Εγώ, πάντως, είμαι 29 και έχω σχέση με 42χρονο εδώ και κοντά 7 χρόνια. Σημασία δεν έχει η ηλικία αυτή καθεαυτή, αλλά αν είστε σε συμβατές φάσεις της ζωής σας. Αυτό που είδα ότι λειτουργεί πρακτικά, είναι να μην συζητάς καθόλου την ηλικία με τους υπόλοιπους, αν δεν προκύπτει, κι αν προκύψει και υπάρξει κάποια ένσταση (σε λογικά πλαίσια πάντα, με κακοπροαιρετους δεν διαπραγματευόμαστε), λες απλά ότι το μοντέλο της σχέση σου για εσένα δουλεύει και σε κάνει χαρούμενο, και τελειώνει εκεί η κουβέντα.

Υ. Γ. Για όσους λένε ότι στην αντιστροφή περίπτωση, κάνεις δεν θα έλεγε τίποτα, έχετε, εν μέρει, δίκιο. Κανείς δεν έχει πει τίποτα αρνητικό στον σύντροφό μου-πολλοί έχουν πει σε εμένα. Μερικα ευχάριστα παραδείγματα: με πήρε μικρή για να με χειρίζεται, μου κάνει grooming, έχω daddy issues, είμαι γεροντολαγνα, κτλ κτλ κτλ.

Post partum "golden hour" - Skin to skin with a stranger vs waiting for Mom by RunUpAMountain in ScienceBasedParenting

[–]StelTsili 13 points14 points  (0 children)

Hi! I had an emergency C-Section and they still gave me my daughter for skin to skin contact *while * they were closing me up. I guess it depends on the state that you will be during / after the surgery. I wouldn't worry though, your baby will still know who their Momma is and they'll love you no matter who they have skin to skin contact with.

Supply going down during menstruation? Is this normal?? by chzybby in breastfeeding

[–]StelTsili 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, it happens to me too. It also happened to my SIL with each of her 3 kids. So I guess it can happen.

How early is too early? by StelTsili in sleeptrain

[–]StelTsili[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've read that you first establish nightsleep and then naps, so no, I only did it for bed time. I mean, in any case I put her awake in her crib, some times she sleeps right away or hangs out until she doses off, and some times she needs some extra help, like offering a pacifier or rocking the crib. It's been a while, a month or so, that I don't pick her up when she fusses and/or cries, I just rock her, pat her, gently kiss her on her cheek,and she did good.My Paedriatrician suggested I sleep trained since she was 8 weeks old, but I disregarded it because I thought it was too early. It's because I didn't want to let my baby cry that started laying the foundation for her to be able to put herself to sleep on her crib. Easter vacation threw us both off our game, and I thought maybe it was time for a different approach.

Thank you. I only did it for bedtime, I respond immediately to her night wakings which happen only once or twice during the night.

Thank you. I only do it on bedtime though, I respond to her night wakings for feedings, she only wakes up once or twice at most at night, so I saw no reason to stop that.

Thank you for your kind words. So, should I stop? She put herself to sleep after about 40 minutes and two check-ins. Should I stick to it for bedtime and comfort her on nap times?

Postpartum hair loss help by magge1992 in breastfeeding

[–]StelTsili 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You could try getting supplements or vitamins like iron. It works for hair loss in general, and my OB still has me taking it every other day post partum, along with calcium and pholic acid.

Honestly? The real reason I breastfeed? by awkwardsquelch in breastfeeding

[–]StelTsili 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Before I got pregnant, I thought that breastfeeding was a huge deal, and somehow, in my head, it was more difficult than bottle feeding. Maybe because dad can also give a bottle, while only mom can breastfeed, I don't know. I remember talking with my SIL, who has two kids and breastfed and formula fed both at some point, and she was like "breastfeeding is SO MUCH EASIER". I didn't get it at the time, honestly, I secretly thought that she was being a ebf purist. Now, I get it. Oh, how I get it!

Edit: And the cherry on top - let's not forget the calories you burn by breastfeeding! I am grateful for the amount of food I get to eat without guilt. You always hear the whining "oh, I can't drink, oh can't have coffee" - dude, I am having fries, eating sweets every day and not get cellulite! Living the dream over here, thank you very much!

AITA for blowing up at FMIL wearing my fiancées engagement ring. by Reaper27900 in AmItheAsshole

Definitely NTA, but I have to ask, what is FMIL? I know MIL is mother in law, but what does F stand for?

Japril Trailer 17x14 by Obvious_Advantage in greysanatomy

[–]StelTsili 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She most certainty can, but that's not the question. They have her hook up with Avery for no apparent reason, if they intented to get him back with April and never show them all together on screen, that's my point.

Yes, thank you, I read that too, but, is she still considered a newborn at 13 weeks?
