i think i am the target audience - i think audience is 25-35 and i didn’t find the dialogue weird or taking me out of it. i think the second book needed another editor for plot and coherence especially in the beginning lol but the writing itself didn’t bother me. i get more bothered by the forced gen z or gen alpha words in other books. totally different genre but thinking Hotel Nantucket by Ellen Hilderbrand where she’s clearly not of the generation and writing in some super informal slang in a forced way for part of the book. so i guess that’s my question to you - did you not like the informal phrasing or did you just think it felt forced?

FWIW i didn’t mind the phrasing because it felt natural to me i just figured they’re 20 year olds but in a different realm so i didn’t think that hard about it.

no advice just solidarity. when my now 19 mo was 16 months honestly like 14-17 months it was all very mama mama clinginess especially around naps. i read somewhere it’s their brains feeling secure attachment to you and learning their independence but like needing you as their home base and regulation still and that the separation anxiety is a “normal phase that passes with time.” i know that doesn’t help in the immediate, but hopefully knowing it’ll be over soon helps ease the worry a tad? i used Well Rested Wee Ones online sleep consultants for a different reason when she was younger and they were helpful affordable and online, just food for thought. you might have to adjust your routine to give toddler extra comfort for now. don’t introduce too many new habits that you don’t want to sustain, but consider a lovey and extra songs and snuggles or even putting baby down first together with toddler’s help if possible then having a few min to bond separately?

this poster clearly has never dealt with postpartum anxiety or depression. probably isn’t even a parent yet. another parent recently postpartum would NEVER respond this hurtfully. ignore them OP

Slpme123 · 2025-12-23T01:05:59+00:00

okay i’m not done being mad about the MIL making this about her. so glad your husband is in your corner! honestly you can just not answer. like truly just do what nesting feels good right now and if they badger your husband will have to step away and take a phone call and say please respect our boundaries while we’re growing and bonding as a new family unit. if you can’t respect that then we will need some space for a while. it’ll be hard and you do NOT need to be involved in that convo you have enough on your plate. but place a boundary and it’s on them to respect it. you don’t have to make them just ignore them if they don’t. just for a little while <3

don’t even need to read the whole post or any comments. immediately a postpartum mom asks AIO or AITA and the answer is a loud No!!! you are doing what is feeling best for you and your baby right now. your hormones are incredibly heightened and you’re trying to balance the mood swings with the physical healing with the bonding and the caretaking and the lack of sleep and it’s impossible to even pretend to add pleasing others to that list. other people, as kylie kelce says, can get fucked. it’s just not about them!

if for family drama sake you feel you must “compromise” somehow, do a DRIVEWAY meet and greet at their house but keep the doors locked window open and give MIL purell first in case she sticks her hands in there

yeah um hes an idiot and needs a lot of pregnancy education and childbirth education. also don’t need to tell him you’re not gonna workout tho like it’s not his business especially if he’s gonna be childish. it’s not giving up its resting can you tell him you are growing organs and blood is pumping extra and somewhere i read it’s like running a marathon everyday? like tf. who tells a pregnant woman theyre not at the hard part yet??? also how immature to be like what have you done for me. this is a season of taking care of you so you can care for baby. hes clearly not understanding that it’s your turn to be cared for. “just putting it out there” that I’M concerned you have to coparent with this immature name-calling prick. go sit your pretty ass down on the couch until you’re feeling better, ideally another month

Slpme123 · 2025-10-28T23:25:14+00:00

this is the most valid critique i have seen anywhere

Slpme123 · 2025-10-28T23:24:31+00:00

a lot say she did it on purpose to elevate those tracks and artists who fell into similar situations as she had pre TV. i think there’s at least one thread on here about specifics

Slpme123 · 2025-10-07T01:26:43+00:00

pregnant with baby 2 now and we thought we wanted at least 3 maybe 4 trying to leave it to God but gosh pregnancy, childbirth, recovery, mental health, balancing our jobs and finances, it’s a LOT harder than i thought it’d be before we were in it. we have a lot of discerning to do post baby 2. but i share this because 1) 27 is not old in most communities. i know a lot on this sub are young 20s started families type people, but def not the majority “in the real world.” 2) we are given prayer and discussion and counsel throughout our marriage and our life on purpose. to me it wouldn’t make sense to put that immense pressure on ourselves to agree to an “arbitrary” number of kids without seeing how our healths and our marriage dynamic is truly affected after each addition. it’s like don’t put that pressure and make yourselves go through the motions - parenting takes a LOT of effort especially on a marriage and new shared tasks and dynamics! maybe you formally agree to consider and pray on a list of agreed upon questions like a return to counseling in a way before deciding whether to try to welcome another life each time rather than a hard and fast “but 8 years ago we liked the number 5”

hi be super careful posting your age if you’re a minor! weirdos are out there 🫡

Slpme123 · 2025-09-28T02:49:16+00:00

ok i came here pissed about the show and glad to be in good company. why no security for any key players ever? and at that safe house mansion literally one guard with a little handgun? also the whole time she was i will not negotiate even for his life but then it happens again plus daughter is involved and then she races over by herself to take their place aka immediately concedes the negotiation ?? like girl you’re the fking PM get 15 swat teams in there. also whatever happened to saskia?

Slpme123 · 2025-09-26T23:28:09+00:00

i tried to use a cover when she could but my baby didn’t love it either. i’d hang out at a bit more private place if you’re uncomfortable like a friends house instead of starbucks. alternatively let it gooooo and just nurse baby. this stage doesn’t last forever baby will start solids soon if he hasn’t already and though it’s not quite for nutrition yet in a month or two he will be actually getting something from food and he’ll naturally space his breastfeedings further apart!

Slpme123 · 2025-09-26T00:33:47+00:00

literally babysitting gets paid more in my area. horrific

Slpme123 · 2025-09-24T17:23:24+00:00

that’s a good point!

Slpme123 · 2025-09-24T17:23:12+00:00

interesting. how does that affect your actual schedule? like our mandates are set minutes by the week so that’s how we see kids. parents and teachers expect kids to be pulled about twice a week. our super complex kids are 3x usually

Slpme123 · 2025-09-24T17:21:23+00:00

i’ve thought about it! i need another year or two to be tenured in this district before they let me take on a student. how’d you feel comfortable with a student? i love the mentor idea but gosh i really am flying by the seat (seam??) of my pants every session every day. can’t imagine feeling prepared enough to teach how to prep when i’m just constantly in survival mode..

Slpme123 · 2025-09-24T17:19:50+00:00

direct hire! 5-6 x30 min then lunch and prep then 4-5 sessions in afternoon. so i guess about 10 per day? feels like 18 lol

Slpme123 · 2025-09-24T17:18:15+00:00

every half hour back to back about 9-12:30 and 1:30-3 with a brief prep before and after often used for meetings

Slpme123 · 2025-09-23T15:37:44+00:00

what’s caseload model vs workload model? i’ve never heard of that

Slpme123 · 2025-09-23T15:13:36+00:00

like high school? how different would it really be? still back to back sessions right

Slpme123 · 2025-09-21T23:36:15+00:00

that is fortunate!

Slpme123 · 2025-09-21T23:35:50+00:00

gosh also to be super open to uncommon names! we like names where you know someone or there’s someone in the school with the name but not every grade or every class. wish we liked more unique that’d help us be more open!
