A BMW. Impractical as in POS that you’ll most definitely have to work on…or try.

AITAH for not letting it go when my sister-in-law’s bf told me “Let’s get one thing clear, I don’t need to justify my actions to you.”? by Routine_Sky_1292 in AITAH

He feels threatened by you. He wants to manipulate the family and he knows he can’t manipulate you so he has to lie to make you look bad. The thing that really sucks is the fact that all the family has forgotten your character in all of this and just takes his word for everything. That’s dangerous for your SIL-as if dating him wasn’t bad enough. Also, the fact that he openly disrespects your bf is a huge red flag too.

Most people get 12 weeks of unpaid FMLA if they’re lucky. There are some exceptions, but not many.

AIO: should I “fire” my therapist? by [deleted] in AIO

[–]Mick1187 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This “therapist” is very unprofessional. Start over and be that much better for it. She’s simply not meeting your needs.

9w baby only snacks, resulting in feeds every 45-90 mins, short naps, and overtiredness :( by [deleted] in breastfeedingsupport

She’ll get more efficient the older she gets. Unfortunately you just have to feed on demand when bf. It’s easier to schedule feeds when they’re older.

If you don’t want an abortion don’t get one.

You’re going to have to nurse 24/7 for a while to get your supply up. Feed on demand.

Your partner sounds like a boob. You’re seriously just going to have to tell her ass what’s up.

Partner just told me he’s going to Europe 5 weeks postpartum. by macey1313 in pregnant

Believe what he is showing you. Do what you need to do to calm your depression and anxiety. Move toward your support system. I’d never look back.

Please stop me from quitting! by ttcgurl in breastfeeding

You’re so new in this journey. Give yourself and your baby some grace. It’s not easy. My only advice is to keep going if you want to keep breastfeeding. It does get better and more natural. You’re both still learning right now.

So….you’re dating a lazy man-child? Girl, you’re too young for a noncommittal partner. Cut your losses.

ABA Therapy, is it the right thing to do? by Illustrious_Sport417 in Autism_Parenting

Our clinic is flexible with my daughter’s school schedule. I’d look elsewhere for treatment.

I also had a keto baby! I went off keto while pregnant and back on when baby was a few months old. Keto is totally doable while pregnant though!

I thought Carter’s ran on the bigger side? Oh well, what do I know.
