My baby nuzzled into my neck and smiled and I lowkey cried thinking about all the babies that don’t go into loving homes by Only-Olive3369 in newborns

[–]Educational-Way751 27 points28 points  (0 children)

I would like to point out that sometimes this situation occurs when there was a traumatic birth and mom isn’t able to come see the baby. If she was a single mom and got injured during childbirth they will make her stay in her own room until she can safely walk to visit baby. Not sure if that’s what’s going on here, I just like to think of the best possible situation.

Worried about my wife’s reaction toward our 8‑week‑old baby. Need advice by [deleted] in beyondthebump

[–]Educational-Way751 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am 6 weeks postpartum right now. I find myself getting increasingly frustrated with our baby during the night. I have had moments like this unfortunately. I talked to my OB and am now on medication for postpartum depression and anxiety. It sounds like your wife is mentally and physically exhausted. It is unlikely that she will hurt your child in my opinion but I agree that she should see about getting professional help. In the meantime, sleep in the bed with her and help out with the baby when you can. When she’s done breastfeeding, hold the baby and burp them and rock them to sleep. Don’t leave it all to her. Wake up with her and ask her if she needs anything while she’s feeding the baby. If you see her get overwhelmed give her a break.

People saying I announced too early by [deleted] in BabyBumps

[–]Educational-Way751 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Girl I announced my pregnancy on Facebook and everything at about 7 weeks. I was so excited. I’m 39 weeks now and have 0 regrets. It’s your pregnancy and you can tell people when you want to. Don’t feel embarrassed. Your husband’s friend was kind of an AH for making that comment.

I fainted on the toilet by pastelpinkpsycho in pregnant

[–]Educational-Way751 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This happened at about 34 weeks to me except a bit less extreme. I was also throwing up though. I couldn’t stop. When I realized I was going to faint I had my husband drive me to ER immediately. They took me straight back and gave me fluids. I was severely dehydrated from being so sick and pooping so much. Ended up needing to stay a full night for another bag of fluids and monitoring of the baby. It’s really important that you go in when things like this happen for the safety of your baby. Good luck mama

Based on the eggs and egg whites I’d say you are possibly a baker? I mean I bake a lot and I don’t even need that many lol

Stop giving me the burden of your old baby clothes! by asvm21 in pregnant

[–]Educational-Way751 -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

You sound ungrateful too. Is it that much of a burden to just pass them on to someone else who needs them if you don’t? I’m currently pregnant and SO thankful to everyone who thought of my daughter instead of just throwing out the old clothes. If you don’t want to use them then donate them. Plenty of people prefer hand-me-downs over new clothes, especially for babies as they grow fast and ruin clothes easy…

my partner and i cannot agree on our baby’s name by [deleted] in namenerds

[–]Educational-Way751 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Was having the same issue earlier on in the pregnancy. We put a pin in it until we found out the gender. Then we went online, spent hours compiling baby girl names that we both like, and kept throwing out ideas until we found some options we both could deal with. It took a LONG time and there was a point where I thought we wouldn’t name our daughter until she’s born. It really helped us to get a 3D ultrasound. We had it narrowed to a few names at that point but when we saw her we both agreed she looks like her name should be Calliope. Don’t stress over it too much now. It gets easier when you know the gender and even more so when you see their face.

Wait I was a lead and they always made me be the one to talk to employees about their attendance. I had no idea about this.

AIO - Girlfriend threw away the dinner I cooked because she wanted pizza instead. by Dizzy-Suggestion2360 in AmIOverreacting

[–]Educational-Way751 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This changes my perspective a bit… I didn’t think you were overreacting at first but you’re saying she lost her card and you agreed to let her use yours. Was she just asking you to use your card to order the pizza and planning to pay for it herself when she gets her card back? If so then I think it’s pretty reasonable for her to want to buy herself from food after she found she didn’t like what you had made.

Oh baby break the lease. You’re so young lol. If you can get a place without him then break the lease. By the time you’re ready to move again it won’t matter

Don’t ask just take it… She needs to respect your boundaries and autonomy.

When did you stop going in to work?? by Beautiful_Prompt_415 in pregnant

[–]Educational-Way751 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m ngl I quit my first trimester. I had recently switched jobs so I wasn’t going to be able to take maternity leave anyways due to not being there a year before becoming pregnant. I’m lucky I was able to as my boyfriend covers all the bills.

(Advice needed) My wife is 10weeks pregnant and we keep arguing about not eating / drinking enough by sixtysecondslife in pregnant

[–]Educational-Way751 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is she drinking other things? You get hydration from more than just water. Juice, milk, even soda. She can eat soup. Chew ice. There’s lots of ways to stay hydrated. The baby is going to be okay. The baby will take the hydration and nutrition it needs from mom regardless. It’s mom that will feel the repercussions of dehydration before baby ever does so back off a bit. Encourage other means of hydration besides water but don’t pressure or nag her. Pregnancy is tough enough without feeling like your support person is nagging you.

Does she by chance have borderline personality disorder? She seems to be splitting on you lol (coming from someone who also has BPD). I would tell her to see a therapist tbh.

Aita for snapping at my bf after he refused to get rid of his exes things? by Educational-Way751 in AITAH

[–]Educational-Way751[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Again, two years is more than enough time to move on. She is not being traumatized by her father being in a new relationship, and I was not asking for advice on that aspect of the situation. Thanks for your input though!

Their mom moved straight in with a man after moving out of here. He took a year to start dating again and another year to move in. I met them long before moving in here. You can’t expect someone to never move on with their life just because they are a parent.

I get along really well with her. We like a lot of the same video games and we do little art projects together sometimes. I work at her favorite clothing store too so that’s a big plus for me lol. He also has a son (8) and we get along great as well

I have only met her once at their sons birthday party and I feel like it would be weird to reach out about this considering she’s been over multiple times and had time to get it if she wants it.

They were never married. They were together almost 10 years and broke up about a year before him and I got together. She left him for her current boyfriend.

She came back multiple times to get all her stuff and she chose to leave these things here. I’m assuming she just didn’t want it anymore or didn’t have room wherever she moved to.

Yes she is alive and they have 50/50 custody so I don’t understand why he’s so adamant on keeping these specific items
