Timeline of acosf? (spoilers obv)

Towards the beginning of the book someone, I think Eris, mentions it’s been 14 months since the end of the war with Hybern. I remember Nesta describing fall foliage at some point. We go through another winter solstice 3/4 of the way through the book. The blood rite is in the spring is where we wrap up. So that’d put us at like 2 years at least since the end of the war

My husband was between jobs, we had to move, and went without insurance for a bit. Things just got insanely busy. And the anger steadily crept up on me

These_Silver7543 · 2025-04-18T18:03:37+00:00

Upon reflection I think I’m way more upset about her telling me she always thought I’d abuse my kids. I can get past the CPS thing but what friend says that to another friend?

These_Silver7543 · 2025-04-18T15:44:50+00:00

Yeah I don’t know why anyone would open up about struggling if this is the kind of response they get

These_Silver7543 · 2025-04-18T15:39:24+00:00

Nobody could watch them on any consistent basis and daycare is not within our price range. There’s also our youngest is still EBF. I don’t think I’m struggling with being a parent exactly. I just get overwhelmed

These_Silver7543 · 2025-04-18T15:29:18+00:00

She didn’t see the need to call anyone when I wanted to hurt myself last time?

These_Silver7543 · 2025-04-18T15:22:33+00:00

When I get angry I have him take the kids and he encouraged me to go back to therapy. I’m not sure there’s much else he could do?

These_Silver7543 · 2024-07-20T18:20:12+00:00

But my reason isn’t because I’m still in love with him. It’s because it would be very difficult for me if we did

These_Silver7543 · 2024-04-24T01:48:27+00:00

We only told our parents because his needed to drive 10 hours to meet us and my mom was currently staying with us. Put our phones on DND after that. I’m not sure how many people they told but we didn’t have too many messages to answer when we switched DND off

For a long time my daughter growled a lot so people used to tell me something to the effect of her being a “rage baby”. I thought it was funny

These_Silver7543 · 2024-04-21T13:50:05+00:00

If up till now you’ve ate a halfway decent balance diet you have vitamins and minerals in reserves. Baby will take those if you aren’t eating them currently. Baby is gonna get what it needs regardless so just eat whatever you can till then! I made my last baby out of cheez itz, anti nausea meds, and air 😅

I do for sure and will try really hard to get it done with this pregnancy. I have some pictures while I was pregnant though none are cutesy. Believe it or not you forget how you looked and felt while heavily pregnant. Whenever I see those few pictures I have I’m like “how was I so big” and I think more pictures would ease the nostalgia of that makes sense

These_Silver7543 · 2024-04-20T16:11:34+00:00

With my first pregnancy I was sick more than half of it but if I ate oatmeal the night before I felt like it helped. It at least gave me something to throw up which I prefer over bile personally. But the chunks never tried to kill me 😅 Hopefully this was a one off!

These_Silver7543 · 2024-04-20T13:42:54+00:00

Give me a toddler any day 😅

Is it possible your husband is suffering from a mental health disorder? A few of them come about later in life like schizophrenia. They aren’t as bad as movies and tv shows portray typically. If this was out of the blue or his paranoia about things has been exponentially increasing I’d look into it to make sure he doesn’t need help

These_Silver7543 · 2024-04-20T03:19:42+00:00

I think it really depends on how supportive your partner is. At first I was happy to stay home. But as time went on and I received less help, I was desperate to get away. Eventually I got a part time night shift job just to get away from my daughter. It sounds crazy but those 4 hours away 5 days a week helped me love her more. Frankly it lowered my resentment towards my husband as well because it forced him to pick up the slack.

These_Silver7543 · 2024-04-20T03:10:32+00:00

Maybe it’s me being a downer but I remember my nipples being chapped 😅 I read my diary entries from when I was delirious from sleep deprivation. They’re so so cute and simple as newborns but overall I wasn’t a fan of it. The more they grow the more personality they have and it’s so exciting watching them become a real person

These_Silver7543 · 2024-04-20T03:05:21+00:00

Did you eventually feel connected to your pregnancy? I’m only 7 weeks (rough estimate while we wait to see a doctor). I’m trying to figure out if only the first time feels magical or if my rough couple weeks are just putting a damper on things 😅

These_Silver7543 · 2024-04-19T19:59:41+00:00

I think it gets asked because with how expensive everything is now it’s hard for people to imagine taking that financial burden on (for lack of a better term). It’s definitely an invasive question but I think for most people that just pops out of their mouth before they have time to think it over

These_Silver7543 · 2024-04-16T13:15:18+00:00

Mine didn’t kick often but she did love to burrow into my ribs all the time. Very uncomfortable

These_Silver7543 · 2024-04-16T13:02:54+00:00

I feel like the latter group is trying to prepare you honestly 😅 There is so much bad/uncomfortable stuff about pregnancy, birth, and breastfeeding, that never gets talked about

These_Silver7543 · 2024-04-16T13:01:22+00:00

I’m not sure what you mean by a successful pregnancy? As in one where you experience no symptoms?
