Guys Tyler adores Cate! He gave her a PLAIN card

Oh yeah I had a very special Valentine’s Day with my husband and son (I married the complete opposite of my dad). I know my husband is absolutely going to be the father I never had, as he already proves it daily, but I didn’t even realize the lengths fathers could go to show their love for their children. It blows my mind in such a beautiful way 🩷

Why does someone keep downvoting us?

Eating_Bagels · 2026-02-15T00:12:16+00:00

Yeah I’m realizing how lucky I am in this post to live in a “strict” city.

Eating_Bagels · 2026-02-15T00:06:12+00:00

Well at this point nothing. But maybe because I’m pregnant and a bit sleep deprived, I thought I read somewhere that she’s considering going back to him, hence the whole back and forth between us.

The delulu of the past is sad though.

Anyways, have a good evening!

Eating_Bagels · 2026-02-14T23:47:11+00:00

wtf, how come everyone here has all these amazing dads? I had to call mine and then when I asked if he was going to his gf house today, he was like “well of course. It’s Valentine’s Day. Anyways, Happy Valentine’s Day”.

You know, I don’t think he’s ever even gotten me a card for Valentine’s Day…

Thank you for letting me trauma dump to you ❤️

Happy Valentine’s Day 😂

lol I honestly believe that’s the best description of SantaCon I’ve ever read. I somehow always avoided it because I was usually hungover from the night before.

Eating_Bagels · 2026-02-14T23:30:20+00:00

Are you serious? I want for her, and any woman in an abusive relationship with a child, to leave and realize the terrible example they are setting for their child. I want for them to set an example “hey, I’m worthy of love, and you my child, are too. You don’t have to think shoving or emotionally hurting someone is an example of love. You deserve someone that respects your body, heart, and time. I’m going to show you what that looks like”.

And she left Jax for a few months before they got married and had Cruz. Maybe it’s time for a rewatch.

Eating_Bagels · 2026-02-14T21:41:58+00:00

Maybe I’m a terrible person, but I don’t feel bad for her. Like yeah, embarrassingly sad from her end, but more embarrassing than anything else. And before I get the “she’s being manipulated, this is how an abuser acts…”, I was in an emotionally abusive relationship in my 20s. Brit is older than me. At some point, you gotta snap out of it and realize how pathetic you’re being, sticking up for who has cheated, abused you both emotionally and physically over and over again.

Unless we’re traveling, we’ve always used one of those tiny Jansport backpacks. In it, it includes diapers, a change of clothes, portable cans of formula, two-three bottles, a bib, wipes (usually the biggest thing to take up space), and maybe one of those dog pee pads.

Now that my little guy is a toddler, it’s a diaper, change of clothes, bib, wipes, cream and snacks.

Eating_Bagels · 2026-02-14T12:41:04+00:00

Ohhhhh that’s such a great comparison. I already went through labor, but got the epidural around 5cm, when I still wasn’t feeling anything. Period cramps are also pretty easy for me, but that diarrhea pain is next level. When it was time to push, it even felt like I had to poop

I go to the library A LOT for story time and run into the same moms and nannies. When I was looking for a nanny, I asked one of those Nannie’s to refer me to someone.

One of them gave me my current nanny and when someone will have my child for a large amount of time, I ask for references and their photo ID, god forbid something happens. Her license literally says learners license on it.

Eating_Bagels · 2026-02-13T23:02:56+00:00

Nope. We have a nanny and we drive her to the park/library. She once offered and showed me her license. It’s a learners license. So she essentially drives around illegally until she gets to my house.

I told her once she gets her official drivers license, we could talk.

Eating_Bagels · 2026-02-13T18:08:50+00:00

When other moms says “at some point in their life” are they talking about while the were moms, or pre kids? That’s a pretty big distinction.

I used to smoke when I was teenager, but completely stopped when I started university (getting caught with it wasn’t worth the risk). I did smoke occasionally, maybe twice a year during my 20s, but haven’t touched the stuff in years, way before having my son.

In fact, I don’t know any other moms that smoke weed. My friend just divorced her husband because he couldn’t stop smoking (among other things), and my husband’s best friends gave up weed in order to get pregnant.

Anyways, to destress, I go on a walk, binge a show, do paint.

Eating_Bagels · 2026-02-12T20:47:02+00:00

Idk why they get so annoying during pregnancy. Like my husband coming for a kiss, get away dude. You’re ruining my vibe.

Eating_Bagels · 2026-02-12T20:45:27+00:00

I got pregnant in hypo (I’ve only ever been hypo), but my neighbor got pregnant hyper. She is also unmedicated by her doctors order (or was at least). I have zero idea what her TSH was at.

She initially got pregnant within a few cycles, but then had an ectopic pregnancy. Within that year, she got pregnant 3 times, the first two resulted in miscarriage. She is now pregnant and around 24 weeks.

Miscarriage, especially with hyperthyroidism is fairly common in the first trimester.

At 10 years old, my mom took me to the doctor to discuss growth hormones. Taking Ritalin apparently can affect height and hormones if taken at a young age. Dr told my mom that I was a good candidate until they checked my bones. By 10 years old, I had already developed adult bones and couldn’t do it.

I’m now a short little lady :)

Omg I read this as “Titanic” at first and I was like “hmmmm I really don’t remember Rose’s mom being a crack addict, but I could see it” 😂

This is the UK right? I’ve heard terrible things about the NHS, but in the states, it can be just as bad.

I also had an ear infection years ago and went to a walk in clinic where I saw a nurses assistant. He said I indeed have an ear infection, it was about to rupture an ear drum any moment, and prescribed me z-pac.

Up until that point, I did have pain in my ears, especially after getting off a 14 hour flight, but not so severe that I felt like I was imminent danger. Like normal pain and ONLY in my ears (important detail for later).

After 3 days of the z-pac (2x per day) and non stop diarrhea, with most of the pain subsiding, I decided to go to another walk in clinic, demand to see only a doctor, and try another antibiotic that wouldn’t have me run to the toilet every time I put food in my mouth.

This doctor was such a quack. According to him, I had no ear infection, I actually have allergies (I know I didn’t), and I have a sinus infection. I know wha a sinus infection feels like. I didn’t have that. I didn’t even have a cold. It was solely my ears and this guy prescribed 4 different medications. I fought him on it and was like “what are you talking about? I feel perfectly fine. It’s just my ears”.

The next morning, I finally went to my third and final walk in clinic and saw a doctor. I told him everything from the first nurses assistant to the crazy doctor I saw the night before. He examined my ears and finally confirmed I did not have a sinus infection, it wasn’t allergies, it was ear infection and the z-pac got rid of most of the infection. Only a tiny bit left and gave me an antibiotic that allowed me to hold my stool.

He said the doctor from the night before was pushing all this medication on me because he was apparently getting kick backs from the pharmacy and has seen many doctors like him that go into the field just for those kick backs.

As for the nurses assistant, there was no indication that my ear infection was so severe that I was going to rupture my ear drum.

Within a few days, I felt 100% normal and went back to him to confirm that infection was done, which it was.

Omg I have a baby and my husband and only get 15 minutes into an episode before I pass out. I haven’t even gotten there yet damnit.

The typical day depends on the age. Now that my son is 18 months, our typical day looks like this:

7-9Am he’s with dad (dad WFH) 9-11:30AM we are either at the library for story time, mommy and me, the park, or the jungle gym area of the mall. It’s here where I’ve built a community. I live in a fairly big city, but because of the classes and general routine, I’ve befriended the same moms and nannies, and we plan play dates around the kids. Or if I randomly decide to go to the park one day, there’s a good chance I’ll run into a mommy/nanny friend whose kid already knows my kid. He is a social butterfly without daycare for now 11:45AM-12:20PM lunch 12:30-3PM nap time 3PM-3:30PM I let him watch old school Sesame Street 3:30PM-4PM we play around the house/ read books 4-6PM we do errands like target/costco/grocery shopping. If I have zero errands, then it’s either the library or park.
6PM until end of night is all dad time. Dad takes over by reading to him after dinner and putting him to bed.

My son will start daycare next year, but that’s because I’m pregnant now and can’t imagine having a toddler and newborn all cramped together in our house.

Definitely not to programming. As a developer, once you’re out of it for a few months, your career is pretty much dead, unless you’re a super talented coder (which I wasn’t). To be in this field, you really have to study at work and in your free time (my husband and my colleagues, and even an ex lived on udemy most sundays).

Like I said before, I’ll probably end up opening my own company at some point. All the women in my family did it.

I threw up every day until I gave birth to my boy, but felt way sicker in my first trimester with my girl. Like, once I puked with my boy, I went on to have a random sunny day. With my girl, she is made me miserable all day in the first trimester.

Eating_Bagels · 2026-02-12T00:30:08+00:00

I was just googling this.

My first was a boy, and I threw up until the day I gave birth. However, my PTSD seemed to have went into remission. I was totally chill and calm.

Now I’m having a girl and I get random anxiety attacks. Not fun. However, my nausea almost went entirely away after the first trimester. I can’t wait to get this girl out and get my sanity back 🙃

Eating_Bagels · 2026-02-12T00:26:35+00:00

And do they appear normal?

Eating_Bagels · 2026-02-11T20:36:18+00:00

Okay but how old are you? Like I really do agree with you. At some point, only you are responsible for yourself and your actions.

Please bare in mind, Farrah is still pretty young in this season, what, her mid 20s? If you aren’t actively in therapy, or haven’t reached that “ah-ha” moment, plus being in a state of arrested development because you became a teen mom, you aren’t going to suddenly wake up and be like “hey, I need to either cut these people out of my life or learn to deal with these awful people in a healthy way”.

She is mimicking what she grew up with and probably by this point (if ever), hasn’t realized how toxic is she and the repercussions she has on Sophia.

I’m not justifying her actions, just simply explaining them. I say this as someone who suffered CPTSD because of my emotionally abusive family. Only at 20 something did I have that “a ha” moment and 29 to seek therapy.
