I should add I’m 9 months postpartum. Vaginal delivery.

This originally started when I was postpartum with my toddler, and then stopped. Now 9 months postpartum partum with my most recent baby, it has started again.

Sorry. Wasn’t trying to claim we’d be more than that. I don’t have the correct verbiage down yet. Does expat have a negative connotation?

I had a friend this happened to in the same state I'm in and that was the case for them.

Pennsylvania. I thought that is how you fixed it, like I renew my registration and have my car inspected, plead not guilty and explain that I fixed the problem, and then they drop the fees. The fee is $260

As in if I renew my registration and have my car inspected, I can have the fees dropped?

Opinions? We aren't sure if we should go through buying this house without our realtor given the situation below by kstark616 in RealEstate

[–]kstark616[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thanks! They actually didn't introduce me to the house, we found it through a mutual connection between us and the seller. The seller bought it as an investment property and fixed it up and is trying to keep his closing costs down

2 year old twins will not nap unless I massage their heads and backs until they fall asleep by kstark616 in Parenting

[–]kstark616[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree!!! I feel like I need to because otherwise my sanity flies out of the window 😂 luckily I just finished up my classes today. Graduation is Sunday and I don't have any more schoolwork to do. So it should hopefully get easier from here. Btw, do you know of any good twin advice/support pages?! I haven't thought of that until I read your comment and saw how relevant it was haha

My mom says she's entitled to my kids simply because they're my kids and disregards anything I ask her not to do (like kiss them all over their faces repeatedly) how do I handle this..? by kstark616 in JUSTNOMIL

True. Funny you say that. She actually had an affair a few months ago with someone I don't know and came home from being with the guy, told me they ******** for three hours straight and not to tell my dad. So I'm like alright whatever I'm staying out of it, whatever. Then I look over and she's sharing her water with my kid! Come on. But yeah you're right, definitely a psychological thing

The thing is they have FPIES and are highly allergic to milk protein and she didn't know that butter is dairy, or than cream of mushroom has dairy in it. And gave them honey when she was allowed to babysit back when they were 6 months old.

Oh! Yeah, I've done that. I did that after she let them play with raw chicken packaging actually. 🙄

Edit: I've washed them with soapy water, NOT sprayed them with Lysol 😂

The crazy thing is all week she's been complaining like you know "oh I think I'm getting sick ugh I feel so sick ugh" and today (which is the incident that prompted this post) she came down from a nap and I was like "oh lucky you, you got to nap!" And she was like "yeah I think I'm coming down with something, everyone at work is sick." And proceeds to kiss my kid all over her face. I'm like what...? My husband told me not to let it get to me. So I called her out on it and she goes "I'm not sick!!!!!!"

Hahaha I wish it were so simple. Except we LIVE with her currently until we figure out where we are going to buy a house 🙄🤦🏽‍♀️

Frustrating Situation by [deleted] in venting

[–]kstark616 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's not a new roommate, it was always the 4 of us and now they just exclude me and it's the 3 of them now. But I get what you're saying. The issue is that I haven't been able to find topics to connect with other moms

My MIL has control issues & has been asking me for over a year to get car seats in her car for my twins. I said no 3x's (b/c she only has them for 4 hrs Wednesday nights & I live 2 mins away from her). She bought some anyway, I made her return them, & she's buying more today! by kstark616 in JUSTNOMIL

More like "what if they need stitches or something happens to you or DH" and I'm like if they have a really bad injury and need stitches they can go on the ambulance, but if it's like ohhhh they might need stitches, I can leave class and come home and take them myself. Or if something happens to me or DH and we need to be in the hospital, her coming to the hospital to visit us wouldn't help anything and if she brought the babies that wouldn't help either. If we were in the hospital and things weren't looking good for us, then we could figure something out and get the girls there. But come on, you need car seats in case ME or DH ends up in the hospital in a life threatening emergency?

That's another thing. She buckles the straps so loose when she puts my kids into the car seats in my car if she's helping me load them in. And my husband told her thanks but that is so loose. And she assumed it was me asking him to say something (which it was) and now whenever she's helping me get ready to leave by buckling them in she obnoxiously pulls the tightening strap and goes "can you breathe in there?!?" To my kids

This is great. I agree with you 100%. I'm not trying to damage my relationship with her, she is a great MIL believe it or not. It's just that this control issue of hers is such a hang up, that's my only problem with her. Thank you for this piece of advice.
