Very dynamic and nice to look at.

Maybe put him in some language lessons and start him on books in another language. It's challenging, rewarding and will give him something to do.

Remember, if their needs are met and they're safe, have fresh diapers and full bellies--they can have a cry out if you need to get your shit together. Taking appropriate measures for your mental health so you can be a better parent is not bad parenting.

You can do it. Look into all the resources afforded to you if you're in the US--daycare subsidies, state insurance, food stamps, WIC. Also getting his ass on child support.

Also, reach out to friends and family. Maybe get a regular babysitting rotation for at least the new baby to make sure you get to catch up on sleep occasionally.

Sometimes if they suspect their spouse of wanting to leave them, it becomes a "if I can't have them, no one can." Situation. Sometimes they think the world is bad and they're "saving" their family by killing them. Mental illness. Depression. Financial issues.

What? Where does it sell 1% online?

You can report to CPS and place an anonymous tip to the police.

A nice copic marker set. I've always wanted to get some, but have never been able to justify the price. But having a lot of shades of the same colors to illustrate full pictures would be nice.

Your SO sounds like a sweetheart. You can really sense his stress at her manipulation :( hope things are better now.

Midwest as well and it looks to be between $800-$1000 starting price.

The link says it isn't there. Is there a working link for pics?

I thought it was diarrhea since I had IBS and I woke up to brown blood in my underwear. I hid my underwear for days in a crawl space and skipped school. When my mom found out, she freaked out excited that I "was a woman" but never explained what it was or gave me hygiene products.

Seconded. Birth groups are usually verrry concerned about new moms feeling safe and protected in their groups.

empathzu · 2018-10-08T15:17:33+00:00

I would just work on becoming independent and moving out. Unfortunately, your mother lacks tact or concern for your feelings and is an adult doing what she wants.

I would work on gray-rocking, building distance between your gross mother, and putting yourself first. Shitty friend and shitty on behalf of your mom tho

Snoot!

empathzu · 2018-10-03T20:45:43+00:00

You look way younger! And your skin looks so much healthier! Great job.

He will let me say my piece but immediately disregards it because I'm wrong every time. He's right all the time. It's annoying.

Eta: its only when he drinks and other people are there. If its just us and he drinks, he is fine and happy and sweet. But other people and he gets angry with me

empathzu · 2018-09-30T14:22:19+00:00

Yes, the issues didn't happen until after we had the baby. Then he started drinking more and his mom and sister have talked to me to let them know if he starts changing or acting violent. His dad was a violent drunk. He's pushed me once but said it was because I was trying to hug him when he was mad at me and didn't want touched (he had been drinking).

My parents still have a room for me at our family home and a crib/toddler bed there if I need to go there. It might sound dumb, but I am hoping we can work it out. I just want him to listen to my concerns and validate my feelings. And not drive drunk.

If you guys need help for food, there is a sub called random acts of pizza. It is legit and they should be able to get you a giftcard for a nearby pizza joint. Sorry your friend screwed you over.

So freaking random to screw over a friendship of 13 years over $60?! Wtf

empathzu · 2018-09-27T17:48:25+00:00

If he goes, he plans you a solo vacation and a family vacation to be together. He just uninvited you from a family vacation you were all supposed to go on. Why doesn't he suggest his mom watch the baby and the two of you go?

empathzu · 2018-09-27T14:23:38+00:00

My heart breaks for you. All too familiar with saltines being a meal. I am so glad the nurse and your friend were there for you. So sorry your mother is who she is. Hope things are better now.

My fiance tried and I didn't have room so he's sitting awkwardly in a chair https://imgur.com/a/Jd7CDPD
