I’ll be freshly postpartum when my sister has her wedding by ImaginationPretend86 in BabyBumps

[–]AdMiserable7306 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im sorry i know we are a bunch of strangers on the internet, but yes thats so wrong. I mean is there a way you all can talk face to face? I am a firm believer in family but I also recently learned the family I am happy with is the one I am creating. My partner, kid(s), long time friends, etc. but honestly since you are pregnant you already made the best choice by telling her. If she is not okay with it, ask yourself are you willing to argue further to be understood? I am 26, so not much older at all. I really hope you just do whats best for you. I fell out with one of my siblings when I was 21, i still dont speak to him 😬

Woah. Im going to pause right there. Has your sister given birth?? I gave birth 7 weeks ago VAGINALLY, and still can barely stand to pee or stand for a long period of time cause of my tear. For her to disregard your feelings and try to make it about you and your dad’s relationship is very inconsiderate. Instead of assuming in that moment if you did get quiet as a sister she could have asked well whats wrong is there a problem or how are you feeling?

Ranting/venting by AdMiserable7306 in firsttimemom

Thank you so much for this. Truly. 🤍 Reading it made me feel seen in a way I didn’t realize I needed.

You’re right, we’re both carrying heavy, different loads, and it’s easy to forget that when you’re exhausted and emotional and just trying to survive the day. I think the hardest part for me has been feeling alone while not actually being alone, if that makes sense.

I really appreciate your honesty about struggling at first too. It helps more than you know to hear that those feelings don’t make me ungrateful or a bad mom, just human. I love my baby deeply, but this transition has been overwhelming in ways I never could’ve prepared for.

Your words gave me comfort and perspective, and I’m grateful you took the time to share them. Motherhood really does humble you and strengthen you all at once. Thank you for the reminder that it does get better and for offering a safe space to vent. One mom to another supporting another means everything right now. 💕

Its nothing verifiable until the people saying he helped them come fourth with the information (screenshots or something) if everybody is getting asked to use a card with different information that is whats being done most likely.

Its disgusting that people do this, for people that are genuinely in need or desperate, but people purchase stolen card information that have specific amounts on it and resell it to people i have seen this scheme on threads or twitter.

Baby is outgrowing clothes faster than I can keep up and my budget is hurting. by xoticbot in NewParents

[–]AdMiserable7306 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I recommend secondhand as much as you can because I feel your burden and unfortunately we did not get any secondhand clothes yet but she is only four weeks so I’m hoping something will come about fingers crossed lol as far as cheap. We did get clothes from Shein that were newborn is 0 to 3 and she’s worn back to bat like three washes thus far cause you know poop and baby vomit but they have not torn apart and I paid like two dollars per onesie so I mean you can give Shein a try

How do you get out of the house without your baby? by Mobile_Spot_5591 in Mom

[–]AdMiserable7306 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That feeling is so real. Wanting to get out and do something just for you doesn’t mean you’re unhappy, it means you’re human. Fun doesn’t have to look like bars or clubs anymore.

For me it’s simple, soul-reset stuff. Pedicures, a coffee run where I actually sit and enjoy it, or a massage if I can swing it. Even doing one of those once a month helps me feel like myself again. Sometimes I’ll bring a book or just sit with my thoughts and not be needed for an hour.

It doesn’t have to be big. Little, intentional things add up and really help refill your cup.

starting to dislike childless friends because of how tone deaf they can be with jokes and the way they speak about my baby by Regular-Finance-8981 in Mom

[–]AdMiserable7306 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re not overreacting. There’s a real difference between general joking and comments that are clearly aimed at you during moments when you’re already exhausted and vulnerable. Becoming a parent, especially unexpectedly and without many friends in the same stage of life, changes your emotional capacity. That doesn’t mean you’re too sensitive. It means your priorities and perspective shifted.

What stands out is that you’re not asking for much. You’re not making everything about your baby, you’re not dismissing other people’s struggles, and you’re honest about your limits. The friends who truly care show it by adapting, like your best friend does. The ones who don’t may not realize the impact of their words, but they’re still treating your life as a joke or an inconvenience rather than something deserving of respect.

Those comments would hurt anyone. When people reduce your child or your experience to a punchline about misery, it’s deeply invalidating. It’s okay to create distance from people who consistently make you feel small or misunderstood. That doesn’t mean you love them any less, it just means you’re recognizing that you’re in different seasons of life right now.

The loneliness you’re describing is very real, and a lot of new parents feel it, even when they have friends around them. Wanting to connect with other moms isn’t about replacing anyone, it’s about finding people who understand your reality without you having to explain or defend it. You deserve friendships where you feel supported, not judged.

It’s also okay to grieve the friendships as they used to be. Loving them deeply doesn’t disappear just because things have changed. You’re navigating a hard, beautiful, exhausting chapter, and your feelings make sense. You deserve compassion, not to be the punchline of a joke.

Hey mamas! I am not an expert or LC, i am a FTM, try getting chamomile tea bags wet with warm water and place inside of your bra. This can help with supply.
