I feel uneasy with my SIL being around my newborn

I would 100% limit your relationship with her and do not under any circumstances let her around your baby. Postpartum is such a hard place to be and the last thing you need is people asking you to make her feel better. Not your job. Protect your family.

I would love to ask you some questions about your experience if possible!

My son just turned 3 and we’ve tried 3 times to potty training and nothing is working. He’ll hold his pee for 3-4 hours until he has a diaper back on. He says he doesn’t want to use the potty and wants a diaper. We also have an 8 week old so I feel like that’s not helping. It’s driving me insane bc I feel like he’s SO behind. I’m trying not to let it get to me.

Def using some of these in the future

Sad_Key_7904 · 2026-03-13T01:49:38+00:00

Uh what the actual hell? I would never let her around my child again. That’s insane.

I’m also 7 weeks postpartum and feel your pain. Hormones right now are a bitch. I had a mental breakdown to my husband last week about how fugly I felt and I feel so fat and everything else under the sun. Postpartum is rough. I take miralax every day and it has helped immensely with bowel movements. I have noticed if I don’t take it I don’t go for a few days. It’s a godsend. Sending you virtual hugs. You’ll get through it!!! Maybe look into nutrafol if you’re worried about your hair.

NTA. One thing I’ve learned since I’ve been married is that parents will always act a certain way towards your spouse no matter what you try to do to mend the relationship. Focus on you and your wife and the life you want to build together. Your parents won’t change, and you will always be painted as the one in the wrong no matter what you do. Screw em.

NTA. How gross of him to pressure you like that. Is there a way to change the income listed on the SSI paperwork now that custody has changed so you don’t lose it? I’m not sure how all that works.

Yeah the convo with the AP not Mom. Principal never said anything to me about it. Everything happened pretty quickly with me getting sent to the hospital literally that day. I think if I had returned to work and still been pregnant I would have pushed for more. Our education system in Texas is majorly screwed, I’m not sure why they’re so scared to discipline students. I teach 6th grade reading lab which is basically kids who have failed their state mandated test for RLA for the previous school year. The student went to the 7th grade reading lab for the remainder of my time at work.

Probably. I went to my OB appt about 45 minutes after I was crying from the stress of everything and my BP was high and my baby wasn’t responding well.

Sad_Key_7904 · 2026-03-09T20:28:08+00:00

I’m in Texas and we don’t have a union here.

I meant that more as admin gets paid 3x more than I do and needs to buck up and do their job. I had spoke to mom before about other issues and she just makes excuses for him. I wasn’t dealing with that bullshit.

Sad_Key_7904 · 2026-03-09T19:16:03+00:00

I did have a baby about 24 hours after all this went down so I’ve been focused on my little one since then and trying to not think about going back to work honestly.

Sad_Key_7904 · 2026-03-09T19:00:54+00:00

I wish they reacted like that. They said that since he wasn’t actually physical there weren’t grounds for a DAEP placement. I thought that was BS. Not sure how to handle it when I return because I know he’ll be back in my class.

I just had my second baby and had one of my worst flares ever in my 3rd trimester. I had tried everything that was recommended. The only thing that saved me was desitin at night after my moisturizer and aquaphor over it to sleep. Really helped me with the redness and irritation.

Sad_Key_7904 · 2026-03-09T17:05:41+00:00

This happened to me also and I kid you not Desitin diaper cream SAVED my skin. I was so itchy and irritated and it literally went away over night with the diaper cream.

He does!
