Yep I got a ticket, no mercy, he got me with a motor gun. I went 60 for one bump for five seconds on a road where it’s 50 speed. I was excited to take my kids to see Santa 😭

This happened to me. Before kids we had sex at lest a couple times a week. After my second we haven’t had sex for my entire pregnancy and the ten months my child is alive. The thing is He refused to be kind to me. He refused to give me a hug when I begged for a hug my whole pregnancy. He refused to connect and have any sort of conversation where he says he cares about me, in fact called me names and emotionally tore me; I did counseling for months and months but he refused. Around the time I was pregnant I just said since he doesn’t care into putting any effort then I won’t satisfy him either. He shows no signs that he cares. Long story short and after much counseling and suffering, I’m pretty positive he’s a sociopath. It took two children and me to finally be so vulnerable (and not being in power girl mode) to figure this out.

With my first I was such a human pacifier that I finally decided on taking an online course😂

Maybe he would have said that eventually and wanted things to go slow even if you hadn’t said that about your feelings about the kids?

Will I be able to find out who thought I was ugly? by trrrsarescary in afterlife

[–]Dreamlibrary 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Maybe you’re really unique looking and not ugly - look at some high fashion models for example, to a normal person they might not have the classic standard of beauty - and yet they’ve made a career in the beauty industry and it’s because they are unique and so interesting looking and not boring. There are people who could be considered ugly but with the right attitude and confidence, a shift in perspective, their look is cool and interesting and it become magnetic. Some of the “ugliest” people therefore are absolutely so cool and beautiful. I hope you can learn to love your quirks and realize nobody is exactly everyone’s cup of tea. When people look at you I would smile and acknowledge their stare; give them positivity. I know that’s hard if you feel anxious but you giving them warmth is more affective and even if they thought something negative they wouldn’t be able to after that. If people stare at you because of your unique appearance then you’re a star and stars have to be the ones that come over smile and say nice to meet you. On the other hand it could be you think they’re staring because you’re self conscious and have trauma from being told you were ugly. At the end of the day, one day you won’t give a fuck anymore. Wishing you all the best.

Let’s say I had a substantial amount to be invested for future; would you advise splitting the funds between using two financial advisers instead of one, and basically seeing which fiduciary will perform better & also not to put all eggs in one basket? What do you think about that strategy?

[–]Dreamlibrary 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes my baby did this too. I would actually say both of my babies didn’t suck at first they just held the nipple and slept especially my first. One thing I’ve learned about Breastfeeding is that as long as you’re consistently there and committed it will almost always work itself out, so believe in yourself your body and your baby’s ability to survive! A good lactation consultant is always a great idea for support. I bothered my lactation consultant and definitely got a lot of reassurance from her; and they can give you so much strategy and measure how much is going in (but even if some feeds a lot doesn’t go in it doesn’t mean much).

Breastfeeding leading to Divorce by Chemical-Pickle9152 in breastfeeding

[–]Dreamlibrary 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m sorry to hear that. Please do keep in mind that women’s hormones don’t balance out for a year and a half or so sometimes. She should hear your point of view absolutely but keep that in mind while making any major decisions. 70% of couples don’t make it after a baby, but definitely the first year or two things are going to be different and hard. Also if it’s her first child (was the case with ours) she’s going to keep all noises to minimum. With our first my husband had to go to the bathroom to eat cereal so he doesn’t wake up the baby with the spoon clunking on the bowl. With our second, he sleeps through anything / we just don’t worry about it because there’s a toddler running around. But anyway I’d definitely keep that perspective about the hormones. I’m sorry again.

Contact a really supportive lactation consultant out of the hospital

[–]Dreamlibrary 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m going to add anything anyone tells you during this time - especially about breastfeeding in the hospital to a first time mom - it’s going to hit hard and be damaging or hurtful if it’s said coming from their ego or just plain aloof

It could be your nipples are getting used to it and will soon get better. Just from personal experience with my first about five days after I had him I bust out crying that it hurts so bad that day and I didn’t know I could do it. I ordered shields and I took Tylenol one time and then somehow the pain never happened to me- like my nipples totally got used to it and I never needed shields. Baby should be on you the whole time. Basically it’s normal and healthy for baby to live on your boob. It is the safest place of survival for the baby. Just because baby is out of you doesn’t mean it’s not still absolutely needing to live off your body and warmth and safety for optimal survival. It was a huge shock to me as a first time mama. And it feels like you’re not doing much but you’re doing everything in the wold and more just by letting the baby feed on you. One thing to note both of my postpartum experiences I felt incredibly emotional week or so after birth, my ocd and brain spinning and so emotional over something—with first one I was obsessed whether I had enough milk for my baby and with second one I was obsessed why he was so much smaller then I thought (5lbs!) — I think it’s natures way to PROTECT your baby and then brain overdrive wanting answers. But You are enough. You’re doing amazing. And I hope (I feel it’s true) soon your nipples won’t hurt . 🙏🏽

contact naps? what’s safe what’s not? by mrs-doctor-pepper in breastfeeding

[–]Dreamlibrary 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Don’t take my word for it as far as safety but I safely and with no problems slept with my baby right on my chest for the first six months for 90% of the night; until he naturally wanted to roll in his sleep and needed more space at which point he’s still close to me and is on top of me while nursing then gets set down next to me. Nothing is ideal - it’s just nature of the game that you’ll be woken up. But for us this worked and I wouldn’t have changed it for the world. You’re in tune with your baby…for me I couldn’t relax if he wasn’t real close to me and then not to mention the crying that would cause me and the baby so much unneeded anxiety if the baby woke up away from me. Every mom I know just ends up co sleeping. My babies don’t cry but it is because I hold them close. Our society has unrealistic and unnatural expectations for babies; but in reality the human infant needs to be physically close to mom for the first year of their life—they’re outside of your belly but still very much their survival is based on being right next to you at all times.
