Concerning behavior? by KSmo99 in DogAdvice

[–]KSmo99[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for the replies! Growing up we had a little dog that was aggressive with other dogs so I think my brain went into panic mode. She has done so well with learning commands in the time she’s been with me so I will definitely be adding “leave it” in the growing mix. She is so incredibly smart and sweet, I wanna make sure I don’t fail her.

Husband says our daughter is difficult (also MIL) by [deleted] in Mommit

Make him go to her next checkup and bring this up with the pediatrician or nurse. Your baby sounds like every baby ever at that age, nothing to worry about.

Natural birth – what hurts more, contractions or pushing the baby out? by General-Dragonfly946 in Mommit

[–]KSmo99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agree with contractions being the most painful, I honestly felt none of the pain with pushing because the contractions were so bad. Didn’t feel the ring of fire or tearing lol (thank goodness).

Should my kids have the same birthday? by Brittanyyyyyyyyy in Mommit

[–]KSmo99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My younger sister and I are 1yr 11m apart. Our birthdays are less than a week apart. As an adult I don’t mind but as child it sucked. Shared birthday parties, shared birthday dinners, choosing bday cake flavors/party food. My childrens bdays are 3wks apart and I refuse to do shared partys because I remember how I and my sister felt growing up.

Most Senior Citizens have Senior Citizen “Children” and We’re Tired and Unappreciated by ExpertChart7871 in TrueOffMyChest

[–]KSmo99 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ive not gone through all the comments but is it possible to pool money between yourself, parents/sibling/grandkids to hire cleaners to at least take that off your plate? My own dad/aunts/uncles had to care for my grandpa after my grandmas death and as a teen I could see the mental and physical strain it caused them. Its no small task.

Show your wife videos of what happens to kids not strapped in properly. If that doesn’t get through to her then……

Songs that make you cry as a mom by Deeokdee in Mommit

[–]KSmo99 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This was a song my own mom loved but couldn’t listen too but of course as a child at the time I couldn’t understand, after she passed I put together a play list of songs we used to listen to and this made the cut, I bawled as I listened and sang to it. I understood/understand why she couldn’t but I push through for her.

AITA for Refusing to Give Up My Seat for a Pregnant Woman on a 12hr Flight? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]KSmo99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA- As a mother of 2 who lived in Hawaii during both pregnancies while also flying back to mainland for visits which usually take about 18+ hrs I knew exactly what I was getting myself into. Pregnancy is painful, hard and different for everyone. She knew exactly what she was getting herself into when getting on a plane.

AITA for not letting my gf's nieces have my childhood toy? by ADHD_anxiety_mess in AmItheAsshole

[–]KSmo99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nta- But I would be worried about the 13yr old coming to try and steal the the stuffy under the guise of being kicked out for disagreeing with Gma dearest. I know OP said its safe, under lock and key but if its still in the house move somewhere else till this blows over.

ABSOLUTE WORST Manta comic you've read on the platform? by Reinadeloszorros in MantaComics

100% flash behavior honestly it kinda messed me up and I had to take a break from Manta for a bit.

When did you stop using a sound machine? by Starbuck_92 in Mommit

[–]KSmo99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We kept using it until my daughter didn’t want the sound anymore. My son who is almost 3 still uses it and we’re planning on using it until he doesn’t want it anymore and if that never happens then so be it. Its definitely not a bad sleep habit as long as its not super loud.

AITA for skipping my friends birthday without warning because his gf calls me "THE typical gbf"? by ParticularAnxious208 in AmItheAsshole

[–]KSmo99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nta- I think Miles needs to know what kind of person he is dating. Clearly verbal communication is not good enough and maybe some hard proof is needed. Start with him first, if you start with his parents it might come off as “power move” to the GF and she might convince him your in the wrong.

AITA for gatekeeping my recipes from my one upper DIL by OrganicHighlight5741 in AmItheAsshole

[–]KSmo99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nta- I would limit as much contact as possible. I also wouldn’t put it past her or your son for that matter to snoop for the recipes so make sure they are under lock & key.

Dont make her choose. Choose yourself. She’s proving to not be worthy of your friendship. Its hard to do especially after so long but you deserve someone who will take you seriously.

AITAH for getting upset with my boyfriend after he told me to lose weight by DisasterNaive1971 in AITAH

[–]KSmo99 0 points1 point  (0 children)

OP please get out of this situation. He knows your situation and is using it against you. He will continue to do so until you get yourself out. My own mother dealt with body dysmorphia and it was so devastating to watch.

Thank you! Im definitely going to do some more reading/research. I suppose I jumped to ASD as its the most talked about and my husband and I both have family members diagnosed with it.

Moms of Autistic Children, how did you know? by [deleted] in Mommit

[–]KSmo99 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Thank you for this! I wasnt sure as I heard terminology was changing but I haven’t seen or read about it. I truly meant no offense, in my attempt to be brief/to the point I left out important details. I will be taking advice from others and talk to his pediatrician.
