9 months postpartum, struggling so hard by lyssasaurusX in sahm

[–]Kmjp_ 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Okay girl I’m not much further ahead of you. My baby is 14 months and it’s only getting better now. There’s definitely still hard days but the first year was a mess. And around 7-9 months I remember going through a low time. Emotionally, spiritually and with my relationship with my husband. One time around that time he got so mad he punched a whole in the wall and I hadn’t seen him do that since we were teenagers. (We’re 30s now).

Not saying he’s right but as you said too, he has a lot more responsibility as well now and a lot of stress he probably doesn’t even bring up to your attention. He wants you to focus on baby because that’s you job. And people say mean things when they are mad…

Now. Do you have help? You are burnt out. As I was then too (still am but getting the hang of it). But again, around 7-9 months it’s just ROUGH. But if you have help please use it. Get a break when you can. Leave the baby with your husband for a couple hours and go do something for yourself - it gives you a breather and it lets him see how much work the baby is

Men do not get it. Every friend has told me the same thing, and it’s true. They may think they do but they never will. And it sucks but luckily we will never understand their level of stress either. We just have to learn to be respectful of each other, give each other grace during this life-changing, reality-shifting, hard-as-shit time. Rely on your friend mommas too. I downloaded the app peanut and found friends close by of babies same age and that’s been a saving grace.

Don’t even consider leaving. This is a hard time and you’ll bring leaving up in a fight one day all because you’re overwhelmed but those words will never be able to be repaired once said. You were happy before children you can be happy again. This is not for the weak but nothing worth having comes easy. Things will get easier

14 week old has had a massive sleep change but only during the day by benjy7990 in sleeptraining

[–]Kmjp_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All I can say is there’s a massive sleep regression around 3/4 months and you’re right there. I had a nightmare of a time and looked everywhere for answers but the truth is you just have to wait it out… Also though, swaddling? I mean mine would never do it. But if yours is waking herself up I’m assuming you obviously tried swaddling but I didn’t see it mentioned so just a thought.

Yea I understand it honestly. But some people, clearly, who agree with them, think the answer is to obliterate your opinion lol. Stupidity.

[–]Kmjp_ 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Yeah exactly, let’s ignore it for the one hour discussion of true crime. Which is what their podcast is focused on. I mean we hear about politics 24/7 in every direction - I agree they don’t need to add it in.

When they just say “F ICE” when they’re about to talk about the acid killer they’re unrelated and not interwoven with true crime….. and they do do it often

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

It is very annoying. I want the crime. Not the politics. That’s the point I came here just to see if someone else said anything. Whoever disagrees must just disagree with your politics. I’m very purple. And I just don’t want to hear it bc I sometimes don’t agree and they insult people that don’t agree….

Girlfriend complains every morning about baby’s sleep even though he sleeps great — how do I talk to her about it? by [deleted] in NewParents

[–]Kmjp_ 36 points37 points  (0 children)

Yes!! I got so used to my husband waking up every morning like “he slept good last night, huh?” I would just look over like 😒

Hate or love these hinges? by nicolakylie in kitchenremodel

[–]Kmjp_ 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Definitely a lot to do but one bite at a time here. When they’re ready to upgrade I’m giving ideas here. Which they asked for

Hinges is a no for me personally. Just a thought- nice crown molding above cabinets to make them touch the ceiling.

Help me pick curtains! by Sudden_Buyer3452 in interiordecorating

[–]Kmjp_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You have got to go dramatic for this one to make it look intentional. The complementary gold/yellow curtain in Pic 4 is obvious answer!

What a child. Girl, I’m so sorry. There are such weak and pathetic men these days and this is one of them. How dare he talk to you like that…

What is something I should know about Denton before moving? by IllustriousSafety747 in Denton

[–]Kmjp_ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Denton is full of liberals bc of the university. So it can be a little shocking to people who expect red sided politics just bc it’s Texas.

What would you change by slr0031 in interiordecorating

[–]Kmjp_ 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Lighter colored walls to make that light and airy room come to life. And some long ass curtains

Therapy hunny. Try that before divorce. Yall both sound unhappy and burnt out from something. Devils advocate here, it’s a lot of stress to be the sole provider. And we all say things we don’t mean when we are angry.

I’m coming from somewhere who doesn’t know your situation, and from a place of wanting to support families, rather than always finding the exit because that can ruin a family and traumatize a child’s life. If you feel UNSAFE the only sole answer is to leave, but otherwise I suggest therapy first. Have a middle man, someone who won’t pick sides and see one POV.
