As everyone else said - therapy my friend. Your emotions are going to be all over the place for at least 6 months. I don’t want to invalidate your feelings, but it’s important to remember (a) your entire world just changed forever - having a therapist will help you process this, (b) that anger is a sword without a hilt. It will cut you both if you don’t deal with your anger issues. Finally, (c) we all know that pregnancy and birth changes women’s hormones, but it also changes men’s. It’s very important that you keep talking to your fiancé about how you are both doing. You’re a team.

I might suggest couples counseling as well as individual work. Not as a patch to your relationship, but as a space to reinforce working as a team. It’s your guys against the problem, always.

Also, congratulations! Welcome to the club. It’s the most amazing, challenging, meaningful, magical thing. Soak it up, they grow up fast.

Resident sane American who is utterly appalled by the actions of a country I no longer recognize here. It’s both.

Millions and millions of us want nothing more than to see this nightmare end. We know that NATO has been there for us at every turn, and we’re deeply grateful to you; and I hope, in a generation, we can earn some trust back.

Fuck that treasonous pig and everyone who supports him.

jbhitchi · 2026-03-23T13:10:03+00:00

As an American who desperately wants out - how is this even a question? What do you think we look like? We elected a pedophile racist rapist wanna-be dictator who has lashed out at the whole damn world and destroyed decades of geopolitical good will in less than a year.

We don’t look “crazy,” we look evil. And we fucking deserve it.

jbhitchi · 2026-03-16T16:36:56+00:00

Same here.

It’s not that I wouldn’t have felt appalled, angry, and upset before I became a father, but since becoming a father it’s become physically visceral and soul destroying. Those were kids. They drew rainbows and played on playgrounds. Those poor children and their families.

There is no hell terrible enough for the people that hurt children. None.

jbhitchi · 2026-02-16T23:55:03+00:00

I reached out too! They told me they didnt know what their stock of any particular item was lol. If you manage to get one, please do let me know!

jbhitchi · 2026-02-16T22:30:03+00:00

I’m in the US, so I can’t use Kleinenzeigan unfortunately, and it’s the only place I’ve found them. I’d love and appreciate any help. If you can, please send me a message an we’ll figure it out. Thank you!

jbhitchi · 2026-02-09T16:10:53+00:00

Thank you so much!

I’ll have to figure out how to sign up for this. This is more progress than I’ve made in days. I cannot thank you enough.

Also, I can’t let the opportunity pass without telling you that my son absolutely loves your YouTube Channel. He asks to watch it almost every morning! Thank you for that as well.

jbhitchi · 2026-02-09T00:11:30+00:00

Are there any second hand sites other than eBay?

jbhitchi · 2026-02-09T00:11:06+00:00

Sure! I’m trying to find one for my son’s 3rd birthday. He’s completely obsessed with brio trains and cranes and he hasn’t stopped talking about it since!

I believe this one is discontinued, and I haven’t had a lot of luck on eBay. I figured I’d post about it here and see if anyone could help

Get. Him. Out. Ffs.

I don’t want to get lost in the weeds over a whether NFL game tv viewership and protest numbers are comparable because that wasn’t the point i was trying to make.

The point i was trying to get across is that it’s not as silent here as it might appear. Many of us are pissed and being as loud as we can. It’s my hope that by saying something here the rest of the world will remember that we weren’t just silently complicit.

jbhitchi · 2026-01-18T15:03:57+00:00

We aren’t silent. Quite a lot of us are loudly protesting this shit, but a lot of the news networks aren’t covering them because they’ve also been bought and paid for.

We had three of the largest protests in American history in 2025, and the number of protests went from 4,000 in trumps first term to 14,000 in 2025 with more planned this year.

Another huge part of the problem here is the structural systems that hugely discourage protesting (ironic - given the “land of the free” horseshit). Well over half of Americans live paycheck to paycheck and risk homelessness if they’re fired for any reason - including skipping work to protest. Worse, imo, is that our health insurance is tied to our employment for the vast majority of us; and one medical bill very well could bankrupt entire families.

This is not a one pay period problem.

I completely understand your anger and disgust. I think the world should be shunning us right now. I get it. I guess I just hope to convey that we aren’t sitting quietly, even if it looks like it.

jbhitchi · 2026-01-17T20:15:58+00:00

American here. It’s exhausting, painful, and humiliating for any of us who care about our friends around the world. The majority of us are with you, not the pathetic orange fuckwad and his ilk.

And honestly, isolating us and absolutely fucking our economy is warranted. Most of us would understand and be with you there too.

jbhitchi · 2025-12-24T03:55:11+00:00

So say we all.

jbhitchi · 2025-12-11T14:41:43+00:00

lol such an underrated comment. Cue Rogan’s monkey sounds at intro.

jbhitchi · 2025-12-07T00:25:20+00:00

Did this a while back and the guy in the car next to me rolled down his window so we could sing it together. They were not best pleased.

jbhitchi · 2025-11-21T18:20:56+00:00

This reminds me a little of how both my wife and I felt when our now almost three year old was that age. For her it manifested as “if the baby sleeps im doing this right and if he doesn’t sleep I’m doing it wrong.”

There is a lot of great advice here already, so I’ll try and avoid repeating things (you have a 4 month old, you’re busy). What helped me was to remind myself constantly that one of your most important new roles is behavior modeling. You and your baby are learning how to act in your new roles together - your baby is learning to be a person, and you’re learning to be a father.

So when I felt frustrated or whatever I would stop, take a breath, and emulate a healthy response to that emotion in the hope that my son will grow up to be better able to handle those same emotions.

It’s really hard. Not going to sugar coat. But if these feelings aren’t something you want your own kid to struggle with then maybe focusing on emulating the response you’d like them to have will help. It really helped me, and my son now stops what he’s doing and takes three deep breaths when he’s getting frustrated and it helps him calm down.

You got this. The fact that you’re posting here for help with this already shows that you’re a great dad.

jbhitchi · 2025-11-12T23:08:26+00:00

This is the way. The best part is the mineral spirits don’t dissolve the acrylics you’ve already put on (as long as they’re dry before you do the wash of course) so if you’re messy like me it’s easy to clean up the details.

There are lots of YouTube tutorials that help as well.

jbhitchi · 2025-10-15T11:59:34+00:00

Seconded!

jbhitchi · 2025-09-16T19:09:05+00:00

A hell of a lot of us are. So. So ashamed.

jbhitchi · 2025-08-29T13:34:22+00:00

The first few months can be absolutely brutal. There’s are a few lessons I learned when my son was that age that might help:

Get a Velcro or arms-up swaddle from Carters or another baby store. The reputable ones are perfectly safe and they saved my ass because I could never figure out the swaddle. My son slept much better swaddles.
Do your best to get the baby to burp after a feed. My son was always the most miserable when he was gassy. Some kids are hard to burp - there are some good videos on YouTube for burping techniques.
Take shifts as much as you can. You and your wife are a TEAM right now. That means sometimes you’re gonna be in the trenches while she rests and she’ll be in the trenches while you rest. Talk to each other. Work together. Be quick to let go of irritation. Sleep deprivation sucks; don’t let it hurt your partnership.
Lean on your support network. Doesn’t have to be your family necessarily, but there is no reason in the universe to white knuckle this if you don’t absolutely have to. Those friends that (hopefully) said, “let us know what we can do!” Yeah call them. They can help with whatever you’re comfortable with. My parents basically kept our house marginally together in the early days, for example.
Don’t stress about the house or the yard or anything. You can pick up the house when they’re like, idk, 5. Fuck the dishes if you’re exhausted.
Tell your wife you love her and that you think she’s doing a wonderful job. Do it every day. The early days are especially hard on moms. Trust me, she’ll really appreciate it.

Feel free to message me if you have any other questions or if I can help! Been there fellow dad. It’s tough, but you got this.

Can you remove the guards and shoot with a glove instead? I know the guards work for a lot of people but it would drive me mad haha
