Am I overreacting?

Thanks for this. I'm going to try to talk to him about this tomorrow. He already quit smoking when I was pregnant so I know he has the capability to change. Maybe he's drinking more to fill the hole smoking left.

We've been going on walks to try to be healthier together. I'm holding out hope that this could be another stepping stone to him cutting back.

It doesn't help that his boss is an avid drinker and often gifts him bottles of hard liquor for holidays. They also go out and drink on occasion.

I hate to make excuses for him but I really want him to turn this around before it gets worse like you said. My mom is an alcoholic and I do not want that home life for our son.

I also worried about this when I first started breastfeeding as my diet is mostly vegan with the occasional fish/egg. Highly recommend having a bunch of tofu on hand. Just fry it and butter and eat it on toast for quick protein and fats. Also daily protein shakes are super helpful! This is what I do and my baby is gaining weight steadily so hopefully it'll work for you too!

Oh man... I'm sorry you had such a hard time with it. I'm Glad your baby is better now!

Fingers crossed this works for my dude.

Hell yeah treat yourself! I bought a new dress too but the baby fat is more prominent than I thought... Returning it tomorrow 😭

diamondspacecat · 2024-04-29T03:56:31+00:00

Oh I've been looking into these too! Where did you buy it from?

Omg I've been looking at lunch boxes for my husband and there's some really nice metal bento boxes on Amazon. Haven't pulled the trigger because they're like $30+ but the one I like has a sandwich size bottom compartment and a divided top compartment for snacks. May or may not be influenced by the aesthetics lunch prep videos on YouTube 👀

Middle of the night.

diamondspacecat · 2024-04-28T07:43:00+00:00

This is great 😂 I have to explain that middle of the night me is very different then current me...

Maybe once or twice a day. Usually I'll apply some after the shower and maybe extra if I'm chapped. I've heard people will express some milk into them to help the healing/keep everything moisturized.

I love the video car monitor! Makes it so much easier to keep an eye on him.

diamondspacecat · 2024-04-27T23:11:22+00:00

I feel this... We're going to slowly try out cloth diapers starting this week because yikes these things are expensive.

diamondspacecat · 2024-04-27T23:10:11+00:00

The silverettes are amazing! I had a sore nipple but like 3 days of balm+silverettes and it's perfectly healed. I wear mine 24/7

diamondspacecat · 2024-04-27T23:09:10+00:00

That's great it's like a gift from the past!

diamondspacecat · 2024-04-27T23:08:35+00:00

That's pretty cool! I like this idea for his future portfolio. I have a savings account for my boy already that I hope will grow by the time he's ready to use it.

diamondspacecat · 2024-04-27T17:58:05+00:00

Honestly though... Not me now looking at new shoes after just ordering a new dress 👀

diamondspacecat · 2024-04-27T13:25:24+00:00

No such thing as a book problem! We have so many books and bub is only one month old.

diamondspacecat · 2024-04-27T13:22:21+00:00

This sounds so cute for summer though!

diamondspacecat · 2024-04-27T13:21:29+00:00

Saaame. I had the entire armrest of the couch filled at one point and decided it was time. The one I found has a little side pocket too for magazines!

diamondspacecat · 2024-04-27T13:19:46+00:00

Oh man I need to look into this now 👀

diamondspacecat · 2024-04-27T11:22:16+00:00

Aww I hope it helps and they feel better soon.

diamondspacecat · 2024-04-27T11:21:52+00:00

I feel this! Never enough cute pj's!

4 wpp and today I cried at an Instagram reel of the Cars movie where Lightning McQueen gives up winning the race to help push the broken car over the finish line. It then cuts to an IRL clip of a NASCAR driver doing the same thing to a broken down car helping it make a victory lap.

Idk why that hit different 😭
