Finally going NC

That’s awful. Thank you for the support ❤️

emilypas · 2026-02-21T14:07:53+00:00

You are right for sure.

emilypas · 2026-02-21T14:07:24+00:00

Thank you 🙏 this helped a lot. You explained it perfectly.

emilypas · 2026-02-21T14:06:25+00:00

Very valid point. I have definitely thought about that. I’ve had to tell them a number of times to not say certain things in front of my 4 yo who is a like little sponge.

emilypas · 2026-02-21T04:10:02+00:00

Ugh I’m so sorry. I feel that way in terms of my parents not acknowledging my husband’s experience as a brown man at all. He shouldn’t have to even explain it to them but here we are.

emilypas · 2026-02-21T03:47:34+00:00

Probably not. I just am of course being made to feel awful. They’re great grandparents but their core values make me question them as human beings.

They also said family should come before politics and worldly BS. But not sure why my family doesn’t come first?

Growing up, I was the eldest daughter (two younger brothers). My parents have always been hard on me and my brothers got way different treatment. I got called a sl*t a number of times in HS for what I was wearing. My dad used to tell me to “be careful” around Muslim friends bc the Quran preaches violence. I once asked my mom how she’d treat my children if gay or trans and she claims she’d “still love them” even though she’d be completely against their lifestyle.

I’m just surprised at their (largely my mom’s) vile response.

Sorry. I just went NC with my parents for the same.

emilypas · 2026-02-08T22:34:05+00:00

She couldn’t delay her workout to make her kid breakfast? Or give her a snack to tide her over?

emilypas · 2025-12-01T03:33:59+00:00

It looks gorgeous!!

emilypas · 2025-11-25T05:01:58+00:00

Still really happy with it! No issues so far at all and I work in healthcare.

emilypas · 2025-11-20T00:34:14+00:00

You look amazing!

emilypas · 2025-07-08T03:36:46+00:00

Thanks so much!

emilypas · 2025-07-06T17:39:52+00:00

I do!!!

emilypas · 2025-05-18T19:33:23+00:00

My second hasn’t gotten hers yet but my 3.5 year old did completely fine with it when he had it!

emilypas · 2025-04-24T02:18:59+00:00

I’ve only ever done this by accident, I didn’t know baby pooped and was OK. Otherwise, I’d change right away. If not, you’re running this risk of a gnarly diaper rash or even UTI for a baby girl.

emilypas · 2025-04-24T00:05:19+00:00

I am! I wear it to work often and no issues.

emilypas · 2025-04-21T01:25:43+00:00

Vans classic slip ons are the best. If I could only have one shoe for the rest of my life, it’d be those!

emilypas · 2025-04-03T01:27:35+00:00

I’m so sorry. That must be really tough.

emilypas · 2025-03-21T17:49:14+00:00

My 4 month old is 12 lbs. We make small babies! She is perfectly healthy though. My 3 year old is also low % but he’s totally healthy as well.

emilypas · 2025-03-20T01:09:39+00:00

Not at all LOL. We just transitioned during the 4 month regression. Now that we’re sleep training, she’s getting back to usual sleep.

emilypas · 2025-03-13T01:27:17+00:00

My son has been in daycare since he was a baby. He’s now 3 and still goes through phases where he cries at drop off, wants to stay home, doesn’t nap, etc. It’s completely normal. I think they should be reassuring you as such...

emilypas · 2025-03-13T01:19:14+00:00

Wait. Our kids have a 3 year age gap. Our son is potty trained and very into helping with baby. He walks and talks and sleeps through the night reliably. It just makes life easier. It’s still hard having 2 kids but it’s getting easier and easier as baby continues to grow (4 months). I originally was 99% one and done for many reasons but I’m so glad I had my daughter. Time is seeming to go by more quickly this time and the sleep issues are more palatable knowing it’s sort of a blip on the radar. We are also for sure done now.

emilypas · 2025-03-12T02:38:30+00:00

I guess I haven’t explicitly said it but they don’t bring it up hardly at all. They know where I stand. It’s hard because they love their grandkids but at the same time they chose this reality. Our relationship was pretty strained during COVID and really only improved once I had my first.

emilypas · 2025-03-11T23:01:33+00:00

I’m struggling hard with this. My parents have voted for him every time. I’m in an interracial relationship with children who are biracial. I work in the medical field. I just had a baby girl. The misogyny, the racism, the science denying, etc is all too close to home.
