urge to contact subsides because peace has fill the void.

As a single mom (for a long time), I used to feel really guilty that I wasn't able to find a good partner for myself and for my kids.
The truth is that I didn't really try. I was focusing on providing financially and showing up physically for kids since their father chose not

At a waterfront restaurant a few weeks ago, my daughter kept flipping the menu over back and forth.

I have given birth 5 times. Once without an epidural. I don't feel like a hero or stronger because of it. It was so incredibly painful, and yes I do remember the pain.

Ah, so sweet! I can relate to both sides. I couldn't wait to grow up and actually had my first child when I was 17.
My children are 24, 21, 17, and 8. My 17 year old recently told me when she graduates from high school she wants to move to New Jersey or New York from California

I used to work an overnight shift, work out, shower, take my kids to school, then sleep. That was in my 30s lol
At 42, I workout between 4-6pm. It's better for me.
I highly recommend low impact high intensity full-body workouts like Lagree on the megaformer or barre/Pilates.

No. Most agencies won't allow you to become a surrogate if you are struggling financially. I was doing very well then, and I still am. You'd be shocked at how much postpartum overnight support caregivers make 😌

Yes! Ask them how you can help soften triggers. Would they like to start a new tradition on trauma anniversary dates? Help them be creative because oftentimes trauma causes brain fog.
