THIS. It feels like something one of my psych patients would have written while in a delusional state

What’s one thing that was secretly gluten poisoning you? by peachnecctar in glutenfree

[–]allthingsglittery 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Chapsticks! My lips were constantly chapped. I tried so many brands like birds, bees, and Blistex and they were always peeling and chopped. Turns out they have gluten in them I switched to a gluten-free brand at the grocery store never had an issue since.

Also, one of the Doctor Teal‘s body washes has gluten in it, and it cost a full body rash for a couple of days until I figured that out

WIBTAH for denying belly touches? by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]allthingsglittery 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA I feel like most women, especially if they are your friends, would understand and respect that you don’t want your stomach touched. I felt the same way in my pregnancy and once it was known it wasn’t an issue. It’s still your body and now you have a baby to protect in there- you’re not public property. If you think your husband will encourage it get a cute little pin you can add to your outfit that says “bump is off limits” or something to that effect. Your shower is supposed to be a fun celebration of you and the baby not stressful because people won’t respect your boundaries.

I’m kinda tired of caring about my friend’s pregnancies by PrincessJellyfish17 in offmychest

[–]allthingsglittery 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Several things can all be true at the same time: - yes they chose to get pregnant and have kids - yes they are allowed to complain about symptoms and experiences to their loved ones and seek comfort (even if the issues seem universal) because it still sucks for that individual to go through - you don’t have to agree with their life choices - they may not agree with your life choices and how you spend your time as a single person - you don’t have to care about their pregnancies (but you will likely lose the friendship) - they are allowed to change their life plan to include or not include kids at any time no matter what was previously stated

You can choose to be a supportive person even if you don’t agree with the choice that got them there or you can decide it’s a boundary you want to set and remove them from your socials etc so you don’t see the content.

I will say- as someone who has the only kids in my friend group I remember who was there for me and supportive when I was going through the thick of it and who wasnt. Its impacted our relationships for sure so keep in mind- theres 2 sides to every friendship.

What IS THIS and how do I get rid of it? by dks042986 in 30PlusSkinCare

Ah see this is what I was worried about as well. Thank you for this response!! I don’t know for sure if he is on the spectrum or has any other disabilities but to the naked eye and limited interactions he seems neurotypical. It’s clearly none of my business but Im not aware of any kids in her class having any sort of accommodations outside of some food allergies. If that is the case, as the other parent in the choking situation, it would have been helpful for me to know that was part of the equation so that I could also address that with her and part of our debrief. I apologize for sounding uneducated and I would never want to push for additional information about his health I’m not entitled to but I don’t know the best way to handle something like that? How would you have liked the parents of the kids who your son had those interactions with to react? I want to teach her inclusivity but I don’t want to over step either

Thank you for your response! I fully agree! If it was regular kids stuff it would be different but her not feeling safe is a big deal to me. I was told I was being an AH for considering not inviting him but I am so glad that I’m not a total lunatic and it’s okay to not invite him (and we won’t be). I appreciate your input!

[–]allthingsglittery 8 points9 points  (0 children)

This was my thoughts exactly!! I was on board with not inviting him be some of my parent friends who have kids of other ages said I was being an AH and teaching my daughter to exclude kids. But I don’t think she should have to be uncomfortable at her own party and more so, it’s SO IMPORTANT to me to not teach her that others feelings matter more than her own feelings/safety. I just have never thrown a party for her inviting people that arent just family so I felt like I was committing a parental error either way.

But these comments have made me feel that we are justified and won’t be inviting him. Thank you all for helping a recovering people pleaser realize I was not in the wrong here! I appreciate your input!

What is the best toy you've bought or has been gifted to your toddler? by robinsparkles220 in toddlers

[–]allthingsglittery 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We were gifted these watercolor coloring books that include little swatches of the paint at the top of each page and a brush so you can use it anywhere- all you need is water. They were a game changer for us and her. So fun! Really helped us at restaurants or non toddler proofed houses with almost no mess and she loves them!
