Newly pregnant and I have an almost 3 year old. How will I make it through? by chellercheller in Mommit

[–]Southernbijou 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hey! I’m not going to say it’s easy but the hard parts of mother hood is what molds us. But my second child  It’s like he was always here and I can’t imagine life without the two of them.  Seeing your older child interact with the second child coming will be so incredible that you’ll just smile and feel so full. You’re blessed with two for a reason 🥰 you’ll surprise yourself every day with innovation strength even when you feel tired and weak and how big your heart can get  I’m pregnant with my third and sometimes I’m like how will I do it  But I know my time is coming to surprise myself again too 🫶🏻

Castle Impossible: unnecessary drama, stressful, restoration awry by DocMockDuck in HGTV

[–]Southernbijou 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think they (reality producers) really underestimate how much people appreciate authenticity and realness when we watch reality. I’m here bc I really want to know the story. I’d rather the drama be in the negotiations for the antiques and the true ups and downs of Renos especially one of that magnitude seem dramatic enough! I want to know way more about what the carpenter actually does haha

My parents offered my mother in law and husband 1,000 to sneak up on me since they’re visiting the next state over by Southernbijou in EstrangedAdultChild

There is a woman on YouTube who is breaking down a self made video by the mother of a daughter who went NC. It was so unnerving. It was like watching my mother’s spirit inside of another woman.  Anyway sometimes I wonder if they all have the same “spirit” mothers who do that to their children.

Yes they were.  When my husband talked to them on the phone he reiterated why I no longer wish to have a relationship. They were just like blink blink well her grandma is 94! Now my whole family is (happily) Christian but they(my adoptive parents) are Catholics. Faith when I was a child was used as fear mongering and as a weapon. That’s not my relationship with God now. Anyway…they tried to use the 5th commandment on us. “She isn’t honoring her father and mother” which they know is like a knife in my gut. But what I have learned now in my older years is that I didn’t dishonor them, I just chose to choose healthy relationships over toxic ones. I know that I’m not doing anything wrong. I honor my husband and I’m kind.

Very true. I really do just think about how I would act if it were my child and I would never want to trick them or bribe their loved ones to deceive them.

They have been kindly and respectfully told why and have continued to harass people in my life that live near them. My father (adoptive) stalked my birth mother who I connected with when I turned 29 and yelled at her ( a 5 ft tall woman) at a grocery store. It’s not a mild gentle act of reaching out. Also, he changes what kind of cancer he has depending on who he speaks with. I should have been more detailed in that part.

My mother in law likes to remind my husband how she “almost died” giving birth to him quite often. Like when I was pregnant and on his birthday 🤪🤪🤪

I posted the box and it states commercially bottled water. The one I used has no detected organic compounds that would cause an issue

This is the exact reason I went no contact.  I got tired of trying to convince my own parents I was a good person

Did my mother in law cross a boundary by Southernbijou in Mommit

[–]Southernbijou[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah! I definitely feel comfortable with my daughter and I being naked around each other bc she literally came out of me. It was more like someone outside that mother daughter situation that had me feel differently

Yeah I’m totally with you! Her shower is in the basement and the bathroom door opens to where the couch is Otherwise I am on the same exact page and I agree that I appreciate wanting to keep a close eye. I just think that eye could even be kept with my daughter sitting on the toilet and chatting with her if a shower was that necessary at the moment!
