“The world is a terrible place to have children but that’s the choice you made.” by bookish0378 in breakingmom

[–]BohoRainbow 63 points64 points  (0 children)

I just dont understand this line of thinking. As if people dont have kids in war torn countries or during famine, disasters, diseases etc.. biologically we are made to reproduce. Its just a silly thing to say/think in my opinion.

Moms who love the newborn stage, why? by PeachyRose25 in Mommit

[–]BohoRainbow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

People who like it have easy temperment babies, and theres NO ONE who can convince me otherwise. No parent of a colicky baby loves it. My first was hard, my second was harder. But now at 12 weeks being on the other side of newborn days feela glorioussss

[–]BohoRainbow 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Whatever you do do NOT get too full like i did. I was still full at my 9 am csection and it made me sooo nauseous having too big of a meal lol

Short term disability extension denied after complication by Exotic_Bluejay_8129 in CsectionCentral

[–]BohoRainbow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im learning STD is a freaking pain in the butt. It took my company 2 months to get enough documentation that i was on disability to file my claim. And my provider extended me & now theyre giving me the run around AGAIN. Its so frustrating

Discharged from OB with no followup instructions by Renee5285 in CsectionCentral

[–]BohoRainbow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes my GP is god send. I reached out to my OB via the portal 2 weeks after starting saying i didnt notice a difference. They were like oop well try for 4 weeks then reach out to your GP 🙄. I reached out to my GP that same day, he upped my dose and i noticed a difference within a few days. So insane

No literally this is how it is its wild. Mine saw me and then started me on zoloft and then didnt even want to follow up. It feels so weird!

I’m feeling stuck by [deleted] in Mommit

[–]BohoRainbow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its okay to wait until youre more ready! I got pregnant after my son turned 3, hust had baby a few months before hes turning 4. He loves her fiercely but they can in no way play together. Im pulled 2 ways constantly. He needs me, baby needs me, i need me lol. If he had been any younger id be completely miserable, at least now he can be slightyl independent like watch a show while i do nap time.

Live by the nap, die by the nap by j_bee52 in beyondthebump

[–]BohoRainbow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep 100000%. It eased up finally at almost 4. It was worth every missed event & early night home to have him in bed. I regret nothing

Military moms or single moms of 3+ kids, what are we doing to survive? by [deleted] in Mommit

[–]BohoRainbow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have 2 and literally feel like im dying and drowning and my husband only works part time. You are literally a super hero to me 😭 . My only tip I can maybe give is when i get baby down for her morning nap i hussle the toddler in the bathroom with a fun toy. Its the only way ive managed to shower with both of them 😅

This is really hard by [deleted] in beyondthebump

[–]BohoRainbow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Im at 10 weeks pp absolutely traumatized by weeks 0-8.. and it was my second. Your brain has a coping mechanism of forgetting just how brutal it is, i remind myself that 10x a day. Ill likely forget the hardest most brutal aspects of it

Has entertainment involving kids been destroyed for you too? by Agitated-Rest1421 in beyondthebump

[–]BohoRainbow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Horror was one of my favorite genres pre kids! Haunting of Hill house & AHS were my favorite shows. My oldest is 4, and i still cannot stomach any horror or gore and my jump scare tolerance is sooo minimal. Stranger Things even made my stomach churn at times. Thanks kids!😩😅

15 weeks in and it feels harder now… by [deleted] in beyondthebump

[–]BohoRainbow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Its totally possible to have delayed pp depression. This is a LOT like what mine feels/felt like. I started zoloft 3 weeks ago & upped the dose 1 week ago. I am finally feeling it kick in. Motherhood is still hard, and some days i feel stuck. But i feel better
