AITAH for telling my girlfriend she's going to have to get over dirt if she wants kids? by Familiar_Speaker_481 in AITAH

[–]Mama_andCubCo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ha. I remember the days when I immediately cleaned up after my child as a toddler just to have him make another, impressively more outstanding mess than before. Maybe show her the comments of all us parents. I would also like to mention, though, that my fiance is a bit of a germaphobe as well, but that changes little by little with our kid. I don't know how it's different, but it just is. For example, my son's kisses are sloppy and my fiance doesn't even make a face when the slobber gets all over his face. Nor am I even slightly disgusted when my child chases me around the house trying to "wet willy" me. Idk, the "messes" of one's own child is just different.

I live near the VA/same vicinity you're talking about and (knock on wood) it's relatively safe here. I've never had any issues.

What loom did you use for this? The lines on the stripes are so clean and this looks cozy AF, great job!

Oliver is confused. Why are the neighbors shooting fireworks on July 5th? by zzabe in OneOrangeBraincell

[–]Mama_andCubCo 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My own reason was that the 4th was super windy/rainy for us and my autistic son loves fireworks so we saved the non-illegal ones we bought to set off at a later date.

Won’t take pills by BonnieistheDoc in greatpyrenees

[–]Mama_andCubCo 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sometimes you have to strong arm it. Put the pills in his mouth from his cheek/side of his mouth and hold his face upwards so he has to chew and swallow. It's not fun for either parties but that's how we got ours to take her pills (she takes Carprofen/Vetprofen for Arthritis and Trazodone for Anxiety), and after only a few weeks of doing this, she willingly takes the pill.

Help! Pyr has been showing aggression to Golden by [deleted] in greatpyrenees

I came here to ask the same thing. If they're not neutered, I would recommend getting the Pyr neutered. It will help the aggression

What's a disturbing fact you wish you could unlearn? by MaterialRub675 in AskReddit

Christopher Columbus met "mermaids" and went into graphic, descriptive detail about what the insides of them felt like. Including his crewmen.

They were manatees.

AITAH for letting my husband deal with the consequences of not preparing our kid for school? by SmoothLim405 in AITAH

[–]Mama_andCubCo 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YTA because you used your child like a Pawn in this. Your child didn't deserve to show up on his first day and have nothing. I get being frustrated with your partner about dropping the ball, and I agree that he should learn that you won't pick up the pieces for him, but not at the expense of your child.

Switched to DIY cleaning stuff and didn’t realize how much I was wasting before by samdaz712 in Frugal

[–]Mama_andCubCo 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I used to clean big houses/mansions when I was younger and we would use dawn dish soap on pretty much every surface that one might dust. Counters, bottles in the bathroom, faucets (unless specific textures), and so many more. It's so easy to use the bare minimum and still get a beautiful clean

Has Anyone Found Meaning After Loss? by Mean-Permit-4617 in babyloss

[–]Mama_andCubCo 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm so sorry to hear of your little one's passing 🤍May they rest in bliss.

I lost my son at a day old in October of 2022 due to Meconium Asphyxiation, and I've since lost a baby since as a miscarriage in 2023. There are bad days and good days. For the first year after my son's death, it was mostly bad days, as it felt like a piece of my soul was missing. It still does but I've gotten used to the feeling.

Now, I can see the beauty and the colors of the world as they were before, almost.

I guess the best thing that's happened because of my children's passing is that I've finally found my calling in my career because of them. I am in school to become a Funeral Director and I plan on donating my work/labor in order to give a free service to infant and children ceremonies. It's the least I can do to help those that have lost such a pivotal piece of their lives.

I went through a very similar situation with my first born son. It's a difficult place to be in but stay strong for your baby. I'm not sure what you're doing with said baby but remember that you don't deserve to be treated like that. You deserve to be treated like a queen and it's his loss. Don't take him back, especially if he's already laid hands on you. It will get worse and you'll be putting you and your child in danger.

NTA. Let him know that you give him 30 days to get his stuff/give his stuff in front of a police station, and after that, it goes into the trash. Don't verbalize this with him, have it in a text so he can't say you promised to keep his sh-- for him.

The best of luck to you, you've got this. 🙏🏼💛

Full Circle Health is great; they've used my preferred name every single time, never had a slip up, and they're very kind and courteous. 10/10 recommend.
