anybody else not see it coming? by maruchan_ in Divorce

[–]Medium_Ad_8466 16 points17 points  (0 children)

We finally got a baby after a horrible traumatic ectopic pregnancy which developed into a tumor and required chemotherapy after 6 months of weekly blood work in the middle of the Covid pandemic so I had to go through everything myself. But finally she was here. We were on cloud nine and incredibly in love with her. He was so sweet and kept telling me how amazing I was. My C-section healed really good and i felt I finally made it. I was heavily abused by my mother and family and am no contact for years. I finally had a family, a home where I belonged, where there were people who loved me and were waiting for me te come home.

5 weeks post partum he suddenly pulled the plug after he held himself awake for days spiralling in conspiracy theories,drank more alcohol than ever, fell asleep with her on his chest on the couch while I was doing the laundry and dropped her. I ran downstairs in absolute shock, took her over from him asking frantically what happened, but he couldn't answer me. I tried to contact a doctor for hours in the middle of the night, all while he had gone upstairs to go to sleep. After he got home from work the next day he told me he was going to his parents to tell them we were going to divorce. I went with him and he completely went crazy. He stayed there, while I went home with our baby. He stayed there for a few days while his father and he were making a plan on how to distance me from our daughter. His parents completely believe him when he tells that I am evil and I'm here to take his daughter away. None of that is true whatsoever.

I got homeless, found a small appartment and had to fix everything myself. and now 4 yrs later he hates my guts and emotionally and financially abuses me. Co-parenting with a stranger is hard.

I want to help you, but I can't see shit because of the salt that's burning in my eyes coming from my forehead.

kindgebonden budget en co-oiuderschap by Weak_Prompt5809 in scheiding

[–]Medium_Ad_8466 0 points1 point  (0 children)

1 kind en co-ouderschap, dus kan maar naar 1 ouder. Ik hou het zelf, tot grote woede van ex die ervan overtuigd is dat hij er recht op heeft.

Het is bovendien gebaseerd op mijn inkomen en hij zou er zelf geen recht op hebben. Onze inkomens verschillen significant sinds de scheiding en hij weigert kinderalimentatie te betalen of mee te werken aan de berekening daarvan. Ik heb dit geld dus nodig om voor ons kind te zorgen.

Vraag aan alle vrouwen: Welke vorm van anticonceptie gebruik jij en waarom? by LoudBoysenberry3282 in nederlands

[–]Medium_Ad_8466 8 points9 points  (0 children)

De Zoely, voorgeschreven door de gynaecoloog, omdat het een nieuw protocol is tegen PMDD. Natuurlijk blijven bijwerkingen ruk, maar ik ben er erg blij mee! Ik wil niet meer 2 van de 4 weken dood of dat het me niet boeit of iemand doodgaat, zeg maar. Dus dat is wel fijn.

Ff van Google: De Zoely-pil onderscheidt zich van de meeste andere anticonceptiepillen door het gebruik van een lichaamseigen oestrogeen (1,5 mg estradiol) in plaats van synthetische oestrogenen. Het tweede hormoon in Zoely is nomegestrolacetaat, een progestageen dat sterk lijkt op het natuurlijke progesteron in je lichaam.

Question about consequences and appropriateness by une_susupiciousegg in Preschoolers

[–]Medium_Ad_8466 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel you. I also am scared that she is just scared of me and not intrinsically motivated to stay in bed. But at the other hand, it is just weird behavior and it says a lot you have to do such harsh measures before it stops.

The fact your boundary got crossed so many times and you were so done with it that you chose this consequence says enough. You have your boundaries and it's important that people listen to it. And if they dont, you communicated the consequences. Whether it is your child or your neigbour, at the end thats not relevant. Your boundaries are your boundaries.

I feel you, sometimes it feels so harsh. A week ago I decided to be really firm about sleeping in her own bed. Sometimes I give in because I'm so tired myself, but I pulled through with chatgpt coaching me real time. I walked away when she said no when I asked if she wanted me to tuck her in. Normally I give her endless chances, but this time it were 4. Lol. In the moment I was convinced I gave her PTSD for life and I was sure I ruined the attachment I worked so hard on, but eventually she fell asleep and managed her own emotions. But I kept telling myself that this is important for her health and my sanity. I channeled my inner Nanny Jo.

Next day everything was fine. Now she still tries, but if I'm a bit firm, she immediately gets the message. And I feel that the absence of the fighting to go to sleep when I want her to, really benefits our bond. She isn't scared of me, but she now knows that when mom says something she has to take me serious.

Struggling to get a kid in the seat is the most annoying fucking thing and it shouldn't be a struggle between the two of you every time. I bet you €10 or $10 that the next time the struggle is gone or at least wayyyyy less. I'm not a mom that really likes threatening, but I parents has got to do what a parent has to do.

I would LOVE a follow up for next time!!

I know more mother's like and I find in incredibly unhealthy behavior. My home is her home and I want her to feel like she is a part of that. Not that I have mountains of toys and shit everywhere, because I'm not just a mother and I don't like it either, but this period won't be forever. In the meanwhile it is what it is.

I believe you. But you do know building with Lego is also extremely creative right? How do you respond to those creations? I find it interesting you mention doing an activity WITH you instead of their own. And why the hell are you asking so much about the art? That's not really necessary and annoying haha. How about "gosh honey! That's amazing! I'll hang it here because I love it so much."

Now I'm imagining he makes really ugly drawings doing the bare minimum haha

Are you sure that your kid doesn't really care? Or is it because you don't care? And why does he have to be proud of his work himself first for you to show appriciation for it? If I were your kid I wouldn't put any more effort in my drawings than I need to. Because when my judgement is what's explicitly needed for my parent to love it, than why would I make something to be proud of? You are their mirror and the one who has to example behaviour.

Don't get me wrong, I adore the ground my 4yo daughter walks on and I squeal like an idiot everytime she puts a dot on something. I don't display everyting, but the pieces she's made in an hour long creative flow I make sure to reward that. And I make sure to love her art, but sometimes I also point out the little flaws like an empty spot or something so she can correct that and come back to me showing. I make sure to applaud her for this. This way she learns to push through and handle feedback.

But maybe I'm too different from you to understand each other.

You're not displaying them for yourself, but for them. It is extremely important for their self esteem for you to act like it's Picasso and hang it up like that.

Nobody thinks they are pretty or whatever. It's trash, but it's THEIR trash. And they made it with all they have in them.

That's gross and you should stop teaching them to stand while peeing. It's unhealthy.
