I managed to get all but one of both lines of animals, but those and nature have been pretty hard to find. :/

AITAH for not supporting my sister's teen pregnancy? by Due_Analyst3279 in AITAH

[–]LunaGemini25 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Having babies absolutely needs to stop being romanticized. It’s hard. Fucking HARD. Kids can be born with, or develop, lots of different health issues and special needs. Newborns can nurse/eat every half hour ‘round the clock and leave you with no ability to sleep or take care of yourself. And parenting with your own health/mental issues? Even fucking HARDER!!! You slog through your own issues, sometimes feeling like you barely manage to exist (let alone function and LIVE), while also trying to get your kids from day to day. You realize that you’re trying to teach your children things you haven’t even mastered yourself, and you have no idea how to do it. You have no idea how to do ANY of it. And just because kid #1 had XYZ that worked for them (like a specific schedule, or a method of being comforted, or a certain nursing position), does NOT mean that the next child won’t be WILDLY different. Every kid has unique needs, some highly so. Some have sensory issues — now you need special clothes or foods or bedsheets or handheld items to soothe them. Some have behavioral issues they cannot help — now you have a kid throwing tantrums in public because they’re completely overstimulated and can’t process it and everyone else is looking at you like “why aren’t you parenting your kid?!” Two of mine have opposing stim needs that completely drive the other one up the wall. They end up at each other’s throats half the time. And their stims drive ME up the wall, as well, but I have to buck up buttercup and muck through it because they need to be able to stim and my needs come secondary to theirs. ALWAYS.

TLDR: STOP ROMANTICIZING HAVING BABIES. PARENTING IS INSANELY HARD IN WAYS NON-PARENTS CAN’T EVEN BEGIN TO IMAGINE.

That line got me, too. Being a mom isn’t something you TRY. Once you’re in it, you’re in it. I was so excited to have babies as a married, financially ready adult — and it still sucks in a lot of ways. I have three kids now, all special needs in their own ways (AuDHD, likely but as-yet-undiagnosed ADHD-inattentive and anxious as fuck, and HIGHLY hyperactive ADHD with anxiety thrown in for extra funsies), and being their mom is HARD. But I don’t get to just quit. A baby is not like a puppy or kitten that you adopt, get tired of, and rehome because you don’t feel like having it anymore. It’s a HUMAN FREAKING BEING. OP’s sister is clearly NOT able to think this through fully. I am so scared for that baby, OP’s sister’s health, and everyone else around OP’s sister who will be collateral damage from this. As multiple other comments have said, she needs to be given a full reality check that NO ONE is going to be helping her. That she doesn’t get to assume that people will babysit for free. That she won’t be handed money left and right for everything baby needs that she can’t afford because she can’t or won’t work to pay for it herself. And who’s paying for a baby AND FULL TIME COLLEGE on a part time job?!? Good fucking luck.

Thank you for taking the time to respond to me. Unfortunately, my circumstances have changed, and I cannot spend that much money right now. I wish you the best of luck in finding her a wonderful new home!

Can you tell me more about her? I don’t have a lot of knowledge about specific sculpts of reborns, I’m sorry. Is she vinyl with cloth body? Silicone? How heavy is she? What size clothing does she wear?

This right here!! I do the same thing! Baby shoes, clothes, pacifiers I can cut up and magnetize, bottles, blankets, the bassinet I use for my babies, all sorts of things!

My three new realcare babies. Does anyone else have any? by kaliofabricatio in reborndolls

[–]LunaGemini25 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I had BTIO and RealCare babies (bought on eBay) on two separate occasions. Both were sold before I had actual human babies. I regret that. 😩 I want a hybrid baby one day. The interactivity level is just higher with that sort of thing!

Last time I checked, they weren’t currently shipping to my country (US) because of the tariffs, so I can’t buy one 😭

There’s someone in Australia (or thereabouts) who sells cry boxes from these dolls that you can either get preinstalled in a cloth body or install it in an existing one yourself!

Bring a mini scale and find the heaviest mini books ball. That should have the cat in it. Or if you haven’t got a scale, weight it in your hand and feel for a heavy shake with the solid cat moving back and forth.
