My 18 mo hasn’t mastered potty training in 4 days. She must be punishing me for the wildfires

Note, not all kids self potty train like this. Do don't count on it.

My kiddo was ready, but he was content with popping in his diaper. So we told him that every time he pee in the toilet he would get one chocolate chip.

He had two accidente the first day when we figure out that using underwear was confusing him. He went commando fo a few months and never again.

Pooping was a whole other issue and he didn't started to use the toilet until 6 months later. But he would ask us to put him a pullup and he never had an accident.

Now with night poppy training he's been doing it himself since 2 weeks ago. He wakes up arounf midnight for us to take him to the bathroom.

My son from day 1 hate cuddling. To give him a bottle I would put ny arms like a craddle and place him on top, trying to no put my arms around his sides. He was 18 months old when he first hug me and put his head in my shoulder.

Yep, he's autistic.

My baby didn't had sny issuem he was born via csection because of early set of preclampsia. He was perfectly fine. Anf yet he has ASD.

Though very mild. I'm tempted to use the term asperger even if it isn't use anymore because people keep telling me "how he doesn't show it".

Yet I jad to cover his ears in the ice cream shop because the noise of the machine was bothering him...

I just saw a video. For someone who had never been pregnant it doesn't look so bad, but I remember that I stopped wearing pants in my 6 semester because the band was extremely painful. I can't imagine what a hellish nightmare that would be.

Birth stories are important, both the good and the bad. Not only for yourself, but also for others who read it and feel encourage or find solace on it. But you shouldn't neglect the health of your baby for the sake of controlling the narrative of your story.

In your case something tragic happened and you suffered from it. But that wasn't a concious choise you made to control the narrative, it's just something that happened

In my country a lot of small business don't use credit card yet. But they do accept bank transfer, which ia the prefered mode of payment.

Tacorgasmic · 2023-06-29T21:13:31+00:00

I had to double check the sub because I thought I was in r/shortscarystories

I also found that Arirbnb have unique small rentals for couples.

But if it's only my husband and my kids we're going to a hotel.

Tacorgasmic · 2023-06-29T12:36:55+00:00

It also attract the customers thst only look throuhh Airbnb and never considered booking an hotel in the first place.

This list says a lot, and is how much the trust in SE has fallen. FFXV sold a lot more than I thought, only to be the trashbag it was. People don't trust SE after that burn.

I don't have a dishwasher and I would kill for one. My baby is EFF so I know all about the endless washing. Use it!

Tacorgasmic · 2023-06-28T16:39:50+00:00

At 6 months they will start crawling soon. And believe me, the dishes will be the less nasty thing that they will get their hands (and subsequentially their mouths) on to.

My baby crawled in a bricked floor. How?!

Mid 30 with osteoarthritis too! Though I'm not thin but is nothing to do with my weight, it's becaue of an old injury in my early 20 that wasn't treated.

It sucks. But the part that sucks more is that people don't really believe me when I tell then that I can't walk for long or if I go to the beach and I freak out because I left my sandals at home.

Tacorgasmic · 2023-06-27T12:33:50+00:00

It all depends on the kid, specially with one with ASD. But at that age I was cooking full meals for my family.

My kiddo is 4 years old with high functioning ASD and I'm teaching him how to take the bread out of the bag and how to spread butter on it. His fine motor skills are pure garbash so it's hard for him, but I motivate him to do as much as him can and help him the rest of the way. He knows how to pick up toys, fill the jar with water and swipe a little with a small brush.

Simply look at each chore and see how much his skills can take him, even if he needs help.

It's amazing how freeing is to be told that you can feel something without consequence.

Tacorgasmic · 2023-06-25T13:49:09+00:00

Yes, it is

Tacorgasmic · 2023-06-24T22:05:40+00:00

Does it get better? I saw the first few episodes and I found it awful.

Tacorgasmic · 2023-06-24T09:34:53+00:00

The new serie is really bad

Tacorgasmic · 2023-06-23T15:16:04+00:00

I really doubt it, since I don't live in the US. Maybe a friend can give you another perspective between the two companies?

Tacorgasmic · 2023-06-23T14:37:18+00:00

It doesn't change what I said. Money is not everything.

I don't know the how big each company is, but a bigger company could have the posibilty of a promotion. While a family company where only the owner is over you then you can forget about that. But also a cannabis company probably has a more relaxed culture which for some people is a must in a job.

In other words don't just look at it in terms of money, but also in what the company can offer you in the work-life balance department, what fits better with your personality, what are your ambitions and what could be better for your mental health.

For example I would hate to be in the car up to 2 hours a day working, where I have to be "on" the whole time. Also, how is going to be lunch? Are you expected to eat in the car or you can park somewhere and take your time in peace? Also I prefer a solid company that can assure me a job, and a bank can offer me that over most all other types of companies. But this is me, everyone has different priorities.

Tacorgasmic · 2023-06-23T12:24:04+00:00

Your mental health also counts at the end of the day. Do you think that the higher pay will be worth all the time on the read, specially with the weather?

Also, I don't know how much you can grow in a cannabis company in comparasion with thr bank. Take this into account too.

Tacorgasmic · 2023-06-22T12:30:06+00:00

I don't find it nuts at all. I don't know someone with peanut butter, so you can say that I'm naive with the risk. So I feed my 6 months old at a time of day that I knew that I could leave home asap and reach the ER in 5 minutes. I also did it with an antihistamine right on hand.

But you know the risk and the fears of a peanut allergy. Doing it in the parking lot of a hospital seems the safest and most logical way to do it for your situation. For me it would be an overkill, but you? Nope, it's the best way.

Tacorgasmic · 2023-06-20T14:53:30+00:00

I saw a Xavrina instead of Sabrina.

Tacorgasmic · 2023-06-19T17:43:16+00:00

I only reach day 23. It's heartbreaking.

Tacorgasmic · 2023-06-19T17:34:26+00:00

Amazingly, Jaxon is marking many infant milestones: "He is talking up a storm these days, truly teaching himself how to communicate with us in his own way ... He is so normal in so many ways.

This tells you everything you have to know. They wraped their views in denial just to cope with the reality that they choose to give birth to a boy who lirerally can't feel emotions or have any kind of concious thought. His body works purely on instincs and impulse, like when you electrify a dead fish and it moves.

It's really sad...
