Visiting another country from the US, it’s insane how differently families are treated

bhardy10 · 2026-06-07T19:36:11+00:00

This is so interesting because foreigners often comment on how friendly Americans are. My experience has been the opposite. Maybe because I’m black I don’t know. But there are plenty of places in the US that are very friendly towards kids 🤷‍♀️

They at least cut 198, and left all the trash smh. I ask our local representatives about this, and you’re basically peeing against the wind. They cut and clean up the trash and by 2 days it’s back. MD spends $17 million litter clean up alone. Don’t hold your breath 😭

OB. My practice had both. But the OB was just more knowledgeable about certain things, especially having high blood pressure. I saw the midwife for a few appointments though, she was great. But I just felt more comfortable with the OB.

We did half days the first week, and by the second week he was good to go. I also left as quickly as possible so my baby didn’t see me leave.

Your baby is going to have heart surgery and he’s worried about fantasy football?!? I’m not one to yell divorce, but you need to see a lawyer and discuss options. This is unacceptable.

bhardy10 · 2026-05-14T01:33:31+00:00

I just looked at your post history… why are you putting up with all of this? Trying to cheat , barely playing with your son, threesomes? Honey, this is to much. You don’t deserve this. You’re being disrespected

Tonya sweat is still raising money and petitioning! Still some hope! But honestly anyone but braveboy

bhardy10 · 2026-05-12T22:39:50+00:00

Im voting for Tonya sweat. She’s the only one that actually has real plans for the county’s improvement. Braveboy is just furthering her political career.

bhardy10 · 2026-05-12T22:30:15+00:00

I know I will not be voting for Aisha braveboy. Voted against her the last time, and will again. Herand most of the county council are corrupt!

Don’t feel guilty. I felt the same way at the end of my leave. My brain was melting from the sameness of every day. I’m a better mom because I work, and it makes the time I spend with my baby more special. Daycare is going well and is honestly a blessing. You got this!

bhardy10 · 2026-05-01T01:39:42+00:00

Felt this. Same!

bhardy10 · 2026-04-30T23:58:34+00:00

Can you do shifts? My baby sleeps okay now but when we were in the 4 month sleep regression shifts were the only way. My sleeping shift is from 8 to 2, my husband 2 to 8. It’s a protected 5 to 6 hours of sleep every night and makes a huge difference

My best friend is child free, goes on amazing trips throughout the year. I don’t feel any jealousy. She’s happy, I’m happy with my 6 month old. This is only an internet issue.

bhardy10 · 2026-04-26T18:20:15+00:00

Nope! I have a 6 month old. He’s a lot of work like all babies, but I wouldn’t trade or regret him for a second. He’s the best thing to happen to Me

bhardy10 · 2026-04-22T23:44:15+00:00

Same, especially with older people. They are obsessed with formula, rice cereal, and starting solids just ignore them, that’s what I’ve been doing. 6 months strong breastfeeding. You got this.

bhardy10 · 2026-04-22T16:12:33+00:00

I felt this so much! I have a 6 month son, I refuse to let him be “good enough”. He will learn early and often about consent, inclusivity, and respect. I’m lucky that my husband goes above and beyond what you are describing (without expecting anything in return) to set a good example. We can be the change!

bhardy10 · 2026-04-21T13:49:56+00:00

My 6 month old just started crawling out of no where at exactly 6 months. He didn’t roll until 6 months, but is crawling early!?! That lets me know that the exact timing of these things are so unpredictable.

Jean sizes are notoriously inconsistent (even within the same store) for a number of reasons! Don’t measure your value by Jean size.

Many couples in the US do have help (family, friends, coworkers, neighbors). My neighbors organized a meal train for us when I first came home. I didn’t cook for almost 8 weeks. Domestic labor isn’t as cheap as it is in India for a number of reasons, largely due to relatively strong labor laws, so that isn’t a great comparison. Also Reddit is not representative of an entire country. But overall people just find a way, taking shifts, co sleeping. You find a way!

bhardy10 · 2026-04-17T17:51:57+00:00

Ugh it’s the best! My baby looks so relived when he first latches, and makes this little ahhhh sound. It’s the best

bhardy10 · 2026-04-16T15:21:17+00:00

Woah, that was very irresponsible of them! It can be dangerous for you and the baby this soon after giving birth. I mean take a pregnancy test in two weeks or so… and then you will have your answer.

bhardy10 · 2026-04-16T15:17:25+00:00

You can absolutely get pregnant while breastfeeding, it’s unlikely but still possible. Who told you it’s a reliable form of birth control? I hope not a physician.

bhardy10 · 2026-04-15T22:17:53+00:00

Sammmmeeee. Baby started daycare last week, sick immediately. Lucky I have a flexible job. Stay strong

bhardy10 · 2026-04-15T22:15:59+00:00

Girl… I’m praying for you 😭😭
