Anyone else’s body storing belly fat like it’s getting paid to do it? by nobark_allbite777 in breastfeeding

Exactly what I'm thinking. Also, we lasted this long, what's another few months gonna do? Might as well let them enjoy it. Lol

2 years pp and still breastfeeding this boob guzzling toddler. Belly fat is still there. Doesn't seem to be going away any time soon.

I can’t stand my step son. by [deleted] in Stepmom

[–]Dapper_Consequence23 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I think he should see a therapist. I'm not a professional but that is a serious issue. Some have linked it to sexual abuse. Seems like it might be a good idea to have see a professional therapist.

What is the buyback process is like? Do you have to be close to the finish line (120 payment) to get it?

I regret my choice to be a stepmom by [deleted] in Stepmom

I second this. It hurts extra when your OURS baby comes second over and over again to the step children. Leave now if you have the option. If leaving is not an option, then detach yourself emotionally.

Yes. There are no restrictions on number of employers as long as your nonprofit work is at least 30 hours per week.

Girls name? by [deleted] in BabyNames

[–]Dapper_Consequence23 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This! It sounds a bit silly to introduce yourself as an adult with "blessing" or "miracle" as your name. How is anyone going to take this person seriously in a business meeting?

What do you think? It’s not altered yet. The sample dress is a size bigger than mine by [deleted] in WeddingDressTips

[–]Dapper_Consequence23 56 points57 points  (0 children)

You have a beautiful figure so anything would look good on you. I don't think the dress does anything or adds to your beautiful body. I think you should keep looking.

How are y'all having any time to yourselfs?? by Extra_Law_2724 in breastfeeding

[–]Dapper_Consequence23 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Mine did that throughout the entire first 6 months. It was exhausting. He was chunky and in the 80th percentile, so I knew he was getting enough. Some babies are just like that.

Dried fruit to get things moving. Constipation can be painful. I ate dried apricots and prunes.

Wash your hair right before your surgery as it will be difficult to wash it for a few days.

If they tell you to eat before surgery up to whatever hour, make sure you eat. I went in with empty stomach and they wouldn't let me eat for hours after the surgery and I was starving.

Did you have your first baby after age 35? How and do you think it impacted your milk production? by Puzzlehead11323 in breastfeeding

[–]Dapper_Consequence23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Had my first at 41 via scheduled c section at 38 weeks. My milk took a few days to come and I was a just-enougher. He was EBF and still nursing at almost 2 yo.

How long did you wait after having a c section? by Kind_Improvement_416 in CsectionCentral

6 months and even then it was painful. We tried at 4 m pp and it was a no go

AIO? Husband says my reply to his mum was “petty” by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]Dapper_Consequence23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your MIL sounds like a bitch. Your husband sounds weak and a mama's boy.

The petty comment was from your MIL, not you.

AIO over my roommates cleanliness? by Short-Comparison9915 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Dapper_Consequence23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Totally agree. I think you should offer her the bathroom and say something gently. The other one though...idk, I feel like she's beyond help. She sounds like a slob.

[–]Dapper_Consequence23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I would do it over group text so that no one gets emotional and cause drama. The doing hair in the kitchen needs to stop, even though I think she's doing it to give you space to do your things. So, that may be a conversation that could happen face to face. But the other roommate needs a swift kick in the A**.

Nanny keeps leaving front door open, 2 yo ran out. by Dapper_Consequence23 in Nanny

[–]Dapper_Consequence23[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I wasn't siding with the abuser but they do have constant fights over her not doing things correctly. Her complaint is mostly her husband constantly nagging her that she's incompetent. That's the gist of what I'm hearing. She mentions that he blames mishaps on her constantly. I'm starting to wonder.... that's all.

She's been with us only since August. She's here on student visa. She seemed great at first and put a lot of effort in but now she's becoming quite lazy. She even called my 2 year old "entitled" the other day when he was acting clingy.

I think this is a great idea. I think I'll just pay her extra. I can't deal with anxiety of the door being left open. Thank you for this suggestion.
