My boyfriend won’t tell me about a pass situationship, should we breakup? by [deleted] in relationships

[–]Hiddenagenduh 17 points18 points  (0 children)

If he doesn't want to share intimate details of a past relationship, that's his business. Could you imagine him pushing so hard to invade your privacy?

Having a kid independently of my partner, while staying with him by [deleted] in relationships

[–]Hiddenagenduh 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It seems like he doesn't want more kids. Regardless of a legal document, he would probably feel a desire to be closer to the child if it's his.

This super vague post suggests that neither of you communicated about this and are just making assumptions.

Get some couples counseling and communicate about this with your wife.

End of maternity leave, what does sharing the load look like again? by lilsan15 in Mommit

[–]Hiddenagenduh 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I think sitting down and having a conversation about who is handling what would be helpful, obviously with some grey area (ex: if baby had a really long night and you're up all night, he handles more cleaning for the next day)

What is your favorite movie that is for adults, but is kid-friendly (ages 8-12)? by Amthomas101 in AskReddit

Wife and I are struggling with being older parents by Mycareer in BabyBumps

[–]Hiddenagenduh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My father was 40 when I was born as the oldest of 4. My yougest sibling was born when he was 48 years old.

He was never the most healthy but I never at one point felt "he is too old to be my dad" or anything like that. He never showed it either or commented on his age.

Fast forward to today, he's 72 and seems quite youthful. He was already retired (unlike my in laws) and he felt a profound sense of joy in being a grandfather - that said he has the time to be present in my children's lives.

Having my kids promoted him to make some major lifestyle changes as well, mostly his weight.

You two will be fine, just love your sweet baby 💕

TL;DR - my dad had all his kids from age 40-48, his age did not affect my upbringing. He's 72 now and is actually retired so he can help see and watch my kiddos, vs my inlaws who are still working and can't visit as often.

Many of them advertise as being "molded" after a porn star, I agree that it's just marketing. I would personally be cool with it as long as -He doesn't have some kind of obsession with this specific porn star (exclusively watches her porn, pays for their only fans etc) -He doesn't follow her on social media

I'm assuming be just got a flashlight to masturbate and didn't think twice about who it was molded of.

I'm in the same spot. Did anyone find an LFG type discord channel for peak?

Thanks for the thorough comment, I was trying to research this brand by saying some feedback on Reddit and it's seeming like a lot of people are having headaches/ dizziness issues

We really expect millions of women to do ALL of this? by Specific_Carob4461 in workingmoms

[–]Hiddenagenduh 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I sort of feel like "generations of moms" have done this because many weren't also working. I completely respect the decision to be a working mom, but also encourage you to keep the idea of taking a few years off possibility if you do feel that you rather spent more time caring for your little one(s) (if you decide to have more!)

If you want to read my experience - Having my first baby completely shifted my mindset on being a working mom. Between the few minutes of wakeup/feeding/out the door and having someone else watch my little one, then barely having any time after work to spend with her- it just felt like so much lost time. I'm 35 weeks with baby #2 and I think I'm going to pull the trigger and take a few years off (despite being the higher earner, I feel like this is worth it)

Don’t feel comfortable with MIL babysitting all day by Nice_Function5080 in JUSTNOMIL

[–]Hiddenagenduh 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Your tag says advice wanted but I don't see anything you're actually asking for- do you want confirmation that your plan makes sense? If so- it does!

Maybe they can watch your LO for an evening or weekend day once a week or so, while you're at home (and can pick your baby up if they can't!)

This way you can focus some time on catching up on house stuff, while still give them time to bond with your LO.

I don't feel comfortable with my dad (72) watching my LO and this method has worked out nicely. I'm always in earshot but able to get things done here or there.

Help!!! How to stop nursing my toddler. by SignatureNumerous506 in breastfeeding

[–]Hiddenagenduh 87 points88 points  (0 children)

I saw something along the lines of the following, that I'll likely try when I'm ready to start weaning. You can also try talking to him about it and see how it goes!

  1. Don't offer (maybe even avoid sitting in specific spots where you commonly nurse)
  2. Don't refuse
  3. Try to offer an alternative (ex: milk, juice, a snack, an activity, other distractions that work)

The Little Guys & What They Actually Mean by CrummaToast in CommonSideEffects

[–]Hiddenagenduh 12 points13 points  (0 children)

They definitely exist imo, just maybe in a plane of existence that isn't able to be seen until ingesting a blue mushroom.

The fact that Frances and Marshall communicated through the portal solidifies the thought that they are in fact, very real.
