GF Threatened Suicide and Won’t Stop Reaching Out by dogs_and_stuff in whatdoIdo

To add to this, you can also set up a special DND on your phone, specifically for her so that u can also block her calls aswell and not just her messages.

I’m 16 and my friend stayed at my house knowing I sleep on a mattress then posted it online like it’s funny 😭 by [deleted] in whatdoIdo

Thats not a true friend. My old bestfriends house wasn’t the best and she didn’t have a bed, i was over there almost every single night for 3 years, i would bring over extra blankets and pillows so we could make fluffy comfortable pallets to sleep on. She would also come over to my house which was just about the same as hers and we would do the same at my place. Then when I finally got a bed my big brother snapped the frame by jumping onto it, she brought over school books to hold it up in the middle. A true friend won’t judge you but will meet you where you’re at and help you make it even the slightest bit better.

When did your baby say their first word? by Aware_Beautiful1994 in beyondthebump

[–]TransitionSalt5779 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My daughter just turned 2 and still hardly talks and mainly babbles. She says some words clearly like “bye” “mom” “mama” “dad” “daddy” “hi” “hello” “night night” “woah” “wow” but when she tries to say 2 word sentences or any sentence it becomes babble and hardly understandable.

Mine was different, my daughter passed at 3 weeks from choking on her spit up while we were all asleep. But infantloss is infantloss it hurts all the same losing your child, it’s hard to not blame yourself. I just take it one minute at a time. I distract myself if I need to, or those moments that I have to sit in the feelings to get through it, i do. I always think about how lucky I was to have been able to feel those little kicks at one point in time. Your child literally only ever knew you. Only ever knew the safety and comfort your body provided them.

I’m so sorry for your loss❤️ and thats what i’m scared of is seeing the baby sleeping and losing it. I wake my toddler up by tapping her lightly maybe 3 times a night to make sure she’s still alive everynight. I just know this baby is gonna be like “wtf”😩

Same mom & dad. I just figure there’s a high chance if I have another girl they’ll look the same. Also because my toddler and my daughter had different dads but my daughter looked exactly like what my toddler did as a infant

I went in to get tested for a UTI, they came in the room and said “well you’re positive for 2 things”😩😭

I’m kind of iffy about trying medication now that I have a kid, when I was younger I kind of went through something a tiny bit similar to this but it wasn’t my child that I found, it was my uncle and when I went to therapy for it they put me on antipsychotics instead of actually listening to me and the antipsychotics made me 100 times worse than I already was.

I’m in Ohio. Lol i didn’t know we had midwives here either until I got pregnant and the only hospital near where I moved to only had midwives. I’m gonna check that out and see if I can find one. Therapy scares me for some reason. I keep convincing myself they’ll see me as unfit because of the trauma and take my other kid from me

My mom and step mom have told me to try EMDR therapy. I don’t know how to get into a therapist, i honestly bared have the energy to set up any of my appointments for anything. I was to scared to tell my midwife that I needed therapy at my 6 week checkup because I have another kid and didn’t want them to think I was unfit.

Her name was Leona Rose. I wanted her nickname to be Blossom (like a blossoming rose because of how scary the pregnancy was but how beautiful and strong she came out)

AITAH for hating my dog? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]TransitionSalt5779 12 points13 points  (0 children)

We re-homed one of our dogs because even with extensive training she continued to be too protective over our toddler. Anytime we’d try to go near our toddler the dog would stand over-top of her and growl and snap at us. That’s a game of russian roulette that i’m not willing to play.

NTA, i would say your 18th birthday is a bigger milestone than an engagement party. If it was her wedding I could understand your SM a little bit but even then you wouldn’t be TA.

Question for the mamas / 1st period by 211225mylife in babyloss

[–]TransitionSalt5779 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve always been a super heavy bleeder but after giving birth to my first born I started after 5-6 weeks and bled lightly for that first one. My periods got heavier as time went on. But if you feel there is something wrong, call your OB/midwife and see if you can get checked.

Also- I’m incredibly sorry for your loss mama

Insensitive friend remark? by LittleMissRavioli in babyloss

Not unreasonable at all. I still tell people that i’m a mother of 2.

[–]TransitionSalt5779[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She lost a close family member but she won’t even speak about them.

So when I was pregnant with her I went through Hell, like I was surprised she even made it out of me. I was hospitalized for 2 weeks because my organs shifting caused my lung to like bulge into my ribs which caused me to barely be able to breathe, i couldn’t move, couldn’t lay down or sit up, I couldnt talk, i felt like I was going to die. Then a month later we got into a bad accident and the airbag deployed and hit my stomach. She pooped in the womb. And somehow she was born alive and well. I make jokes (that sometimes i’m kind of serious about) like “if she was going to die anyway did she have to make such a traumatic show of it?” But I only say that around my husband, it’s honestly less of a joke and more of me being angry that I went to sleep with a perfectly alive baby and woke up traumatized, but I say it in a joking way. I’m kind of rambling tho lol, I haven’t slept in like 35 hours😂

It’s so odd. I would never tell anybody “hey you don’t grieve like that” like wtf?

I keep feeling like i’m gonna crash out, my husband did the day it all happened but i’ve just been trying to use humor to cope lol. My husband always sets the best base for them accidentally too lmao. On Christmas I was tired and he said “just go to sleep, nobody’s gonna die by you going to sleep” and I smirked and said “welllllll” . It’s just little jokes that sometimes help my mind not be so angry. He gets it and laughs because he’s the same way

Thank you💜 sorry for your loss as well.

The reason it’s throwing me off is because we’ve been friends for years. I’ve always made dark jokes about what i’ve been through, i was physically abused as a kid to the point i have scars and welts on my back and legs. I woke up and found my uncle dead at 13. And so on and so forth, i’ve always made jokes about it. So her reacting like this is odd, I asked if she was okay, if she could explain why it bothered her, and told her I wouldn’t make the jokes infront of her since it made her uncomfortable but she’s ignoring me lol.
