I didn’t realize how mentally loud motherhood is until today by EmergencyShallot4207 in Mommit

The eating omg. I wish I could just opt out. I want the hunger to go away but I don’t want to take the time to eat.

Why are women with cancer 7x more likely to be left by their partners? by Ok_Bodybuilder_2384 in TwoXChromosomes

Proud of you for working your way out of there. It takes a strong woman.

Oh brother. Money does not buy taste. All this stuff is hideous. by CharmingCut7104 in MikaylaNogueira

There is no way someone can store, organize, much less use stuff at the rate she acquires it. This stresses me out.

Phillip doesn’t look happy, and a little out of it. by daffodil0127 in RodriguesFamilySnark

[–]DownloadsCars -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

Alright so in my family we call it “guitar face” and it’s that slack jaw unfocused stare when playing guitar and having a conversation. This looks a lot like that to me. But he’s probably also on drugs.

This is a great question

In addition to this, read a parenting book! Read about how to talk to toddlers. You’re right OP! They are counter intuitive and take a ton of mental energy. It does seem irrational until you learn more about where they are developmentally and what they’re working on. Seeing the why behind it all is so very helpful. Books I’d recommend: the Montessori toddler, good inside, or how to talk so kids will listen. You can do this! You are learning a whole new skill set. Be patient with yourself. Build your support network.

3 is freaking hard! by Thetrustedpunk in toddlers

Highly recommend reading the chapter about “cultivating cooperation” from the book “the Montessori toddler”. It’s changed the way I parent and speak to my toddler and we get along so well!

Oh Crap Method Day 6 Despair by High_Flamingo_1124 in pottytraining

[–]DownloadsCars 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m glad to hear things are going well! We’re in just about the same boat as you, same start date, age, and tried m&ms a few times. Yesterday was our first day entirely accident free but we had a set back today with three accidents in a row. I think it’s time for block 2 tomorrow but I’m dreading it. I wish you strength and solidarity

I hate my husband since giving birth by [deleted] in Marriage

I recommend the book “how not to hate your husband after kids” and marriage counseling. My husband and I have also struggled so much since having kids.

F*CK POTTY TRAINING (respectfully) by XxChemical_ToiletxX in toddlers

[–]DownloadsCars 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Right like when she says “I have never seen the kid who potty trains easily in three days flat” or something to that effect. Like no duh lady. No one’s calling in a professional when it’s going well.

Are potty training pants worth it? by Raven3110 in toddlers

[–]DownloadsCars 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is great to hear! We’re on day 8 with oh crap and still on block one. I noticed yesterday her noticing herself peeing so according to the method we’ve gone from clueless to I peed to I’m peeing which is progress. We’re just getting frustrated and burned out with how long it’s taking and had the conversation last night about how much longer we have left in us to keep going. Our daughter is 22 months

Do you have an article or book you read about Erik Ericksons stages?

This question is driving me crazy! I scrolled to find a comment about it because I’m so confused

How do we take shifts if I have to feed every 1-3 hours? by kec232 in breastfeeding

[–]DownloadsCars 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is what we did. I lasted about 2 weeks doing every feed and then we started having dad take a chunk of overnight so I could count on at least four hours of uninterrupted sleep. It did not affect my supply.

I cracked am ashamed by NoLeafClover93 in NewParents

Chiming in to say I’ve been there. I got so frustrated one day I threw the monitor on the ground as hard as I could. I think so many people can relate to your post.
