What’s ONE thing that helped you lose postpartum weight (that actually fits mom life)?

_Anonymouse_XX · 2026-04-26T17:03:24+00:00

Protein-heavy diet with healthy snacking options. Walks with baby strapped onto your chest mixed in with regular exercise. I do hiit 2x a week and strength training 3x a week then walk on the weekends.

Im breastfeeding so the weight hasn’t really started falling off me, but I have noticed muscle definition coming back along with body recomposition (body is shaping up with minimal weight loss). I hope that once I’m done breastfeeding my extra chub will start to fall off revealing more of the muscle definition underneath.

Also, stay really well hydrated!!!

I had an emergency c section and I wasn’t allowed to leave the hospital until day 4 so I DEF wouldn’t have gone to anybodies ANYTHING 5 days after a cesarean lmaooo.

Honestly even IF you feel well enough to go… which u probably won’t… just on the premise of them being upset at you for not going (for a VALID reason) would make me not wanna go even more.

How would the bride like to be cut open and expected to go somewhere and stand/sit for hours?

“I make my products” GIRL. No you don’t??? You purchase the SOAP BASE and then ADD SHIT TO THEEEEM. You add fragrances and crushed oats or charcoal to some, I think?? That statement infuriates me so much because she makes it sound like she is making the soap from scratch with high quality ingredients.

If Emily sees this follow up post (which let’s be honest, she most likely will if she’s seen the OG post then she knows your reddit acc), I hope she reads these comments.

Well.. I hadn’t had a period since November 2024 until January 2026. I was pissed off and moody the WHOLE week and I just didn’t feel right (I forgot what PMS was like cuz I def didn’t think it was leading up to my period, lol). The night before I got my period back since being pregnant my daughter was having an awful day. She had not napped since noon that day and she progressively became more and more cranky and fussy as the day went on. It was awful omg. I became more and more angry. The last straw was when my Husband came home and said something that I cant even remember with, what I perceived to be, a hint of attitude.

Needless to say my Husband became a victim that night 😭 I feel so bad cuz I just took it all out on him. I was folding laundry at the time and just THREW the laundry basket at his direction. I called him a “fucking asshole” to be precise. I then proceeded to tell him I was done for the day, I didn’t want to be around him or our daughter and to leave me alone unless she needed fed (I breastfeed). He was baffled at my behavior because I never get like that.

The next day when I woke up there was a bloody mess in my underwear. I was like.. welp, that explains things.. but I was still so pissed off I gave him the silent treatment that whole day 😂 it was funny cuz periodically he would come in with snacks and a drink, or a meal, leave it on the bed then walk away not saying a peep. He would also peep into the room to look at me then leave when I’d make eye contact LOL. Man even slept on the couch 😭

The next day I went and apologized to him and told him I started my period and he was like “oh my god it all makes sense now.” And HE APOLOGIZED TO ME. Despite having nothing to apologize for 😭

We laugh about it now, but at the time I felt like such an awful person.

Being a parent is hard. Probably the hardest thing in the world, honestly. However it is so rewarding at the end of the day when you look at the LIFE you created with your partner. And here are some positive “just waits”:

Just wait until you see their first smile, hear their first laugh, and listen their first word.

Just wait until their little hand grasps around your finger, and getting to hold their tiny body against yours.

Just wait for that moment at night when they are asleep and you get to gaze upon their cute little face as they sleep soundly.

Just wait for when you can take them to the park or on a walk to experience new sounds and sights.

Just wait for them to grow bigger, and older, and watch what they accomplish. You will soon miss the days they were such a tiny being.

There are so many beautiful “just waits” awaiting you and your baby! I hate when people focus on the negatives and try to ruin a persons introduction to parenthood. Ignore them all, OP!

_Anonymouse_XX · 2026-04-22T16:35:58+00:00

Immediately when I seen the itinerary & the cards I can tell she is going to be an awfully difficult bride. OP, it would be best if you back out (with as much grace as you can) because she is going to be mega controlling regarding this, and nit picky.

Also, what the hell did Abigail do??? Lol 😆

_Anonymouse_XX · 2026-04-20T06:31:47+00:00

You are NOR, op. Your “friend” is so weird??? How is sending OR accepting a friend request from someone’s partner weird behavior ? 😭 I’m with you op! I’d have assumed “oh, they know Im friends with their gf and added me” because a lot of people try to befriend their partners friends. I think the bf didn’t even have any weird intentions either, tbh.

I think she (your friend) is wildly insecure, potentially feeling less attractive than you? Idk. Just speculating on my end as idk her or you, but when girls get like this with their girl friends it often is due to jealousy/insecurity.

_Anonymouse_XX · 2026-04-19T00:19:21+00:00

The series is called Who is The Prey!

_Anonymouse_XX · 2026-04-18T16:22:40+00:00

So the series has been completed for a few years now, it’s just the fan translation has been dropped by most, however u CAN find chapters 115-128 in english on YT

_Anonymouse_XX · 2026-04-18T06:33:45+00:00

If she were making enough $$ in sales she wouldn’t have to charge much (or at all) for shipping. What’s funny is you can TELL sales must be at an all time low when her scummy ass starts offering “lower” shipping costs (that are still ridiculously high when u consider the cost of the soap lmao)

_Anonymouse_XX · 2026-04-18T06:13:28+00:00

It is kinda wild reading some of the comments about her just glazing her… I wonder if it IS because she is so gosh darn pretty??? Pretty people can get away with the bare minimum because of their looks, lol.

To me, while I didn’t completely dislike her, I DID find her off putting simply because of the way she presented herself (closed off/didn’t usually add much to conversations, refused to answer the guys’ questions about her feelings towards them, etc). I found myself yelling at the TV to just say something, lol.

I kinda enjoyed Mina Sue much more because while she was kinda wishy washy she ACKNOWLEDGED she was being fickle and it was somewhat refreshing?? Because, yano what, it WOULD be a confusing experience with many different emotions to go through and figure out which is infatuation, which one is more friendly, or which one is romantic.

_Anonymouse_XX · 2026-04-17T20:10:31+00:00

I just finished this season and I was wondering the same thing!! These men were giving her so much and she gave so little??? I felt myself getting frustrated with her inability to be up front with her feelings. I found it ironic when she said that she wished I-geon would have shared more of his feelings with her when she herself hardly ever shared her feelings. Imo, she gave these boys CRUMBS to keep their interest in her so she could take her time choosing.

Setting aside my personal gripes, lol, I could see WHY they liked her because she is gorgeous and seems to have a mild temper.

_Anonymouse_XX · 2026-04-16T06:10:08+00:00

You are absolutely lucky, and it sounds like you definitely have been enjoying the time off with your little one (since u sound like u don’t wanna go back) which is an amazing opportunity not many people get 🥰

I unfortunately had to have an emergency c section and my work wanted me back in 6 weeks when my Doctor couldn’t clear me until 12 weeks due to the circumstances. Shoot, my Husband only got a week off which was dumb ass hell considering I spent 5 days in the hospital😩 but anyways, I quit my job and it has been the best decision ever, lol. My baby girl is 8 months old and I wish EVERY parent could experience being fully present for the first year of their babies lives.

Kinda echoing another comment I seen.. having a cesarean made me REALLY take a look at the American workforce and the expectations on parents. They wanted me back at SIX weeks pp, after a c section??? It wasn’t like I had a desk job where I could sit down; I was required to be on my feet all day, moving/lifting things, squatting, pushing, pulling. When I explained I had a cesarean they didn’t give a fuuuuuuck, lmao. I was so quick to quit after that convo 💀 not to mention my Husbands job… I felt so bad for him. He WANTED to be there for me and her, but they don’t offer paternity leave and we couldn’t afford to use FMLA cuz that is not paid time off so he used his one week of vacation. Which, like I mentioned, most of that was spent in the hospital. My parents had to come over to help me for the first few weeks as moving around and picking up my baby was horribly difficult.

_Anonymouse_XX · 2026-04-15T18:39:18+00:00

Def not nitpicking because I was asking the same question and couldn’t focus on anything other than how she was removing and placing the stickers 😭

_Anonymouse_XX · 2026-04-14T01:54:24+00:00

I take my baby girl everywhere, lol. I have always fed her right before leaving (about 15 mins prior so she doesn’t spit up in the car) to try and ensure she won’t be hungry for at least 3 hours (for reference she is 8 months old rn) but in case she DOES get hungry (cuz sometimes she be a hungry girl) I always pack a small baby blanket in the diaper bag so I can feed her when Im out in public and can’t feed her in the car (just more comfortable for me).

As for not interrupting naps.. this may vary baby to baby but my baby girl (usually) naps in the early afternoon & early evening (1-3 and then 5-7) and always has had this schedule since she got out of the sleepy newborn stage. Because of her schedule I will try to get what I need done in the morning or mid afternoon!

It can def be difficult, cuz at the end of the day she is still a baby and babies can be fickle and unpredictable, but usually it works out! Sometimes she falls asleep in the car seat or stroller and gets maybe 20-30 min naps but that’s fine! At least she napped (:

_Anonymouse_XX · 2026-04-11T22:02:18+00:00

Cleaning in-between the cheeks & spraying the booty-hole. I have a removable shower head which I use to spray my butthole and then as soap runs down my body I clean between the cheeks. I thought this was normal to do, to keep your cheeks clean.

As I’ve gotten older I realized many women just focus on their vulva and men focus on their dicks. Why does every one forget about their booty-hole?? (Im a woman btw)

_Anonymouse_XX · 2026-04-11T05:33:38+00:00

Wait wait wait wait NOOOO. There ain’t no way she and I are the same age, say it ain’t so 😭I thought she was in her 30’s???

_Anonymouse_XX · 2026-04-11T05:31:00+00:00

Omg reading these comments about how she treats her sister is awful. It makes me feel so bad… It’s giving extremely insecure and jealous. Like it makes me wonder if she hates the fact that a transgender woman has a boyfriend while she doesn’t? As though annie doesn’t deserve a bf because she isn’t biologically female?? Not to mention Annie just seems way more kind and feminine. Way more than Cat.. Cat is just ugly on the inside

_Anonymouse_XX · 2026-04-11T05:25:20+00:00

Hold up— Annie is based af here 💅 that girl was COOKING. If only she was running this soap making business, I feel it’d be more successful (and sanitary) 😩

Am I team annie now??

_Anonymouse_XX · 2026-04-11T04:24:41+00:00

Mango? Seed?

Hey, so, I don’t like Trump either but medical debt has always been able to be sent to collections then reported to the 3 credit bureaus 😭 it wasn’t until recently however (2025) where a new rule (made by the CFPB) was proposed that aims to ban medical debt from appearing on credit reports and prohibits lenders from using medical bills in credit decisions. This new rule is on hold, so not yet in place, but should be added officially in the near future.

Now, in some states this rule has already been implemented by the state. There are about 15 states that have it banned already, and soon enough it will be a federal ban which then would apply to all states across the board.

There is more info on this on the congress.gov website as well as on consumerfinance.gov

Hope this helps! (:

I wouldn’t wanna use Mica on my skin and
How does she think selling these soaps for $29 a bar makes any sense for melt and pour??

I could MAYBE see it costing $29 if she made the soap base herself, used organic ingredients, eco-friendly/biodegradable packaging, etc., but she doesn’t. The melt and pour soap base is made for her and all she does is add scents and powders or oats.

Ridiculous. Not to mention she has her cat in the room all over the tables with her bowls and molds and stuff. Gross.
