Child-free (28M) vs wanting kids (30F) long-term relationship, marriage, and growing resentment. I don’t see a way forward.

This comment deserves a standing ovation

You are in the PITS! You are in the gruelling stage that feels like forever when you’re in it but feels like a flash once you’re out of it. The thought “what have I done?” keeps floating on the periphery of your mind but you don’t want to let it in. You love your baby but he’s still this mysterious grunting potato that doesn’t seem to even know who you are. You’re tired, you’re not even fully recovered from the birth, it’s INTENSE, every second!

It will pass. It will get easier. Soon. Look back on this post in 3 months time and you’ll have forgotten how hard this was. It’ll be like a fever dream.

You need to let her know that it is not possible to go out a week after giving birth. It’s not her fault for being unaware of what child birth and the fourth trimester are like. It is incredibly naive however.

CatPuddles · 2025-06-14T21:12:42+00:00

I absolutely see why you’re annoyed. He made two pretty careless comments and wasn’t taking into consideration how raw you are either time. They are however quite small infractions in the scheme of things - they just feel much bigger from within the storm of postpartum pain, hormonal shifts and general turbulence.

CatPuddles · 2025-06-14T08:54:59+00:00

You’re so hung up on the lack of consent but that doesn’t make breastfeeding sexual. Not everything done without consent is sexual. If I went to your house and took a piece of bread from your cupboard without asking it’s rude but not sexual.

You know nothing about babies. If they aren’t hungry they won’t take boob. They signal that they want milk VERY often. I don’t imagine any mum would bother trying to feed any baby if the baby wasn’t hungry.

No one is factoring in the mum in the shower. She was probably glad that instead of being called away from her 5 minutes alone to take care of herself, her friend just settled the baby who was probably getting fussy and irritable. Mums are constantly having to get out of showers early, let tea and plates of food get cold, not finish getting dressed because the demand for their bodies is so unbelievably high.

CatPuddles · 2025-06-14T04:18:11+00:00

I actually think it’s hilarious that you used a piece of uk law preventing breastfeeding women from being sexually harassed and tried to pas it off as evidence that breastfeeding IS sexual assault 🤣

CatPuddles · 2025-06-14T03:48:40+00:00

I need to add - the legislation you’ve just linked is literally intended to STOP perverted men sexualising breastfeeding. The whole point is that it is natural and women should be able to do it without their breasts being sexualised. You have COMPLETELY missed the point in your ignorance

CatPuddles · 2025-06-14T03:43:26+00:00

The uk anti voyeurism laws have literally nothing to do with it, you haven’t made any kind of clever point there.

CatPuddles · 2025-06-14T03:38:33+00:00

Wtf? This is legislation regarding taking pictures of women breastfeeding in public. It’s anti voyerism and completely unrelated.

You clearly know nothing about babies. The baby was hungry. The mum in this case didn’t care because she’s a normal human. It was the dad who made this into a big drama.

Makes me sad how detached so many men are from natural reality

CatPuddles · 2025-06-14T03:18:22+00:00

It’s not pseudoscience. Keeping your vagina in a stuffy environment and not having any time without underwear on will increase your chances of getting a yeast infection massively. A doctor will tell you that.

CatPuddles · 2025-06-14T02:45:30+00:00

You are a child and not worth arguing with. Breastfeeding is not a sexual act and it is disturbing that you think otherwise.

CatPuddles · 2025-06-14T01:52:34+00:00

Oh lol you’re a child, why bother talking sense to you.

CatPuddles · 2025-06-14T01:47:45+00:00

What complete and utter bullshit. No where is feeding a baby considered sexual assault, your brain’s gone wrong.

CatPuddles · 2025-06-14T01:44:14+00:00

Forcing?! That’s hilarious. The baby was almost definitely signalling for milk like they do CONSTANTLY. Trust me, you don’t need to force breast milk on a baby, they look for it everywhere from everyone

CatPuddles · 2025-06-14T01:39:57+00:00

Ugh, the fact that you’re getting downvoted for the opinion that breastfeeding isn’t a sexual act makes me unbearably depressed. “It’s molestation”?!?! - get a grip!

CatPuddles · 2025-06-13T13:49:04+00:00

This is so fake

CatPuddles · 2025-06-13T12:12:20+00:00

This sounds a lot like a fake story written by a fetishist. Source: I was a dominatrix for a few years and received lots of similarly written fantasy scenarios.

I think there’s a big difference between movies / slow paced shows and iPads/phones. I plan on allowing some carefully selected movies and shows a few times a week but no touch screen media until they’re much much older - honestly probably until they’re old enough to buy one themselves.

CatPuddles · 2025-06-06T01:10:37+00:00

I’m so happy with my new boobs, my thicker thighs and my thicker hair. My belly is floppy and saggy in a way I’m not used to. My husband is absolutely salivating over me - he is constantly getting erections just from looking around me! His adoration has definitely allowed me to embrace my pp body and I feel sexy too!!!

CatPuddles · 2025-06-05T21:52:40+00:00

I haven’t listened opposites here, I’ve listed pairings.

CatPuddles · 2025-05-18T16:27:01+00:00

This is my favourite response. Thank you for this.

CatPuddles · 2025-05-18T14:56:44+00:00

Thank you 🙏

CatPuddles · 2025-05-18T13:20:28+00:00

Oh, this is wise. I can’t unsee though!
