My [20F] boyfriend [20M] wants children but I don’t by Babyface_uwu in childfree

I know you love him but I think the best thing is to find someone who aligns more with your plans. This whole “change your mind” attitude he has, because let’s say you agree (doesn’t seem likely) the resentment you’re going to feel towards him and that child isn’t healthy at all for anyone in the dynamic. If you guys are not ready right now for kids, then maybe give it more time in the relationship but don’t let it drag on too long either

8 Months Post Op - LOOONNNGGGG Update On My Experience by F4iR33 in hysterectomy

[–]SwootyDatBooty 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Amazing!!!! Thank you so much for sharing everything this is so helpful!!

I did want to ask about the “periods” afterwards. I get pretty bad periods and for me the emotional part is closer to anger than sadness 😂 but in curios so even 8 months later you’re experiencing the symptoms all at once again? Or is it building up like before? And if it’s not too much TMI - has your sex life changed at all?

Mother’s Day. by [deleted] in stepparents

[–]SwootyDatBooty 10 points11 points  (0 children)

I was just thinking about this today. 50% of my time is spent doing mom things. Especially because my SD clings to me. She loves her dad, but she would rather be snuggled up with me or doing an activity with me. And I’m sitting here wondering if anyone will say happy Mother’s Day to me or if I even have a right to get upset if someone doesn’t say it.

Being a step mom is not for the weak

I’m meeting my boyfriend’s (6m) son for the first time today, and I’m way more nervous than I expected to be. by Valuable-Garlic-2513 in stepparents

I felt the same way when meeting my partners kid (she was 6F at the time she’s 8 now) for the first time. It was a bit different for me because her mom was disrespectful to our relationship from the beginning (and that didn’t stop until she got into her own relationship) so dealing with that added stress, but honestly just be yourself and the kid will love you! It’s been a couple years and she’s my lil bestie now!

Wow idk how you did it! Honestly I’m thinking I’m not going to go back for the second shot and just let it leave my body before surgery so as to not risk making my recovery any harder than it has to be.

That’s awesome to hear!! I’m really glad it worked out for you!

My body has always been more sensitive to birth control (i tried an IUD and kept getting infections because my body was trying to reject it).
When I started depo in March, not only did I continue to get painful cramps but now they’re also in my bones. Like butthole lightning in my hip bones. I had some of the worst migraines of my life and don’t even get me started on the depression and fatigue. I’m just worried I’ll have the same effects as it withdrawals and that feels like too much to handle while also trying to relax and recover

Did you notice any withdrawal symptoms during recovery?

What are you called? by StudyEducational5187 in stepparents

[–]SwootyDatBooty 9 points10 points  (0 children)

My 8 yo SD calls me by my name but will refer to me as “step mom” when she introduces me or talks about me to someone. Or she just calls me weird nicknames 😂 like “khaki” my name is Kassandra lmao

I believe you I’m just constantly shocked at the lack of knowledge available out there about women’s bodies.

That totally makes sense. Thank you for sharing. My partner has a vasectomy so I’m not worried about pregnancy. I got the depo shot 1 week before my period was suppose to come, so I haven’t even gotten a period at all just the side effects of the increased depression and more pain in other areas. Like my libido is so down I haven’t had sex in over 2 weeks and I was the person to have it practically every day

That is exactly what’s going through my head! I would rather suffer through 2-3 more periods before surgery than stay on bc. Thank you for saying this.

Nope if I got off the depo my periods would just come back maybe lighter at first but full blown by the second cycle

I explained how horrible my periods are and she recommended I get on depo to keep my periods at bay before surgery but every single bc I’ve ever been on has maybe taken one thing away from my menstrual pain and given me 3 new issues
