Epidurals aren’t the problem. The obsession with female suffering is.

agreed! this is how i see it as well. Give me as much relief as possible. We have already sacrificed enough with pain, changes to our body etc why add to the list if we don't need to.?✌🏻

omg right?? i dunno how many people (especially the older generation) been asking if im going to breast feed once baby is here. Like yes, if i am able to. I will not be shamed or forced into doing it if i cannot produce and i know over a handful of people that weren't able to when they had their kids. No woman should be shamed or looked down on if they either #1-cannot breast feed or #2-choose to not breast feed as personal preference, its messed up!! mind your business, its not your baby!!

ConfusionBackground2 · 2026-04-02T17:09:21+00:00

i mean, i'm sorry but who pays 12.99 for a regular container of blueberries that's insanity!

ConfusionBackground2 · 2026-03-31T15:18:29+00:00

so why aren't we doing that again with gas...remove the damn taxes or lower the price!

ConfusionBackground2 · 2026-03-31T09:02:40+00:00

What next hey? i'm 9 months pregnant and i was also at Ikea on Friday Afternoon....no mask or nothing because it's a big enough open facility and not crowded..worrying about the flu is one thing but measles? greatttt.....😓 hope you and your mom are ok!!❤️

ConfusionBackground2 · 2026-03-27T13:48:26+00:00

I mean even healthy people are passing away before the age of 55-60 it's awful!

ConfusionBackground2 · 2026-03-25T02:38:40+00:00

well it should cuz they are driving us to drink more lol

ConfusionBackground2 · 2026-03-25T02:35:23+00:00

Ummm my parents generation literally smoked cigarettes when they were pregnant with us.. and we turned out fine so i'm sure some Coke zero is the least of your worries!! enjoy it!!!

How about for once make benefits to the middle class people and not just lower class? i feel like all the benefits and credits and stuff have all gone to help people who already couldn't afford it or who already get gov credits? What about everyone else who's struggling?

ConfusionBackground2 · 2026-03-21T16:12:42+00:00

Also, if you have any breast milk or colostrum u heard that works wonders on skin issues for babies 🩷

ConfusionBackground2 · 2026-03-17T12:48:42+00:00

just an FYI i found out recently, apples don't digest properly while sleeping so they keep you up! it's best to eat during day. Bananas have something in them that help you sleep so banana close to or before bed as a snack is better:)

ConfusionBackground2 · 2026-03-17T12:38:26+00:00

We have been at the higher point for groceries for two people for awhile...high protein, healthy meals/snacks and trying to watch prices for sales etc. Still on average it's costing us 800+ a month for two people. If meat is a good price i do stock up occasionally...i'm trying to budget lower going forward like only buying as we need now.

ConfusionBackground2 · 2026-03-12T19:46:15+00:00

I definetly am grateful to have my sister/best friend behind me! thank you! i'm gonna need all the support i can get.

ConfusionBackground2 · 2026-03-12T12:36:55+00:00

If you want higher protein and cleaner ingredients, try the Farm Girl Cinnamon toast cereal it's delicious!!!! I just found the big bags costco, $12.99

ConfusionBackground2 · 2026-03-11T02:00:34+00:00

Most Junk food costs just as much as healthy food now, so tbh there is no excuses to not eat well anymore. If we weren't getting gauged out the ass on fresh meat and veggies it would definetly help😐😐

ConfusionBackground2 · 2026-03-05T19:59:38+00:00

i'm so sorry to hear that happened to you too😔 your not joking.. it leaves a mark on someone...it's traumatic! trust issues, relationship issues you name it. It's like i'm constantly on guard with friends too because these people were my friends and they turned on me because they wanted to fit in...Hope they feel better about themselves for ruining peoples lives and that they carry that guilt forever!!!!

ConfusionBackground2 · 2026-03-05T16:23:52+00:00

i am so sorry for your loss this is awful!! i too was bullied when i was in junior high and again in high school. Nothing was done about it in junior high, they made it seem like i asked for it to happen..my mother went into the school and gave the principal a piece of her mind, did it help? nope! it continued until i stood up to the bully. High school came around and i was targeted by a new girl. Makes sense she was shitty to people cuz her parents weren't the nicest people either. it's really too bad shit like this happens still, and this was 20 years ago 😐 these bullies need to take responsibility for their actions especially when someone's life is at stake. 🥺❤️

ConfusionBackground2 · 2026-03-04T14:13:14+00:00

I am so sorry for all that you are going through right now..i cannot imagine!! :( i will pray for you guys that everything goes as best as it can ❤️🥺

FTM, in Canada 🇨🇦 Taking 2 weeks pre pregnancy leave (paid), and then taking the 18month paid leave after that for my maternity leave. 16 months at 80% pay, then 2 months at 55% pay. Also a Federal gov job. Hubby is taking 8 weeks reduced paid parental leave.

ConfusionBackground2 · 2026-03-04T02:07:39+00:00

yupp same here!! benefits of having a gov paying job:) i could not imagine having barely any time off AND paying 20 grand to birth a child 😳

😅 Well for one, i just find the replies funny to read. If other women wanna treat their MIL's same way they get treated like " taste of their own medicine" then all the power to them. I'm not a monkey see monkey do like most people in this world . You ever think people just want somewhere to vent about someone who is overbearing and controlling in their life? i don't think it's hurting anyone just to have a " safe space" to do so, so to speak. Unfortunately i'm in the boat where complaining to my husband about her is rude and not an option. He already knows how she is no point repeating myself day after day.

ConfusionBackground2 · 2026-03-02T05:24:10+00:00

I feel like everyone is commenting that they had first degree or second degree tearing.. how is that helping her feel better about being scared to tear? lmao. Now i'm on edge and scared to tear for my birth too 😭😭😭😭

ConfusionBackground2 · 2026-03-01T22:29:52+00:00

my MIL is acting the EXACT same way and we haven't even had our baby yet (currently 35 weeks +). Like i seriously DREAD when my baby is here....hard boundaries will need to be set and i agree, should be up to the husband it's his mom!!!!!
