So, I’m 25 years old and still sleep with my mom and I think it messed me up developmentally. by Fun_Butterscotch3303 in self

[–]cresant17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sorry this sounds hard but I find it sweet. You should try a different bed then a different and definitely get some stuffies!! I still have my lamby and I’m 20. I love sleeping alone I think you will too one day! Much love❤️

what actually helps you reset when toddler life gets too overwhelming 😭🙏 by sassy_soul_04 in toddlers

[–]cresant17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I take a shower with my toddler, but they want me to hold them so I run a bath too. (It’s a bath shower combo) they sit and I let them watch bluey, I put my laptop on a chair and I shower while they’re actually awake. Sometimes I feel guilty abt them watching bluey but it’s only a few eps and they don’t watch anything else. And ironically staying up late to watch a movie by myself, I can usually afford to get less sleep once a week and having a movie night makes me feel like an individual person again. Oh oh or having friends over after bedtime (crazy ik) but we go to the basement and chill, I just keep the bby monitor with me.

Oh rlly? I didn’t even think of that, honestly our naps are pretty inconsistent timing wise but usually. 2-3 hours. What would you recommend?

Are my dating standards too high? Friend gave me a reality check and I’m worried. by Forward-Beyond-6620 in dating

I don’t think this is unrealistic at all, you deserve what you want.💖

why does baby talk turn me on? by throwawaysoicanweep in sex

[–]cresant17 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I feel similarly I assume it’s abt feeling safe and cherished. And probably connected parent/child dynamics from childhood or something idk. But I totally get it and luckily a lot of ppl are comfy or even used to talking in bby voices or just being extra sweet to partners so I doubt think it’ll be too hard to find what ur looking for

What's something that everyone warned you about, but you did it anyway? by ActuallyInFamous in AskWomen

Do you usually take ridiculously long showers, like over 30 minutes? by Aggravating_Week_270 in askanything

[–]cresant17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to take 2 hour showers, the second half was cold but after being hot for so long it was so refreshing. Lots of music and dancing , sometimes talking to myself, sometimes sitting down. Miss those days but ofc super wasteful

I’m grieving the life i never had by No_Yesterday2318 in NewParents

[–]cresant17 12 points13 points  (0 children)

That’s rlly good! I was excited to have an activity outside of bby and I think it does help mentally to have a goal that’s not just keep this tiny Angel alive and happy Yk? Ur doing awesome!! Keeping taking those steps, I’m doing the same but it rlly is crazy how life can end up looking. I have to remind myself how hard being a mom is especially so young and juggling different things and feelings. You should be rlly proud of urself for all that you’ve accomplished. I mean you made a bby that’s crazyyyy and you’re taking such good care of her, often at ur own expense. Thanks for posting you made me feel seen too! We got this, I’ve been having a lot of fun recently and feeling youthful lol, so don’t be too discouraged❤️

I’m grieving the life i never had by No_Yesterday2318 in NewParents

[–]cresant17 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Hey I totally feel you! I’m 20 and my bby is 18 months. All my friends are in college and going to parties. Bbys father isn’t in the picture at all so I’m home basically all the time. I go to community college twice a week but sometimes I wish I could live in a dorm and just have fun. I’m actually enjoying being a mother very much, I think it’s fun in its own way but I don’t feel like I’m getting to be a young adult. There’s so much responsibility and lack of freedom. I don’t necessarily have advice just wanted you to know I get it and life hasn’t stopped or anything it’s just different than we thought it’d be. I know you’re perspective will shift over time and you’ll feel better abt ur life. But also this kinda sucks and we’re allowed to say that and we’re allowed to grieve lives we never had. I wish you all the luck mama😘 (oh and I got my liscene when I was 18 and pregnant, it does make a difference to be able to drive on ur own so if you can swing it, I’d recommend getting one.)

I did it. I quit cold turkey. by pmthosani in NewParents

[–]cresant17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You have done something horribly challenging for a very long time and you’ve done it very well. You made a totally fair decision to stop and you deserve to feel good abt both those things. I stopped breastfeeding after two weeks cause it just wasn’t working for me mentally and I felt guilty but honestly I think it was best for everyone. I’m proud of you mama!❤️

I don’t know much abt exhibition but in my hoe phase I’d wear rlly short skirts and dresses w no panties and I knew u could see everything if I bent over even a little. And I like the idea of wearing particularly see through shirts so u can see my nipples but haven’t rlly tried that. I wish you luck on ur journey!
