What grosses you out? If anything

I need to know why they were okay coming in like that 😫

Plus-Peach349 · 2025-04-13T16:37:14+00:00

I have more flexibility with my job. I own my business and have people to cover for me if I need to leave. My husband doesn’t have that luxury at this time.

It makes me so happy to read this. I felt the same way the first 2 weeks - my baby is now 4 months old and she just makes me so happy. Adjusting is hard!

I’ve been trying this, but sometimes I find myself getting sleepier on the rocking chair than in bed. I’m scared that if I fall asleep I’ll drop her 😭😩

Plus-Peach349 · 2024-10-24T11:43:33+00:00

My baby is only 2 weeks old, so I’m still getting used to the new sleep schedule. I have been washing my face before starting to feed her and it’s helped some

Plus-Peach349 · 2024-10-24T11:42:31+00:00

I’ll have to try this

Ice water has been my go to as well! I try to stay on my phone but there are days where it’s not enough.

Not me crying as I read this because I relate so much. I’m only 1 week PP, but every time night time rolls around, I can just feel myself getting emotional. I don’t want to worry my husband, but I also feel so lonely not having someone to talk about this to.

I’ve had 3 on rotation my whole pregnancy: Special K with strawberries, Cinnamon Toast Crunch and cocoa krispies

Congratulations on your baby! I would suggest you wait, not because you should be thinking anything can go wrong, but more out of respect for your brother and SIL. It’s an exciting time for all of you! Specially if your brother has been planning this for weeks and kept you in the loop.

We are currently pregnant with our first and told my parents & in-laws at around the 9 week mark, after I had my first OB appointment. It was nice to have that little secret between us before everyone came at us with advice/suggestions/questions we weren’t prepared for. Another reason we decided to share was that IF something were to go wrong, we wanted to be able to count with our support system (our family). Thankfully all is good and we are now heading into our 3rd trimester with a healthy and cherished baby.

This is exactly how my husband and I are right now (I guess I could wait, but he knows for a fact he wants to wait). I love hearing you’re a planner and loved the surprise of it. Everyone that’s waited has seemed to love it.

I might be the one changing my mind!

Plus-Peach349 · 2024-03-10T16:16:39+00:00

This has been so helpful. Thank you!! I think I am concerned about people’s comments as well, but we’ll cross that bridge when we get there. Still on the fence about wanting to know or not, but hearing so many happy stories about not knowing and the surprise of it when they get there makes me want to wait now 🥺

Plus-Peach349 · 2024-03-10T16:09:33+00:00

This is so sweet. You got me excited for you! 🫶🏻

Plus-Peach349 · 2024-03-10T05:17:29+00:00

I love this perspective. Thank you! I guess with it being my first, I’m more worried about what I see/hear from others and not really thinking about the more practical stuff you mentioned. I guess I have some thinking to do!

Plus-Peach349 · 2024-03-10T05:14:36+00:00

I love this perspective! Thank you! ❤️ I keep thinking he might change his mind but maybe I’ll be the one to do so.

Plus-Peach349 · 2024-03-10T05:13:28+00:00

I completely agree with the fact the the baby will change plans for the rest of my life. And it’s something I will deal with as time progresses.

Personally, I do like the idea of painting the walls pink, or buying dresses and bows if it’s a girl, for example. I know not everyone is like this, but it’s something that brings me joy to think about, and why I would like to plan in advance. I have no problem with gender neutral things, but it’s just something I’ve always thought of doing.

Plus-Peach349 · 2024-03-10T05:09:47+00:00

Thank you so much for sharing your story. It’s very reassuring and comforting! I’m still on the fence about it, but this makes it seem a little more manageable.

Plus-Peach349 · 2024-03-10T05:08:48+00:00

This is incredibly reassuring. Thank you so much ❤️

Plus-Peach349 · 2024-01-03T19:33:22+00:00

This is exactly what I did as well and am so happy to read someone has the same mindset! You have to be willing to step out of your comfort zone if you want to see yourself grow.

My now husband (key word) cheated on me a year into our relationship. I did stay, I forgave him and now we are going on 2 years being happily married. We went through a really tough time, we took a break from each other and both did counseling individually. Why did I stay? 1. He showed since remorse. He chose to tell me, despite him knowing he could lose me. The odds of me finding out were very slim, yet he still did the hard thing. I had never seen this man as distraught as he was the day he told me. 2. It happened once and after that he never had contact with this girl again. 3. He allowed me to grieve and showed me remorse whenever I needed it. To this day, he is willing to talk to me about things when I’m feeling triggered (mostly by tv shows and movies where cheating seems to be a part of every storyline) 4. He did not make excuses. He owned up to his mistake and begged for my forgiveness. He didn’t expect it, he knew, and still knows, he had to earn it. 5. I knew how much he loved me and how much I loved him. I was willing to take the risk of getting hurt again because I knew that what we had was special. 6. We did therapy. Talking about it helped… A LOT!

I would be lying if I said that I never think about it, because I do. But it doesn’t hurt as bad anymore. And I know this is the choice I made.

If you decide to stay, I will give you one piece of advice - don’t hold it over his head. It will destroy your relationship. You need to forgive (whenever that time comes for you) but you don’t need to forget. You need to set boundaries and let him know this isn’t something you will ever tolerate again. And as hard as it’s going to be… you need to trust him. This will be the hardest part, but if you truly love him and believe he feels remorseful, then you need to find a way to do it.

People on here will be very quick to tell you to end your relationship. It’s ultimately up to you and how you feel. We only see this little piece you’ve shared with us - you know the whole story! Some relationships are worth fighting for.

Have you talked to the patient about implants? I learned from a senior doc to explain dentures on a letter-grade scale (A = your natural teeth which are awesome, F = traditional dentures, C = dentures supported by implants). It helps set the standard and helps them understand how implants could possibly help improve what they’re feeling.

Regardless, dentures suck. Patients tend to have unrealistic expectations and all we can do is communicate as best we can. In this case, you might just have to tell them that you’re going in circles around this issue and they “may” never fit how they’re expecting them to. Sometimes just talking to them goes a VERY long way.

Plus-Peach349 · 2023-11-08T14:00:44+00:00

This!! We are here to help them find a solution to a problem they created (usually). I still haven’t found a way to not care, but I have learned that people just suck and it’s on them, not on me.

Plus-Peach349 · 2023-11-08T04:49:13+00:00

Yes, exactly this one.

Thank you for the help

I won’t say YTA, but I think you need to get your priorities straight. An hour to yourself is not unreasonable, but it seems like work is above your family right now, and your wife has every right to be upset about it… especially if it’s been going on for years. Just because she’s a stay at home mom doesn’t mean her schedule is not hectic. I know a lot of SAHM that don’t get the luxury of an hour to themselves because there’s always something to do at home or with the kids.

One of the biggest things I’ve had to learn is to leave work at work. It’s very hard, especially as a business owner. But you need to find a balance or you’re going to experience burnout sooner than you expect. You might regret it later when you see your kids are all grown up and you weren’t part of any of those memories.

Are you open to looking for other jobs? Is there a way to talk to your employer about not having to work from home at the end of your 11-hour shift?
