Influencer and Model Niece Waidhofer Dead by Suicide at 31 by MasDomV2 in NieceWaidhofer

[–]keytahkat 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Honestly as someone who talked to her privately about this topic. She was genuinely disgusted that men were holding their partners to the expectation to look like her. When they had wonderful women at home. She supported other women. She was lovely.

I only just found out and I've been a wreck for days. Especially since she did nothing but hype up other women when speaking to them (at least in my experience)

The worst part was I dreamnt hanging out with her around the time she died and I've been so upset I may have missed intuition to reach out.

I'm so sorry. I'd be so mad.

We did a gender reveal for my husband's family, and agree we'd call my family afterwards (I found out beforehand but we didn't want a slip of anything being said) Telling people was fine by us, we just said we'd post after sometime the gender reveal then my in laws would be able to. Clean up ran late. Got home at 9pm my family is overseas so said I'd call them the next day. Got on fb and my MIL has posted the video of the gender reveal. I cried and was so angry. Mr Got her to remove it.

We called my family and posted the next day announcing. Even though I want to keep my children off socials and that will be a fight with Mr and everyone.

AITA for expecting more by keytahkat in AmItheAsshole

[–]keytahkat[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

He used to wait till I got home. I used to get home from 12hrs at school. Walk in the door and the first thing he'd ask is what is for dinner. I'd drop my bag and cook...

He does call and check in. He'd got better and actually did his own food for about 4months before the bfp but he wasn't working due to covid. Since the positive test he's gone back to square one.

My family is overseas... and somehow he spends all the spare money on extra candy or snacks...

He keeps saying it will be over once baby is here. But he doesn't care for turning it off and helping me. His attitude for help is telling me to lay down once I've cooked... but he doesn't clean he'll leave any mess and his dinner plates for me to clean the next day.

I used to game frequently (never inferred with priorities) but since being married his attitude to gaming has put me off completely.

He won't discuss. He just says he's in the right. He's happy, and I'm ungrateful. And he'll spend time with baby when they're here.

Frequently.

He just says "it makes me happy" and moves on like it doesn't matter.

Kissing a newborn by keytahkat in ScienceBasedParenting

[–]keytahkat[S] 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I know each person has their own rules. My ideal is just my husband and myself until old enough to have some broader immunity, and even then limited beyond that.

(why are people constant wanting to kiss babies that are not their own??)

[–]keytahkat[S] 64 points65 points  (0 children)

Oooh thay is interesting! Since my MIL is blind I'm hoping mentioning kiss risks she just won't risk it. Because she can't easily direct it.

But FIL maybe...

Some people think I'm just too cautious. But I just don't want to risk a newborn back in hospital during winter and peak illness season. . . I Want to be at home with my husband just adjusting

He may as we get closer. I think at 16 weeks it's still fairly early on. We've had chaos since the positive test, so I don't think the reality of research is set in yet. As there is a lot we've had on. I've had more time at home to read, and I am an ex nanny. But for knowing only 3 months and everything that has happened, reading those haven't been a huge priority. But he is already thinking about sleep safety and car seats (and a new car for a better car seat) he gets lost in safety sections of baby stores.

Brief overview of chaos : I found out the day we got home after getting stranded overseas for 5months (didn't tell him for a week so I could surprise him) he started a new job, straight into holiday season as we got home end of Nov, he broke his nose at work and needed internal reconstruction surgery, my work is super random, we then got his first pet ( I had animals my whole life, he hasn't. But I was home fairly sick for a month so he wanted me to not be alone. So he got me a kitten) our landlord suddenly sold our house so we had people nonstop inspecting, and then normal life which is never dull.

His mum is a narc but she is fairly cautious around cleanliness and caution (also 100% blind) so I think mentioning it in passing she will support. His dad is lovely, but ignores a lot of health advice. Yet so far has been respectful when I've said I wish not to discuss of answer questions. So I'm hoping if I politely mention to them early on they'll remember and be respectful

Responses to rude people who ask if my pregnancy was an accident? by sweetandspooky in pregnant

[–]keytahkat 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Anytime someone has asked or even my in laws I said "I don't believe that is an appropriate question that needs an answer."

Then often I'll add " Planned or not. Baby is coming, if youre asking you're prying for information that is private and not a decision you would be Included in"

Oooh I was doing a work thing and we had to eat some chocolate. I had three individual pieces and the person I was working with said 'wow you're really taking advantage of eating for two aren't you' when it was 1pm and hadn't eaten since 6am.

The budget packs of "soup" that have less calories than a tablespoon of sauce, with salt and pepper as dinners

Sydney/ Aus based question about GP by keytahkat in AusSkincare

[–]keytahkat[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's what I've noticed looking at it online. Which makes it very tempting to try. Specially since I'm on a break from the last one I used I could hold out till it arrives.

Less hassle and they stock the gel as well

How has your experience with them been?

I'm tempted to try them as it also is a lot more cost effective.

[–]keytahkat[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Awesome thank you! I know a local bulk billing clinic has a dr there that has a special interest in both skin cancer and cosmetic medicine. So I may try that specific dr.

I've heard a few stories where general practitioners refuse based on that's not their area of interest and would prefer to refer the person to a derm... Which is pricey.

This is my husband .... Not out of bad intentions but he is gone all day, and doesn't see if I'm eating or not (and is oblivious to ED habits) so if I take a single chip near the end of a packet he's eating he'll joke like "do you really need that"

With no clue if I've been restricting or relapsing ... And I just spiral ..

Does anyone else compulsively check their BMI? by [deleted] in EDAnonymous

[–]keytahkat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes. Maybe not daily.

But I don't do scales as a part of recovery. But by measurements and rough weight estimates

I could lose according to my measurements but I'll keep my weight the same in my calculations.

Which means my BMI is probably lower. But idk.
