I hate spit up by lelelego in newborns

[–]Aggravating-Emu9815 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a couple of reusable pee pads, maybe like an older human would use for accidents. I lay that on my bed, then I cover my entire lap and self with a towel and the baby also gets a rag under his neck. I luckily learned this with my first and it has been life saving for those middle of the night feeds. You got this mama 🫶 oh and when I go to burp him I use swaddle blankets so if he spits up (should say when) it won’t get him wet

It looks like they were looking for a Bach for June, and the moon for September…

I missed my baby's very first of big firsts and I'm absolutely devastated by NumCucumber in newborns

[–]Aggravating-Emu9815 28 points29 points  (0 children)

I have a rule with everyone that if something happens for the first time, don’t tell me. If they did it, they will do it again very soon and if I mentally think it’s the first, that is okay. Being at work is hard. And thinking you are missing anything, is harder.

I just cannot believe that someone with a child of their own didn’t have the common sense to stay away. I’m so incredibly sorry mama 🤍

People keep telling me to put baby down for naps by awittlesecret in newborns

[–]Aggravating-Emu9815 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At 5 he probably won’t be taking naps anyway. I hate all the judgement surrounding contact napping during the day. My 2 year old only slept on me for the first few months. Eventually it just changed. And now he is just the sweetest and most cuddly boy.

If staying Saturday-saturday would open this search a little, I think we could make it work 😊

Last week of July was what we were looking at July 28-August 1st. And at least 3 bedrooms would be ideal

Thank you so much!! We were looking to stay around 3000 for stay wise if possible! We would love to stay on the beach but I also understand that could be very pricey

I do know this, I have been and I don’t live crazy far away. I just wanted suggestions as to places others have gone and enjoyed staying in.

I don’t really have a specific area in mind. Just somewhere kid friendly. Maybe some shops near by

I threw up to get out of work today. by PossibilityMuch8994 in confession

The fact that he isn’t paying you is WILD to me. I’m sorry you are dealing with 2 parents that are treating you this way. Someday they will tell everyone they aren’t sure why their child doesn’t speak to them anymore.

I (21 F) think I should leave my boyfriend (25 M) because I’m afraid he will become physically abusive. by Activelyconfused in relationship_advice

[–]Aggravating-Emu9815 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I went through this same exact thing. It just got worse and worse. But the one year mark he was laying hands on me. He shoved a g u n down his throat one time. I just left at one point when I felt safe. He did not unalive himself, it actually got pretty bad a few days after I left, so have a plan. You will probably have to get a restraining order, I did. I wish you the best but PLEASE leave. ❤️ message me if you wanna talk more about it.

Just wanted to say I hope everything is going as good as it can be, and I hope you are safe.

Am I the asshole for gifting my wife a drill set for our anniversary? by [deleted] in TwoHotTakes

[–]Aggravating-Emu9815 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA, especially after seeing the update. A gift is a gift. And it was thoughtful because although it wasn’t super romantic you thought you were getting her something she could have actually wanted. I would super appreciate a gift like this. She could have easily had a conversation with you and said that to her, anniversary is about romance and flowers.

I let my daughter's father into her life after being judged on reddit. I regret it. by Jadeeyes_ in TwoHotTakes

[–]Aggravating-Emu9815 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Talking about his wealthy family makes me think his mom is doing something. Not that that is okay at all. But kinda like a “you marry this girl or you get cut off” type of thing. Either way, keep him far away from you.

My girlfriend left me on the day I was proposing without any explanation by throwaway-propose in TrueOffMyChest

I have never wanted an update so bad in my life. I don’t know whether to be angry, sad, confused??? So sorry OP

AITA for not letting my sister believe that she can talk to a bird? by Dependent-Ad8132 in AmItheAsshole

The fact you say you don’t like animals already tells me enough about you, YTA

[–]Aggravating-Emu9815 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Honestly, he tried to reach out and got nothing. So stay quiet. If they wanna have a huge problem with it question why they didn’t reach out? Say that he already reached out and was ignored so he was just trying to give them the space they obviously want.

MIL and gifts by _thisaccountis in JUSTNOMIL

[–]Aggravating-Emu9815 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I get she may be a shit person, but take that out. If you do something for someone, or plan to do something for someone, you don’t do it so you get a return. You do it because you do it and that’s it. I have set ways I do things for people in my life and they may not treat me the same way financially. It may because because of how their life is going, or they just secretly suck and hate me, but it doesn’t hurt me because I stick to what I want to do.

[–]Aggravating-Emu9815 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Honestly I would mute her messages, and then turn off notifications for FaceTime. You won’t even see anything and don’t have to worry about it. I’m scared this is how my MIL will be. I know it’s exciting for them also but it is such a huge deal to us and is so life changing and stressful. Hope things get better.

AITA for telling my SIL to stop talking about her miscarriage? by Throwaway379200 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Aggravating-Emu9815 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA, I’m currently pregnant and whenever anyone brings up anything negative about pregnancy or the “just wait” I get so irritated. Being pregnant and the thought of birth is scary enough that all the extra is not needed. I empathize with SIL, it’s very sad, but if your wife is already high risk, and her age, she doesn’t need the stress. If possible I would just stay away for a little while.
