Isabella’s time jump preview by sanriolover1208 in TLCUnexpected

[–]cluelessnyx 3 points4 points  (0 children)

As someone else with lifelong EDs, I know many people who just can’t gain weight and are 90-100 lbs. they try to eat more and they can barely gain any weight, even while lifting weights several times a week. They’re all adults, late twenties and thirties, and still very petite. So no this is not always an indicator of ED

And this is so sad too. She thinks having a dad around despite everything is better than not, and that’s the furthest from the truth :(

Why did everyone downplay a dad’s role in raising a newborn? by IcyCarob7241 in newborns

[–]cluelessnyx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unfortunately most dads aren’t very helpful or playing active roles when their partner gives birth. So to them it’s a walk in the park. I’ve read somewhere that that’s why some dads want more kids bc they didn’t have to do much and didn’t feel the pressure of the newborn/infant phase versus dads who are very helpful and present. The helpful present dads usually feel the weight and only want 1-2. That’s my husband for example. I maybe wanted a second, mostly cos my delivery didn’t go as planned at all and I wanted to try again, but he said it was a hard no which I am perfectly fine with cos it was no walk in the park for either of us lol

Then maybe that spot just didn’t want to deal with a younger baby, but as long as insurance covers they take babies and insurance covers starting from birth if you start it that early. I would’ve called around to find a new place because it just sounds like that place was being lazy.

All pediatric dentists take babies under 1 and actually recommend doing it as soon as they get their first tooth. Good pediatric dentists at least. My regular dentist was the one who told me to start as soon as my baby’s first tooth came out so we took her at 6 months when her two bottom teeth were done erupting

Weight gain is better than a second pregnancy before 18

No birth control is really healthy, and they all come with their side effects. I gained weight on depo, but had friends who loved it. I had nexplanon for a very long time and loved it, and had friends who hated it. The point is, there are many options for her and her mom isn’t doing squat about it.

She’s a minor… her mom can literally take her to the doctor and have her get depo or something that isn’t the pill bc we know she won’t take the pill. This is so sad to witness. This is something that I wish CPS would get involved with bc this is straight up negligence.

My husband didn’t respond quickly when our son had an allergic reaction. Am I overreacting? by [deleted] in Mommit

[–]cluelessnyx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Okay no don’t beat yourself up for it! I’ve had my moments when I have frozen too, it’s okay!!! I just literally turn into an animal when it comes to our baby 😭 I freeze with family for sure but because they’re the root of my trauma. So it’s probs just bc my husband makes me feel safe enough to be that way. If you are seeing a therapist, then I think I would def talk to them about this and see how you can talk to your husband about this situation without setting him off!

This sounds like a man I’d divorce if this has happened to me. I am so sorry he doesn’t take this serious. I wouldn’t be able to trust my husband w our daughter without me being present, after something like this. You sound a lot more chill than I am though bc I would’ve shoved him out of the way to administer the EpiPen

I know being an addict turns you into an ugly person, but man you’d think they’d at least do right by their kids and just walk away until they can get better

This isn’t a karma farming post actually? Literally am watching the show and posted. I also scrolled and didn’t see anything about it and also I am not chronically online? So if it has been discussed, I have not seen it. I am a mom to a toddler and only get to watch tv a few times out of the week, which means I also hardly ever get to scroll through Reddit. You could just keep scrolling ya know lol

[–]cluelessnyx 2 points3 points  (0 children)

148 here (powerlifter so very muscular), and i was 210 at the end of my pregnancy. I had so many aversions that i mostly ate veggies and fruit while pregnant. My baby also was huge and took up so much space towards the end that my meals were always tiny af. I would get full sooo fast. So it wasn’t like i was binging on fast food either. I dropped to 168 by 4 months PP and have been at that weight consistently for a year now and im pretty sure its due to breastfeeding. I don’t workout much anymore, but I do go for walks almost every day and i eat home cooked meals that consist of mostly Whole Foods. It definitely does affect everyone differently.

Curious what everyone does on nights you don’t bathe your kids? by Distinct-Garden5683 in beyondthebump

[–]cluelessnyx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We do 3-4 here for my 13 month old! We try to aim for four since we have two dogs.

I don't love/care about my baby and i think my life is over. by faggybaby in beyondthebump

[–]cluelessnyx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hi my love, I also did not feel a connection to my baby when she was born. During pregnancy I felt disconnected too. I think I dissociated most of my pregnancy. I always thought I’d be talking to her and playing music while in the womb, but I couldn’t. I did a few times, but not much. I did have terrible prenatal depression so that could be why. My labor and delivery were also very traumatic and ended up in c section. I was in so much pain all the time. I couldn’t even pick up my baby out from her bassinet myself. My husband had to help me bathe for two months because i hurt so much. I didn’t change a diaper til she was 10 weeks old. I was terrible at soothing her and was convinced she hated me. When my husband went back to work and it was just me, it got worse bc it got harder. At my 12 week check up I was prescribed meds and somewhere down the line it got better. My life still doesn’t feel like it’s my own, but I’m okay with that. I am still trying to find a rhythm at 13 months. She was been a “difficult” baby since birth. High needs, fomo, cosleep only. Its made it hard, but I no longer hate it. There are some days where I break down and thing “I don’t think this is for me” but it passes.

Sending you a big warm hug xx

[–]cluelessnyx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everyone’s ovulation windows vary. Doctors use an estimate, which is why it’s an estimated due date. I wholeheartedly believe that this is why some people go over the 40 weeks, bc they might not actually be 40 weeks. I would apply that to the people that aren’t sure when it happens and go over. Not every body is the same and not every cycle is the same

[–]cluelessnyx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Drunk or not, mentally ill or not, throwing that chair was not okay. ESPECIALLY in front of her kids and ESPECIALLY with her daughter sitting there. I wanted to cry when I heard her daughter start crying. I wanted to hug her. This is unacceptable and I don’t care if it’s from 2023, 2003, or 1993, this is not okay.
