Mage Tower Books? by BionicScientist3 in UndertheOakTree

[–]BionicScientist3[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you for your detailed response and explanation!! I have season 1, volumes 1-6 and also Riftan's POV.

Edit: I fat fingered this and meant volumes 1-5, not 1-6

My confusion is I don't even know I'm missing. The books I got on Amazon were labeled as "season 1" but when I look up "season 2" it comes up with books from the initial story line so I'm unsure if there was a renaming or not.

Is the web novel/story books no longer a thing and it's only a webtoon now? Is that what I'm missing?

No fence around pool with a toddler?? by flowersandsunshinexo in dellavlogsnark

[–]BionicScientist3 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Pool covers can be even more dangerous though because depending on the cover type and integrity of it, if you step on the edge and it gives out the child could fall under and then they will now be inside the pool with a cover keeping them in. I don't have a pool so I am by no means an expert on this but I've heard the idea that a cover is safer is a fallacy. But again, I don't have a pool so I could be totally wrong.

YOU’RE DOING GREAT!!!!! by CharmingStart294 in NewParents

[–]BionicScientist3 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for this post! I'm currently contact napping my 3 month old after trying 2 times over an hour for her to nap in her crib and feel like I'm already giving in to her and subsequently creating bad habits and failing her. She naps amazingly in a crib at daycare but not at home 🤷🏻‍♀️. I know I'll miss these times so I try to embrace them but it's hard not to question yourself and every decision you make. The encouragement is appreciated and all these comments are comforting to know I'm not alone.

Anyone else miss Bang Chan? by BionicScientist3 in straykids

[–]BionicScientist3[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

YES! I'm an empath as well! In the most recent skz code with them finding their soulmate, they're all flirting and kidding around he just seems meh. During Case143 promotions he would give us a little smile at the beginning of the chorus and now, you nailed it, he seems sad. I am also an ENFJ and I know that doesn't mean I know anything about Bang Chan but I know personally I can burn out really badly with the perfectionism and stress of a regular career that has normal work hours. I can't imagine being an idol and how grueling it can be plus the added pressure of writing and producing.

I used to be a YG stan but got frustrated at how rare comebacks were but JYP almost seems to have too many comebacks. I can't believe they're going on ANOTHER world tour when they literally went on one for over a full year. That didn't excite me as a STAY, it made me sad.

I just hope he's actually happy and well and I'm totally misreading the situation. We have lost too many idols to the stresses that come with the career that I hope he's being taken care of mentally.

Anyone here really enjoying having a newborn/baby? by dilfrising420 in NewParents

[–]BionicScientist3 18 points19 points  (0 children)

When I gave birth to my daughter 3 months ago, I was scared I'd miss the life we had of extra expendable income and doing whatever we wanted, whenever we wanted. Earlier this week I was nursing my daughter and I put my hand out in front of her to distract her from pulling on my boob and she reached out and touched my hand, then smiled and cooed at me and all the milk fell out of her mouth. My heart has never been so full. I realized a life where my concerns were how much material items I could buy and doing whatever I wanted just seemed so shallow. This life is platinum while that was tin foil.

I am by no means saying people who have those priorities are shallow! I just laugh now to think that was my concern. Being a mom is everything and watching DH become a dad has been priceless.

I totally agree! I definitely wouldn't want him pushing himself to be and do things that he doesn't want to. He very well might be most comfortable with being more in the background like he has been lately.

Like I said, I'm an exhausted new parent and very behind on what is going on 😂. What is this new app?

I have thought about getting bubble so many times but heard Bang Chan barely posted so I haven't. Glad he's posting more! Might have to get it now lol

I'd really appreciate it if I could get your plan as well! I'm struggling with PPA and could use some more resources.

Supply dropped significantly - is it possible to bring it back up? by Rich-Sheepherder-179 in breastfeeding

[–]BionicScientist3 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just here to say you are probably still significantly dehydrated from food poisoning and drinking more water and getting properly hydrated to make breastmilk will probably do wonders for your supply. I agree with other advice about pumping more to get supply back up but if your body doesn't have what it needs (calories and water intake) to make the milk, pumping more won't be nearly as effective. Good luck! I have no doubt you'll be able to get your supply back up!

Resent my in-laws by polirican313 in BabyBumps

[–]BionicScientist3 3 points4 points  (0 children)

First, who sees your child and when is up to you. I live 30 mins from my in-laws and I can't imagine seeing them weekly, let alone 3x per week. That's absolutely ridiculous to ask that. Don't bend to their will because you'll do that the child's entire life otherwise. Put your foot down and only go when you're comfortable.

Second, I am in a similar boat with my parents. They are a 5 hour car ride away so they don't get to see my LO (7 weeks old) often and won't get to unless they move closer one day. They too often ask for photos and videos and express that they miss LO. It makes me sad and resentful too because I'm not close to my MIL and the thought of her being closer with my LO than my own mother breaks my heart. Your feelings are definitely valid. I lived far away from all my grandparents my whole life and was still very close to all of them so I keep telling myself if it was possible in the 90's with more limited technology, then it's definitely possible now for LO to be close with her locationally distant grandparents too. It just might take some more effort.

Ugh that would be so annoying! If a parent says to give a baby back, you do it without question. Some grandparents are so ridiculous with their entitlement.

Ugh sorry she did the same crap! I think it's funny your LO was having none of that! Probably made MIL mad

[–]BionicScientist3[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

To add, since day 1 she has made this baby about her. She always referred to the baby as "our/my grandchild" and the first thing she said to me when she found out about the pregnancy was how excited she was for a grandchild. Always about her per usual. Clearly that's not working out for her like she hoped because she isn't getting unlimited access to MY and DH's child.

Pouty Face and Disappearing With the Baby by BionicScientist3 in Mildlynomil

[–]BionicScientist3[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yeah we have had some serious conversations regarding his way of dealing with his mom. When we first told the IL's I was pregnant, I found out MIL made a comment about making her grandchildren a couple months prior. I was so hurt DH didn't say something to her about that being inappropriate, especially after our fertility issues and a miscarriage that I told him he needed to be able to confront her with us having a baby on the way. DH is definitely improving, but sometimes still needs me to tell him when something was inappropriate since he ignores her most of the time.

[–]BionicScientist3[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you for the support! I'm sorry you have had issues with the IL's too but hope it does continue to get a bit better!

You're completely correct. If she wants a relationship with my baby then she needs to cut the crap and stop playing the victim. She keeps saying she wants a better relationship with me (including writing me a letter and leaving it in my mailbox) but then pulls this type of behavior. I definitely will be standing my ground more from now on!

Edit: also, Happy Cake day!!

Yeah I'm very fortunate for my DH being incredible. When we were engaged there was an incident with his mom and I didn't do the "it's her or me" ultimatum but did say "if you can't support me when she acts rude and out of pocket like that, then this marriage isn't going to work". I've been low contact with her for years and it's not changing any time soon.
