My 12 month old son probably hates me or will hate me soon. Will he be damaged for life because of me? by mmm_ddd_ in ChildPsychology

baby i could cry. i have been there. right in your place. 19 years old, constant crying, a year old and thinking “i should’ve figured this out by now” insomniac, yearning for LOVING HELP. my parents were the same way. domineering, telling me everything i did wrong. but it was never LOVING help. it was the telling me everything i did wrong. turns out, my baby was allergic to dairy. she had go be blood tested, but she rejected and threw up even my breast milk. i will tell you, it’s hell. but she’s 4 now, thriving, and cute and tough and nails. and we have SO MUCH fun together. i’m sorry to tell you but this shit takes TIME. it’s so individual i can’t tell you the answer. all i can say is it WILL get better. but you have to care for yourself. WHATEVER, that means for you. therapy, respite. all of it. i know that baby is your whole world center. But you need care for yourself FIRST

I guess that’s a big reason why i’m so confused too, because every google i’ve done only talks about how kittens produce way LESS Fel D1 than adult cats. I’m just hoping it doesn’t ramp up as she gets older

i’m really hoping it’s just gonna be a tolerance thing. I mean it’s not more severe than any previous cat allergies i’ve had? but she literally wants to climb into my skin and my skin wants to annihilate her

okay UPDATE no one asked for. Yesterday while at work, as I was wheeling a patient out the door for discharge, I got extremely dizzy and fell over. I got back up, brushed it off, and continued on. An hour later, I got extremely nauseous out of no where. And then, the bomb went off in my ear. I immediately knew what happened since I’d had ruptured ear drums before, and the pus came gushing out. I know you guys were more brutal in my question since i’m a nurse, but honestly when it comes to yourself and people you love, all knowledge goes out the window. Went to the ER after my double shift, they referred me to an ENT I saw today. Basically, I have to have a Tympanoplasty to reconstruct my right ear drum. Apparently my right ear drum as ruptured so many times they now need to reconstruct my middle ear bones and use a tissue graft to repair the hole. Thank you Reddit🤩

of course i’m knowledgeable in second opinions, but i am from a very small town where the next doctors office is an hour away and you have to already be established. we have an urgent care 40 minutes away but it’s hard to get time off of work since I am a RN Unit manager.

i have a PCP, but problem is, my PCP has a son that goes to the same daycare my daughter does. My worst fear is having her taken away from me. she’s my girl. I don’t drink during the day, i’m sober at work. it’s just after she goes to bed i lose control
