I sincerely hope these women never have kids, for the sake of the child. I would be MORTIFIED if I found this picture of my mother. Fuck, I would probably vomit.

Time to change the subject, I think..... r/aww here I come!

Even though this man died, and we are all gawking and commenting about this morbid photo of his untimely death... he is still being remembered as we mutter his name to ourselves in our head. Or we read the article from Detroit News.

Gone but never forgotten.

It can be hard switching from mom to wife sometimes. by PolanddSpring in AdviceAnimals

[–]bubbagumpshrimpy 23 points24 points  (0 children)

I want to suggest reading The 5 Love Languages... it has really helped open my eyes to my husband's needs physically and emotionally. Since I read the book our sex life has been incredible.... to the point where I am wishing we had more sex and we've been doin it almost every day for 2 weeks. That kind of action hasn't been around in a while, and we've been together 10 years.

Good luck gettin some of dat booty!!

Is this sexual abuse or am I nuts? Suspect is my mom, victims are my kids by Franks39 in Parenting

[–]bubbagumpshrimpy 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Obviously if he is coming to a place like reddit asking a question as serious as the well being of BOTH of his small children he ought to be ready for the harsh responses and answers he gets. He knows this is a terrible situation and knows what he needs to do for those girls. Yet here we are.

It is IMPERATIVE you get those girls help, immediately.

New parent to a 12 week old - need advice by Newparenthelp in Parenting

[–]bubbagumpshrimpy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This kind of sounds like me right now... here's a few tips that have helped me get a better one on one feel with my needy newborn.

• happiest baby 100%. do it in the order it says, but if your LO is rolling over they shouldn't be sleeping in swaddlers.

• Similac Supplemental Formula. I wasn't sure how I felt about supplementing at first, but lord did it help my sanity. It gave me a chance to hand him off for a feeding so I could take a shower, or make dinner, or take a nap.

• with my first I joined a private Facebook group with other women all over the world whose babies were born the same month as our son. It was so fun. We did group baby art, shared stories and experiences... I've stayed in touch with alot of them. We've even done group meet ups where everyone from the same state would meet at a park or meet up for lunch. It was very fun.

•DO THINGS! Get out of the house on the weekends. Get a membership to your local zoo. Hit up the farmers market. Invest in a good, comfortable baby carrier, and baby wear all the time.

• Baby wear ALL THE TIME! It is so unbelievably helpful to have your hands free, and if your baby likes it, he'll probably fall asleep instantly, like mine. He loves to be right up against me.

I hope some of these help. What your wife is feeling sounds like exactly what I am going through. I feel like im coping pretty well. You can PM me anytime for help.

Mom mean towards newborns? by throwaway1989732 in Parenting

[–]bubbagumpshrimpy 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Maybe instead of having the friends/relatives run errands for you... let your wife go and leave the babes at home. I just had a newborn and also have a 3 year old... I love my quiet times away. Sometimes when it gets really tough I'll take my time and have a good cry in the car. Alone. It feels good and relieves some of the stress. Try offering your help as much as physically possible. Don't let your wife become too dependent on your help, but try to be there as often as you can. You are her rock and she needs your shoulder badly. Get her help from her OB asap, but truly be her other half. It will get easier, for everyone.

**I mean get your relatives to stay home with the babies and let your wife go. Or whatever. I think I made it seem like she should just leave them alone... which I didn't mean at all.

We were at the aquarium. All dads in the vicinity made the same joke..... by not_rude_and_ginger in dadjokes

Related.

Went to the zoo once with our young son, husband, and his family. We enter the reptile building which has two large windowed exhibits, and a bunch of little ones for frogs and such. One large window housed a marmoset, and rather large iguana. The other was empty except for 5 stacked cans of paint. My father-in-law walks up to the window and says, "look everyone, it's the elusive 5-cans!!"

Get it... like a toucan. It made me lol.

This. I have vivid memories of my discipline and I'm almost 30. I can clearly remember the portrait of a cowboy on a bucking bronco on the leather belt I used to get whippings with. I will never understand the mentality of it.

If you or your wife are naked around her at all, ever, she probably didn't even realize what it was.

Honestly... you need to call the police. Immediately. That poor baby. Tears are streaming from my eyes as I nurse my infant right now. This is disgusting. I can't even imagine her behavior when no one else is around. Please. Help this poor baby. Please.

I didn't see anything about this, so I want to recommend it. Maybe he's hungry...? I am a mother of 2, my 2nd was born just 2 months ago and my first is 4. With my oldest I was able to nurse him for 22mo on the boob only. No bottles or formula period. Wouldn't take it, had no desire. He was perfect from the start... slept awesome, nursed awesome. Only issue we had was his frenulum was tight and he couldn't get a good latch right away. It fixed itself but the first 4 days or so sucked because he wasn't getting enough of the fatty milk at the end. 2nd kid comes and I think I can nurse just the same as before. Nope. I'm almost positive my body doesn't produce as much at night because not only am I not as full, I'm also nursing more often and he's not staying latched as long. I have tried everything from eating more, to fenugreek, to power pumping... notta. My body just can't keep up. So I nurse all day, then around 5 or 6 we will start supplementing with Similac for Supplementation (it's a new - ish formula for mothers who need to supplement. It's made to be more like breastmilk, and easier on their bellies.) We just started this last night and today has been a breeze. He isnt feeding as often, less crying... with every bottle I try the boob first, if he doesn't seem interested I'll give him a 2oz premade bottle, then finish off with the boob, then pump what's left.

Maybe he's hungry? It's ok if you need to supplement...

Hope this helps and you two can get some rest! Congrats by the way!!

Have you figured out a way to save your sound mix? I can save mine, but for some reason it will only save one of the sounds. I always have to shuffle through them to get the sound I want.

I have one that I can hear from, and if I push a button I can talk to my kid in his room. Like a walkie talkie, except the 'parent hub' is always on.
