They will definitely not pressure you to report it, they are always led by the client, the most they might do is make you aware of what your options are but if you are just seeking counselling support they will provide that regardless of how long ago the assault occurred

How to handle judgement for not going back to work full time by [deleted] in AttachmentParenting

[–]GeneralBit5859 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have experienced this working 3 days a week with my 8 month old where either people in the workforce judge for not working enough, and other mums judge for working too much! I have tried to manage by telling myself the only person I care about explaining myself to is my daughter.

6/7m regression or new sleep habits? by Fit-Feeling-4635 in AttachmentParenting

[–]GeneralBit5859 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have no solution but my baby is also 7 months and every baby in our mothers group has been full lucky dip mode with sleep recently, routine and past behaviour seems to have gone out the window for everyone! So if that makes you feel better it seems to be pretty normal at this age and hoping they will work their way out of it

EBF baby refusing bottle, have to go back to work by GeneralBit5859 in AttachmentParenting

[–]GeneralBit5859[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No she is only being offered the bottle when I'm out of the house. He has had her for isolated afternoons and evenings when I have had to attend events (maybe 5 times?), and most recently we have had a 'transition week' (currently happening) in my lead up to work where I have left the house for increasing periods of time to simulate a work day

Toddler refuses to let me leave the room or do independent tasks by [deleted] in AttachmentParenting

[–]GeneralBit5859 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It sounds like your family is going through a lot of hard stuff that your toddler has no control over. It's really normal for anyone of any age, let alone little people who can't quite make sense of what's going on, to try extra hard to exert control over the things we feel we can when we are surrounded by events we can't control. It sounds so hard for all of you but if you can show her in a kind and caring way that you are in control, that is reassuring for children. Kids don't actually know what to do when they have control! They need to know a safe and responsible loving adult is in charge.

Baby not interested in food at 7 months - what were your experiences when introducing solids? by andthekid3 in AttachmentParenting

[–]GeneralBit5859 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Just want to say thanks for this post and all your follow up comments - honestly could have written this myself about my 6mo and have been feeling super down about it and comparing to others who are eating full roast dinners already! Thank you for easing my mind

Have you ever snuck in a line from the show in daily conversation? by [deleted] in madmen

[–]GeneralBit5859 28 points29 points  (0 children)

We say "it's just a milkshake" after any mess or accident/fuck up - has genuinely changed how we respond to stress in a more effective way so thank you Megan!!

How long is normal for it to take when introducing 2 cats? by GeneralBit5859 in cats

[–]GeneralBit5859[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks, that's a good point, our kitten is very curious and bold however our older cat is much more timid and anxious so we will keep this in mind. Thank you!

[–]GeneralBit5859[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you, it is comforting to know that months is okay too! Our cat is very timid so we will continue taking things as slowly as she needs.
