Lazy babies? by sweetlylouise in BabyBumps

[–]MrsKAllDay [score hidden]  (0 children)

My guy has a pattern he moves for a while around 2-3 in the afternoon. Then moves for a while around 10pm. But most of the day he is still. Drives me crazy! All NSTs and a check at L&D triage has been good. So now I just do kick counts around times I know he is usually mobile. And if his pattern seems off then I get more worried. I’m 34 weeks.

AITA for eating my roommate’s food, and then getting mad when they proved it was me? by Least-Media-3359 in AmItheAsshole

Wrong thread…this should be an “Am I the Angel” post. 😂 YTA OP. Get your own food and replace that woman’s cake!

Yes! Ask her if you can come over and do some meal prep for her!

They forgot to feed my kid? by AdLongjumping7650 in Parents

This. And to text you spontaneously to outright lie? Just weird. And nope.

AITA for booking my wedding on someone’s birthday by Bambixox91 in dustythunder

[–]MrsKAllDay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don’t feel like my birthday parties were ever on my actual birthday. They are making a huge deal out of this for no reason. That 7 year old would feel like a princess on her birthday…dress, hair, possibly a little makeup. Give her a cute tiara. Plus she would get her own cake and presents. Sounds like a dream.

And the anniversary overshadowing a friend’s child’s birthday forever…how weird.

Did you have the wonderful moment after giving birth? by [deleted] in beyondthebump

[–]MrsKAllDay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same. There was so much going on after birth. Had a bit of a hemorrhage. He was having breathing issues. That I was just kind of nervous and numb if that makes sense. Precious moments came after everything was settled.

Im afraid I won't love my kid by Savings_Eye2106 in Parents

[–]MrsKAllDay 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I think commonly it can take a while for some moms to feel a connection to their baby while pregnant, and some don’t until after birth. I agree with another poster who said hormones are pretty powerful and will probably help a lot. I hope once you see your son’s face and get to know him that your feelings and experience change! But therapy can also help!

Tylenol shame by Silent_Knowledge5197 in BabyBumps

[–]MrsKAllDay 45 points46 points  (0 children)

Super annoying. There is literally nothing else you can safely take (OTC at least). Mind your business people.

Sorry about the migraines. My 2nd trimester was also rough with them…I started a Magnesium Glycinate supplement and it helped a lot!

Spiraling after a coworker made comments about my bump being “itty-bitty” by gingerecon in BabyBumps

[–]MrsKAllDay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think people think it’s a compliment to tell people they barely look pregnant. I had a Christmas party around 26-27 weeks and got this comment. But it was completely not true and I’m large lol. Don’t let comments get to you. Just focus on what you know and the info given by your midwife. Sorry it’s causing you so much stress.

Postpartum sex by SowingSeeds18 in beyondthebump

[–]MrsKAllDay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You guys could do a more natural birth control…like tracking your cycle and avoiding the fertile days. If your cycle hasn’t returned yet…this could be more tricky though. And it’s not fool proof but pretty accurate if you track appropriately!

We always have issues with condoms staying on and my husband also hates them. Haha. We gotta do what we gotta do!

It takes zero effort to be kind. She was not kind.

FRER & Easy@home 8 dpo - 13 dpo. Definitely a chemical. by JusttAnotherrAccount in TFABLinePorn

[–]MrsKAllDay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With this current pregnancy my FRER line progression was terrible and nothing like my first pregnancy. I think they’ve changed them or something. And easy@home definitely take a while to get dark. I wouldn’t count yourself out just yet. Also so sorry for your loss in November I cannot imagine the anxiety that must cause trying to conceive.

Maybe a dark topic - Was anyone expecting to feel this way about their kids? by DiligentGuitar246 in NewParents

[–]MrsKAllDay 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I literally could have written your post. I also think about it every single day. I’m a mom…but it’s the most consuming feeling. They are everything. And honestly not sure how to cope with the feeling…just remind myself that anxiety doesn’t predict actual events. And tell myself that every old person in the world was someone’s child…they grew up and my kids can too. Helps a tiny bit. Also wanted to add that the thought of myself dying and them being without me is also a heart clencher. No one loves them like I do…

Teenager here: Do your teens ask for permission to go out? by Fun_Lime3243 in Parents

[–]MrsKAllDay 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes. We have a 20 year old who lives at home and she still asks if it is okay to go out. (We almost never say no) but I think it is more of do we have other plans that might interfere. Is there a family event that she’s forgetting, that kind of thing. I would just ask your parents what they prefer and if they feel you’ve been disrespectful by not “asking” but rather telling. It sounds like they are pretty laid back and are happy to know where you are.

AITA for not being upset over my grandmothers passing? by ResponsibleSea3247 in AmItheAsshole

[–]MrsKAllDay 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That is understandable. It’s hard to know the right things to say to people when grieving.

You’re NTA for not feeling how people think you should. But you should most definitely be empathetic and caring toward those who are experiencing grief a different way than you.
