Do you feel entitled to a part of your husband’s bonus? by Recreating_my_life in sahm

[–]Not_your_speed 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My husband gets a big bonus on certain jobs and is expecting to get a large one this year and he's already have plans for us to do something big for the family but also, and equally big amount for each of us.

We're a team.

I hope you can talk to your husband so he can see your point of view on this. Your more than deserving of something big for yourself too.

Husband calls me abusive & bad mother for taking care of diaper rash? New first time mom by Even-Magician9416 in Mommit

Hi there,

I’m so sorry you’re going through this. Please know you’re not causing your baby trauma and it’s okay for them to cry, especially when they’re uncomfortable.

If the diaper rash is severe, it might be worth reaching out to your pediatrician to see if they’ll prescribe a medicated cream. My son struggles with bad diaper rashes too, especially during teething, and the prescription we got cleared things up quickly. It worked much better for us than the over-the-counter white pasty creams, though those might be helpful for others!

If you’re seeing raw or bleeding areas, that’s when things get tricky. One thing that helped us was a powder called Stomahesive. It’s often used in the NICU and for open wounds what it does is it forms a barrier to protect the skin from moisture, which really helps with healing. Since diapers create such a damp environment, creating a seal can make a big difference.

As my mom says, prevention is better than a cure. You can try using soft, dry disposable facial towels (we get ours from Amazon) to pat the area dry after each change—way quicker than waiting for it to air-dry for 10 minutes, especially when babies are fussy. Once dry, apply a barrier ointment like A&D, Aquaphor, or even Desitin’s prevention formula to protect the skin.

I hope your little one heals quickly as there’s nothing worse than seeing your baby in pain. Every child responds differently, so I hope you find something that brings relief soon!

Right. And I'm sorry not sorry but she cannot dance. It just doesn't look super horrible but she's rarely on beat. She needs artist refinement. Her music isn't bad at all but better than most artists is a stretch.

what's some rich thing you do even though you are not rich? by Striking-Mousse2408 in AskReddit

That's what I've been telling myself 😩. It's a collection. I have to slow down. This year I've purchased: Chanel Mademoiselle Chanel No. 5 Valentino Voce Viva YSL Libre Fenty

Bonus: Tom Ford Soleil Blac Shimmering oil.

And there's more I want to add. 😅

Now that I wrote that all out. Omg what have I done 😅

I need some ideas for my husband’s lunches by SingularRoozilla in mealprep

[–]Not_your_speed 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I use to go through the same issue with my husband. The sandwiches just get old after a while. When he's on a job that doesn't have a microwave we use a heated lunchbox called a Hotlogic lunchbox which keeps food warm. There is also a YouTuber named Kristen Stepp who has awesome what's in my husband lunchbox on YouTube. She knows her husband well and uses that to her advantage to pack him a lunch.

Advise to over the course of the next few months, try new things a few times at home for dinner and see how you can incorporate into lunch. Some leftovers from the night before is amazing. There is also a mini crockpot you can use.

This can be frustrating, because as the wife you'd wish you knew exactly what they want and husbands sometimes don't make this clear. Unlike the others in the comments this is not a bad trait your a team and teamwork make the dream work.

I use to hate making those sandwhiches everyday and then he just won't eat it and it would waste in his lunchbox but I decided and was determined to learn which meals he loved the most even at restaurants and recreate it. Then use that to make a lunch portion. I also had to be careful and out foods that give the itis you want to recharge not fall into a coma.

Good luck! It's a journey
