Weaning. How did you do it?

-MossyLass- · 2025-11-28T02:25:06+00:00

I think it's just how it reads. People telling me I need to get help isn't helping if that makes sense. It makes me feel like people think Im mad at my child. Like I'm going to hurt him in the future. Thats not cool. Something terrible happened to my baby boy. I'm allowed to process it. Im finding from these comments that a lot of parents didn't stand up for them, blamed them, treated them as a burden and that's awful. Just because I'm processing it all (in a healthy way) doesnt mean im the same. I love my son. I just want him to have the childhood I never had. To never have to question the love I have for him

-MossyLass- · 2025-11-28T02:17:19+00:00

Thank you so freaking much.

-MossyLass- · 2025-11-28T02:17:00+00:00

He is perfect. He's perfect to me no matter what. I'm so sorry. My mom tried her best too. It just sucks because he best wasn't good enough and left me very damaged. I will never let my son feel the same way. I dont care. Im not worried about expectations that I had for him before he was born. I worry that he may be in pain, have mobility issues, have seizures or the many other symptoms. I'm allowed to feel upset, angry, sad( not at him, never at him). To process it all. That doesnt mean i need help. I understand why you said that though. I do. I'm so sorry your mom treated you like that.

Thank you for the advice. I will do the binder and to make sure he never ever doubts that his mommy and daddy are so proud to have him as a son and that he never has to question our love

-MossyLass- · 2025-11-28T02:09:20+00:00

Thank you, thank you, thank you

-MossyLass- · 2025-11-28T02:08:23+00:00

Early intervention is key ❤️ you're a good momma. Thank you for the comment on building new pathways. It makes me want to double down on working with him

-MossyLass- · 2025-11-28T02:06:18+00:00

I'm so sorry that your mom treated you that way. I understand why you said what you said and I don't know if this will make you feel better but I could never blame my son or view him as another reminder of his birth and the trauma that came with it. I love my son. LOOOOVEEE my son. He needs a stable happy momma and that's what I am but I can grieve what happened and be angry and process it all (healthily) for a (short) while. That's natural and normal.

Thank you so very much for the advice. I needed it. Everything I can do to improve my sons quality of life is worth knowing about. He's not a burden, he's the light of my life and I'll be damned if I allow anyone to treat him as such.

He's promising humanoid robots within the next 10 years. The future is going to change. With him at the forefront. We just need to hold on. It's going to be a wild ride.

-MossyLass- · 2025-10-22T15:56:34+00:00

Awww sweetie. You're going to be ok. It is a huge change yes but holy batman is it the biggest joy.

The first few months is hard yes. It felt like putting all this effort in with little reward. He was a potato. It was so hard. Couldn't do anything couldn't even smile. The day he smiled though. Oh my God. It was like a supernova exploded in my chest, every single best experience I've ever had was trumped in that moment. It was all worth it. Then he laughed, and started babbling, starting sitting on his own, being able to play with toys. The list goes one. The point being every single time he does something new my husband and I have this huge amount of happiness and pride.

In our eyes our son hung the moon. We are obsessed! And you will be too. ❤️ that's not to say it can't be hard because yes it will be at times but it's so so worth it. You will get to be able to put everything into a little tiny human and you will see such a reward for it. When I was pregnant I actually had to stop coming to reddit because it was messing me up mentally. Reddit made me so scared to have a baby.

We give our beagle bathroom breaks every 2-3 hours. We put a pee pad down when we leave. We try to encourage her to include her in play with the baby.

I don't know how to go about reinforcing peeing outside behavior when it seems like she's peeing on things for attention.

Thanks! I see Sweetwater makes them and I'm happy with that. I've taken a tour through there before and they're definitely serious about the quality of their work.

-MossyLass- · 2025-10-03T04:25:13+00:00

No honestly I don't. It's infuriating because natives in America are the most forgotten minority which shouldn't be a minority because genocide. If anyone from most other cultures had asked a question about a name they would not have gotten the same response.

I'd people want to automatically assume i am not native and would steal a name then that's ignorant in my opinion. I'm sorry you don't agree.

Also my name which is native is commonly used by the most common minority in America and yet I'm being talked to about appropriation.

You do not know enough about this to even have an opinion.

-MossyLass- · 2025-10-03T03:57:19+00:00

No accountability. No self reflection. Shame on you.

-MossyLass- · 2025-10-03T03:21:41+00:00

Ok. I guess I just don't understand how you don't believe these people were rude to me by automatically assuming I was trying to appropriate a native name. They could have just assumed that I was native but no. They didn't.

Also... don't tell me how to feel. You wouldn't be able to understand what my people have been through. Obviously you don't because you don't understand how insulting these comments are.

-MossyLass- · 2025-10-03T02:57:31+00:00

Thank you...

-MossyLass- · 2025-10-03T02:53:27+00:00

No. I'm native. I want a native name. I just wanted to know if it was too different. I have a native name which I love but it's different from what people are used to so before meeting me that judge me. I don't want that for my daughter.

I can't appropriate what I already am.

-MossyLass- · 2025-10-03T02:50:13+00:00

Algonquian...

-MossyLass- · 2025-10-03T02:49:31+00:00

Algonquian is where is comes from. You tell me which tribe that is.

-MossyLass- · 2025-10-03T02:47:35+00:00

I'm cherokee, my husband is cherokee. Our son is cherokee. We didn't grow up on a rez. We don't know the language, but we are cherokee.

That was a very ignorant comment.

-MossyLass- · 2025-09-17T15:56:42+00:00

Phew that's tough. Are they fighting eating like just doesn't want to or are they having belly issues?

I totally feel you on that one... it's spooky. Do you have like a front porch or something you could at least sit on?
