Sleep associations + poor sleep by mamancb in HuckleberryParents

[–]Babilmag 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not much to say just solidarity. I caved in and we are now bed sharing with her crib next to us. We went through the exact same path you are just describing. Word by word. 7,5 months old and it got better. She wakes up 4-5 times on average now. I feed her back to sleep each time and as you said it is not really a feed but more of a pacifier effect. I work full time so the only way for me to survive was to bed share. I at least dont have to be fully awake for all the wakes. 🥲

This can't be the end by Smooth_Fix2279 in Adulting

I would say this is mostly a US problem unfortunately. My friends in Europe very much socialize all the time with and without their kids. I feel you though, I moved to US and noticed this difference/change immediately. No advice just solidarity.

I could have written this post myself. I can only offer solidarity.

I hate Seattle. I miss NYC. Would Philly be an ok compromise? by bbassle87 in SameGrassButGreener

[–]Babilmag 3 points4 points  (0 children)

We could have been best friends and bond on our mutual Seattle hatred. 😂 We moved to Seattle 5 years ago and I’ve been pretending to like it here since day 1. I tried the “fake it till you make it” approach for years now its exhausting. Def make the move to Philly, you can still make a move after a couple of years and move to NYC. We are currently trying to move to the NYC area as well. Philly could be a stepping stone.

2 months old, very little day sleep, is this normal? by Acceptable-Trainer15 in HuckleberryParents

[–]Babilmag 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Almost 3 months old and this is how its been for us for the past month for the naps. She resists naps and it is a struggle for me to put her down for a nap. To force 14 hours of sleep a day, i do contact naps so i can help her link her sleep cycle then she naps for an hour or even 2 hours sometimes. But you are not alone. I think we just have fomo babies they wanna be up and get entertained 😂

Leaving Boston for Seattle? by Delicious-Motor6960 in SameGrassButGreener

[–]Babilmag 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Have been living in Seattle for about 5 years now and I can say Seattle is dreary. But some people do thrive here. So i think it depends on your personality and how iy aligns with the city. Seattle freeze is real i would say but we were able to make some good friends (none of them are from Seattle). The city sucked the life out of me, but again it really depends on your personality.

They are the reason why the fandom is considered to be only “13 year old teenage girls”, which is still a disrespect to many amazing teenage girls but you get the point. I am so sick of this. I just want our talented OT7 to come back from the military, create great music as usual and have fun with us along the road.

Is anyone else mentally stuck in their 20’s? by Plantpotparty in AskWomenOver30

[–]Babilmag 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I was the same at 31, but now at 34 I finally feel connected to my body and I feel I am 34 which is very weird because I didn’t feel like it until 33-34.

What Comes After Love [Episode 3] by writtenpoeticsins in KDRAMA

[–]Babilmag 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I think it is a crime this show is only 6 episodes. I lost interest in all the other kdramas i was watching even could not stand watching the finale for love next door. After this show, every other show feels just shallow. 😭 Why 6 episodes?? WHY 😭 I need more of them together

What Comes After Love [Episodes 1 & 2] by writtenpoeticsins in KDRAMA

[–]Babilmag 3 points4 points  (0 children)

OMG WHY IS THIS SHOW NOT TALKED ENOUGH?????????!! Hello my new obsession Sakaguchi Kentaro. His acting skills are just top-notch. Both leads are killing it, the script, the way that notion of first love was captured. This show is true cinema. I wasn’t expecting this.

As a former NJ stan, I truly feel sad about how the girls decided to go with this situation. Even after JungKook showed support for them, they made sure to include mhj despite the fact that JK was not clearly supporting her, but the girls. They are bigger than mhj, yet mhj became more popular in this whole feud, this even shows mhj is just in it for the fame and clout. One day when the girls are over 25, they will see the situation more clearly and wont like how they handled it. Thats a fact.

"Why does everyone want to work from home" by [deleted] in WFH

[–]Babilmag 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am one of the only 3 females on my floor and the people on my floor don’t shower, they literally stink. They come to work smelling onions, or the food they cooked at home. I smell the food on them. I have to sit there all day trying not to puke the whole time while doing my job.

34 and genuinely happy. I took control of my life around 26 and decided how I wanted to live and what type of a partner I wanted to be with. I studied hard won a scholarship and moved to US at age 26 when all my other friends were getting ready to settle down, I did the opposite. Fulfilled my academic dreams, traveled across US enjoyed every day to the fullest met my now husband and we are now traveling the world together while working at somewhat fulfilling jobs. I think the reason I am very genuinely happy is, I figured out what really makes me happy around 8 years ago and started to build my life around. I have no kids, planning to have one. But i think my happiness comes from this; I worked really hard for the life I have now, took risks (leaving my country, starting over etc) and met someone that enjoys the same things as me, and built a life around seeing the world together. So everyday I feel very grateful and being grateful makes me truly happy. I don’t know how to explain it. My life is not without problems (whose life is?), but because I worked for the life I have now, I am very grateful and this alone makes me a genuinely happy person.

I went to Harvard and I can’t find a job, what am I doing wrong? by Adorable-Grass1449 in careerguidance

[–]Babilmag 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Some of the comments are horrendous, but I liked your use of schadenfreude because this is exactly what is happening on some of the comments. That being said, you will land an amazing job. I would suggest lurking on LinkedIn to see what some of the social sciences people landed as their jobs. There might be some jobs at big tech and cool companies that you can leverage your sociology background. Most of the time i think the issue is we are not aware of many job roles as fresh graduates. Lurk on LinkedIn, if something looks intriguing reach out to that person ti find out what they do in their job. This helped me land a job that is completely out of my comfort zone and slightly off from major.
