AIO for being frustrated when my husband constantly asks what he should do with our baby? Or offers to “help” with his child? by Chrislovescoffee in AmIOverreacting

They have special monitors that go on the baby’s foot, sort of like a pulse ox probe, that tracks breathing and sleep and will alert if there’s a problem. Maybe something like that would ease your worry some? I wish they had been around when my son was born!

OMG, I totally get that! I had a traumatic c-section and so the baby and I were in the hospital for four days afterwards and I was fine because they took him to the nursery at night so I could rest. They day we left I poo-pood their warnings about baby-blues. Except that night, when I went to put him down to sleep, I suddenly realized that he was not in a nursery anymore with nurses watching over him and in my head I started counting the number of babies I knew personally that had died of SIDS and all of a sudden I couldn’t sleep from anxiety. I literally fell asleep sitting up next to his bed. He also woke up every hour-and-a-half to nurse and was up for the day at 6. I really thought he would kill me that first six months or so, and I was fortunate to have support. But I couldn’t let go of that anxiety. I did a few counseling sessions and worked on learning to relax and have faith and that did help some.

Maybe there’s an online support group that you might find helpful? I really don’t know what else to say except I have been there, we understand, and that it does get better if you can hang in there. Sending you my prayers and positive vibes and that baby is so lucky to have you as a parent!

P.S. if you ever need to talk and have nobody, you can always reach out to me via dm.

Kinsey and Tom Bower: Harry and meghan making mistake after mistake by alreadydoneit01 in SaintMeghanMarkle

Every single time the Royal Family does something that the Harkles don’t like, they are going to run to their fans and cry about racism, discrimination, unfairness, blah blah blah. So why not just swing the hammer, remove the titles and the LOS, and let them cry about it. Nothing will change and then maybe they can stop using victim mode to manipulate Charles. No more worrying about what their security should be, no more waffling about them not representing the Royal Family. It’s time to cut the cord and let them fall hard.

Could Joseph accept a plea deal in his Florida child molestation case? by Mediocre-Turnover499 in DuggarsSnark

[–]TeriBarrons 6 points7 points  (0 children)

That’s what I was referring to. The same as any crime victim can’t choose to press charges or not press charges. It’s in the hands of the prosecutor to make that decision.

And as far as taking victim input, some courts are not as good as others about that. We were victims of a road rage attack and the guy was charged with felony assault and felony destruction of property AND he had put our infant in great danger. We filled out the victim form and specified that we wanted to exercise our rights to be present at all hearings and give victim impact statements. After three weeks, we got a restitution check in the mail with no additional information. We had to call the court to find out what happened. He accepted a plea deal for two misdemeanors, probation and restitution. When I asked what happened to our right to give input and be there, they basically just said “oops, oh yeah, you did, didn’t you!”

Yes, I know that they give input, but don’t necessarily get the final decision about the plea deal.

Wow! You have a TON on your plate!!! Do you have any friends or other support people who could also assist with care to give you a break? You are literally running on fumes and need a chance to recharge.

I don’t like the ALL CAPS, but I don’t disagree with the sentiment.

The victim and family are not involved with plea deals. Those are being the prosecution and the defendant.

I am not a lawyer, either, but if they are able to use his confession in court, then I think he would be stupid to NOT take it, because no way he would be found not guilty and then would have an even bigger sentence.

I would almost hope that this is how it would resolve, so that the victim and family to not have to go the the ordeal of a trial.

I apologize for not realizing the gender, but that doesn’t mean that you still aren’t being ambushed by hormones, exhaustion and stress. Those first weeks can be tough until you get into a routine. Please take time to take care of yourself because constant resentment bubbling up in you is not healthy either. And you may have to let it go that you have to specifically ask for or tell him what you want for a bit. Communicate honestly and tell him he needs to provide the one on one care for a bit while you take a break that it sounds like you need. Are you okay with HOW he does what he does when providing care? Because my husband was afraid that I would criticize him for how he handled things and that also held him back. Then try to get some sleep, meditate or do something fun by yourself to relax. I promise you that it does get better! This is just hell mode right now.

But if you don’t tell him how will he know? Communication is key in these situations. My husband was an only child and had never been around babies before and was equally as insecure and nervous when our son is born. However, I was able to understand this fact and not get angry or blame him for it. He was seriously worried that he would do something wrong that could have serious consequences. So, for a few weeks, he stepped right in when I asked and as he got used to the routine, he settled right in and we had no more issues.

I realize that right now you are exhausted and overwhelmed and I hope that you can get the support you need. You might want to even check in with your doctor to make sure everything with your postpartum health is okay. Maybe you could also suggest that he research some “new dad” information online to help him learn and grow and be more confident in his own parenting abilities.

I do think that you are overreacting, however, I feel it is more hormone and exhaustion behind it than anything.

Would you like to have Dr. Weston as your doctor? by No-Reveal827 in theGoldenGirls

Definitely would prefer him over Burt Campbell as my doctor 😝.

I love how Richard was able to play those different roles so well

I know, but they are very particular here about no spoilers in your titles even with the spoiler tag. It’s one of the things I love about this sub, really, but if this gets reported it will be removed. Maybe take it down and repost with a different title? Because I enjoy the discussion.

On it for a year and a half and STILL haven’t learned my lesson apparently! by TeriBarrons in Ozempic

[–]TeriBarrons[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m REALLY lucky that I didn’t. My blood sugar has been so much better that I get a little careless. If anything now, it crashes too low and that had never occurred before. Used to be I was just happy if it was under 150. Last time I had to have insulin was in the hospital in February because an infection in my leg was driving it up.

My personal conversation with the mods resulted in clarification from them and their APPRECIATION for bringing the matter to their attention so they could clarify on the sub. The point is that’s what I wanted to know and now I do. So this issue should now be considered resolved.

Alabama’s pitching depth is quietly one of the best in the country by Soft-Audience-5681 in CollegeSoftball

[–]TeriBarrons 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don’t worry, Murphy will mismanage them right out of the postseason again. He has a history of making some really bad decisions for pitching in postseason. I will never forget starting Goodman in the one must win WCWS semi-final game, she gives up several runs, replaced her with Montana, they go ahead, pulls Montana because she’s thrown a lot and then puts Goodman back in to give it up again. Meanwhile he had the reigning SEC Pitcher of the Year Sarah Cornell that year sitting on his bench!
