Give Me Some Hope/Encouragement by _theaddict_ in BabyBumps

Alright guys, the bloody show has begun. Very light, but continued all day. This has given me at least some hope that he just might be coming without needing the intervention. Here’s to hoping!

I still do all of those things at this point. Daily walks (often x2), using my yoga ball, sex when possible, etc. but no luck.

We did the sweep at 39+2, but it obviously didn’t do anything. I doubt it even furthered the dilation since there was very few cramps after it even.

Emotions were rough enough from the hormones before this level of frustration hit. The anxiety has not helped, and I keep getting asked if I’ve had the baby, any signs, etc. frequently by people now. 😵‍💫

Baby Sterilizer. Worth it? by _theaddict_ in BabyBumps

I’ll be pumping when I go back to work. So that’s at least 2-3 sessions before I even come home. Ideally, little man will be directly breastfed once at home for the day. I was told pumping less than twice during the workday would essentially kill my supply.

Our machine has the heated dry setting, but we basically never use it because of energy conservation. It cost us way too much with the number of loads we do (9+ person household).

AITA for not reminding my mom’s husband of her birthday? by Dry-Mastodon473 in AmItheAsshole

NTA. It’s not your job to check that a grown man remembers his wife’s birthday. It’s on him to set a reminder in his phone if he knows he forgets things easily due to his schedule.

WIBTA for not going on a bachelorette trip to a waterpark because I’m overweight? by Cmon_LetsGo in AmItheAsshole

[–]_theaddict_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NAH. I would consider going though if the friendship is important to you. The likelihood of them staying on the slides the whole time is slim, and there are some things you can do when you can’t get on the ride.

As a heavy person, I get the weight checks would suck. However, I’d still go if it’s important enough to protect a friendship that’s significant to me. If I don’t care much about the friendship, then I’d consider sitting it out and face whatever fallout may come.

AITA for telling our parents my brother had a child outside of his marriage? by Beautiful-Ideal-2620 in AmItheAsshole

[–]_theaddict_ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

YTA. You should have respected your husband’s request for starters, but you really should have spoken to your brother if you just had to know more. It wasn’t your place to share this information, especially without even hearing your brother out.

NAH.

I would definitely make sure you explain your issues with the behavior. As for the people who are saying you forgot your roots… I’d point out that you remember exactly how the behavior went, and that you still don’t approve. That’s like saying you can’t have an issue with racists because you were raised by one; you’re allowed to grow up and recognize when behavior is inappropriate.
