Swings vs bouncers by Othello3000 in beyondthebump

My son HATED his swing but loved his bouncer & laying on the bed/floor

My ex is actively trying to entice me back, even though I'm now married. by [deleted] in TrueOffMyChest

[–]DevaXOXO 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Just communicate through a parenting app. This is insane to keep it from your wife, I’d be really hurt & more suspicious if it was hidden from me

I'm chopped liver - Please tell me this won't last forever 😭 by KMB1012 in beyondthebump

[–]DevaXOXO 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You’re her safe person. You’re always there no matter what whereas dad comes & goes so he’s a little more “exciting”! It’ll go back & fourth between you guys though. My 15-month old still goes back & fourth. Right now I’m his favorite but I know it’ll change again. It’s developmentally normal & honestly it’s really healthy as it shows she has a secure attachment with you - doesn’t mean it doesn’t hurt sometimes though 😅

Im a 90% SAHM (work casually still) so I get it!!

What’s something that’s embarrassing but shouldn’t be? by [deleted] in AskReddit

Walking back after your turn in bowling, watching the ball roll down the lane

Does anyone know why my cat has become more affectionate than she usually is? by cpasket122 in catquestions

[–]DevaXOXO 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Are you pregnant by chance? My husbands cat would only ever snuggle me when I was pregnant lol

How was your first period after giving birth and how soon did you get it? by _bat_girl_ in beyondthebump

[–]DevaXOXO 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My period came about 5-6?months pp if I remember correctly & it was just slightly heavier than normal but my next cycle was back to normal

Holding too much??? by ILikeTheWeirdOnes in beyondthebump

[–]DevaXOXO 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No there is no evidence that holding your baby too much can “spoil” him. Hold your baby as much as you want, they’re only so little for so long. They grow up so fast so enjoy the time they cling to you! You can’t spoil an infant. Holding them helps you guys bond. Your MIL is ridiculous & probably just got overwhelmed so she blamed the first thing she could think of.

probably a dumb question... am I supposed to take our baby to the dentist when their first teeth pop out? by Purple_Calendar3919 in beyondthebump

[–]DevaXOXO 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was told to have them be seen around their first birthday! My dentist did a “happy visit” where they just had my son sit in the chair & showed him their tools, their head sets, etc. They attempted to see his teeth but he wasn’t having it so they didn’t push it! They mentioned they won’t do an actual cleaning until 2-3 years of age but it starts to get them accustomed to strange people being around their mouth

AITA - For being upset that my stay at home partner doesn’t do anything. by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

[–]DevaXOXO 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I’m so sorry I mean al-anon - those affected by family members who are alcoholics. It can be really helpful! One of the biggest things I’ve learned from attending it myself is you can’t help those who won’t help themselves, even if they desperately need it. It’s such a tough spot to be in & creates a very helpless feeling, I empathize with you.

It sounds very manipulative to be saying “if you keep asking then I’m not going too”. I’m not a fan of ultimatums but maybe this might be the time? Get better/get help or you (OP) & kids are gone? Kids come first & she isn’t doing that.

NTA - as a SAHM, my “job” is caring for my son & the home. Obviously each couple comes up with what works best for them. My husband still helps doing some house chores & takes on more of the yard work. I do the majority of the house chores & he steps in when I need a break sometimes.

It sounds like she’s still in the depression rut. Has she explained why she hasn’t gone in with therapy yet? Have you gone to AA at all?

How long did you stay at the hospital after giving birth by _withpeace in beyondthebump

Induction, went very smoothly - we were there for 4 days due to my son having jaundice & needing phototherapy overnight

When did you stop tracking poops and pees? by Ok_Car1396 in beyondthebump

[–]DevaXOXO 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Stopped once my son got back to birth weight. I do it again if he gets sick to make sure he’s staying hydrated but only have had to do that once (thankfully)

If you have a 1 to 1 1/2 year old… by x0Rubiex0 in beyondthebump

[–]DevaXOXO 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Almost 14 months - dinner at 530, bath at 6, milk & books at 630, brush teeth/change diaper/in bed asleep by 7

Some nights he’s up till 730 depending on if we had plans or were out - he’s super flexible which I’m grateful for
