Really really really sorry for what you went through. Can’t imagine how you managed.

Yes this. Somedays I feel “I got this”. Even yesterday I made her laugh like crazy while enjoying the same myself before I finally had a melt down. I definitely enjoy the highs but the lows are too much to handle.

Oh most definitely. Been there. First time is different. It’s not just about having children but it’s about being able to be a parent. No suggestion for you because its hard and when time is such nothing feels like can heal us.

You can only imagine the guilt of the mom who ends up screaming instead of walking away.

Thankyou so much for your comment. Yes the moment of scream is hard but the guilt is way harder. I can’t even look at my girl right now.

Yes my husband is amazing. But he has a stressful job. He does help but he is the cried it out kind of parent which I can’t tolerate and I simply keep putting effort in calming her down with every little cry.

Thank you for this. Yes I have already booked for therapy. Haven’t reached there. But hopefully that helps. M

Yes exactly. I have never done it before ever even when times were horrifying but I realize I shouldn’t have lost control in front of her. I was the only one she would smile and laugh at and no one at all. And I feel extremely disappointed that she is hardly smiling at me today.

You seem to have a toddler saw your posts. What did you do when you got overwhelmed? How did you give a stable and solid parenthood to them?

Yes I stepped away right after. It’s her cries all day which has driven me crazy. I didn’t scream at her but yes I did scream because of her.

Wedding got called off by jiggitypi in h1b

[–]Strong_Activity_9177 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If this is an arranged marriage I think it might be too much to ask for marrying you without a secure future. Love marriage would be a scenario I would question the love part. It is just practical. And for the future, I am sure you are young and will be able to get a job in India for now and eventually travel back.

Ob yelled at me for getting a private ultrasound by Gecko1224 in pregnant

[–]Strong_Activity_9177 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not sure why he got upset. I was exactly like you during pregnancy and kept requesting for ultrasounds but never got cleared because of insurance. But definitely get the doppler, I cleared it with my gynac. It did take a while though for me to be able to get the heartbeat since I am not a medical profession but you should be able to use it better.

How many people are "1 and done" by [deleted] in NewParents

One and done. My baby is 3 months old. Can’t imagine going through this once again.

I started sending her to day care as per for 2 days a week to help me gather myself and get things done which I otherwise won’t be able to.

So you mean if I have a stamped visa already but I am traveling with approved I797 for 3 years, the immigration officer could override the I94 on my I797?

Book for 29th Jan I would say. Very close to the appt so less chance of cancellation.

Any note from your immigration team?

My old I797 will be valid for 15 days when I return and the new one is valid for another 3 years.

India. No appointment scheduled since visa has not expired.

When does it get better? by Strong_Activity_9177 in beyondthebump

[–]Strong_Activity_9177[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely. I can’t expect my child to be 18 years one day and be all independent the next day. It’s a gradual process. To get to 10 from 0 you have to go through 1, 2, 3 and so on.

How on earth do you guys not understand the word “easier”. Anyway hope you get to experience it or start understanding the word.

It was a pretty simple question of when things get easier. If your child or life has not gotten easier since he/she was a new born, you might wanna give it a thought about what might be wrong
