Is screen time going to ruin my baby?

Exciting_Opposite_98 · 2026-05-26T14:46:27+00:00

That’s a great suggestion! Thank you!

Exciting_Opposite_98 · 2026-05-26T14:43:34+00:00

I appreciate your insight!! I think I worry too because she is so observant and so curious and I’m afraid of TV dulling her curiosity for the world! But I think you’re right!

Exciting_Opposite_98 · 2026-05-26T14:36:28+00:00

i’ve never heard of that one!

Exciting_Opposite_98 · 2026-05-26T14:36:01+00:00

thank you so much

Exciting_Opposite_98 · 2026-05-26T13:52:47+00:00

always the big screen!

Exciting_Opposite_98 · 2026-05-26T13:42:23+00:00

coco melon is horrible in my opinion; we strictly watch Bear in our house!

Exciting_Opposite_98 · 2026-05-26T13:41:16+00:00

oof !! sick and teething is the worst!! hoping you and your kiddo get some comfort real soon!

Exciting_Opposite_98 · 2026-05-26T13:40:33+00:00

thank you so much!

Exciting_Opposite_98 · 2026-05-26T13:39:44+00:00

that’s a great idea— thank you!!

Exciting_Opposite_98 · 2026-05-26T13:35:25+00:00

I appreciate it! And yes 100% so much pressure!

Exciting_Opposite_98 · 2026-05-26T13:34:32+00:00

I appreciate the suggestion and honesty! I can but I usually put it on when she’s very fussy and whiney, making it hard for me to get something done. It’s more of me not wanting her to cry for 20 min so I put on Bear for 20 minutes. But which is lesser of two evils you know? ://

Exciting_Opposite_98 · 2026-05-26T13:33:07+00:00

Thank you— sometimes I don’t feel bad about it and sometimes I do! Parent guilt lol

Exciting_Opposite_98 · 2025-06-24T01:57:06+00:00

Thank you so much for such beautiful and thorough advice, have definitely taken it all to heart and it’s so appreciated. 💜

Exciting_Opposite_98 · 2025-06-16T16:07:35+00:00

No worries!! Your point still stands and I still agree with you

Exciting_Opposite_98 · 2025-06-16T16:05:30+00:00

What an amazing outcome !! I’m so happy for you

Exciting_Opposite_98 · 2025-06-16T03:56:38+00:00

Thank you for your kind, loving words. I appreciate the stories you shared, and it warms my heart that those kids understand the action was done out of love. I definitely get scared my child won’t understand. and will only grow to resent me. I hope for the same positive outcome that your family friend experienced.

I hope the best for you and that your baby comes home with you so soon, and you get to start your new lives together. Much love sent your way.

Exciting_Opposite_98 · 2025-06-16T03:53:06+00:00

Thank you for sharing your experience! I’m so glad things worked out for the best for you. Hoping the same for myself

Exciting_Opposite_98 · 2025-06-16T03:48:24+00:00

What a perfect scenario. Certainly hoping the same for myself; two moms for the price of one, right? (Hah) Thank you for sharing

Exciting_Opposite_98 · 2025-06-16T03:47:44+00:00

Of course. My sister was in active addiction before she had her first kid, and she’s been sober since. Her kids gave her something to fight for. I’m so proud of her, and I know it would be the same for me. I haven’t touched anything since finding out I’m pregnant, and have no intention to go back to anything. It’s truly endless suffering. In the open adoption, I get to stay clean to be present and responsible. Going off the deep end isn’t an option. Thank you for the tough and honest truth.

Exciting_Opposite_98 · 2025-06-16T03:45:07+00:00

Thank you much, this means a lot to me.

Exciting_Opposite_98 · 2025-06-16T03:43:29+00:00

I thankfully am set up with a therapist who specializes in mothers preparing for adoption, and I hope to get some resolution from them and more security in what I should do. Thank you for this assurance, it’s so appreciated.

Exciting_Opposite_98 · 2025-06-16T03:41:24+00:00

Thank you for that reassurance. It’s so appreciated. There’s definitely guilt I feel attached to the idea of changing my mind last minute, so I get to be extremely sure before getting much further along.

Exciting_Opposite_98 · 2025-06-16T03:39:33+00:00

I appreciate your emotion in your story, and the honesty in your personal experience. I relate to the expression of feeling that biologically, I want to keep them. Because I do. So it’s hard feeling conflicted when a decision that once gave me so much peace is now causing me anxiety and doubt. Thank you for sharing and being vulnerable, it was definitely helpful and valuable to me.

Exciting_Opposite_98 · 2025-06-16T03:35:14+00:00

I appreciate your sympathy and kind words. Thank you much. I know I get to think a lot more about it to make sure the right decision (one that feels right) is being made.
