#miscarriage mention

[the-sheep]

Just curious, what was skyfire’s reaction when Starscream told him that he was carrying?

Skyfire actually told STAR that he's carrying.

and then they simultaneously remembered every complication that prevented them from doing it on purpose years beforehand. and had two very different flavors of panic attack.

AITA for dumping my job responsibilities on a random customer?

Okay, so, I work as a cashier at a local video game store. The other day, I was working a shift, and got a phonecall telling me that my girlfriend was in hospital - sensing an emergency, I immediately rushed out of work, asking a random customer to cover the remainder of my shift for me.

I got to the hospital, ran right through the doors, and asked the receptionist for directions. She then pointed me to where I needed to be, and I had a brief talk with the doctor attending to my girlfriend. I then walked into the hospital room where my girlfriend was, and found her inconsolably sobbing in a bed. Unfortunately, she had suffered a miscarriage.

Now, here's the conflict - on the one hand, I feel like under the circumstances, I was justified in abandoning my shift to attend to my girlfriend in a dire situation like this. On the other hand, I feel like it was somewhat unfair of me to dump my work responsibilities onto a random customer who had nothing to do with any of this. I'm really not sure how to feel about it. AITA?

On a scale of one to ten how painful do you think the ninth wave would currently be at this exact moment for someone whose read ur other fics but is also like. Emotionally fragile to angsty cliffhangers. Bc oh my god I’m so scared. Esp bc u mentioned there wouldn’t be any plans of miscarriage etc in the last fic but idk if that means it would happen in this one. Just wanna get a little idea before I do that to myself if possible Ty

I feel like I am a very biased person to ask, but I would say….maybe a 6? No one is having a great time right now but things are at a slightly stable point (at least by the end of the most recent chapter). No plans for miscarriage or major character death in this fic, I can say that for sure.

I did tear up a little writing Alfred’s scene today, but that was mostly because I just love him so much. He’s so dear to this Pack, it makes me crazy sometimes.

[whatwouldeddiedo]

i will say up until last week i was SURE this show wouldn't go the miscarriage route but after jlh saying even brian said they did worse to maddie than even when they did their doug stuff together i am....worried. i honestly think that is the most devastating thing that can happen in a show.

so yeah the chances aren't high but i fear they are not 0 and i am very very scared what might happen.

[xv-step]

okay so i wanna have my thoughts down pat before the season 2 finale so here goes (also based off that one clip on reddit of remaining trailer footage for these last 2 episodes)

-cobel will come back to mark and devon and make a glasglow block of sorts that will allow innie mark and outie mark to communicate to them both because clearly reintegrated mark isn't in any shape to do that. both of them will probably fight over how to go about 'saving gemma' (and maybe saving helly which is probably where they would argue). cobel in all of this doesn't have a stance and is mostly interested in this all from an inventor/scientist sort of view. (because mark is in charge of completing cold harbor). outie mark will effectively win the fight between them if/when the glasglow block is removed

-a reintegrated mark will go down to the severed floor to go and find gemma where he is stopped by drummond and milchick. helly is confused over what's going on and finds irving's instructions to the exports hall and heads there. **mark will be probably be forced to choose between helly and gemma, and tries to do both somehow**

-***the reason why cold harbor is so important is because it is supposed to be the ultimate test of severance on people, to fully erase grief (an extremely strong emotion) from a person, in this way, severance will be able to be marketed to the public as a wider solution to strong emotions, thematically it removes the most humanity it can be destroying memory and emotion. it was always going to be mark and gemma for cold harbor. gemma at the end of cold harbor isn't going to be released out into the public hailing how good lumon is because she is (legally) dead and has been for years. only mark can complete cold harbor because he's coding away gemma's emotions and memories and who else would know them best. gemma's fear of death will be coded away by mark, which lumon will use to exploit more severed people who join after seeing that severance can fully mute trauma on a person***

-mark will probably save gemma but like orpheus, turns back in some way that leaves her unable to follow with him. she can't leave the severed floor physically. and when mark tries he realizes it and botches up gemma's head in which destroys her true and first mind. she won't die, but mentally she will. depressing shit

-also hellyna most likely won't be pregnant, it is something that is expected of her as the functional heir to lumon to provide them with the next heir to lumon. but helena is smart enough not to take any chances with helly considering that she is willing to do anything to assert herself against helena, even if it means miscarrying or aborting helena's pregnancy. also why on earth would the board and her father allow for helena to have the next heir to lumon or kier's reincarnation out of wedlock. yes mark is the specialist boy because of cold harbor but they clearly like mythologizing themselves and their story, why would they not do this for helena and her baby. when you look at all the pieces it doesn't make too much logical sense but when has severance ever been logical. i will be pretty surprised if they end off the season with hellyna pregnant or trying to get pregnant with mark's kid.

I cant remember if Spock being a genetically engineered tube baby is actually canon or not but, either way, I DO see him as being a very canonically planned and thought-out baby (like Sarek and Amanda weren't good at parenting emotionally but they WERE baby-prepared. In my mind.) However. In my au where Spock is a terrifying accident baby.....

Like the concept of accidentbaby!Spock has a lot of baggage with it like ok A) outs Amanda and Sarek's xenophillic sexual relationship. LOL. B) possibility for complications during childbirth because like how does that work if your baby HAS BLOOD BASED ON A DIFFERENT ELEMENT. (could just be complications or miscarriage or death of mother depending on how dark u wanna get...) C) Spock health complications as a child and/or for his entire life. Whoopsie this hybrid is unplanned and now you have to figure out if its gonna survive infancy. And then childhood. Etc etc. I won't lie I mostly thought of this au because my "Spock has chronic pain" trutherism is soooo strong. I just think a really interesting Spock Avenue to explore is, like, hey. what if his body hated him? Its fresh it's relatable its now. Its my accepted worldview.

I saw that scene in "Operation: Annihilate" where Spock insists on working through the intense pain McCoy is registering in him because according to him its "something of the body that can be overcome by the mind," or whatever. And I was like wow Mr Spock this is just me working an 8hr shift with back pain.....

THIS IS A JOKE OUR MOM IS COMFY WITH BTW!!!

Our mom had 12 miscarriages and we've always said we stole all their Genders, when we came out she said "Ah that's where they went"......

[byjove]

My mom was the cutest kid ever. She was just adorable. Which was probably in no small part due to my grandmother who made sure to dress her in the cutest outfits the 70s had to offer, bought her the coolest toys and put her hair up in pigtails. But she was a cute kid all on her own. My dad, however, there aren’t many photos of him as a child and he looks evil in all of them, he’s grinning at the camera like he’s planning something diabolical. Unlike the pictures of my mom which were taken fairly candidly on a home camera and have that warm film 70s glow, little windows into a comfortable middle class home with a happy little girl, the few photos of my dad were all taken at the Macy’s photo studio and they lack charm.

My mother’s mother didn’t always protect her from the evil in the world but she loves her and she was so happy to have a child after years of marriage and a previous miscarriage. My father came into this world under very different circumstances. He was conceived at a party and his parents had a shotgun wedding when grandma was about 3 months pregnant. I know my dad’s mom loves me but I’m not sure she loves him as much as a parent should. It shows in the photos. It shows in the careful way my mom’s mom packed away baby mementos and little outfits belonging to my mom but my dad doesn’t have many toys from his childhood and all of the photos of him are so impersonal.

[alastor-and-adam]

Alastor besides doting on your pregnant boyfriend and being happy that Evelyn is cuddling with you, how are you coping with everything that happened while Evelyn was sick?

Alastor: I don’t think about it.

Adam: Uh…Al you good?

Alastor: Yes darling I’m fine. I just don’t want dwell on such an awful time. Evelyn is well once more and your pregnancy is going splendidly!

Adam: Alastor…I know you’re—

Alastor: JUST FINE MY SWEETHEART! I’M DOING JUST—

Adam gets behind Alastor and wraps his arms around him, his head on Alastor’s shoulder.

Adam: My sweet Donner…it’s okay…it’s not your fault. Eve had some miscarriages too that were hard on her.

Alastor: *sighs and places a hand in Adam’s hand that was wrapped around him* How can I just mope over a loss I couldn’t prevent when I have people who need me. Like you and Evelyn. *he turns around in Adam’s arms, cupping his face with his hand* I’m fine. Not perfect but the physical pain is gone. You and Evelyn and the baby inside of you are all I need.

Adam: *starts to cheer up and smiles* Damn Donner, you’re making me cry.

Alastor: There there now Darling. Don’t cry. *wipes Adam’s tears*

scam’s pregnancy announcement

[onepinkline]

I don’t know when pregnancy loss stops hurting.

It didn’t at their due date, or the one year mark of having their presence in my life. It didn’t at the first “birth” day, or second, or fifth.

It didn’t when I got pregnant with their sibling. It didn’t when I lost them, too.

It hasn’t on those random Tuesdays, when I’m hit with the sudden grief that I never heard them cry.

It hasn’t every Mother’s Day, every Christmas wondering how different it would’ve been than the last, when the school year starts and I realize they’d be off to Kindergarten.

When I pass the children’s activity center in the museum, and I wonder if they’d be eager to go in or shy because of the other kids.

I know it shouldn’t stop hurting. I tell my friends, your baby matters, I support other loss parents by reminding them your baby existed. I convince myself that mine do not. I close my eyes to see the images of the positive pregnancy tests and pretend that they never existed.

Coping, avoidance is (negatively) coping.

Someone, who was barely a something, can’t hurt this much. Maybe they never got to be my baby, but they were my dream. My future, love personified. Never anything tangible to attach it to, a vision of someday.

Someday left too soon, too soon to be tangible. Too soon to grieve. Too soon to understand. I was still processing that they existed, when they did not anymore.

I don’t know when pregnancy loss quits hurting.

I hope it never does, because it is the only reminder that I ever had them at all.

My Half Assed Predictions for the Next Episodes of 9-1-1 on ABC

Eddie is presumed dead when in reality he was kidnapped by the [spins a wheel] Russian Mafia for some convoluted reason. As Buck is now Christopher's guardian, there is prolonged custody drama between him and Eddie's parents. This is treated as the resolution for the whole "my dad was cheating on his gf w/ a woman that looked like my dead mom” debacle. It is narratively confusing and does not satisfactorily tie up any loose ends.

I'm gonna go w/ a helicopter crash for Buck and Tommy. They have a vague discussion about their feelings and moving too quickly afterwards in the hospital, along with another Glee mention. Tommy is clearly on pain meds and probably too high for the conversation. They make out and all of the machines beep and there's a 'funny' scene were a nurse rushes in to make sure that Tommy isn't dying. Oops. This happens exactly one episode after Eddie comes back from the dead. There seems to be no lingering trauma about anything, except Tommy has a cast on his leg next time we see him.

Miscarriage plot line? Maybe? I'm just saying we all know something is gonna happen with Maddie and Chimney's baby. Anyways, it isn't handled well. Maddie is back to work and acting normal within two episodes.

Hen and Karen have another argument about work life balance. This time Hen's entire family is now somehow in danger again. Maybe it's a bank hostage situation. Maybe several cars crash into the house. Everything explodes. She and Karen have a tearful conversation about love and life and Making Time for the Important Things. They plan a family vacation. Next episode there is no mention of any turmoil, just Hen talking about National Parks that would be fun to visit.

Bobby wakes up in a cold sweat from an upsettingly vivid dream. Or was it a nightmare? It's the wrong side of midnight. He is an Olympic Gold Medalist for Figure Skating. Now retired, he's one of the skating coaches for the Minnesota Wild. His beautiful wife (Angela Bassett in a red wig) is awoken by his movement. She asks if everything is okay. "I had a strange dream," Bobby says, "I was a firefighter." "Sexy," Says Angela Bassett in a red wig. They kiss passionately. The screen fades to black. It's the ending scene of the series finale.

But like what does that mean for like

Miscarriages in warriors

[jokerislandgirl32]

im glad your parents didnt use protection, jig, bc you're pretty awsomesauce

Oh my goodness 😆, thank you I guess. The same goes to you!

To be fair I was an accident. My mom was told she would probably never be able to have kids, and my dad didn’t want kids. Dad wasn’t too happy when he found out I was coming; I was referred to at the “damn blizzard” baby because I was…created…during a blizzard. But after he found out I was a girl he was content. One high risk pregnancy, 2 near miscarriages, 3 months of bed rest for my mom, and one emergency c-section later (because I almost died the day I was born), I arrived. A crazy entrance into the world for the crazy person I was to become I suppose!

[ashleybenlove]

"I didn't marry you for your cooking."

This fucking line.

Wouldn't it be hilarious if she was already pregnant when they got married?

(Yes, with Hiccup. Though I'm firmly of the opinion that Hiccup was not the only pregnancy they had. Just the only one to make it out of infancy.)
