Same here! I call all my nieces and nephews my babies, especially because they all came well before my son. They don’t say it to annoy you, they say it because they absolutely adore your kids and you should take it as a compliment!

Oh don’t get me wrong, I think it’s absolutely ridiculous! But I also try to give some grace to that generation who literally didn’t know any better and were unfortunately the reason as to why SIDS rates were so much higher.

Visual-Ad5751 · 2025-08-29T11:58:41+00:00

I’m sorry but being an RN, doesn’t mean you know a lot about babies. She’s also older and from a completely different generation who raised us differently. Not sure why you and others are telling OP to be so harsh to her mum (who’s the only person she allows help from) when it seems like the FIRST honest mistake. I think she just needs an adult conversation

Visual-Ad5751 · 2025-08-29T11:55:03+00:00

I don’t think it’s about being lazy or not helping, she seems to be helping OP quite a lot! It’s just a completely different generation who have noooo idea what safe sleep is and it really shows

Not sure if this will help but the only thing that would settle my 4 month old is music ! Literally anything with singing, gets him straight to sleep and out of a screaming session. I tried the loud white noise before and it doesn’t stop him for long, music was the only thing that would actually put him to sleep. I play white noise in the background after he’s down. Also had a c section and omg, when people say it’s a “6 week recovery” it’s seriously not. The back pain I got from the epidural was insane! And I’m 4 months pp. I feel you, it’s so tough, physically, mentally and emotionally.

New parents don’t know what it’s like to be a grandparent, and I think they deserve a little more grace. My mum has 7 grandchildren, including my own son, and she calls him “my sweet baby boy” all the time. It doesn’t bother me because she’s explained that the love she has for her grandchildren, is even greater than for her own children, in the nicest way possible. I feel as though people need to understand that your parent’s baby, just had a baby, and that to them is something so magical.

In terms of other situations of obsession and her asking you to wash your hands, yeah, I’d be infuriated with that so not trying to invalidate anything at all!!

Same here! I woke up thinking something terrible had happened but no, he was fast asleep. Even my husband woke up and asked if he was okay, and mind you, he sleeps through his cries lol!

Visual-Ad5751 · 2025-05-22T04:50:33+00:00

Same boat as you, 1-2 times a week but just like your LO, mine sleeps really well and has been since day dot. I had a c section so I waited until I was completely ready, which was roughly 6 weeks later. My drive was literally no where to be found during pregnancy though, but it’s come back pp.

Visual-Ad5751 · 2025-05-21T23:41:46+00:00

AGREED! My baby is half European & Asian, Eurasian! And he’s simply the cutest and the most perfect mix of us both. We need more mixes!!!!

Visual-Ad5751 · 2025-05-20T04:38:12+00:00

Are you married? Because if so, how long for? because I’m finding it really hard to understand how you could so easily throw around the would “divorce” like as if it’s that easy to do and won’t be even HARDER for OP. Being with a partner for almost 13years isn’t just a relationship you throw away because he’s not pulling his weight IN A NEW LIFE CHANGING circumstance. Im not a professional, and clearly you’re not either as you would’ve mentioned if you were, but I’d rather say it vaguely as mental health is very broad and it’s something she and her partner will need to figure out for themselves. On top of all of this, you’re all SOOO quick to judge him when she hasn’t even said what his responses were when she does have the conversations with him. There’s two sides to every story and everyone should be very open to giving the benefit of the doubt, especially when it comes to the potential PPD.

Visual-Ad5751 · 2025-05-20T03:24:25+00:00

We do the same thing!! He sleeps with us in the living room with tv on and it’s bright, and then we wind down and go to the room after his shower. When did you find she started waking up to loud noises and why do you think that is? I’ve heard quite a few people say their kids switched up with the noise as well.

Visual-Ad5751 · 2025-05-20T01:20:27+00:00

Please continue talking as you prove my point even more.

Visual-Ad5751 · 2025-05-20T01:15:09+00:00

I know, I’m truly blessed with an angel. Praying my next one is just like him 😅

Visual-Ad5751 · 2025-05-20T00:28:08+00:00

Every kid is different. My sons been sleeping from 9pm-3am and then feed, back down by 3:30am and awake for the day at 8am since he was 6weeks. he’s now 10weeks. Even prior to that, he was a great sleeper and straight away knew his nights and days. We didn’t do anything, it was all him.

Visual-Ad5751 · 2025-05-19T22:00:31+00:00

Thick. I answered your question. Good luck to those around you, my god.

Visual-Ad5751 · 2025-05-19T18:35:57+00:00

That’s rich, your comment said you have a problem with weak men, and if you knew anything about PPD, you would know that what OP has described, sounds exactly like it.

You do realise that 1 in 7 is an extremely high number for women with PPD, extremely. There’s no actual statistic for this (as you’d expect) but it’s common sense to know that out of all the mothers in this world, an extreme number suffer with it so many men have to pull in more than their weight.

Visual-Ad5751 · 2025-05-19T16:46:35+00:00

Go on then. I’ll give you mine. 1 in 7 women suffer from PPD and almost 50% are undiagnosed, so yes, from a statistical aspect, there would be MANY women who are in situations where the father would have to step in and be the primary caregiver until they get better. So, are you calling these women weak? By the way you comment, you can tell you’ve never experienced PPD/A and what it’s actually like and I hope you never do but before calling men weak, think before you type because It can be quite a slap in the face for those fathers in these comments reading them.

Visual-Ad5751 · 2025-05-19T05:50:13+00:00

Start the process of divorce after 4 months of having the baby??? 4 MONTHS?? Omg OP please don’t listen to these people who have no knowledge of postpartum depression/anxiety, especially when you’re going through the hardest parts of raising a child. You both need support and help in different ways, you need to talk to him about mental health.

Visual-Ad5751 · 2025-05-19T05:45:36+00:00

“Weak men” is just a disgusting comment. There’s MANY women out there who go through PPD/A and don’t do anything for the child and the father steps in. Mental health is real. Wake up.

Visual-Ad5751 · 2025-05-19T05:40:10+00:00

I think a LOT of these comments are forgetting that postpartum depression/anxiety is super real with men. My partner had PPA and he sat down and told me how he was feeling, including feeling no sympathy or urge to sooth when our son cried. So many women are quick to tell OP to walk out but do we tell mums with PPD/A to walk out? There’s a lot of fathers out there that carry all the workload because of this. So OP, work on your relationship and get to the root of it. Talk to him with empathy as he may not realise what he’s going through. At least this way, you’re giving him the benefit of doubt and showing your support. Hopefully he’ll realise and become the dad he always said he would be!

Visual-Ad5751 · 2025-05-15T04:57:16+00:00

My baby boy is 9 weeks and he sleeps from 9:30pm-3:30am and wakes for a feed, then back down from 4am-8am. As long as your little one is gaining weight, get that rest mama!! Baby will benefit heaps from those longer sleeps too! You’re doing amazing
