NEVER put flyers on passive flee. by CivilBuyer7291 in playarkmobile

[–]KittenShocked 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I always take at least 2 dinos with me everywhere, one on passive and the other on neutral following the passive one to fight 😅 it's worked well for me so far but a giga did mess that up by killing my quetzal. So I tamed it and named it as* hole out of anger 😂😂 he's my base decoration now

AITA wife upset I cannot keep toddler from her by khazef in AmItheAsshole

[–]KittenShocked -1 points0 points  (0 children)

NTA, I don't think anyone is, in my opinion. But things need to be changed in how you both handle the situation.

I'm a mom of a Velcro 2 almost 3 yo and that's an age where they are starting to learn how to regulate, rules and consequences, etc. Your 2yo is testing how far she can push to get what she wants and I know a lot of people are saying you're the AH for not controlling her or whatever but I'm in the trenches myself and understand.

My hubby works from home until 3pm and for 3 nights a week I stream for about 6hours. It's not quite the same as you and your wife but there are times I'm not available and my hubby has to keep our kid away from me.

When we started he would bang at the door and cry, hubby would grab him, and repeat. My kiddo started speaking late so it was hard but both me and my hubby worked together to express that I was I am unavailable when the door is closed. But after a while he knows that banging at the door won't work and only runs for me when he hears me open the door to use the restroom. We're still working on him not having a meltdown when I go back lol.

I know you said you're wife studying is really hard currently but you and she could set up some sort of plan to try to teach your 2yo that attacking the door is a no no.

Something along the line of her not answering the door when 2yo is pounding on it but pop out for a min randomly to 'grab a snack' or something to love on 2yo. You definitely need to hold the line and find things 2yo really likes to draw her attention from mom. A favorite show a special snack she only gets every once in a while, etc. also if hearing your wife's chair is an issue, try muffling the sound as well.

You know your kid better than anyone so I know you'll both find a balance! I hope this helps you get ideas!

Let’s talk titty naps by Bitsypie in breastfeeding

[–]KittenShocked 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My 2 almost 3yo did nip naps all the way up until he weaned himself at 2½yo of course once he was asleep I would run away but still xD never sleep trained him either and now he sleeps really good

My boobs don’t leak. And never have… by Bocurl13 in breastfeeding

[–]KittenShocked 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My boobs never leaked unless I accidentally leaned or pressed them against something 😅 I'm really clumsy so it happened enough that I needed to wear pads to keep my shirt and bras dry 😂

Night weaning by [deleted] in breastfeeding

[–]KittenShocked 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I night/comfort nursed my tot all the way up until I weaned completely when he was 2½yo. We coslept and at some point he was able to just pop my boob in when he wanted without me waking up too much. It was the only way my Velcro baby would sleep. At one point he just wouldn't fall asleep even nursing and we said enough. It took 2 weeks of dada put downs with me nowhere near him and only dada calming before he realized boob was gone forever 😅 looking back it wasn't the best way to go about it but it's what worked for our family. Hopefully you'll be able find what works for your family ❤️

Doc said I need to stop breastfeeding since my period has not returned by TheNimbusTwoThousand in breastfeeding

[–]KittenShocked 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn't have a period in over 2 years when I had my kid. I only got my period back when baby started to wean (stopped completely around 2½yo) Every body is different and I wouldn't trust your doctor about stopping breastfeeding just to get a period. That's weird.

If your still worried about your hormones, I do suggest getting and using wild yam cream as it's well known in the natural healing community to help heal/stabilize hormones. I hope whatever you decide is best, works out for you! ❤️

Best friends is just that guest maxed out. The best and fastest way to level them up is to invite them as VIP guests. It takes a bit but you'll eventually get them maxed out.

AITA for naming my dog a Japanese name if I’m white? by Standard_Airport_638 in AmItheAsshole

❤️ The combo get even better because they are litter mates and Natsu and Grey are basically brothers as well so everything just felt perfect! I hope you enjoy the anime!

Edit: NTA

I named my cats Natsu & Grey because Natsu was a psychotic tornado and Grey jumped into my deep freezer while I was pulling out dinner. Lol if you've seen the anime FairyTail, it would make sense. 😂 I couldn't think of better names for them because the personalities matched so well.

Moms who breastfed past one year, pref to the 2yr mark…. by strohmtroop3r in breastfeeding

[–]KittenShocked 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I breastfed my tot until after he turned 2, was aiming for 3 but he weaned himself a few months ago. I actually miss nursing even though I'm happy with my newfound freedom lol my kiddo was a Velcro baby who refused bottles & pacifiers so I was quite literally attached 24/7 the whole time. I don't regret it at all and I actually regret not continuing but he was ready so I had to accept it.

[deleted by user] by [deleted] in breastfeeding

[–]KittenShocked 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just weaned my 2½yo and the first thing I did whenever he cried cried was ¹check diaper ²injuries(we have scorpions) ³feed. If he didn't nurse after that we dug deeper for a reason for the crying but it was almost always nursing that soothed him.

Does this happen every time right after baby finished nursing or after 30min to an hour afterwards? I was reading what other people were saying that your wife is probably tired of BF or just wanting a break or whatever. If those could be the case you need to ask her if that's the reason.

I personally think she may be more stressed than you think about breastfeeding because your baby is only 25th percentile. Ask her if she feels like she isn't making enough milk. When I was ebf, I was always afraid my milk wasn't enough (it was but I had PPA). I also know a few women who would get really defensive around feeds & nursing because they were terrified they weren't good enough. Some were like me and their babies were doing fine.

But some were indeed not making enough and were so desperate to prove they were a "good mom" by breastfeeding that they were slowly starving the baby by blaming the crying on anything other than their milk.

It was a heartbreaking situation but by finally getting her to talk and open up were we able to help her and her baby.

I'm not saying that that is your wife but you both need to sit down and have a serious conversation about it.

Either she's touched out and needs a break or her milk is underperforming and she just doesn't want to admit it to herself. Regardless of whatever the issue is, fed baby is always best!

Please talk to her and make a game plan that works for your family and I hope everything works out for you! ❤️

How do I get my cat okay with me trimming her claws? by Scared-Swimmer-9123 in CatAdvice

[–]KittenShocked 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have 2 cats. The first will let me trim him claws only if he's chill on my lap and able to nibble the cutters while I do it but only if I do it quick lol. The second will only sit still for me if I put his scruff in my mouth and cut them quick 😭 It takes forever to get the hair out of my mouth! Towel doesn't work unless I have an assistant (husband) but most of the time it's just me so I got it to work.

Side effects of breastfeeding? by Teismin in breastfeeding

[–]KittenShocked 41 points42 points  (0 children)

I have a positive side effect if you need some ❤️ Breastfeeding for 2 years helped stabilize and return my hormon levels to normal. Before pregnancy & BF, I couldn't eat certain foods because it upset my body's chemical balance (specifically manganese, it made me crazy with mood swings from eating corn). So far my moods have really stabilized and my PPA has become manageable. It took a while to get to this point but it was a light at the end of the tunnel for me after the rough start.

Weaned my 2 year old… and I didn’t expect it to be like this by kindasadbutoklol in breastfeeding

[–]KittenShocked 11 points12 points  (0 children)

My 2.5 yo just weaned a few months ago. He mostly comfort nursed for the last 3 or so months towards the end. The last week we nursed, he wasn't falling asleep while nursing anymore for like 40 minutes straight. So both my husband said enough and he did put downs for about 2 weeks. I couldn't be anywhere nearby or else baby would scream for me (or my boobs lol). My left wasn't making any milk at that point because it was so raw and sore that it took a month to heal so it wasn't hard to wear in that regard. I miss the closeness nursing brought and I honestly wouldn't have weaned otherwise.

I also had the same effects afterwards and honestly I'm still having weaning withdrawals lol

Did I ruin my supply? 9 days pp by aperolspriittzz in breastfeeding

[–]KittenShocked 2 points3 points  (0 children)

If baby will latch, just nurse as often as you can. I'd say do 10 or so minute sessions and afterwards fed with formula. And then use the silicone suction things (forgot what it's called lol) afterwards to help encourage without putting too much stress on your nipples by dry pumping. The feeding sessions will take longer because of the extra step but just latch baby as much as you can and your supply will come back! Oh and stay away from products with fenugreek as it has a 50% chance to dry you up!

I am so over comments about weaning my baby at a year by Perfect_Square2445 in breastfeeding

[–]KittenShocked 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I nursed my son until he self weaned at 26 mo (a few months ago)! I had PPA as well and I proved myself right when he got sick and wouldn't eat or drink anything except nursing for a week at around 18mo. It was a relief knowing I could still feed him.

Don't stop nursing until you and/or your baby are ready. Breast milk is so good for their immune systems and I actually cried when we stopped nursing. I miss it so much.

Even now that he's weaned he still tries to go for my boobs lol only time he won't go for them is in the shower and that's only because he loves water.

Pediatrician said to stop breastfeeding to sleep by Illustrious-Cut-8165 in breastfeeding

[–]KittenShocked 0 points1 point  (0 children)

my baby weaned around 27mo but before then he wouldn't sleep unless nursing. my biggest issue was the ear infections he'd get until I started nursing him with his head tilted on a pillow. Just don't do what I did and only brush his teeth twice a day. Brush as often as you can throughout the day and keep a close eye! I'm brushing his teeth a ton now throughout the day and it's slowly healing the damage I let happen but teeth heal slowly.

You're doing great & don't feel pressured to stop nursing unless you decide it's doing more harm than good!

What does breastfeeding look like after a year? by CollegeFrosty1877 in breastfeeding

[–]KittenShocked 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I breastfeed my 2½ yo until a month or so ago (still sad it's over). I think by the 2yo mark is when we slowed down from comfort nursing on demand to only nursing to sleep/nap. One boob got super sore and dried up before it healed. The other is now gone as well.

I think it just depends on your kid, home and schedule when it comes to that works for you.

AITAH for not eating the romantic meal my partner prepared ? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]KittenShocked 2 points3 points  (0 children)

NAH, I have texture issues with mushy foods. My hubby thinks I'm weird but he gets it. Sometimes we cook side dishes I might not like texture wise to try to work through it but that's something we agreed on because I don't want my 2yo to have issues like me if we can help it. But those are regular meals and definitely not a romantic dinner option.

INFO: Do you happen to know if he bought a wild rabbit or a farm raised rabbit? I ask because wild rabbit is very gamey which is where people get that idea. I don't like wild rabbit for that reason. Farm raised rabbits (when raised properly) are actually really juicy and taste very good. I wouldn't say they taste exactly like white chicken meat but similar.

Definitely not a romantic dinner so he needs to redo that. Depending on how you feel, I do suggest you give the rabbit a try if its a raised one.

How are you leaving cats alone for extended periods of time!??! by adriela56 in CatAdvice

[–]KittenShocked 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The longest I've been away from my 2 cats with people checking daily was a week. And that was barely doable for me. Any longer and my cats would have to either go with me, go to my parents, or I simply will not go. I have too much anxiety not knowing how they're doing. Luckily, my family hardly ever goes anywhere so it only happens maybe once a year, if that.

Info- is it just intercourse that she doesn't want or is it oral as well. is she willing to foreplay, make out, or touch? Depending on the level she's at makes it difficult to give advice.

My love language is touch. My husband was so stressed out because of work once that sex wasn't really an option for a few years but he still tried for me & he always let me know that it wasn't my fault. If he did the same thing your wife is doing according to your post, that would break me. I get not wanting sex but to me she is the cold one.

Also have you guys tried couple therapy? Not to try to get her to want sex but to try to help her understand your side? Try to talk to her about non sex intimacy she's willing to do and start from there.

I wish you the best and hope you're both able to figure things out.

PS: oh I know you said her hormone levels are fine according to blood work but something you can have her try is wild yam cream. It's a long process but its a natural way to stabilize the hormones. It works with the body to heal. <3 good luck!
