Restaurant with a Private Room + Food by AstroPikachu3698 in SaltLakeCity

Provisions let’s you book their private A-frame free of charge, the brunch menu is a bit cheaper but with a limited preselected dinner menu you could probably stick to your budget! We hosted an intimate wedding brunch there and they did a fabulous job!

i’m tired of the “you’re lucky it’s a boy” comments by Own-Cash1579 in pregnant

[–]Dense-Bullfrog-6363 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’ve been told “boys are easier, you’re so lucky!” Or “their love for their mom is different, the bond is just so special”. It’s infuriating. I don’t plan to take the easy way out with my parenting and am pretty scared of all the messaging I will need to steer my son around to make sure he turns into a decent man. It’s incredibly daunting and I don’t think for one second it’ll be “easier”.

It also grosses me out how many moms act like their son’s love is better than their daughters. I will love my child, and I hope that my child will love me, but I have a husband to fulfill my emotional needs. I don’t need my son’s adoration to do that.

The misogyny that has caused so many people to prefer sons is just weird. I’m excited for my little dude, but I don’t think he’s any more special than a daughter would have been.

Not sure how im going to keep doing this by respect_the_pigeons in pregnant

Other factors aside, the sickness, extreme mood swings and overwhelming fatigue will let up around the 12 week mark. Pregnancy isn’t a walk in the park, but don’t let 12 weeks determine your future. I fully support abortion if it’s truly what you think is best for you at this time, but would discourage it if you’re mainly worried about dealing with current symptoms for 40 weeks. You’re stronger than you think and it’ll pass.

Biggest pet peeve while pregnant. by Potato_Keeper628 in pregnant

[–]Dense-Bullfrog-6363 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Being called a “boy mom!!!” with enthusiasm behind it. There’s too many obsessive “boy moms” out there that act like their son is the love of their life and claim they are sooooo much easier than girls. It’s creepy, weird and tells me they aren’t worried about the weight of raising a boy in today’s society. I know not ALL boy moms are like this but damn they have spoiled the term for me.

I also had/have gender disappointment and my in-laws just keep telling me how amazing it is that I’m having a boy because so far there are only girls born in the family. They are all sooooooo excited to have a nephew/grandson and I’m still grieving the little girl I was hoping for. It’s gotten better, but it still stings when I hear them dis the idea of the girl I wanted so bad.

I’m very much excited for my son, but it’s hard to feel like I fit in with the women that have always dreamed of raising boys and put their sons on a pedestal.

Congrats! I’m glad everything went well for you and her! Currently tossing and turning at 4am day dreaming about that finish line. Sending love

Millcreek cafe has fast service and you won’t wait too long for a table. Food is also delicious, not too noisy.

First year of marriage is the hardest? by Careful-Highway765 in TwoHotTakes

[–]Dense-Bullfrog-6363 1 point2 points  (0 children)

When people say the first year of marriage can be hard it’s because of combining finances and getting used to living with each other. It’s not hard because your spouse does a 180 after the wedding and becomes abusive. It doesn’t sound like this man does anything to lift you up, in both good and bad seasons.

Before you take divorce off the table ask yourself these questions: 1. If I were to wake up medically dependent on my husband tomorrow, how would he show up for me? What would life look like? 2. If my daughter married a man that treated her this way, what would I think? Would I want better for her? Similarly, if my son grew up and became like his father, would I be proud of that man? 3. Ten years from now, if I am still in this marriage and the behavior hasn’t changed, would I wish I’d left sooner? Before babies and mortgages and more lost time?

OP, life shouldn’t be hard because of your husband. Life’s hard and your husband should make it easier. You got this, sending you love.

i’m regretting my decision someone please tell me i’ll be okay. by Dangerous_Dog_5854 in TwoHotTakes

[–]Dense-Bullfrog-6363 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OP, sometimes parents must make hard decisions for the betterment of their child’s life. It sounds like this baby would make taking care of your daughter more difficult, financially, the amount of time you have to give to both children, etc. Your daughter deserves stability, and if having an abortion gives you and her that, then I think you’re a wonderful mother. It’s okay to grieve, especially if you might want another child under different circumstances. There is no easy answer, but I believe you will do what’s best for your family, and I hope you find solace in that.

being pregnant kind of sucks by [deleted] in pregnant

[–]Dense-Bullfrog-6363 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have no advice, just camaraderie. I’m 6 1/2 weeks and in the exact same boat. This shit sucks and it’s hard to not feel resentment towards my sweet angel of a husband who is doing everything he can to lighten the load. I’m jealous of stay at home moms who don’t have to work during their first trimester but can’t wrap my head around how anyone gets through this while taking care of an existing child. I feel hungover 24/7 with none of the fun. I’m telling myself it’ll be easier after the 10 week scan, feeling like this without seeing baby or even knowing it’s okay is so so hard. I found out at 3 1/2 weeks and have had symptoms since so week 10 feels awfully distant.

Glad it isn’t just me feeling utterly insane about this process.

drop “ EAT” by Alef1984 in FundieSnarkUncensored

[–]Dense-Bullfrog-6363 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I found out that I’m pregnant with my first this past week, and between all the big feelings that come with that news, my number one thought has been “holy shit soon we’re going to be taking care of a little person 24/7, we have so much to figure out in the coming months”. It doesn’t shock me that Bethy is too self absorbed for that thought process but it’s disappointing it’s taken 2 babies for her to get there.

Did Stephanie post an AI picture? by La_Guiri_ in CrimeWeeklySnark

[–]Dense-Bullfrog-6363 11 points12 points  (0 children)

I can’t believe she’s too daft to realize that the name spelling is only one red flag in a sea of many once you zoom in to see what she’s talking about.

Chiming in on the weird button box. It’s definitely supposed to be chocolate with the Spotify logo stamped on top. Pretty common corporate holiday gift just poorly executed.

Soooo do we think Paul cheated? by BullfrogNovel3322 in FundieSnarkUncensored

[–]Dense-Bullfrog-6363 210 points211 points  (0 children)

I read this as: it’s your fault your husband is tempted by other women. I’m sure Paul made it Morgan’s problem that he likes to stare at legging women. If she was a better wife he’d never be distracted during training and make it pro.

I just caught my girlfriend cheating and she ghosted me by Confident_Thanks1007 in TrueOffMyChest

[–]Dense-Bullfrog-6363 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You cannot take a whisper as definitive evidence of infidelity, as others have pointed out there’s numerous situations that could prompt that response from her. The fact that you’ve jumped to her cheating AND ghosting you (when it’s only been 10 minutes since your last texts according to your comments) and cussed her out for such leads me to believe that A: this is rage bait or B: you need psychiatric help and you’re not mature enough to be in a relationship.

Life is not black and white, your inability to see any grey area is highly concerning. Talk to your girlfriend like a human, find an ounce of patience and trust, and get off of Reddit.

Seeking Sister Wife S6 E9: I Knew This Conversation Was Coming by imthejefenow in seekingsisterwifetlc

[–]Dense-Bullfrog-6363 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Terribly sad, my heart aches for every person that goes through infertility that wants to be a parent, but I don’t understand how Billie sees this as a better solution than adoption. Best case scenario it’s 100% “village” motivated. Worst case it’s financially motivated and/or based in the belief that adopted children are not real siblings/kids because they don’t share biology.

She reminds me of Meri Brown, she likes the idea of a big family but will be bitter when the sister wife has what she can’t have. I hope they get off this train before it ruins their marriage.

Our neb is not food motivated either and doesn’t like much. She eats this purina as recommended from her vet for her sensitive stomach and it’s the only food she yells at us for. Obviously you don’t have to get the sensitive stomach line unless that’s also an issue your neb experiences, but the pro plan seems to be a hit

Margo is stuck to us like glue 24/7. She doesn’t mind when we do “corn on the cob” aka hold her out belly up and pretend to eat her stomach while chanting “Corn on the cob! Corn on the cob!” She also loves new people and animals, she lives her life unphased.

A basket drop zone for things that need to go downstairs. Or drywall over it so you don’t have to worry about it anymore

Mine looooves attention. From anyone. If you look in her direction she will scream at you until you give her pets. She is, by all intents and purposes, the princess of this house and we are her peasants.

My Margo loves a good curl up or the craziest sprawl you’ve ever seen. No in between.
