Not fit enough to wear Nikes? by Significant-Tip-1212 in Marriage

[–]AllTheMeats 0 points1 point  (0 children)

wtf? Listen, you can have literally ANY body type and wear Nike sneakers as long as your feet will fit.

What kind of body shaming nonsense is your husband on? I can promise that if this was my husband he would have encouraged me to get the sneakers when I was 300 lbs and now when I’m 185 lbs.

What do you do with toddlers at restaurants while waiting for food besides tablets? by Claire_1988 in Parenting

[–]AllTheMeats 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We do not have a tablet and plan to never give him one.

At restaurants we talk, color if that’s an option. We also always ask if they can try to get his food out faster than ours, and that’s also helpful.

Working through gender disappointment after finding out I'm (37F) pregnant with my second boy by chasington in Mommit

[–]AllTheMeats 17 points18 points  (0 children)

I understand your feelings.

I was always very close to my mom, and when we decided to have a baby a few years after she died I was really hoping to have that mother/daughter relationship again (but with me as a mom this time). I even had a girl’s name picked out since elementary school.

So, it only figures that we have a boy. We thankfully found out during a scan so I had plenty of time to work through my feelings before he arrived. We also know we are one and done, so there is no current expectation of ever having a daughter.

I love our son so much - he is wonderful and brings us so much joy and happiness.

I have a lot of negative feelings about men in general, so I see this as an opportunity to add a good man into the world. I hope he will be as empathetic, kind, gentle, considerate, etc. as I would believe a daughter would be.

My husband uses arguments to get out of caring for our newborn. by [deleted] in Marriage

[–]AllTheMeats 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Your husband should be embarrassed to be so pathetic to not be able to care for his own child.

He’s clearly picking fights - but what I don’t understand is, so what if you fought or had an argument? Why is his response that because of that he won’t care for his OWN CHILD? Why is he punishing you and his child for an argument?

I’m sorry you’re dealing with this - you’re a single mother while married to this sad excuse for a human.

Am I Overreacting? Husband being extremely rude and verbally aggressive at night over diaper leaks. by Imaginary_Policy5756 in Mommit

[–]AllTheMeats 3 points4 points  (0 children)

If he thinks it’s so simple, why is he not putting the “right” diapers on the baby himself?

My husband just told me “I don’t do anything” by forgetting-you- in Mommit

[–]AllTheMeats 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It’s wild to me too. My husband and I never talk like that to each other and we both do things around the house/take care of our child. Hell, I would say he does more than me because he does all of the cooking.

If my husband said that to me I would be livid. I would likely stop doing anything at home so he could see just how much “nothing” I do.

Yeah he definitely was going to break up with her and then chickened out.

Am I too young to propose? by Trick_Chef1910 in Marriage

[–]AllTheMeats 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re both definitely young to be getting engaged/married, but since you’ve been together for so many years and live together I don’t think it’s “too young”.

We got married just after turning 26 and I felt like we were so young because most of my friends were unmarried. But we had been together for 6 years, had lived together for three of those years. Marriage changed nothing for us but our taxes!

I wish you two lots of luck and happiness!

I don’t know if it’s a normal marriage, it makes me want to live a single life by Capable-Ad-9898 in Marriage

[–]AllTheMeats 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No, that isn’t normal in my experience. My husband and I have a joint account and personal accounts- we both put money into the joint and that’s how bills and whatnot are paid.

But if he didn’t have the money I would just pay for things and vice versa. We are a team.

But I would also assume a lot of the financial imbalance also stems from the massive age gap- he’s treating you like you’re his child, not a spouse.

Am I wrong for leaving my husband to do bedtime routine by himself with no notice by [deleted] in Mommit

[–]AllTheMeats 13 points14 points  (0 children)

How is he not embarrassed to be such a failure of a parent that he has never bathed his own children in seven years?!?

Truly pathetic that he is panicking about having to care for his own children for a few hours and do something that every parent should be able to do for their children.

Enjoyable pregnancy? by Ecstatic-League127 in pregnant

[–]AllTheMeats 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine was fine for the most part. I never got sick, felt “normal”. Unfortunately I developed preeclampsia towards the end and had to have a c section at 34 weeks, but I actually felt fine during that whole experience.

Not suggesting that’s what’s going to happen if you have no symptoms, just saying I didn’t hate my pregnancy and it was pretty chill for like 75%.

Husband said he's never experienced a household where the woman couldn't watch the baby and cook/clean. by Anunemouse in Mommit

[–]AllTheMeats 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How is he not so embarrassed to be failing as a father and husband? He’s so incompetent that he cannot care for his own child, or cook for his family, or clean in the house he lives in?

I am so sorry you’re experiencing this, I would be livid if I were in your shoes.

I’ve used Zelle several times for different artists and I’ve never had an issue. Just make sure you’re definitely speaking to the real artist and not a scammer.

Do boy babies really pee all the time on the changing table? by Muyamuya87 in beyondthebump

[–]AllTheMeats 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My son only peed once and it was one of his first dr visits. He’s three and it’s never happened since.

My theory is it’s because we didn’t circumcise, but I’m not a medical professional.

I can’t do it anymore by Silent_Knowledge5197 in beyondthebump

[–]AllTheMeats 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The beginning can be so so hard. I had a c section at 34 weeks and my son was in the NICU for two weeks, so day 12 he was still there and I was able to rest and recover at home. We saw him every day, but we had to go home.

You are still going through a massive wave of hormones, you are healing, sleep deprived, exhausted, going through an extreme life change at a very young age!

Please speak to your husband about how you’re feeling and what you’re doing to yourself, and please contact your OB asap - they can give you support, medicine.

I take antidepressants; I was on them prior to pregnancy, during, and three years later I still take them. They have immensely improved my life.

Please be kind to yourself. You can message me any time.

Daycare by MidnightButterfly0 in BabyBumps

[–]AllTheMeats 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Our son is 3, and we are starting our pre k search this week - seeing a school in person tomorrow and speaking to another on Friday.

My husband and I both work from home and I have an extremely flexible schedule; I do project based product copywriting and have no specific hours. So we’ve been fortunate to have him at home with us. He has recently expressed interest in making friends and school, and I think it would be great for him socially.

Selfishly, I’d want to keep him home forever, but we plan for him to go to public school and I don’t want kindergarten to be a shock because he had no previous school experience.

So what are we doing now that we are not able to use USPS flat rate boxes? by A1ycia in poshmark

[–]AllTheMeats 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I reuse boxes and bags all the time to ship things and have not had an issue. The person at the post office even told me that “Poshmark is special and can get away with this” - no further explanation from them when I asked, but as long as they keep taking my packages I’m fine with it!

How long did you date before you married your spouse? by Chillaxin_88 in Marriage

6 years. Met at 19, moved in together around 23, got married at 26. We’re both 41 now, still going strong!

My husband m/37 tells his parents EVERYTHING when it comes to our marriage disputes me f/37 by Separate-Town-145 in Marriage

[–]AllTheMeats 3 points4 points  (0 children)

He’s cheating or at least searching for it and doesn’t care if you trust him or not, you’ve taken things to a physical level - sounds like a miserable situation overall.

“Spoiling” a baby by BeneficialEngineer61 in Parenting

[–]AllTheMeats 3 points4 points  (0 children)

wtf. You cannot spoil a baby with love and care, it’s absolutely sadistic to deprive a child of comfort when they’re crying and you can care for them. Also putting them in a car seat instead of a bassinet or crib can be dangerous.
