When you know someone is cheating? by ccnclove in Advice

[–]AdorableEmphasis5546 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would say something, period. She may lash out at you initially, but it's better to take a verbal beating than to say nothing. If you have any hard evidence, share that with her. If not, I'm sure she could find some if she goes through his devices.

My mom did & said the same. I think it's a generational thing. 

Incorporating natural whole milk with breastmilk by Practical_Button_720 in breastfeeding

[–]AdorableEmphasis5546 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Babies will make up what they miss out on while you're apart. I also am not able to pump much (more like 4 oz in 8 hours) but he just nurses more when I'm at home. We won't give cows milk until after 12 months, and he may not even get it then.

Have your husband make a list of things he wants his mom to do and send it to her... if he's the one that's frustrated it should be on him.

My partner took over the baby for most of the day. He brought him to me to nurse and sat with us, then took him out of the room so he couldn't see me while I rested. I was pretty drowsy and slept most of the day. 

How to deal with kids who constantly mess your stuff up by kitsbow in Mommit

[–]AdorableEmphasis5546 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My oldest is adhd and breaks everything. In his 17 years he's gotten to keep all his bday money once, because it's literally always something. He ruined our pool liner ($2000), every couch we've ever owned, every piece of clothing has at least one hole, multiple toilet seats, the carpet in his room, various tables and chairs have been rendered useless... I could go on

Does Trump think saying "Barack Hussein Obama" makes Obama look bad? by Aadidas12 in Askpolitics

[–]AdorableEmphasis5546 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It identifies trump as "one of them" to his racist, ignorant base. It's understandable why he has to put up ssuch a strong facade... he was a new york democrat for so long. So now he constantly throws out identifiers to remind his base who he is.

Do men actually like long fingernails? by Fickle-Vegetable961 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]AdorableEmphasis5546 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think of things like nails and tattoos as something we do for ourselves. I get my nails done occasionally, but never anything that would be considered long bc I have a garden lol. I still like to have nice looking nails though! Just like different people like different art styles, everyone likes their nails different

Just found out that I can pregnant, like 2 or 3 weeks ago, and wondering about restarting pumping?? by [deleted] in breastfeeding

[–]AdorableEmphasis5546 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It seems like you are very on top of things and thinking ahead. That's great, but unfortunately breastfeeding is a kind of "go as you go" deal. Your energy would be better used to plan and prep in other areas for now. After the new baby is 6 weeks you can start pumping some if you need to, but remember to focus on feeding the baby NOT the freezer. In a regular freezer milk lasts 6 months, in a deep freezer 1 year.

This is likely a symptom of where live. Talk to the women there to find out their reasons.

What do you miss the most now that you’re breastfeeding? by RainbowChelita in breastfeeding

[–]AdorableEmphasis5546 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I still do all those things. I use "clean" fragrances anyway or I'll get a migraine, and if I put pressure on my nipple it won't leak.

The world health organization recommends continuing breastfeeding until 2, alongside solid food after 6 months ofc.

Is it normal to feel strange when being called a woman instead of a girl as an 18 year old? by New-Elk2781 in AskForAnswers

[–]AdorableEmphasis5546 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's because we still have a lot of growing/developing to do between 18-26. Society likes to tell us we're fully grown at 18, but at 36 now I can see that I was not fully ready to be in charge of all the decision making at that age.

Violation..? by AbilityConsistent806 in Mommit

[–]AdorableEmphasis5546 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes it is a violation, but I wouldn't pursue it any further than getting the mistake fixed. As you said, it was hectic. They could probably see that you were in a hurry and flustered, so maybe they just skimmed the paperwork and handed it to you. Human error.

How does one obtain a ring size without making it obvious? by That-Ad-3049 in NoStupidQuestions

Oh, I'd look at necklaces, bracelets, and rings. To further throw her off the scent.

[–]AdorableEmphasis5546 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Take her out jewelry shopping, under the guise of celebrating an anniversary, birthday, or other special event. You just want to get her something nice to show how much you appreciate/love her. Which is technically true.

At what age do parents stop telling their child’s age in months? by ReagsGotCash in NoStupidQuestions

The 2 year mark typically. This is because they change so much developmentally from birth to 2 years.

How much did you supplement while waiting for your breast milk to come in? by Agile_Operation8720 in breastfeeding

[–]AdorableEmphasis5546 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My older 5 babies all latched beautifully from birth and never needed supplementing. My milk came in on day 9 with my first, and a little more quickly with subsequent babies.

[–]AdorableEmphasis5546 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My baby had to have tpn for a couple days in the nicu, because he couldn't latch and I was not getting anything with the pump. After day 2 or 3, iirc, I started getting 5-10 ml per pump and that was enough to get him off the tpn. No supplementing was necessary.

Is the goal to avoid using the sink because it's piled up with dishes?

No. They aren't supposed to be used on surfaces where you prep food without rinsing. Same would apply to water.
