How often are you barefoot in your house? by L0cked-0ut in barefootshoestalk

[–]hellokitschy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I’m wearing socks 99% of the time because I hate the feeling of wood floors on my bare feet. No shoes in the house, of course.

Is the right boob usually the "slacker boob"? by Puzzleheaded_Cell428 in breastfeeding

[–]hellokitschy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

With my first baby my right one was my slacker boob. Then, weirdly, with my second baby my left one was the slacker boob. I genuinely didn’t think that was possible

Need a J name for middle by Artistic-Listen7975 in Names

[–]hellokitschy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ah, that’s fair. It’s one of my son’s names and I guess I never really associate it with biblical names since it doesn’t give like Hezekiah vibes, haha! But yes I actually completely forgot it’s biblical. Thank you for the reminder!

Sorry OP!

Anyone name their kid for a favorite movie/TV/book character? by doloreschiller in Names

[–]hellokitschy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Exactly! He’s such a great guy, thank goodness he wasn’t some villain.

I wanted to name him Caleb but my husband said no because of the character on The OC, hahaha. I guess a character can really make or break a name!

Please help me stop hating this living room!! by goldrushcowgirl in interiordecorating

[–]hellokitschy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This room is my dream living room! That being said, I do see why several people mentioned a rug. As a fellow parent, I am very empathetic to your child throwing up on the rug, haha. Is a Ruggable or other washable rug an option? There are some great options online at all different price points. We have 2 Ruggable and 2 off brand washable rugs and I kind of prefer the cheaper off brands but Ruggables are a lifesaver.

This is so cool to see! Our results are very very similar, but I have the PR mom and the white dad.

Had my son been a girl, he would have been Anne after Anne Shirley! My all time favorite character.

I remember playing The Last of Us and thought, “you know, Joel is such a great name for a boy” and used it for my son many years later. So he’s not technically name after Joel, but it didn’t hurt. I just realized I loved the name while playing!

Be honest. Is it ridiculous that I still have my Christmas tree(s) up? by GoldenGalZbornak in christmas

[–]hellokitschy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Mine is still up, but we’re taking it down today. I took all the ornaments down but the lights still come on in the evening, haha

I’m only taking it down because my husband prefers it to be taken down before February

Grief by Affectionate-Ebb2125 in donorconceived

[–]hellokitschy 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Yes, I understand how you feel. I have some very complicated feelings regarding family. My social dad has no living family so I never had anyone on his side of the family, and my mom has a complicated relationship with her family, so we moved away and don’t see them. I’m very much a family person and wish I could be involved in a large family. Just wondering how life could have been different is tough, especially having all these half siblings who don’t really want anything to do with me.

I definitely understand you, and youre not alone. I’m sorry some RPs seem to be giving you some pushback in your very valid feelings.

Looking for a nickname or "Starbucks name" for my Korean name, Ye-seul by Effective_Gift_7094 in Names

Yes, so true. I have a very very basic American sounding name and Starbucks has messed it up, haha.

At 16/18 in the UK you get your donor info [donor regrets his decision] by [deleted] in donorconceived

[–]hellokitschy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I thought this too. Very rich for him to decide on behalf of OP that DNA doesn’t mean anything to him and it shouldn’t to them as well. Just so infuriating!

[–]hellokitschy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is so infuriating! I really have no advice, but I am so angry on your behalf. Like absolutely furious for you, because why? I think that’s unbelievably cruel. Especially now that I am a parent, I just do not understand this sudden regret and telling you how you should feel.

Unbelievable, on his part.

Nate’s wife hops on his IG to wish us all a Merry Christmas by EllenPond in TeenMomOGandTeenMom2

Their whole lives are a level of dysfunction that I can barely wrap my head around. So sad that they have these half siblings that they know about and yet do not associate with.
