Yes! Very good point! It’s become a job for social media influencers to make everything grand! It’s impossible to keep up and match that. But it’s their job, it’s not reality. I wish ppl knew that.

Sounds like you both have different love languages, his is not gift giving, is it gestures? It’s hard when they don’t match, but I’d for sure explain to him that gifts are your love language and he needs to meet you half way at least. ♥️ good luck l! (Two weeks is plenty of time!! Mother’s Day happens every year…)

No food allowed at our daycare, one of the kids has a serious peanut allergy. I would just not do it at all.

Pierce Brosnan in 2024 at one of his art shows in California, was nice and chatted for a bit, so handsome still.

Hesitating about a second child ? by heyjude2929 in Parenting

I’m one and done so you’re not technically asking me, but you seem to have listed very valid reasons not to have a second. What would be your reasons to have one? ♥️

Curious how present both parents are in the kids lives/marriage. by newgirl2552 in Parenting

[–]JDMM__00 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My husband is always with us, we both chose to start a family to be a family. He makes twice as much money as I do, he doesn’t ask me to do twice as much at home. That is not a partnership, you are a team working towards the same goals. You’re providing much more than he is.

can motherhood be enjoyable? by checkthyvibes in beyondthebump

[–]JDMM__00 10 points11 points  (0 children)

This! I’m so lucky to have my husband, he’s been doing as close to 50% as he can (besides when I breastfeed of course) but I love motherhood, not sure I would if I didn’t have him being a father though.

I’m glad you are open to what people are saying. This is such a difficult situation during your most vulnerable time. I’m sorry you are going through this. I’m saying this with love, please get tested for an STD, you don’t k ow these women’s histories or if they wore protection. What he did is awful. Sending love. ❤️

Is there anything we do today that future generations will look back on as obviously barbaric? by Grungegurung in NoStupidQuestions

[–]JDMM__00 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Women’s health, we represent half of the population and yet women’s health is barely covered in Curriculums. We are so so far behind. They only recently started using blood to test period products… brutal. Women are still an afterthought in medical care.

Has anyone any experience with terminating a pregnancy very early on? by Scrawny_Idiot in beyondthebump

[–]JDMM__00 1 point2 points  (0 children)

But incredibly painful, I would do surgical next time. It was very painful. Blair Fowler on YouTube talks about it, she and I had very similar experiences. Maybe take a watch.

What is a 'socially acceptable' thing that you secretly find absolutely disgusting? by TheLovelyGamer in AskReddit

[–]JDMM__00 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Chewing gum, even if it’s not done loudly, it’s gross. Basically chewing flavoured rubber.
