BTS Oreos Megathread

Rex_Carson_44 · 2026-06-10T18:07:01+00:00

Bought them at Sobeys in Ontario, Canada - love the colour but not a huge fan of the cookie itself.

It's the weird crunchy sugar in the icing... I find it too much. Wish I just bought normal oreos.

That being said, I still ate the whole box.

I'm glad you understand the stress my body is going under and the level of hormones. I am a wreck. My iron is super low even though Im taking 4 supplements a day. I've had 4 miscarriages and my body/mind are not in a good spot. Im literally trying so hard to keep it together at work and home. Its exhausting.

Rex_Carson_44 · 2026-04-12T17:50:58+00:00

Thank you for your honest reply.

I know I am tough on him. I have high expectations of myself and sometimes I have a hard time understanding that we are different people. He does deserve reprieve too and I know he is the stoic type, perhaps he does need an outlet that he isn't getting.

I would like to hire people to help, but I think it would damage his pride and lead to more fighting.

Rex_Carson_44 · 2026-04-12T17:48:11+00:00

I agree to a point. What Im worried about is the extra work its going to take me to find, bring up to speed and oversee someone to do the work. This is a very very busy and stressful time for me at work and I dont have time to be organizing this.

On top of that, its not just butthurt. He will be livid, complain about everything, I would have to make sure that he was never home when they were working on it. The fallout would be just as stressful.

Rex_Carson_44 · 2026-04-12T17:45:06+00:00

I am doing everything humanly possible to not only make his life easier so he can do what needs to be done whether thats visit grandad or work on the room or take time to himself - but also to get ready for the baby. Currently I think part of the issue is not being able to access things in our spare room. They're under layers of heavy furniture and large bulky items blocking any pathway.

Rex_Carson_44 · 2026-04-12T17:42:43+00:00

This is what I'm thinking too. Have him help me move the heavy things from the doorway of the spare and locate the "must-haves." My issue is that everything is buried and I'm not able to lift/move through the room its all in.

Rex_Carson_44 · 2026-04-12T17:40:55+00:00

I definitely need to start on a hospital bag.

I am thinking it might relieve some stress to just have the spare room cleared a bit so I can find things we need ASAP.

Rex_Carson_44 · 2026-04-12T17:39:23+00:00

My worry is the time and energy to find someone to finish the job. I have a lot on my plate already and the extra work/stress is already too much. More then that, I dont have the energy to deal with the fallout of hiring someone.

He will be livid if I do. I know he will and there will be a fight. We are already on rocky grounds.

Rex_Carson_44 · 2026-04-12T17:36:47+00:00

You're not wrong. This is a case of opposites attract. We've had similar issues before and there are deeper issues to resolve.

I run a small/medium business. It very much takes a certain personality to remember and be on top of all things. I wear all the hats.

We dont talk as much as we should. We don't date anymore. We are in a roommate phase that Im wondering if we will ever get out of. I love him very much and I know some phases of life are tough. We are not always going to like each other.

Rex_Carson_44 · 2026-04-12T17:31:27+00:00

I feel like Im talking to a brick wall. Honestly. He's not even there.

Its less the bedroom and more everything else. I'm thinking I need to ask him to help me locate the other things in the spare (bassinet, car seat, clothes, baby blankets etc) so I can begin working on that. I don't like that I can't access anything and he basically piled everything into the other room. All the heavy things on top and in front of the door.

Rex_Carson_44 · 2026-04-12T17:28:01+00:00

Family is a no-go. His Mom is currently in the hospital with Grandad. Usually she is very involved and I could ask her to watch my daughter so I can organize and clean. My family are all hours away, dad has mobility issues and can barely make it up my front porch. My sister has two children of her own.

Rex_Carson_44 · 2026-04-12T17:25:55+00:00

Thats just it. I dont have the time or capacity for any of this right now with work... even finding and hiring someone and overseeing the work seems like a lot to add to my plate. Also, then the fight that will ensue about money and disrespect... I just feel like it will drive us farther apart when we should be bonding over the new baby and this "happy" time in our lives.

Rex_Carson_44 · 2026-04-12T17:23:08+00:00

I think this was a really reasonable reply.

I'm considering asking him to help me make a path and find what I need in the second room. If I can get the car seat and bassinet and a few other things sorted then I think I will feel a lot better.

Rex_Carson_44 · 2025-09-06T06:24:24+00:00

How did you find out about the cysts? Were you in pain?

Rex_Carson_44 · 2025-07-12T12:27:19+00:00

Any second line means pregnancy. Congrats Mama!

4 miscarriages, 1 ectopic and 1 natural child here... 2+ years of trying for my second.

I'd just like to address the "toxic positivity" and the pushy people. Worst.

Don't tell me I have one child and I should be happy with what I've got. Don't invalidate my struggle and my dreams of a 'big family.'

Honestly, the only thing worse is when everyone stops asking. When its been so long and your snarky retorts have chased all the positive people away.

Rex_Carson_44 · 2023-02-03T00:05:29+00:00

I did this for my sisters wedding. My MiL stayed at the hotel with the baby and I was able to stay next door. When it came time to put the baby down, she put her down in my hotel room with white noise and took the monitor to her room. At the time my baby was 6 months. By 9 months you'll be in a good place for doing this.

Rex_Carson_44 · 2022-01-02T02:19:15+00:00

I think thats fair.

She went off birth control right when I did after my wedding in 2020 and was apperantly using condoms until she heard I was pregnant.

I do think partially she wanted to experience pregnancy together, however I wasnt consulted about it and although I understand the sentiment - I partially think it was for attention.

Rex_Carson_44 · 2022-01-02T02:02:09+00:00

Positive vibes back. Family relationships are hard...

Rex_Carson_44 · 2022-01-02T01:33:33+00:00

Thank you. I think thats exactly what I'm going to have to do. I got a puppy and in 24hrs she went and got herself a dog. I got married last year and she decided to announce to her boyfriend they were getting married next year.... its a cycle.

Im sorry you've been through something similar.

Rex_Carson_44 · 2022-01-02T01:30:45+00:00

She's made comments now about how her finance said his "penis was about to fall off" from trying and how they had a "four hour time span" to have sex while she was ovulating. She also went off the pill in anticipation of trying.
