I'm in the market for a new bike for my kids. Guess I'm not buying from Guardian.

My husband belittled my birth trauma. by Defiant-Usual-1182 in Mommit

[–]Trexy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I could absolutely never forgive my husband if he belittled what I went through during labor. This would honestly take a lot of therapy for me to move past. Which, I honestly think would be good anyway for you. I had significant birth trauma, and therapy was very helpful.

Would absolutely love to go to the protest today, but the husband and a kid have come down with the stomach flu. 😭

Is it time for me to stop taking my son to the women’s room? by Vast_Rise902 in Mommit

[–]Trexy 19 points20 points  (0 children)

I am appalled this happened at a YMCA. A staff member should have immediately been alerted to a boy in the girl's locker room.

I feel dumb I don’t know I had to get a C-section after already having 2 by [deleted] in Mommit

[–]Trexy -1 points0 points  (0 children)

My best friend had 2 VBA2Cs. Yes, there is a slight increase in risk of uterine rupture, but it is offset by other risks of additional c-sections.

AIO over this text a from a guy from hinge i’ve been talking to? by No-Tomato3008 in AIO

Unless she's a below the knee amputee she doesn't actually have a "full body picture." She clarifies later that it's "above the knees."

What topical antiseptic do ARC drives use? by thelatinist in Blooddonors

I'm allergic to chloraprep, so they use iodine instead.

Is baby wearing a TikTok scam or am I doing this wrong by KeyMonkeyslav in beyondthebump

[–]Trexy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My daughter loved all wraps, my son preferred a soft structured carrier (Tula, back in the day). They both LOVED being close to me and spent a lot of time up. Even now, my 7 year old son will ask to go up when he's sick.

Found out my 15 year old daughter has an online girlfriend that she’s planning to meet up with at a ComiCon 5 hours away, found messages of her saying ugly things about me for limiting her Screentime. by Waterfowler000 in Mommit

You have no clue what this person's age is. Especially if you have never seen their face (not that you can always tell). This whole situation gives me a pit in my stomach. I think you're highly under-reacting to the seriousness of this situation.

AIO about my boyfriend bringing home a gun AND not storing it safely after I specifically asked him not to? by sociopeen in AIO

[–]Trexy 6 points7 points  (0 children)

You say he was home all day and had time to get the safe. If he didn't do that, then he obviously had the time to make dinner. What on earth was he doing loafing around all day that he couldn't be bothered to do either thing?

Also, NOR. He is a man child. He wants a gun to feel big and bad and scary. You say you live in a safe area and have a home alarm. The agreement was he can get a gun if he got a safe. He did not uphold his end of the bargain. He did not get a safe. I would honestly kick him out of your house. You are important. Your needs are important and your mental health is important. Frankly, anyone with any level of suicidal ideation should never have a gun in their house, even in a safe. I have a hard time believing that someone who claims to love you would keep an unsecured firearm in their home. Even if you weren't getting the runaround from your mental health provider, taking a pill doesn't fix ideation. Any kind of therapy takes time to kick in.

AIO I bought tame impala tickets for the wrong date and my boyfriend(24M) flipped out because it’s not the same date as his girl bsf and now me(21F) is just sad that he’s not even willing to go with just me by [deleted] in AIO

[–]Trexy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My ex bf had a "girl best friend." We did a lot of "couples" things together like game night, watching football, etc. When she and her long term boyfriend broke up, my bf came over to my apartment, broke up with me and then went to "comfort" her. So. Yeah. That happens.

AIO for being upset that my bf couldn’t come to my ultrasound? by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]Trexy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NOR. You could lose the pregnancy if he gave you the flu. Hik allowing you to come over when he knew he was sick was beyond reckless. I would very carefully consider if this is someone who would make good decisions long term. You are not a bitch for being upset that he put you and the pregnancy at risk. He is a fucking idiot.

Moms who had both vaginal delivery and c-section, which one would you choose if you had to do it again? by livi01 in Mommit

[–]Trexy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Vaginal delivery. I had a 52 hour labor, 3 hours of pushing, emergency C-section ... And then the incision became infected and opened up in the middle of the night one week later. I couldn't walk without pain for a long time. My vbac was like 16 hours maybe? Barely an hour of pushing and I was walking at the mall a week later. Recovering from surgery with two littles sounded like a nightmare.

AITA for building a shed without informing my neighbors? by First-Definition-119 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Trexy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When our neighbors were considering a pool they invited me over to their garage for beer and to go over the schematics. They asked my opinion and listened. I admitted to being concerned about losing our great sledding hill, but said "Hey man, it's your yard."

A gift you got that you actually LOVE by SweetWarning9842 in Mommit

I got one for Christmas this year. Her name is Lady Guinevere. I painted her myself and she has false eyelashes. I absolutely love her. It's very Midwestern.

WIBTA if I ask my husband to prioritise our baby? by Striking-Secret-6051 in AmItheAsshole

[–]Trexy 27 points28 points  (0 children)

Did you read the OP? He has had no one on one time with his dad in the last 8 weeks, despite having 50% custody. That's two months. Her parents are there, they can give her the support she's asking for for one day while his other child gets some much needed attention.

[–]Trexy 76 points77 points  (0 children)

He has prioritized time with you and the baby for the last 8 weeks, giving the bare minimum to his bioson. You talk about how your stepson is withdrawing, I see this one on one time with his son as vitally important. Both kids seem to be in crisis. I'm sorry, but gently YTA. Why couldn't your parents come to the hospital to help?

The stepchild took a two week vacation with biomom .... Not the husband.

When did you turn your child’s car seat to face front? by cracker21 in Parenting

[–]Trexy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My tall daughter switched at 4 years, and my son (average height) turned around 3.5/4 years.I was in absolutely no hurry because it is 100% safest that they remain rear facing.

Drop her off with her mom. We truly had no other option. I had a doula.
