I didn't want to have kids until I met the man who changed my mind - Business Insider

As an only child, my parents weren’t too thrilled when I reminded them — once again — that I was never (ever) getting married, and they could very much let go of the idea of having grandchildren. Kids were not in my plans.For a long time, I believed it. I had long relationships that always ended when things needed to get serious — whether it was moving in together or talking about what would come after.In 2014, after a horrible heartbreak, I met my now-husband. It sounds like something that happ…

Twins afraid of Santa finally take good picture after small change ...

My twins were born in March 2020, which means they missed out on a lot of toddler activities because of the pandemic. One of those was seeing Santa in person, which didn’t happen until they were almost 3 years old.While we were visiting my family in Argentina in 2022, we spotted a Santa at the mall. My older son, who was 4 at the time, was excited because he wanted to share his long list of requests for Christmas. The twins, on the other hand, were a bit timid. I get it; a stranger with a big be…

I tried the Forme Power Bra Taylor Swift used to train for her tour...

Over a year ago, I started playing tennis, both to help with my physical health and also to make new friends. I’ve played at least once a week every week since, and while my game got better, I started to notice my shoulders were hunching forward a lot on the court.Since it’s a common issue for tennis players, I decided to try a sports bra that helps with posture.Taylor Swift reportedly used the same bra to train for “The Eras Tour.” After wearing the bra for nine months, I completely understand…

Doctor saved my uterus after a miscarriage - Business Insider

When my son was 9 months old, my husband and I decided we were ready to have another child. My first time getting pregnant was so easy that we assumed it would take us longer the second time around since we had heard from friends about unexplained infertility after having a first child.Surprisingly, I got pregnant on the first try. Because I had been tracking my cycle so closely, I knew I was five weeks pregnant when I went in for my first ultrasound.There, the tech showed us the little flickeri…

Visiting My Grandmother's Birthplace in Spain Made Me Grieve Her - ...

Every couple of years when I was growing up, my family would embark on a European vacation. My dad is Italian, and my mom is Spanish, so we’d fly to their respective countries to see family and do some sightseeing.When we went to Spain, my maternal grandmother would join us. When World War II started in 1939, she left the country with her father and brother, migrating to Argentina for a safer future. Her older sister stayed behind with their mom and never left their small town in Galicia.I remem…

My Shadow in a Photo Looks Like Lionel Messi's Face - Business Insider

In 2014, I spent a few weeks Los Angeles for work and to visit friends. I was feeling my outfit, so I asked a friend to take a photo of me posing against our office building.Without thinking too much, I uploaded it to Instagram and went out for dinner and drinks. Hours later, when I came back to my Airbnb, I saw that a friend had commented on the photo, saying “Haha your shadow looks like a face,” immediately followed by another comment saying “WAIT! It’s Messi’s face!“I kind of saw it, but also…

I Made Lots of New Friends Playing Tennis, We Talk Everyday - Busin...

In the summer of 2022, the country club my husband and I joined after moving from New York City to Maine — mostly to make friends, since we didn’t know anyone in town — advertised a new beginner tennis clinic starting in August.Every time we walked past the sign, my husband would nudge me and say, “Maybe you should join?” My answer was always a hard no. But he is stubborn and kept insisting until I finally signed up. It was only six weeks, I thought, and I was aching for more physical activity.…

Mom Took Kids to Disney World, Shares Mistakes She Won't Make Again...

I’m a mom of three kids and I absolutely love going to Disney World. Although I wouldn’t consider myself a Disney adult — I’ve only been to the Florida park a handful of times — I will never say no to a quick adventure to see the characters and get some rides in. Earlier this year, my husband and I took our three kids, all 5 and under, together to Disney World for the first time. We had taken our son before when he was 18 months old, and we had such a blast that we wanted to do the same for our…

A Mom Died by Suicide Days After Having Twins, I Saw Myself in Her ...

Editor’s note: This article mentions suicide and suicidal ideationMy first child was born in 2018 via an emergency C-section. I was left sore and emotionally wrecked because I wasn’t prepared for him to come so early or to have major surgery. When a nurse walked into my room and saw me crying, she said it was just a sign that my milk was coming in, we were on a good track. But the crying didn’t stop after it did. And it wouldn’t for several weeks after. I felt lonely, isolated, and completely in…

Crocs Mega Crush Sandals Are a Hit With Millennial Moms - Business ...

I’ve always said that Crocs are the perfect mom shoe. I was very anti-Crocs clogs until I became pregnant with my first, and literally could not fit my feet into any of my regular shoes. My husband suggested I buy a pair of fleece-lined Crocs while visiting Maine and I was deeply offended. I just thought they were so unstylish.But after trying them just for fun, I got it. My feet were so comfortable that I bought them and wore them non-stop until they fell apart. Since 2017, I’ve been purchasin…

I Used a Free Travel Agent to Plan My Disney Trip, so Enjoyable - B...

In April, while visiting family in Miami, I thought it’d be fun to take my three kids, husband, and my parents to Disney World for a couple of days.I asked in a tweet if people had suggestions of how to go about planning a last-minute trip, and among all the very helpful recommendations, someone said they were a Disney travel planner and they could help me. At first, I was skeptical. Disney is already so expensive to begin with and I’ve planned multiple vacations to places like Italy, Uruguay, a…
