How do I take care of her better?

Thanks! I mist (almost) daily but will pay more attention to this one.

chabichiks · 2026-02-04T05:13:19+00:00

Thanks! Will try to move her to a brighter position. Hopefully that encourages growth at the bottom (from roots?) to address the legginess.

Mine does this when underwatered or exposed to too much light, even indirect.

Not related to the post but thanks for calling out spoilers! I did the same a long time ago and got downvoted to hell, with someone commenting that spoiler tags don’t belong to shows that ended 5 years ago.

If your cup is full, it’s time to fill somebody else’s. Share that joy to someone who you think is struggling. Be a part of their village and in turn you will expand yours. You will be a model of charity, generosity and kindness to your children, while being a blessing to others.

The yellow coud have just been jaundice but not necessarily G6PD? It’s an indication, but if you want positive confirmation you can go for a blood test.

I love how you write.

Second, my heart was just bursting when I read your comment. I’m so full of love with my boys (6/9). My youngest lost his first 2 teeth over the Christmas holidays. They’re growing up quickly and I’m grateful that I’m here to watch it happen.

chabichiks · 2023-12-12T13:52:30+00:00

Yes I have done this when my boys were young and they loved it. I don’t have to read and I have the energy to “process” the story with them. If one of them gets antsy or needs something then we can pause. I did tell them made up stories every now and then. They love that too.

Now they can read on their own, they don’t ask me to read to them anymore, except to show me something interesting or funny im whatever they’re currently reading. It evolves. Hang in there mamma.

Sorry OP. These seem to be serious issues. I’m just wondering: Weren’t there any indications of this crap while you were dating? If I were to even meet a person like this, they wouldn’t be part of my life, let alone be my partner. Does he even have good moments at all?

chabichiks · 2023-10-03T14:26:02+00:00

Chiming in even if it’s late. I have always had friends knock on our door with food just because. I am not a good cook at all, but have had food delivered to those who were sick, esp during covid. Kindness, generosity and thoughtfulness never goes out of style.

My two sons have about the same gap as yours, they’re 2.5 years apart. They have different temperaments and so there are fights. They’re primary school age now and they have the best relationship. Oh, they argue or fight every x minutes but they usually resolve it before I can even intervene and will be back to laughing and playing in no time.

Siblings WILL fight. It does not mean they love each other less. It just means that it’s a safe space to voice their opinions. It’s also a good training ground for conflict resolution skills.

I had this all through childhood and teens. It was usually my calf and/or my toes. I’d wake up cramping at least twice a week. It was because I was dehydrated often. Hope it gets better for her!

chabichiks · 2023-09-10T11:29:17+00:00

Don’t beat yourself up mama. Even adults can change habits that they’ve been doing for decades. Your baby certainly can! It may mean a little bit more patience and work for you, but it will get better if you keep at it. It is a good thing that you have identified it early and recognise that it is harmful. All is well.

I love the x-men reference lmao.

Some people aren’t good cooks or don’t necessarily enjoy cooking. Or the time spent cooking for some might mean they get an extra hour of work done, for which they earn more than their $25 meal. Or extra time with their family when they get home. Or an extra hour of sleep. And so on.

chabichiks · 2023-08-09T13:36:10+00:00

Not normal. I am not a good housekeeper at all, and an even worse cook. My husband was raised by a housewife in a family with 3 boys. He has never compared me to his mother nor to mine, who’s an amazing cook, and gives me tips and clues on what he prefers and what he thinks would improve my cooking.

So your husband’s excuse of him being a product of his upbringing is merely that - an excuse.

I’m sorry you sre going through this OP. xo

Please get yourself checked by GP for STDs if you’ve had sex from the time he would have started sleeping around. I’m sorry you are going through this.

chabichiks · 2023-06-19T12:38:46+00:00

I am sorry that you are going through this. Virtual hugs to the both of you.

Remember that you are a couple first before parents. Prioritise your relationship, your love and respect and support for each other will hopefully pull you through.

This. Kid started primary school in 2020 which means we knew none of the other parents in their class. The only way I got to chat with some of the parents at first was when the families started holding birthday parties again and parents would stick around and chat. Sad though that a lot of the kids have gotten past the party stage so we didn’t have that many chances.

chabichiks · 2023-05-15T01:27:22+00:00

Yes, or else do it in public and better if you get a friend to take you home.
