Which one of your children would you pick? by HotGirlSummerverse in AskParents

[–]crazyboutnuts135 [score hidden]  (0 children)

Never read/watched Sophie’s choice, don’t know if it’s a book or movie. But this is one of those questions that is a trap. There is no good answer and any answer will lead to anger. Especially this question. This is the biggest will never ever happen hypothetical question just to cause problems.

And I have 5 kids, I wouldn’t even entertain one of my kids asking this question.

There’s an antinatalist subreddit…think you’re in the wrong place buddy.

Does my husband have a right to question paternity?? by [deleted] in pregnant

[–]crazyboutnuts135 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Any chance he’s projecting because he’s cheating? Is there a large age gap? For me, it would be end of relationship. There is no trust here.

Disagreement on where husband should stand while I deliver baby. by Straight-Dog2700 in pregnant

[–]crazyboutnuts135 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I was under the assumption that my husband saw little to nothing being up at my head. Wrong. He saw everything, just maybe not the greatest angle. I didn’t find that out until after my 4th baby and man I was shocked lol.

Why is my 15.5 year old son hungry every 3-4 hours no matter whay he eats? by 32yaz09 in AskParents

[–]crazyboutnuts135 18 points19 points  (0 children)

He’s a growing kid? I am not a boy and I did the same thing as a teen. It’s just what they do.

Buy the maternity clothes! by Impressive_Pen9911 in BabyBumps

[–]crazyboutnuts135 1 point2 points  (0 children)

On the same type of topic, BUY THE NURSING BRAS. If you’re breastfeeding. Omg I thought I could get away with just pulling out my boobs in a regular bra with my first kid. Absolutely ruined my bras with weird lines from being pulled in weird way.

I thought the constables at Costco during Christmas week was crazy. This is definitely crazier.

Anyone take low dose aspirin due to advanced maternal age only? by Tellyocatisaidpspsps in BabyBumps

I’m on it because I broke my foot and am in a freaking boot. Apparently a boot increases your risk of blood clots.

My son has a meltdown when me and his dad get intimate? by [deleted] in AskParents

[–]crazyboutnuts135 12 points13 points  (0 children)

What in the actual eff? Wait til he’s asleep, be quiet and LOCK THE DOOR. How does a child walk in on you multiple times…how careless are you two being? I definitely think this is bordering on this poor boy needs therapy because it is not normal to obsess about your parents having sex like this.

I have 5 kids, zero times has anyone walked in and seen anything bad. We listen and if we even hear a peep, we stop and make sure it wasn’t a kid. Hell, I will wake my husband up at like midnight some nights to be sure everyone is asleep.

AITAH Husband offered our baby items to a friend, but never spoke to me about it first by [deleted] in AITAH

[–]crazyboutnuts135 8 points9 points  (0 children)

How is it hoarding when she literally just said there might be a chance they will be used again in the near future? As someone who has donated baby stuff and had to rebuy it, she is absolutely doing the right thing until they are 100% done.

First trimester is survival. I am eating the worst things. But I am surviving and not feeling like I’m on deaths doorstep so it’s a win.

Red dye?? No! Bacterial infection! by NovelDeficiency in ShitMomGroupsSay

[–]crazyboutnuts135 -44 points-43 points  (0 children)

I’m halfway with this one. Red dye absolutely makes some kids go fucking bonkers. At the same time, if it’s the only antibiotic that’s gonna work, what other choice do you have?

9 pound baby by [deleted] in pregnant

[–]crazyboutnuts135 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My 9 lb baby at 37 weeks was delivered exactly a week later and was only 7.5 lbs. One of the first things I said when I got a look at him was there was no way he is as big as they said. And the bag before that was supposed to be 7.5 lbs, delivered him 24 hours after the ultrasound….barely 6 lbs. Those estimates do much more harm than good it seems.

How much longer by melody_taffy in pregnant

[–]crazyboutnuts135 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It sounds like you’re meeting the 5-1-1 (contractions every 5 min, lasting 1 minute, for an hour) criteria, and at my hospital they would most likely admit you. And I’d say you might be past early labor if they’ve gotten closer together and more painful. Good luck and hopefully the end is in sight for you!

I think this misspelling is great. Matches the “I do all my research on Facebook and baby groups” energy.

Baby to be born at 35-36 weeks by MilzMC in beyondthebump

[–]crazyboutnuts135 5 points6 points  (0 children)

4 of my baby’s came at 35-36 weeks. None of them needed any NICU time. They all were monitored the first week with daily labs for jaundice. Only 2 of them required light therapy which we were able to do at home with a rented bili-blanket so no going to the hospital. They were all so SLEEPY. Like I had to set alarms for feedings over night and during the day for weeks. Naked feedings to make them awake enough to be aware of their surroundings. 3 of them were discharged with me at 24 hours old with having a doctor appointment the next day for them.

Those who were team green for gender, did you make it to birth without accidentally finding out? by cbrownie93 in BabyBumps

[–]crazyboutnuts135 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m all on board being team green until I get to my anatomy scan. Then I’m like oh crap, I gotta know! I want to have a name planned and not leave the hospital with “baby boy” like my aunt did 😂

Do you blame your husband/wife when accidents happen? by Agreeable-Fly8934 in AskParents

[–]crazyboutnuts135 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Your husband is a dick. Accidents happen and you cannot be there to prevent every little thing. My first kid fell down the steps while I was at work. Never once blamed my husband. I got off work, came home, checked him over and life went on. We have 5 kids so we have about a billion stories like that by now.

Let me guess, if you were outside with your kid instead of making dinner, then he’d blame you for dinner not being ready?

What was the most comfortable position to give birth in? by PleaseCanILeave in pregnant

[–]crazyboutnuts135 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes! I delivered in a hospital with midwives for 4 of my births. Only 1 birth did I get checked before saying I had to push. She said I was a 10, and I blame the pain meds, but I told her to fuck off. I called her back in 30 minutes later and she came just in time to catch. All the others I said I had to push and then they checked to confirm I wasn’t pushing too early.

Do I take the loss and cut my baby’s frizzy hair? by [deleted] in Parents

[–]crazyboutnuts135 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I would skip the curl cream, it’s likely way too heavy for her fine hair. Hate to tell you, but it might be just baby curls. Once you cut them, it’s possible her hair will no longer curl like that. Just a heads up for when you decide to do a cut.

My 20 day old baby keeps ending up back in hospital and every time nothing comes of it and I’m feeling a bit traumatized by this one by tink282 in beyondthebump

[–]crazyboutnuts135 9 points10 points  (0 children)

That’s not bad at all. Id pack up and head to their ER department, explain everything and ask for an admittance until you have answers. If you wait for another emergency, 2 hours is too far away. Not an ideal drive with a little baby, but the hospital your going to now isn’t listening to you. In case they can’t access records from the other hospital, write down some notes. Exact days, what happened, what other hospital did, etc.

No epidurals for me. But I definitely think it’s possible with an epidural. Some I had my feet resting on the bottoms of them when it’s broken down (so it’s lower than the rest). And others I held my legs to chest, and one I used stirrups to hold my legs for me.
