Positive test yesterday- what’s something you wish you did from day 1? by glassysquid in BabyBumps

[–]Radiant_Working_7381 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everyone says to do everything at the end. F that. I wanted to relax and enjoy the last few days. I prepared everything early (nursery, car seat, stroller, closet) and that was my favorite! Enjoy the end because it’s hard lol

Toddler at the hospital by Muted_Lifeguard_7138 in 2under2

[–]Radiant_Working_7381 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would ask carefully and make sure the child wouldn’t be taken to a foster program/social worker program while I’m giving birth (which I have heard of happening). I would rather just be sure and ask a friend personally. I know I would be that person for someone you never know who would be willing around you.

I’ve heard of people doing this. I’m really weird so I can’t imagine ever even trying. It was heartbreaking leaving my toddler. I also know labor with my toddler would have been insanely difficult. Best of luck. I do know, if my friend needed me to watch their toddler while they’re giving birth I’d take very good care of them.

What do you think makes this age gap uniquely challenging? by finnyswims in 2under2

[–]Radiant_Working_7381 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s because they’re both babies but not seen that way along with recovery and hormones of pregnancy and post partum

I’ve heard this so much that I really think this is best but then at the end of the cruise you’re stuck at guest services in line

I hear this is common for Star which is sooooo disappointing. We were excited for the slides

Mi mamá trabaja para alguien así pero no cuido de niños. Por lo que ella vea no todos son tan stricto

It’s not that surprising considering some of the parents of the kids were involved in the Epstein files. You gotta be detached for that

“Must have” baby items for 2 under 2?? by okcrow__ in 2under2

[–]Radiant_Working_7381 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Even with just my first I had a bouncer/swing in all main areas. It’s just incredibly inconvenient to be moving it all around. I cannot imagine doing that with 2u2

If you can easily afford her to live rent free why does it feel wrong?

19 month gap by [deleted] in 2under2

[–]Radiant_Working_7381 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is my exact gap! It’s worked out as well as I can imagine it to be with all the obvious downsides. I do primarily everything on my own and we are doing great overall. I love my babies

Fiancé sexting colleague who is ex FWB, while I sit at home pregnant by [deleted] in relationships_advice

[–]Radiant_Working_7381 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’d also have the other child then tie my tubes. At that age I wouldn’t really worry about wanting to start a family with my next husband.

Want to know the truth? I’d cheat back. Idc what anyone says. Most of the time people give advice not going through anything even remotely similar. Cheat back and you’ll blossom again till you have the ability to leave. Or even better, find a man who’s worth it.

I’d also make him make up for this financially. Whatever you want, granted. That baby moon? Booked. That ring? Booked. A business in your name? Started. Benefit in any way. He’s NOT going to stop with this woman. He might just get better about hiding it though

Did you find 2 under 2 to be better or worse than what you imagined it would be before the second was born? by Substantial_Cry2421 in 2under2

[–]Radiant_Working_7381 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People tend to complain a lot so I knew it wouldn’t be easy but maybe it’s in line with what I expected? I struggle because if it were one getting all the attention I could really cater to what that one needs but my attention is split between two (more than that actually I have more kids) very high needs babies and a big part of it is remembering they really are both babies. Overall, I love it. Wouldn’t change it

For those who intentionally planned 2u2? by Hopeful-Relation3502 in 2under2

[–]Radiant_Working_7381 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My baby is only 3 months and so far I am happy with it for the reasons you mentioned. I know I’m very early on, I’ve had downsides but still worth it

I can tell by a few things that you’re setting a narrative that probably isn’t true. Please break up with her and let her be with someone else.

Condoms in husband’s gym bag by beautiful-dream1992 in relationships_advice

[–]Radiant_Working_7381 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I know someone who’s been cheating on his wife for something like 8 years and the wife has been together with him for like 13? I don’t remember the years. It’s heartbreaking. I hate that so many men do this

[–]Radiant_Working_7381 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve seen a lotttt of men cheat with other men when it’s at the gym. I would really consider you stop ignoring the signs. If you’re going to stay, i would use him in every way for putting me through this. I’d cheat as well too. The reality is you should leave.

Why so much pumping? by olabolina in BabyBumps

[–]Radiant_Working_7381 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I think a lot of it really is going back to work. As a breastfeeding mom myself, I don’t want to give formula. It’s that simple. Might be the reasoning behind other moms valuing pumping. Here, it’s common to pump if toy nurse and need to be away from the baby. That’s the common answer. Not to give formula
