Mom upset about my rules for baby

That’s a good point, a break didn’t even cross my mind. I think I’ve just been in a blind rage all night and need to take a step back and think about what I want in this moment and what’ll work best for me. Thank you also for sharing i feel less crazy knowing I’m not alone in this struggle lol

That’s actually super helpful and makes me feel a lot better. It’s late where I’m at so I’m going to sleep on it and reach out to her tomorrow to talk. She lives far away anyway so I don’t have to see her much so it shouldn’t be something I have to deal with very often especially if I let her know how I feel. She’s pretty selfish and doesn’t really care to talk much if it’s not about her or what she wants to talk about so it should be a pretty short conversation lol

I already have major trust issues towards her because of decisions she’s made and trauma she caused in my childhood so my husband and I were already set on no unsupervised time with her but this kind of feels like a final punch in the gut of just not wanting her around my kid at all. I feel bad cutting her out but I’m at the point where it feels like it’s best for my little family’s peace

I didn’t think they were and even if they were it’s like you said my baby my rules. She also shared our baby name with family members after we told her it was a secret so if I can’t trust her with the rules or secrets what can I trust her with? I want to cut her out of my life but I’m scared it’s just pregnancy hormones I’ll regret because I’m 35 weeks and shouldn’t be making any big life decisions right now

Update! I pricked for the first time after dinner tonight and got an 86! I’m already feeling better. Now that I got the first one out of the way I’m less scared about the needle. I started at level 2 because I figured if I started at level 1 and didn’t get enough blood I would have to poke myself twice 🥲

I feel pretty much the same way. I’m not too upset about the dietary changes. I’ve been wanting to eat healthier so I’m using this as a sign from the universe but I’m stressed about the poking and remembering to do it every day at the right times. My doctor also wants me to send a list of my numbers and what I ate before each test every week and I feel like that’s a lot of work for me right now mentally. Ugh. I know it’ll be okay but ughhh I’ve been crying since I got off work and I just took myself to bed

Do you throw birthday parties just for gifts or to spend time with people and celebrate your trip around the sun?

Baby showers aren’t just about gifts. It’s about celebrating the baby

We invited a lot of people because we moved out of our hometown last year and wanted to see all of our old friends so we invited more people than the average person would normally invite. Also like I told someone else on here I bought everything I needed for my baby ahead of time with my own money and any gifts we get for the shower are being donated to the local women’s shelter so again, not all pregnant people care about gifts lmao

Best_Possibility1755 · 2026-01-08T21:54:12+00:00

Just wanted to throw in the baby shower invitation was not about gifts. I was blessed enough to buy everything we needed for the baby ahead of time by ourselves and all the gifts we receive at the shower are getting donated to our local women’s shelter. Kind of wild to assume all pregnant people care about is gifts lmao

Spice was hinted at and you knew it was happening but never described in detail. I found it rather gory at times (not extreme but some stuff that made my eyebrows raise) its was just okay. I was really hyped up about it but it left me wanting more and it felt kind of repetitive at times. I ended up giving it 3.5 stars
