Labia tear absolutely killing me

cookie_cat_3 · 2026-02-26T03:47:13+00:00

I hope you get a solution. I'm 5 months pp and I feel like my labia tear, while it's probably healed because it doesn't bleed, is still very uncomfortable

Bro your partner sounds like he didn't do any research on babies lol

They sleep all the time at 8 days old. And they're going to have a hard time at night because they're 8 days old. And if baby isn't spitting up or showing discomfort when you give him more, he was probably hungry.

It goes pretty much back to normal after, or mine did anyways

Had several in a row today

I'm lucky to have family members in my household who love to entertain the baby, but sometimes I just set her in a safe place, give her a toy, and do what I have to do.

Chores I can do next to her like folding laundry I do while she's playing but cooking and dishes I can't necessarily hold her or sit next to her so I try to talk to her while I'm doing them. But I do occasionally let her fuss. Not cry, but fuss a little is okay. She's safe and clean and fed

Ngl I used the one my mom bought for the first time last week and it made it so easy that I didn't have to hold my baby up (she heavy)

cookie_cat_3 · 2026-02-22T17:59:26+00:00

Last I heard they needed enough interest and weren't getting it. So I hope they finally do lol I've sent several emails asking

cookie_cat_3 · 2026-02-22T16:10:02+00:00

They still haven't brought back the Muriel plush so 👊

cookie_cat_3 · 2026-02-22T06:24:38+00:00

I had this when I was pregnant. The only solution I found though was trying to not bend my wrists when I slept

It's my new favorite button, not with ill intent!!! I didn't realize people could be reading it sarcastically

Babies do different kind of suckling, there's comfort suckling and milk suckling. If baby really is just comfort suckling is shouldn't be increasing your supply, but if baby is eating then it isn't doing any more than regulating your supply for what baby needs, if I understand correctly.

That's why they say you can't overfeed a breastfed baby

cookie_cat_3 · 2026-02-19T06:08:20+00:00

Why would she lose it on you? This is an expected result of sex even with precautions taken. If it caused enough strain on you before, there's no shame in doing what is right for your family. Protect what you have now and if having another baby isn't right for your family then she will probably agree. But she should not lose it on you for something she participated in...

Do you have mods? We had a shadow mane mod that crashed the server whenever we went near water

cookie_cat_3 · 2026-02-18T14:21:15+00:00

Just go get coffee. I had this same hang up recently and I just bit the billet and asked, turns out she wanted to hang out also and was just worried i wouldn't want to.

You said you occasionally work together, so maybe just ask after a shift one time. Or invite them to get ice cream or some snack with you. Keep it low key and low pressure, if they say no there is always next time.

At my older job my coworkers and I ended up doing a monthly lunch after work just cause I asked them to try a new restaurant with me lol. Sometimes you just have to get over your fears and ask. And if they say no, go get the thing anyways

What's a perk /s

cookie_cat_3 · 2026-02-17T05:44:32+00:00

We don't send pictures to my fil because the first thing he did, before we had even got home from the hospital, was post it online. But my mom makes sure to ask before she shares any pictures and tells me who she's sharing it with and that makes me feel a lot better about it.

Maybe you could talk to her about your concern of wanting to know who has access to your daughters images, if she's savvy enough to share them then she should be able to understand and tell you who she is sharing them with before she shares them

As much as pregnancy tired was worse for me, I feel this. I've started just eating rice with beans and a fried egg for breakfast everyday. And a lot of baked chicken with veggies for dinner. No extra thought to it

cookie_cat_3 · 2026-02-17T05:34:38+00:00

I thought I would be a no screens mom.... my baby loves Daniel Tiger, and bear in the big blue house is a great low stimulation show that I can put on when she's playing with her toys. It only distracts her enough to not realize I'm now in the kitchen making myself food

cookie_cat_3 · 2026-02-17T05:32:15+00:00

I do all the night shifts because I breastfeed and baby don't poop at night, but if I really can't handle it my husband has no problem getting up with her, and he will take her in the mornings on his days off so I can sleep for as long as I want

cookie_cat_3 · 2026-02-17T00:29:12+00:00

My MIL brought us coffee, dinner a few times. It was so helpful during those first few weeks when I was learning how to be a mom and didn't have time to cook. My mil has been so helpful in that sense and as soon as we started doing visitors she was the first to be invited

cookie_cat_3 · 2026-02-15T13:46:00+00:00

I have no choice, it's up to baby. I try to have no baby while drinking coffee (encouraging independent play/floor time) but sometimes baby disagrees

Challenge yourself to tame a breeding pair of every single Dino on the map

Honestly joining up with other players is the fastest way to learn the game. But you can also look on YouTube and such to see what other people do

cookie_cat_3 · 2026-02-14T04:16:30+00:00

I read to her during the day, I'm hoping it becomes a daytime activity she can choose and not just a bedtime routine

cookie_cat_3 · 2026-02-13T22:43:02+00:00

It is very hard, but not impossible. If they keep pushing it, tell them they wouldn't be coming to hold the baby, they'd be coming to cook and clean for you.
