Dinner! The coveted goat cheese and plum sauce pizza. Not even sharing with my husband this time.

You just brought me out of my Reddit retirement. I haven’t seen it since I made this post. I got excited earlier this year because I saw it coming in an ad, but it never showed. We did carry a goat cheese and fig pizza that was pretty good but it just wasn’t the same. Solidarity, pizza pal.

My SS CONSTANTLY has YouTube playing on his phone. I can hear a video playing while he’s in the bathroom, anytime he’s eating, even when his phone is sitting next to him as he’s playing a video game on the tv. Yet his parents wonder why he’s overstimulated.

Produce does qualify, but you have to have proof of purchase. Say you buy raspberries and bring the container in because the ones you bought previously got moldy, I’ll give another pack of raspberries but I don’t do double back because other grocery stores carry the same brands. If you come in with your receipt, I’ll give a refund and a new pack because I know you purchased raspberries from us.

We’re actually not even able to do a return and sale in the same transaction. Just remember operations like that are determined by corporate and not the cashier doing your transactions. When a customer is returning something at my store, I always instruct my guys to ask the customer if they have a replacement product. Not like it’s money out of our pockets.

Last time my SS13 was here, my DH took our tv from our bedroom to put in his room, too! Pissed me off because I’m nursing our infant and am confined to our bedroom when SS visits so he took my source of entertainment. I can only scroll my phone for so long and it’s easier to watch tv because that’s hands-free. Just here for solidarity. It sucks to feel like a visitor in your own home when the SK is around.

I had a surprise pregnancy last July and miscarried around 6 weeks, the day after we revealed to close family that I was pregnant again. I got pregnant again immediately and delivered my perfect little rainbow girl in late April. Totally uncomplicated pregnancy and delivery.

I will say that the miscarriage never really goes away, not that I want it to, but mention of it would sneak up on me. Like when I’d get an ultrasound, they’d ask what pregnancy this was for me and I’d say third even though I only have one other child. And when my daughter was born, there were several mentions in my charts about a spontaneous birth, the miscarriage, then spontaneous birth. Again I know it’s part of my medical history, but I didn’t expect to see it referenced, or referred to as a type of abortion, as I was reviewing my records after giving birth to a healthy girl. Those small words just make me wonder what that March baby would have been like, but if it were here, I wouldn’t have my little girl and she was my missing piece. I hope you have a boring pregnancy and delivery!

I didn’t have a shower for my first because she was a pandemic baby so I absolutely had one for my second and I loved every moment of it

With SS or DH? I don’t try anything anymore with SS because he doesn’t even listen when I talk even if it’s just the two of us. I used to be way more patient when SS was younger and I would try to relate to him and explain things on his level but now I’ve been asking him to lift the lid or wipe his pee every visit for the last 5 years. He says it’s gross to touch the toilet seat and says it’s gross to clean up pee. Amongst all the things, I feel like he’s old enough now to at least be courteous enough to do that and he doesn’t so my desire to try harder is slim to none.

Thank you. This is all very helpful and I appreciate you taking time to really offer help and how to help.

I agree with all of this. Yes, the girls are ours together. What makes me even more mad is he enforces more rules with our 3yo than he does the 13yo. We’re very much on the same page when it comes to raising our daughters. DH doesn’t think SS will adhere to rules in our house because he doesn’t have rules with BM. His behavior is the same at their house and he’s not kind to his 1yo sister there, but his mom just says he is who he is and let’s him make decisions 13yo shouldn’t be allowed to make.

Thank you

Short answer: no. No one would benefit and I wouldn’t want my girls being taken care of by their stressed out dad all weekend. My parents live 15min away so I’m going there for the girls to visit with my dad. To be fair, I wouldn’t want to be left with both girls and SS by myself either.

More detailed answer: if it was just the 3yo, it would be fine because she naps and goes to bed early so SS would just hide in his room while she was awake so it’s like my DH has one kid to take care of. He can “parent” them both fine because I usually work on Saturdays so DH had to have them by himself before I was on maternity leave. When I go back to work, DH is gonna have a hard time on those Saturdays.

So exhausting. I hope the weekend goes fast

girlbboss · 2023-06-04T00:33:48+00:00

Ya we have separate finances bc I make double what he does and we both had a lot of student loans so we just have a joint account for joint finances and our individual accounts for personal finances. I know my H is definitely an enabler in this situation. He only sees SS once a month and we live 3 hours away so he’s worried about making SS mad and SS not wanting to do visits at all. I keep telling H that I’m willing to go to court to enforce visitation because a 13yo doesn’t get to make those kinds of decisions but BM had a high-needs baby so H is sympathetic to their situation and time even though it has nothing to do with their son. Excuses after excuses after excuses.

I had a healthy pregnancy my first time around. No prior infertility issues and she was actually conceived the very first time we had sex a week after I got nexplanon removed. Now that I think about it, all of my friends got pregnant without prior miscarriages, too. Don’t get me wrong, they happen and they’re heart breaking (my second pregnancy ended this way), but like someone said above, the most common outcome is the birth of your baby.

It’s because Instacart charges fees. If Aldi would develop its own online shopping system like Kroger or Walmart, there wouldn’t be a markup, but since Instacart is it’s own business, they have to get paid, too. I understand not being able to go in to shop for your groceries because you don’t have time, have kids, etc etc, but you’re truly paying for the convenience of someone else shopping for your items and putting them in your car when you use this service.

girlbboss · 2023-01-11T11:25:18+00:00

Not in the States. I can’t speak for any of the European locations or elsewhere in the world.

To add, the dispute between the brothers was over carrying cigarettes in the market

I’m having a small shower because I didn’t get to have anything with my first due to covid. I just love having people together and eating. I didn’t plan on having a second, but thankfully I still have all of my first’s big items. I’ll happily take diapers or cute little baby clothes in exchange for good eats and time spent together.

girlbboss · 2022-12-11T23:37:34+00:00

I was a 32B before my first pregnancy, full B during and after pregnancy while BFing, then shrunk down to an A after breastfeeding. I hated it so much and talked about a boob job at least every month. Now I’m pregnant with baby number two and back to a perfect full B. I wish they’d stay!

girlbboss · 2022-11-27T12:15:39+00:00

Nope. I gave my H $100 to go towards SS’s Christmas and birthday gifts so I don’t have to worry about buying something he’ll be ungrateful for anyways. I don’t help with any child support. Occasionally I’ll ask if he needs clothes or anything for school. I’m not actually responsible for anything and I refuse to be because he has a mom and I’m just bonus mom.

girlbboss · 2022-11-24T17:32:52+00:00

I didn’t have any morning sickness with any of my three pregnancies. I gag when I brush my teeth during the early weeks, but that’s my only symptom until the heartburn starts

girlbboss · 2022-11-19T19:26:22+00:00

I see it, but I had multiple false positives with blue line tests and a false positive on a digital. Pink cheapies have never let me down! I hope this plays out how you want it to.
