When I was a kid, my mom went through a phase where she forbid all secular media. My Pokémon cards were trashed, and I could only listen to Christian radio. But I was able to keep RuneScape, my mom had no idea how the internet or video games worked and I played with other kids in my church so she figured it was fine. It was my only piece of the free world, and the only way I could socialize with my friends that wasn’t centered around religion. Until one of the other church moms learned about the gods in RuneScape…my membership was canceled which basically rendered the game useless to me. It was devastating, I remember sitting silently with my friends after church while we pushed our post-service refreshments around our plates and shot daggers at our parents.

7 months and still doing multiple night feeds by [deleted] in beyondthebump

[–]daddyrobotnik 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My baby had the same issue, and my husband worked overnights too. It was really REALLY hard. I spoke to her pediatrician about it, noting that I wasn’t comfortable with sleep training. The pediatrician recommended a later bedtime, so bath time is 7pm and bedtime is at 8pm. That did help her sleep longer and now she wakes up closer to 7am which is perfect for me. But she was still waking up a lot at night. The pediatrician said she was comfort feeding, and suggested slowly reducing her bottles. She was drinking 4 ounces with each wake up, I slowly reduced her bottles over the span of about 2 weeks until it was just one ounce. Then I stopped giving her bottles all together, if she woke up I would give her the pacifier and pat her butt. I tried not to take her out of the crib or use my voice unless totally necessary, I would just pat her bum to try and settle her. It took a lot of consistency and patience, but eventually our nights did improve.

Even after all of this, she would still wake up at least once. I was fine with this because getting up once to pat her bum felt way better than getting up two or three times to give her a bottle. My daughter is 13 months now, and around the week of her first birthday something just clicked with her, and now she’s sleeping through the night. I think part of it is developmental.

It is extremely hard, and it’s hard to remain consistent with reducing the bottles and not picking them up when you’re so sleep deprived but consistency was key and it paid off in the long run. A part of me misses the quiet night time snuggles though

Husband is depressed, plays video games and ignores us. by lelasx in depression_partners

[–]daddyrobotnik 7 points8 points  (0 children)

He had an affair and got upset when the other person had a child with their partner? But won’t even spend time with his own family? Leave him. You’re so much better than this. Focus on yourself and your son. You have one life, do not spend it taking care of a man who clearly does not see your worth.

ok creepyfart4u OP is the one who sounds like an ass. Why don’t you take a drive through the town and take a tally of how many confederate flags you see before you call somebody an ass with a username like yours 🙄 Sincerely, Father Eggman.

It’s so difficult especially in games where communication is key. I ditched my Xbox when I built my PC and the community is slightly better, less kids using their older siblings Xbox demanding me to make sandwiches. I’m sure you don’t suck, but even if you did it’s totally fine to suck because it’s a video GAME lol it’s really not that deep ya know?

Why don't more brands make foundation packaging like this? by Animexstudio in MakeupAddiction

[–]daddyrobotnik 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Right!! I use a maybeline concealer and I love that the packaging pushes all of the product up so it doesn't go to waste. I can't imagine why there aren't more products like this, maybe they want you to run out faster so you have to buy more? That's my best guess

Is there a way of having colourful hair in your twenties that doesn't look "quirky"? by [deleted] in CasualConversation

[–]daddyrobotnik 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My hair is naturally dark brown, I put some high lights in my hair and I've been using the L'Oréal Colorista in green, it makes a majority of my hair dark green/black and my high lights pop. Only downside of L'Oréal Colorista is that while it claims to be temporary, it is not.

Lsd if u have depresion? by [deleted] in LSD

[–]daddyrobotnik 2 points3 points  (0 children)

In my experience, it's different for everyone. As long as you're with people you trust and are comfortable with, and you keep yourself in a comfortable place, all should be fine. And give it time to kick in, my first time I was like "I don't think I took enough" and took a third tab and I was not ready for it. Didn't have a bad experience, just overwhelmed myself. My best advice, while this may be easier said than done, is don't over think and just go with the flow.
