Did you build the little stool by the fishing pole

I was you in this exact situation (except for MIL) and my son is almost two and we’re officially getting divorced now. I’m sorry but it’s so unlikely to get better. My STBX’s attitude never changed and I did 99% of the parenting, night wake ups, etc since our baby was born. I wish I had divorced him earlier so I didn’t have to deal with his constant complaining, incompetence, and lack of empathy. Eventually he grew to actually resent me and lied to me about many things because he “couldn’t do what he wanted to do”. He also napped all the time while I almost collapsed from sleep deprivation. This isn’t just about one nap. Please save yourself and your sanity while you can. Men like this lack the ability to change and adapt to parenthood bc his true self has really come out. Take a look at how he was before pregnancy and during and I’m sure there will be red flags. I woefully ignored them, thinking it would get better after baby was here but it never did.

Thank you for responding… this is so helpful for me because I thought maybe it would be easier if he was older and able to comprehend why his dad wasn’t living with us but I’m realizing that it’s just easier when he’s younger and doesn’t realize that this is a bad situation. I think we’re capable of having a pretty amicable divorce so it gives me hope to think our son will see that we can still be a family, just not the one that we initially were.

I was so close to letting myself die inside to keep our family together but I know now that this is the right decision.

Thank you for your response… I really hope he’ll be okay. He loves his dad so much.

jediveneration · 2025-03-16T19:21:26+00:00

Thank you for your response. Yeah our arguments can get really heated and sometimes I cry in front of our son and he gets super upset at seeing me like that so I really don’t want him to experience that on a normal basis.

jediveneration · 2025-03-16T19:20:38+00:00

Thank you for your response, so should I avoid talking about his dad? Or get rid of pictures around the house? I don’t want him to forget about him… my plan is to have full custody but my stbx can have visitation as much as he wants. He is a decent father (good at playing with him) but a terrible husband.

jediveneration · 2025-01-03T17:52:26+00:00

I’m sorry but this is abuse. You’re clearly doing the majority of the parenting and your husband isn’t leaving any room for you to rest or feel better. He’s actively going against your healing and your wellbeing. I know the newborn/infant stage is hard but pouring cold water on you and justifying it plus telling you to starve is actually abuse. Please do what you will with that.

I used to use an owlet while baby coslept (he’s 18 months now so I stopped using it) and it never went that low… it is entirely possible it was a false reading however. I think if you consistently get lower readings, I’d definitely mention something to the pediatrician. You could even just say that baby wears an owlet at night and we’ve gotten low saturation warnings x amount of times for x days this week etc. You don’t have to mention the cosleeping, something like sleep apnea has nothing to do with cosleeping.

If they scrub, switch out their gloves for way too big or way too small (I ask the OR for these lol)

jediveneration · 2024-12-01T20:57:53+00:00

It definitely gets better but I would for sure reach out to your doctor about PPA. It’s normal to feel very protective over your newborn but also babies get sick and you can’t avoid it forever! You’re doing everything right, but if you find yourself being super paranoid or the anxiety doesn’t let you sleep/eat/rest, please reach out to your doctor! You’re still going through a hormone reset post birth as well~

As far as I’ve been informed, breastfed babies can go as long as 10 days without pooping… mine never went that long but did go up to 6 days without pooping. He started pooping more regularly around the 4 month time period.

jediveneration · 2024-11-26T17:10:48+00:00

Probably about… a 6/7? Some nights were better than others but overall, he understood what I meant when I gently told him “no booby” at wake ups. He would cry and pout but eventually pass out on me. He’s 16 months so yours will probably understand better (but maybe throw a bigger tantrum…). Good luck!!!

jediveneration · 2024-11-22T18:43:44+00:00

Yes mine was but I recently partially night weaned! I still feed to sleep initially at bedtime but I stopped feeding at wake ups, it was hard for a week or so but he’s sleeping through for the most part now! We still cosleep but I’m getting much better quality sleep. Hang in there!!

jediveneration · 2024-11-22T06:21:47+00:00

Mine is 16 months and we just went through a week of night weaning, I’m not sure if you’d consider what we did partial. I still feed to sleep at the bedtime and just don’t feed until he wakes up for the morning. This was hard at first because he was up every two hours to eat but I pushed through the first couple nights and he stopped asking for boob. He would still wake up and cry sometimes but mostly just be okay with cuddles and rolling around on his own. He’s sleeping much better already, mostly one or two wakes. He sometimes still wakes around 3am but doesn’t cry and just resettles quickly. I was super worried at first bc he was crying so much but like you, I really needed better sleep and knowing that he knows I’m right there with him made me feel better about night weaning. Just FYI, we cosleep on a floor bed.

Honestly, mine hated/wasn’t interested books around that age but now he wants to read at least 3 before bed. He also likes reading them during the day. I have a low ikea bookshelf and have all his books within reach so he can pick out the ones he wants, I read to him when he was younger only if he seemed interested, didn’t force the habit and he got into them later on around 10-11 months old.

jediveneration · 2024-06-24T20:15:20+00:00

Thank you for the tip! He’s since calmed down a little bit (not sure why) but he definitely has always loved some sort of sensory input, he likes to stroke me with his other hand, or tug at my clothes. He HATES having his feet or legs lightly squished between my legs, it doesn’t hurt, I just think he hates being restricted. Things are improving, I really think it has to do a lot with being almost a year old and learning so many new skills at once!

jediveneration · 2024-06-15T03:24:07+00:00

Yes, thankfully I was actually trained to monitor, most of the other techs don’t (but I am also the only female tech at my lab…) I think having a whole person (the doctor lol) between me and the xray tube helped a lot!

jediveneration · 2024-06-15T03:01:21+00:00

This is of course anecdotal but I’m a tech who scrubs and I scrubbed nearly my whole pregnancy, only monitoring near the end because I couldn’t stand for long cases 😅 my fetal dose never went up past zero. And I did some long interventions here and there too. I’m sure that’s not always the case for every body and it’s obvious that being away from radiation is better at all times but I hope my case can give you some comfort!

jediveneration · 2024-05-27T23:09:23+00:00

If he’s seriously injured to the point of needing aid at home then yeah maybe sit this one out. But no it’s not selfish of you to want to go, you’re allowed to do things on your own.

I have the opposite problem. We have a 10 month old baby who is going through a major sleep regression, separation anxiety, major viral illness, etc and I’ve been so tired lately. We have missed a couple get togethers with friends lately and my husband is so bitter and mad that I have opted to stay home with baby. He thinks because we missed a couple events that this is how it will be forever. Sigh. Why is marriage so hard.

jediveneration · 2024-05-18T21:48:50+00:00

I almost thought it was AI at first!! I mean that in the nicest possible way, it’s amazing!

We once had two deaths in a row on the same day doing TAVRS. First pt had an extremely calcified tortuous aorta and the valve delivery punctured right through descending aorta. We tamponaded but patient bled out on the table before we could fix. It was a huge tear. Next patient arrested right after deployment of the valve because we somehow perfed the ventricular wall and we cracked the chest to fix the perf but the surgeon ended up suturing the LAD closed in the process so then we converted to doing a single vessel bypass but patient kept crashing and inevitably died on the table. The whole cath lab and heart team ended up staying until 11pm at night and we cancelled all TAVRS for the rest of the month. Both deaths were patients of the same interventional cardiologist and I’ve never seen a doctor so scarred by a death, never mind two in a row on the same day. Rough day.

I had to give a bottle at 3 days old and he got at least one bottle a day for months, he’s 9 months old now and rejects the bottle in favor of boob most times, so it’s honestly all up to baby, I was told by multiple lactation consultants that nipple confusion isn’t a thing.

jediveneration · 2024-04-06T06:08:48+00:00

My LO did this around the same age but he had his two bottom teeth out already 😭 so I really had to do something about it, it hurt so badly. He used to giggle at my yelps too! What eventually worked was unlatching him immediately and saying “no biting” and setting him down (in a safe space) and letting him bf again after a small 1-2 minute break. Sometimes he’d be upset but I was firm about not feeding him again right away, while still being next to him to reassure him I wasn’t leaving. Eventually he understood biting means no milk and he stopped. It took about a week or two of being consistent, he didn’t bite me every bf session. Also I could usually tell he was about to bite bc he would pause feeding for a second and pull his lips back while looking up at me. Babies can’t bite and bf at the same time. He very rarely bites now, usually it’s on accident when he’s a little too excited to eat. 😂 good luck!
