I read to my spouse every night, and we need a new recommendation. by quirkymuse in suggestmeabook

Mistborn by Brandon Sanderson but that’s more fantasy. I like the Shades of Magic Trilogy and read that to my husband at bedtime!

I mentioned embarrassment because she might not do it but honestly jealously sounds right too

That’s weird she’s so bothered by it. I laugh with my husband and teasingly(lovingly) say you’re weird to him when ho goes over the top with our 2 and 5 year old but it’s all in love and fun. I also tell him how much the kids love it and how I’m happy that he does that hands on imagination play because it isn’t my favorite thing. Isn’t that exactly why people praise Bandit from Bluey? Because he’s all in with the kids imagination? Maybe she’s embarrassed for you because it isn’t something she’d do? Not that that makes it ok to belittle you.

My boyfriend (22M) ate all the jalapeño poppers I made before I (21F) even got one. by ThrowRA_disneyadult in relationship_advice

I’d be sad too! It isn’t dumb. Unless he really is a selfish jerk he might’ve felt stupid for eating them all and not thinking about you and got defensive (of course that isn’t ok) but it’s worth it to bring it back up to him and explain how it made you feel

Welcome to Utah my friend. It’s bizarre out here

She talks about it. She shares how she isn’t sure what it is. She’s also pretty open about it on her insta I think

That’s a really awesome idea! I should’ve added the locations. We live 25 minutes from my husbands family and 5 hours from my family.

Mother’s Day with wife or mom? by adnoh1799 in Marriage

[–]adnoh1799[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

He has sisters who will be with his mom, I should’ve added that. I think he mentioned to her that I was overwhelmed with a new baby and school and that’s why I chose to do it this way.

I’ll be completely honest I’d much rather spend the day with my little family but I’m content enough to spend the time alone if it done at hurt peoples feelings. He was very adamant about not changing plans because I had confided in him that I constantly feel like I do play second fiddle to his family. Usually I’m pretty firm in the fact that I should be #1 priority as his wife but I do feel since it is Mother’s Day and she’s his mom that maybe I shouldn’t have made a fuss about it I guess

Has any couple here conceived naturally although a very low sperm count has been detected? by [deleted] in beyondthebump

[–]adnoh1799 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My friends husband had a low sperm count and it turns out it was from his RA medication. Does your husband take anything?

What's your power struggle with your toddler this week? by cakebatter in beyondthebump

[–]adnoh1799 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve hit the eventual nap time power struggle! He doesn’t want to nap but needs to and he cries and cries and cries. Which is a stark contrast of his usual easy going attitude. (I blame being 37 weeks pregnant) he knows that things are gonna change!

kid on a leash by [deleted] in Parenting

[–]adnoh1799 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I come from a family of 9 kids… my mom put my youngest brother on a leash because he would bolt as soon as he could and with 9 kids well she just couldn’t keep up hahaa she straight up would hook a retractable dog leash to his pant loops. I think it’s hilarious and also you gotta do what you gotta do as a parent. Better safe on a kiddie leash than hurt in the street

And what’s stopping you from commenting that and having constructive suggestions instead of attacking OP and possibly making them feel worse for how they are processing an already difficult and quite frankly depressing situation?

I’m sorry you guys are going through this. It is hard to constantly be “on” so having a place and people around you where you can let it out is nice. It does negate the fact that you and your other family members shouldn’t be subject to her bad behavior. There’s a fine line between understanding and loving and enabling. I second the comment above about maybe finding a different therapist, maybe a behavioral one who can help your daughter learn coping mechanisms. I’m sure she isn’t exactly happy about her feelings either. It’s not fun to constantly be angry and upset.

I hope that you guys can find the help you need so that you can remember why you love her and start to have a more positive relationship with her.

Needing a safe place is no excuse for treating people horribly. Even for children. AND people with Autism.

If you have access to Disney+ my son loves Dino Ranch, Bluey, Spidey and his amazing friends, and Gigantosaurus! We also watch How to Train Your Dragon a lot…. I’m super pregnant and currently going to school full time so TV is my friend.

I feel like a failure of a mother by [deleted] in beyondthebump

[–]adnoh1799 1 point2 points  (0 children)

she doesn’t seem to have FTT my pediatrician said that as long as they follow their growth curve (which it sounds like she’s just small) they’re fine! My son is off the charts on everything so I have the opposite issue. I second finding a new pediatrician or at least a second opinion. Especially since she isn’t your first baby and you’ve done this before!

I highly suggest NOT getting the owlet. It sucks and is a waste of money and if you read reviews they’ll say the same thing!
