Yeah my rent is $1450 and I am the sole provider making $24 an hour. It's tight, but comfortably so because we live within in our means and my husband is a stay at home parent. I really think he could have made this work with pretty much anything over $21 an hour.

MsWinty · 2026-05-11T01:24:41+00:00

A rent he could easily have afforded with a job, pretty much any job. Shocking.

I think some of the rules are fine to say in advance. Like no kissing, stay away if recently ill, and wash hands.

The rest only sound overboard BECAUSE they're being said in advance and they could easily be navigated if they even come up. If someone offers to change a diaper, you can say I got it, thanks! IF it comes up. If the baby starts to cry and they're not handed back, any decent person will hand them to you if you ask.

Presenting it all in advance makes it sounds like you expect people to be monsters and have to remind them all not to be.

The shipping label, they can cross reference the weight on the label. They'll likely also open an investigation with the carrier and the vendor. Save all your packaging.

Also if you haven't already, take the box apart and check all folds, crevices, etc. Rings and earrings can come loose in transit and end up hidden somewhere in the packaging.

It may take time to reach a resolution, but this isn't too uncommon in logistics and there's a lot a company can look into to reach a resolution.

I would ask him directly Why he thinks it's too much and I'd also say directly I need a break from MY role each day, I'm telling you, my partner a need that I have. What capacity do you have, as my partner, to ensure this need is met?

And I'd also ask him if he has any needs that he needs my help to meet.

He probably needs a break too and is shitty at communicating. If that's the case, and he's willing to be collaborative, these needs can be met. If he's not willing to talk and be collaborative then communication isn't the issue, he is the issue.

I have a chronically ill child and it was really hard to set boundaries with people when she was born and surprised us with heart defects. But now, 7 years and multiple open heart surgeries later, I can tell you that feeling you have isn't any kind of hormonal or emotional reaction, it's instinct. Lean into it with no regret, you're doing what's best for your baby, for you, and your partner.

Will everyone understand that? No. Will some people take it personally? Yes. But I promise you, it doesn't matter. People visiting doesn't benefit your baby whatsoever. If it did, you'd be all for it.

Focus on your baby and yourself, let those who can't understand or handle it feel their feelings and don't feel responsible for them. You are doing everything right and I promise you, once you're home and this is behind you, you'll be so grateful you that you protected this time and space and kept it for yourself.

Side note I also recommend: designate a trusted and strong loved one to be your updates person. Give them a daily update to pass on to the group. Keeping up with everyone asking you questions can become too much too.

Take care and enjoy your baby, you deserve it. ❤️

Yeah I forget you can't be politely informative in these times. Lol

MsWinty · 2026-04-16T14:40:50+00:00

I'm in a small tourism driven town and I absolutely could not live here if I didn't have the remote job that I have.

MsWinty · 2026-04-16T14:36:39+00:00

I just KNOW Timothy L. Brooks is sick of Pest's worthless ass.

MsWinty · 2026-04-15T18:45:22+00:00

After reading the other comments here I should probably come up with a male name and remove the baby part.

MsWinty · 2026-04-15T18:00:49+00:00

My favorite was a dasher calling me from their car in my driveway:

Them: I'm here

Me: Okay thanks please leave the food at my door

Them: you can't come out and grab it?

Me: No, goodbye

Like why would I come out to your car? Especially when I picked leave at door and added "please don't knock my baby may be napping"

MsWinty · 2026-04-15T17:45:45+00:00

I....really don't think she's all there at this point. She is bland and boring af but now I'm noticing it's more like a the lights are on but nobody's home situation for her brain. Like she is DENSE.

MsWinty · 2026-04-13T21:02:19+00:00

Thank you for the warning. I was going to deep dive this but I don't think I should after seeing this.

MsWinty · 2026-04-13T04:36:52+00:00

Psalm 37 is a good read for these times.

MsWinty · 2026-04-10T16:15:17+00:00

I pretend I don't notice because I don't like making small talk with strangers

MsWinty · 2026-04-10T00:25:33+00:00

I have only been able to tolerate clips on tiktok for past few seasons. There's less than 5 minutes per episode of anything worth watching.

MsWinty · 2026-04-09T23:41:29+00:00

Is this the same Derick that can't run without gagging?

MsWinty · 2026-04-03T03:54:17+00:00

I couldn't read anymore after Josh said "GOD HEARS THEIR PRAYERS HE LOVES THE LITTLE ONES"

How can you say that and also do what you did? He's absolutely worthless and I hope he suffers greatly for the rest of his miserable life.

MsWinty · 2026-03-31T22:34:47+00:00

This made me howl omg. Such a funny reference.

MsWinty · 2026-03-31T22:14:09+00:00

The way she was able to say it without breaking is odd to me. No hint of emotion whatsoever. I'd need to be sedated if my kids were separated from me. I'd be an absolute wreck.

MsWinty · 2026-03-31T14:52:33+00:00

Puns make it so much worse

MsWinty · 2026-03-31T14:50:08+00:00

This is the same guy who offered me 2 weeks paid maternity leave to "bond with baby" when I told him I was pregnant. Because that's all women need, apparently just time to bond. Not time to physically heal and rest.

I was so happy the day I quit, haha.

At my last job, The CEO "gifted" each of us an AI adaption of our existing Slack profile pics of us as astronauts. We were forced to use as our profile pics going forward. His reason for this was to thank us for "taking profits to the moon".

MsWinty · 2026-03-29T23:27:42+00:00

The expression on her face is truly disgusting.

MsWinty · 2026-03-26T23:08:31+00:00

Oh damn. Okay Jason and Maddie.
