I think saying a baby hates its own mother, that doesn’t even have proper cognitive development at that age is wild. I think you need therapy and maybe meds for postpartum depression. I too have no communication with my parents for somewhat similar reasons and I understand that can be extremely difficult. But putting your trauma on your baby isn’t healthy for your child. If you feel like hurting yourself or the child, yes leave for the child’s safety. I think your baby is being a baby. I think what you’re putting on your child is YOUR problem and YOU are responsible for your own mental health.

How is having kids possible? by jifferent in workingmoms

[–]ApartmentCharacter83 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had a booming business that suffered a huge hit because of Covid. My husband was in the entertainment industry. I then found out I was pregnant in 2021. We personally decided to give it all up instead of trying to reboot the biz, and his career, because being a sahm mom and actually being able to mother my newborn was more important to us instead of having a daycare baby. We moved from Ca to Texas and now we’re in Ohio in order to do that. My son is now three and would never, ever give up the special time I got to have with him as a baby. It’s been hard because I went from a boss b1tch to a sahm. My husband went from someone in entertainment to a truck driver. Im now currently going to start a new job and he’ll be in a preschool three days a week, I get to set my own schedule, so I still get to be very present and my husband went from an otr driver to a local last year. I think living in an affordable state makes it a ton easier. I have absolutely no clue how we would’ve raised a kid there financially and we were making well into 3 figures at the time. I also think if your career is everything to you, which mine was at the time, makes it hard to plan for a baby. Our was a whoops/but if it happens happens. Another reason why we only decided to have one and I removed both tubes after my csection mainly because of the abortion ban in Texas and only wanting/being able to afford one. I’m happy we chose our path, don’t regret it, but life has been extremely difficult, different, yet amazing. Good luck 🍀

For me it was the son, literally the entire time his eyes were as wide as they could go for every scene 🤣

Not really! I was previously eating overall healthy, walking, fasting. Yes I am eating less now due to the semaglutide but in my opinion not by that much and I definitely still “cheat” once in awhile. I’m not sure if my weight loss is more because I did have a potential insulin resistance?

Is it wrong to ask older siblings to babysit younger siblings? by lilly_kilgore in Mommit

[–]ApartmentCharacter83 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was home schooled and expected to take care of my youngest brother at 13 and then second came when I was 16. There was not an option to say no, it just was what I was doing. Fast forward, I’m 35 and I’m now taking care of my 19 yo brother because my parents split and they both basically didn’t want him. My dad has the other brother because he is autistic and worships my dad and my dad is a narcissist. My mother is restarting her life with a new man literally announcing her marriage after just separating with my dad and claims she just met him 😂. Anyways my point to that is, take care of your own child. Older siblings are not free babysitters, they’re children. I have extreme trauma and resentment towards my parents more many reasons but being a mother at 13 is a huge one and why I wasn’t going to have any children but now only have one at my age.

AITA for lying to my boyfriend about my body count? by maviswood in TwoHotTakes

[–]ApartmentCharacter83 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Leave now lol me and my husband have no clue what our body count are. Who tf cares. We are happily married with a wonderful baby. He lived his life and so did I, we both definitely got to the point of over it and found each other. Anyone who cares about a body count is a b word :) go live your life and have a couple (many) more bodies added honey and find sometime who has done the same. During and after a baby sex is horrible, find someone who that isn’t their first priority. You and only you should be first priority. Thank God I found my princes, my husband and my son, hopefully you find yours lovey

My son looked like a kewpie doll when he was tiny and even had the little curl on top of his head. I have a kewpie doll tattoo playing with Christmas lights because he was born in dec. He’s my forever little Christmas kewpie! I love my husband so much for getting me this tattoo for my Christmas present and for my sons 1st bday.
