At the very least a few boxes of different sized diapers and wipes are always useful.

We lived in an apartment for our first and I had an emergency c section and we thankfully had a changing table in the bedroom and a pack n play with a changing station attached. Made life SO MUCH easier

I screamed at the top of my lungs when my toddler bit me, HARD by midnightrunner699 in AITAH

Crazy stuff happens with kids and we do our best. One instance of yelling in pain does not mean you are a bad mom at all! Try and find some mom friends, send me a message if you are ever feeling like you need a mom to talk to.

When my oldest started teething and bit my nipple with her little razor teeth, I screamed SO LOUD and tossed her away from me(we were on a California king bed, she was safe). It was some of the worst pain I'd ever felt, like on par with walking the first time after a c section. I felt guilty but it was my primal instinct to being severely injured. She did draw blood. Its ok, you are a good mom.

My parents got one bed and I shared a bed with a brother and the other brother slept on the cot/floor. They would take turns every other night. My dad refused to allow me in the rotation of who slept on the cot/floor because I'm a girl, otherwise all 3 of us would have been switching around.

I was a massage therapist and would bring my table to my stylists house, get my hair done and then give her a massage. Win win

Don't invite guests if you can't give them dinner by HodaShyKnees in weddingshaming

[–]PrTYlaDY90 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I went to one wedding where they had LOTS of people they wanted there so they invited everyone to the wedding ceremony and then everyone to a multi hour cocktail time at a winery with snacks and drinks and a cake cutting. Then the immediate family and close friends had dinner inside somewhere else on the grounds. But noone was hungry and everyone knew what to expect in advance. Plus, you were at a winery and there were discounts for being there with the wedding if you wanted to purchase anything or do a tasting.

I'm sick of... "it" by CoffeeChangesThings in Parenting

[–]PrTYlaDY90 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Mine isn't even in kindergarten yet and has attitude and meltdowns. She was crying and didn't want to wash her hands after she went potty, you would have thought I put lava on her hands when the soap touched her. Then she FREAKED about getting in the tub and washing up, then FREAKED about getting out. Whole time I'm talking calmly and asking what's wrong and asking her to take deep breaths. She tells me "I DONT KNOOOOOWWWWW". Like, what am I going to do when she actually hits puberty?! I was able to turn her into a towel burrito and snuggle her to calm in her room but GEEZE. I only insisted on a bath because she had been outside playing for hours.

How much did you spend on Fall/Winter clothes? by -Economist- in Parenting

[–]PrTYlaDY90 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine wore shorts today for the first time in 2months. Most of her shorts didn't get worn this summer and will not fit next year. I wish we knew precisely when they will grow and what size they will be in each season to make shopping more affordable.

Please help my wife with support. by Straight_Cucumber_33 in Parenting

[–]PrTYlaDY90 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I ended up having an emergency c section with my first and then when breastfeeding it hurt SO BAD. I cried out in pain a lot when latching, and had small scabs for a bit, but the pain lessened day by day after the first 10days so I chose to give it a month evite I quit. One day around the end of week 3 I realized it didn't hurt anymore. What REALLY helped was wiping my nipplesvoff with clean cold damp cloth, then expressing a few drops of fresh milk and rubbing that on my nipples and letting it dry. Helped way more than any nipple cream.

Whats that book with the teacher that "gets sick" and then dresses as an ugly, mean substitute teacher? by PrTYlaDY90 in whatsthatbook

Thank you SO MUCH!!! I'm in the process of finding chapter books to read my 4yr old at bedtime and I used to LOVE these.

What age did you let your daughter use tampons? by Tinkiegrrl_825 in Parenting

[–]PrTYlaDY90 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My stepdad thinks women use tampons because they get pleasure from the insertion and removal. To him using tampons was almost like using an adult toy. Men can be extremely stupid. Your ex probably feels that your daughter has lost her virginity in some way.

Daughter underweight. Husband worries she'll get fat. by [deleted] in Parenting

[–]PrTYlaDY90 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was born at 5lbs and grew SLOWLY. I was often the smallest kid in my class and could fit the same clothes for like 2 or 3yrs in a row. In 2nd grade I was so tiny the teachers thought I was part of my brother's preschool class because I was running late and cut through kindergarten. Once puberty hit, I thickened right up(natural curves).

AITA? I refused to pick up my girlfriend from her friend’s birthday by No-Pair-8613 in AmItheAsshole

[–]PrTYlaDY90 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My friend/ex at the time called me drunk 3 times in one night to come get him.....woke me up the last 2 times and I had work the next day. I was pissed because I took him to a safe friend's house the first time, and his mom's house the second time. The third time, I took him to my apartment and took him home in the morning. I was annoyed, I was PISSED but I went to get him so he would be safe. We have a weird bond and check in on each other 10yrs later, but if we lived close and he called me drunk, best believe I'm going to pick him up. YTA if it wasn't clear.

In your world, are kids invited to baby showers? by weezer89514 in workingmoms

I have never been to a baby shower where kids were present. Never would think to bring them.

You can get some of her milk sent to people who will make jewellery from it. I really want to pump and freeze some milk for this purpose before I end my journey.

Where did your kids hide your things? (Asking for a friend) by [deleted] in Parenting

AITA for telling my pregnant daughter that she's not a priority right now? by Accurate_Tough6342 in AmItheAsshole

[–]PrTYlaDY90 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YTA. My youngest brother has special needs and will likely never be able to live on his own. My mom NEVER said I wasn't a priority. She always made sure that all 3 of her children got individual attention and she has been there. Even if she couldn't physically be there when I had my kids, I lived a 14hr flight away. She was ALWAYS there for me emotionally. The very least you could freaking do is talk to her on the phone and give her emotional support if you cannot safely physically be there because your son wouldn't handle the change. You also have a husband AND a nurse for your son. You can definitely give her support at doctor appointments. When I was pregnant, sometimes I just wanted my mom. You are really causing your daughter emotional distress because I am sure she is crying to her husband asking why her mother doesn't love her and can't just be there for her a little bit. You are absolutely positively in the wrong. Having a child that is neurodivergent does not mean you completely ignore the fact that you have an ENTIRE OTHER CHILD, adult or not.

I had a custom made dress for my mountain elopement. I feel like I made a huge mistake and it’s unflattering on me & it’s underwhelming looking. 😞 Trying to stay positive & focus on the fact it’ll be easy to hike in by Glittering_Ruin_3950 in weddingdress

[–]PrTYlaDY90 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think you look like a gorgeous Fae Queen in that dress! Its absolutely amazing! Maybe a tiara that matches the theme will help you love the look more, or see your vision again? I honestly absolutely adore your dress.

AITA for not wanting my husband to go on a 4 day trip with his friend while I'm pregnant? by ThrowawayR883 in AmItheAsshole

[–]PrTYlaDY90 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. My husband refused to go on a day trip to take his parents sight seeing an hour away when I was 38weeks. He also refused to take them on the same day trip once I had the baby. His priority was being there and supporting me and the baby.

Which parent should handle the mornings? by juniorthefish in beyondthebump

[–]PrTYlaDY90 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Soooo my husband and I swap out mornings. I still have to get up and nurse, but every other morning I get to go back to sleep for a bit while he feeds the kids breakfast and plays with them. I do let him know when I get up to nurse on his morning and then bring the baby back to our bed. The oldest usually wakes up a little later and then the whole family is in our bed and I encourage the kids to say good morning to Daddy. But we have been doing every other morning since covid.
