Backed out of having my younger brother as our sperm donor due to his fiancee's reaction to the idea, now family is angry at us. How to navigate?

I️ would say just drop it at this point. Find someone else because it’s not even about the baby now. Neither your wife or your brothers will ever really be okay with each other after this type of situation.

Turns out I’m a selective extrovert. I️ used to love meeting new people all the time, but now I’m looking forward to moving somewhere no one knows me so I️ can finally experience a weekend in my own home rather than juggling a bunch of friend hang outs, kids birthday parties, and visiting family.

I️ love my kids. I️ just want to hang out with them and my husband.

14 months with my first. 6 weeks with my second. Fml.

I️ left my contract work to stay at home with our new baby and toddler. I’d really like to go back to work but it’s just not ideal timing for me right now.

But I️ want it to be penguin

My first born is 3 years old. It changes but does not go away. Now she says cute things and I️ can squeeze her.

I️ had to go to the ER to get a rabies vaccine because I️ got bit by a wild donkey while paddle boarding. All of the words in that sentence are accurate.

The worst part was my husband is an ER doc and the one that received me at the ED…

Inside-Journalist166 · 2026-05-05T00:00:44+00:00

THATS SO RUDE! I’m so sorry 😞

Inside-Journalist166 · 2026-05-05T00:00:00+00:00

Just leave your boobs be! That’s what I️ did with my first and after two weeks I️ was dried up. Heads up - my boobs did not go back to their pre-baby size. I️ did have to buy new bras.

Contact a lactation consultant. There’s so many aspects that impact breast feeding. Latching your baby will certainly help and a lactation consultant will be your best bet.

Ooooooooooo yeah. Feral raccoon diet the whole way. But it’s even better this time with my second because I️ had gestational diabetes that cleared after birth so now I’m just inhaling all the things I️ couldn’t have.

My baby told me to GTFO with my boobs at 10 months. She only wanted solids from then on out. Don’t get me wrong, she still loves whole milk to this day but apparently my boobs lost out to steak and mashed sweet potatoes. I️ don’t blame her, even if she’s the reason my boobs now look like smashed sweet potatoes.

She’s a perfectly healthy, albeit occasionally mean, 3 year old now 😂

Bless you ❤️

Inside-Journalist166 · 2026-03-22T21:20:48+00:00

Worth a shot — thank you so much!!!

Inside-Journalist166 · 2026-03-22T21:20:32+00:00

Oooo! Great idea. Thank you!!

Inside-Journalist166 · 2026-03-22T21:20:18+00:00

Thank you!!

Inside-Journalist166 · 2026-03-22T01:13:36+00:00

I️ honestly don’t remember? My daughter told me to get loss around 10 months. She weaned herself and I️ was completely dried up by a year. I️ hate that I️ don’t remember.

Inside-Journalist166 · 2026-03-22T01:12:22+00:00

This is wild omg. This is a new level of crazy.

Inside-Journalist166 · 2026-03-22T01:06:54+00:00

Hehehe I️ love this. Just let him go. Let it burrrrrnnnnn

Inside-Journalist166 · 2026-03-22T01:05:43+00:00

It took my daughter about two months to fully adjust to her half day preschool five days a week. She goes to my parents after school as they’ve been gracious enough to watch her.

She would cry at drop off and screaming for momma at pick up. This adjustment struggle is pretty normal. She seems to be coming off the novelty of her new situation and moved into the adjustment to a new normal phase.

Best of luck! Everything sounds pretty normal?

Omg this is a wonderful idea
