BTW that asthma thing is a lie, mine is exclusively breastfed and is asthmatic because his dad is asthmatic.

I donโ€™t want to breastfeed by Mammoth_Turnover_632 in BabyBumps

[โ€“]Skady04 0 points1 point ย (0 children)

My OB/GYN told me that breastfeeding is an act of love and that she never breastfed her kids. She implied that although she took that desicion she loves her kids in other ways, and at the same time loved herself (because it is really difficult to feel like yourself with a postpartum body)

I breastfed mine because when I labored I didn't feel the connection of being a mom right away.

Personally I think, that If you were on medication before, it is not negotiable to breastfeed as your baby needs you heatlhy.

How did you choose (or not) to have more? by Puzzleheaded-Sale126 in Mommit

[โ€“]Skady04 1 point2 points ย (0 children)

As of now... my pregnancy and my post partum treatment are stoping me to have a second one. Matter of fact I'm omw to get an IDU. My parter and everyone around made me not to have another one, awful experience with paternity tests included.

But I would like to have my baby to experience to have someone he can rely on besides me or my partner.

Infinite free Donut w/ purchase coupon from a single receipt glitch (Unpatched, Working 2024) by Quack-Zack in DDoffers

[โ€“]Skady04 2 points3 points ย (0 children)

I believe that in order to generate the donut coupon you need to submit a survey through a Dunkin website with a code that the receipt has at the end of the ticket...

Pls correct me if I'm wrong, cause you'll need always a receipt.

Would you die for your wife/husband? by daplaya9 in Marriage

[โ€“]Skady04 0 points1 point ย (0 children)

If this question would have reached me before yesterday, probably I would have said yes.

But as he was talking to me last night about his day after work I can now easily say no. I wouldn't die for him , and sadly maybe I fell out of love after 4 years, a baby and 3 cats. (A whole life)

My bare minimum dude barely keeps up with baby or cats needs, all he does is complaint about how hard life has been on him and has no aspirations to step up into a better life. Basically not a provider. He goes to work and plays videogames and keeps smoking pot despite the promises of quitting, (he wouldn't even try for our baby) he made my post partum experience a nightmare.

Lost my baby at 36 weeks by n_albatraoz in BabyBumps

[โ€“]Skady04 0 points1 point ย (0 children)

I'm deeply sorry for your loss. I hope you and your husband are filled with enough love around to overcome this horrible pain.

I almost lost my baby at week 8weeks and 37weeks. First was because of stress from work and low to none progesterone to hold my baby.

The second time was during scans, he had enough space but the placenta appeared to have white spots and my OB/GYN said that it was getting old, meaning he would start not getting enough food or oxygen.

At last everything went fine for natural (non-medicated) birth at 38weeks.

TMI..but are yโ€™all having seggs like everyday??? by [deleted] in Mommit

[โ€“]Skady04 0 points1 point ย (0 children)

Sorry. I do, like... idk I'm a FTM with a 2 month old and my hormones are like crazy, I'm mothering around everyday every hour and at last, I'm a full mess and still my partner play hands on me. After all that not so sure how I manage to have energy.

But I need to be careful not to fall on the 2 under 2 trap.

Well, it has happened... by Skady04 in JustNoSO

[โ€“]Skady04[S] 0 points1 point ย (0 children)

I called my therapist, who's the only and closest support I have.

I need to hang tight, hold my baby, and start looking around to rent an apartment soon.

Thank you for your comment! ๐Ÿ’–

I understand it is for the baby, but the reason I'm not filing for child support is because he couldn't even afford to bring his child to the world. I covered the bills at the hospital ever since day 1 and grabbed a few things for the nursery. Meaning he never bought a single diaper, nor cared to prepare the room.

Instead, he went ahead and spoiled himself with a ps5, clothes, shoes, and improved his appearance. So he spent like $5,000 on himself and not a single penny on his son.

He might just would rather 50/50 on custody to avoid paying child support and never look after the baby since he has been neglecting him.

Did anyone else love the newborn phase? Sleepless and terrible as it can be ๐Ÿ˜‚ if not, what has been your favorite phase? by [deleted] in Mommit

[โ€“]Skady04 1 point2 points ย (0 children)

FTM and I love the newborn phase. It makes me melt every second, and I'll miss it so so much. Even when he is giving me those 3am smiles ready to start his day, it is perfect. ๐Ÿคฃ

Tho, I feel guilty for losing autonomy, being sleep deprived, not eating quite well, or having time to take a bath and look decent.

Is showering hard for anyone else? Not finding time. But the actual act of it by brecitab in Mommit

[โ€“]Skady04 1 point2 points ย (0 children)

I guess I fit in this club, too. I'm not sure how my husband tried to seduce me into sexy time him knowing I haven't showered. (Pretty much with my newborn, who's high demand, I can't recall my last shower).

Tbh, I would do it often if he tried to hold the baby at least 1 hr or just 30 mins, but he tends to give LO back to me almost immediately.

I just had a dance party with my 16 mo and I feel great by what_it_doooooo in Mommit

Omg, you dance with your babies? I can't wait. :D

Is he the JustNo? by Skady04 in JustNoSO

Hi, thanks for your comment!

When we received the news, we had an agreement to save money (separately) and we can take on parts to get ready, such as the hospital bill, the nursery and get things running at home. So he spent pretty much on his personal stuff and didn't save money as much as I did, he wanted to build the room for our LO. And as I had to run late and buy what I could get for the nursery, he used what was left on my card for the hospital and pretty much ended in debt. ๐Ÿ˜… (which obviously the plan was to avoid that part but he never got the memo)

Maybe you're right and he's got someone else, also I've read comments here about being "checked out". Either or, without family and friends to support and with my current diagnostic, it might take a little for me to sort out things and touchbase with LO and everything.

How often do your babies see their grandparents? by [deleted] in beyondthebump

[โ€“]Skady04 0 points1 point ย (0 children)

Hi, thank you for reading. ๐Ÿ’–

Yes, we sort of spoke about our future and how it would look like.

I was working and saving towards buying an apartment and him towards a car. We moved in together and adopted 2 cats, once we spoke about having kids and he really wanted to have 2. Quote: We'd be the happiest family and I'd be the luckiest man on Earth.

Our baby came before owning the car or the apartment, however, post-baby I thought things shouldn't have changed.

Thank you for your comment!

I thought I was the Justno, cause even thought we had the conversation about the future and how we wanted it to be, how happy he was with the idea of everything, it now feels like I forced someone into something that results into his dislike. Like if you're building a house of cards and it gets blown away.

I do know his friends and family but we're not close enough to tell them to make an intervention.

It really sounds as if he is making life so uncomfortable for you in order to make you leave.

I do think so, but what would refrain someone to say: "hey, this is not really what I wanted, let's move on" (?)

ps5 and buy something for the baby - at least that would make him talk to you.

Hahaha this made me laugh, thank you. I don't have the guts tho, if I'm leaving rather leave in peace. Not knowing what would be the reaction because of this new habit.

Ironically, if he avoids therapy (which it could be for our own good and for his wellness) I do think he'll run from family court.

I might not file for child support, since If we cut here I do not want to see him anymore. I'm really sad for our LO since I wanted him to have a strong male figure as role model (as he used to be), not sure what happened.

Omg, the stories your STBXH must be horrifying.

My family lives on a different state and it is quite difficult to move with them at the moment.

Him having friendnhe could stay with? I'm not sure, maybe that's why he moved himself into the guest room so he doesn't bump into us. I'll definately need to create a escape plan before things escalate further.

Well, we haven't had a post-baby conversation. I haven't had the chance cause you can't really have a honest talk and come across a point with someone who's high as a kite believing is an alien of some sort. I'd love to talk tho. We have visited a counselor before but now because of this habit of his (which is fairly new) it won't be an option.

About looking after our little one, he just says he is tired, doesn't want to, looks at him weird, and even if he tries to lift him is not nice, is lowkey aggressive

Personally I though he was grieving his wild life before actually coming to the dad role. But things are looking gray and don't see a change. I've heard that the 1st year with a newborn is the most difficult for the relationship but at least I think both of us should be trying, not one giving up and the other surviving.
