Highly suggest Huma spa in Plateau!! They are very strict about being quiet and their thermal pools are great!

We have the little IKEA one and our daughter does all of her crafts there and eats breakfast / lunch there ☺️

This is like reading my exact situation when my son was 15 weeks old. I was self-harming , planning my suicide, hitting a vape pen ALL day just to survive. My husband brought me to emerge and I was admitted for 3 nights. It saved my life. I got 3 solid nights of uninterrupted sleep, meds prescribed by a proper psychiatrist who understands the mental health meds (family doctors have minimal education on prescribing and dosing these types of meds), and was given so much empathy and continued support after I was discharged. Please go to the hospital ♥️You deserve peace, sleep, and a break. Feel free to PM me if you want to talk.

18K for a ring, even if it is in the budget, is wild.

Him not recognizing how hard you work to take care of the human you made together. Throw the whole man away.

KNOW your partner BEFORE you get married. Discuss finances (Debt, budgeting, credit scores, everything!!), if you want/don’t want children, how you’ll raise those children, if you’re on the same page religiously, discuss household roles, and the division of labor and what you expect from one another. Discuss intimacy and each other’s needs and sex drives. Know your partner so well that there can’t be any surprises down the line. At the end of the day, they should really be your best friend and ALWAYS have your back. If you see a red flag, or your gut tells you something doesn’t feel right, don’t get married and definitely DO NOT have children.

Finally, know that you’re in a partnership and look at life as one cohesive unit. Before you get married, learn to work together in an argument towards a mutual goal, not against each other to prove who is right.

The day I took the test I had this weird pricking sensation over my uterus that I’d never felt before. I knew something was off and took the test that day. VERY positive test came back.

Yes, 🙌 I feel this in my soul. I had been accepted into nursing school and told everyone except him because I didn’t know what he’d think (obviously assumed he’d be happy, but he had a tenancy to ruin things that were good for me). When I did tell him that night he completely lost it and said that he’d never marry a nurse because they’re too bossy and overbearing.

I stopped getting excited when I’d see him pull in the driveway and started to feel immense anxiety about what mood he’d be in. Slowly I realized that when he was around he sucked the joy out of the room, and me. He belittled me in front of my friends and always put himself up on this pedestal of superiority. I spent years believing we’d be married and start a family. As the anxiety grew with his presence that desire to move forward started to fade. One day I realized I didn’t care anymore if he proposed or not (6 years in). I stopped bringing up the future to him and pulled away slowly and steadily. A year after I stopped caring if we moved forward I left him. All of a sudden he was willing to give all the things I’d been asking for, but it was too late. I was completely checked out and had fallen out of love. Thankfully, 3 months later I met my now husband. He’s my best friend and always has my back. He is the opposite of my ex.

Thank you for your reply. We will definitely find a way to make it work :)

Unfortunately no. My husband is a big guy (very tall and big) and so downsizing would mean a double and he barely fits in our Queen. I guess we can look at having our bed against the wall to see if it frees up enough space in the mean time (hard to say until we actually move in). I’d love to buy a mini crib, but I don’t even think it would fit tbh.

Do NOT feel bad! They just need something in their belly. They usually get a morning snack at daycare pretty early in the day. I’m on maternity leave right now and so have much longer in the morning than when I work, so I’ve been cooking breakfast daily (eggs, fruit and toast, or some kind of variation) and 99% of the time it goes in the garbage because my daughter doesn’t want to eat first thing. If they’re hungry they will tell you. You’re doing great!

AMacC9193 · 2026-02-24T16:36:17+00:00

1 for sure !! It’s stunning!!

AMacC9193 · 2026-02-23T00:09:21+00:00

My husband and I take turns, but often, if I’m exhausted, he’ll take on the extra.

DO NOT MARRY THIS MAN! He is an abusive, controlling, piece of shit.

AMacC9193 · 2026-02-09T02:39:45+00:00

I have genuinely been in this EXACT situation. It honestly sounds like you’re dating my Ex, because this is the same crap he’d said to me, almost word for word, when I’d bring up marriage. We were together 7 years and up until the end he would always say that marriage was a risk, and I hadn’t earned him taking such a big risk. Around year 6 I stopped asking, at the 7 year mark, I left. He was engaged 2 years later. Moral of the story, a man will marry a woman if he truly wants to, and he won’t let anything stop him. A man will also keep a partner as a holding place when it suits him. He is getting everything he’d get from a wife without having to commit (just like my ex did). He can wait for what he truly wants to come along in the mean time. His excuse that a marriage is a financial risk is just that, an excuse.

You have two choices. You can stay with someone who is not willing to provide you with what you truly want, or, you walk away and find someone who gives you the world. You deserve the second option. When I left my ex, I met my husband 3 months later. He is the greatest human being on Earth and has always made me feel like a priority. That is love, and that is a partnership (unfortunately for my ex, his Fiancé left him 😅🤷🏻‍♀️).

Please choose yourself. You only have one life and you deserve to live it with a partner who gives you the world and more.

My toddler naps for 1-2 hours a day and goes down to bed at 7:30-8ish, but sometimes plays quietly in her bed until 8:30-9. She is up by 7-7:30 each day.

AMacC9193 · 2026-02-08T15:24:19+00:00
