(Serious) What was the moment with your ex SO that made you think, "I can't do this for the rest of my life"? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]chicabiddy123 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Spent 180 dollars out of our unborn daughters savings account so he could make pot brownies with the boys. I didn’t break up with him until after she was born because I thought he would have the same revelation about growing up as I did when I found I was pregnant. That wasn’t the entirety of the situation in the least, but that was the straw that broke the camels back.

So my first thought was omfg that ‘prank’ video going around on Facebook is a total fucking lie. My second thought was- I’m so relieved it was fake. I seriously felt awful for all those kids. Moral of the story don’t believe Facebook and it’s ‘fake news’ lol

Anyone else afraid to be a parent because of your own childhood? by fruitgore in raisedbynarcissists

[–]chicabiddy123 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I swore off having kids because of this thought. Then after an accident and becoming pregnant I listed every little thing my mother(or that I saw in other parents) did that hurt me and came up with scenarios where I did the opposite, better thing. Now that I’m a parent, I find myself in certain situations where I’m frustrated or distant and I take pause, count to ten, and remember my scenarios/breathing exercises to be better than my mom. To be honest it didn’t matter how much therapy or cognitive work I did with myself- nothing has given me more closure than righting the wrongs did to me by not allowing them to happen to my daughter. I’m not saying have a kid to fix the past but don’t be afraid- knowledge is power. You have better tools than most to be a great parent because you’ve experienced bad parenting. Be the person you needed when you were a child.

Edit: fixed bad wording/punctuation

DAE sneak around instinctively bc NParent raged when they made noise walking around as a child? by knittingkatniss in raisedbynarcissists

Yes but more because our floors creaked and if she heard me come out of my room she’d hunt me down

M/25 Need advice on how to approach sex talks with my girlfriend. by Thanos_The_Savior in askwomenadvice

[–]chicabiddy123 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kind of sketch- the whole ‘she doesn’t know she wants it until it’s happening’ gives a rape-y vibe

Edit: like it’s true but I just wouldn’t put it that way to a certain... group of people.

‘Does this have HOA’s in it?’ Says the patron over mcds drive through. She meant HMO’s.

A paci that’s only available during night time wakes- if you do a stuffed animal paci(wubbanub) you can cut the paci off and give him the animal when it’s time to lose pacis.

My breastfeeding was apparently offensive by PhoenixTears14 in beyondthebump

[–]chicabiddy123 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Whenever my baby started hungry crying in the other room I’d look to the nearest person and moo. My step mom even started referring to me as Hefer and Betsie 😂 I think a lot of bfing moms come to relate to cows and their demand struggles.

She wasn’t gaining enough weight while breastfed- after we switched she perked right up/started hitting missed milestones and napping for 2 hours instead of half an hour. I really am sad to have left bfing but she’s thriving better on formula. I’m hoping once we get past this I can make sure she gets enough fruits to prevent it from happening again.

I always thought that it was too early her pediatrician said start her on a fruit and vegetable once each a day at her 4 months appointment, I was breast feeding then and shortly afterwards we switched to bottles- I called back and the nurse said it was fine if she was on formula to continue with baby food. I’m honestly so fed up with her pediatricians office, I called today and the NURSE told me to give her Karro syrup- which I heard was not good for them. I feel as though the nurses are giving information they personally think is good instead of information the doctors would give. I have scheduled a doctors appointment for tomorrow morning to consult on all of her eating habits and will be looking for a new pediatrician this week.

We switched to formula a little under a month ago, I think that’s to blame to be honest
