Slache Posted May 27, 2020 Share Posted May 27, 2020 I did pre labor super early. Like 5 months. Totally freaked me out. I've done it with each one since. All my babies were full term. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All my babies were full term. I had that with Gymnast. Apparently, reading Ina May birth stories was exciting my uterus. I had to stop. I started reading them again two weeks before I was "due," and went to 42 weeks, 3 days. Go figure. 🤷🏾♀️ 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Susan in TN Posted May 27, 2020 Share Posted May 27, 2020 I am officially on maintenance phase with my health program. The director feels Very Strongly that I must eat a high fat, high glycemic carb diet one to two days a week (or at least 4-5 meals spaced out through the week). I think I can get on board with that! 😄 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slache Posted May 27, 2020 Share Posted May 27, 2020 I'm looking at filial responsibility laws (kids have to pay parents bills) in Ohio and it's gotten worse since we left Ohio. I read a piece about how these laws are dangerous because it prevents elder care. In Texas we could have FIL live here for 10 years and then go to a home, but in Ohio he couldn't go to home because we have proven we're willing to take care of him, and that could have dangerous implications for FIL. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slache Posted May 27, 2020 Share Posted May 27, 2020 1 minute ago, myblessings4 said: So this law supposedly says if your elderly relatives live with you that you can't then put them in homes? I'm not fully understanding, maybe. Dsil had dmil live with them before dmil moved to a home. They're in Virginia. I am having a hard time thinking of many elderly in our family who have gone to homes, and have never heard of that law. Totally varies by state. These are states that have something that makes kids responsible. In Ohio there are a lot and an individual might not qualify for assistance if a kid makes enough money, can't go to home if they already live with a child, and the child could be held responsible for the parents bills. Virginia could be totally different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It usually means that people can go after the kids for medical and nursing after the parents death. Most families are not effected by this. When we found out about it we decided to never pay a parents medical bill or write them a large check. You can be very generous, but know how before you do it.
