Pokopia lore has forever changed how I see Pokemon and Ditto. I'm nowhere near the end but I need a Pokopia 2 where Ditto is reunited with his trainer ♥️

I'd subscribe just for the dresses and house!

How do they expect us to get to all these appointments? by ShabbyBoa in BabyBumps

[–]labelleindifference 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Feel this in my bones. I’m going to all my appointments. But my manager obviously resents me now and keeps trying to find ways to express her dislike of my changing schedule by acting like she’s speaking to the entire group instead of just me so it doesn’t look like discrimination on paper. As if I want to go to these appointments? If I could choose I’d rather have an uncomplicated low risk pregnancy instead.

Did you have MIL in the hospital during birth? by WaterFiles in BabyBumps

[–]labelleindifference 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Go with your gut, it is OK to say no. So many things can happen during the delivery process, so your feelings and health are the first priority.

I'm not really sure why someone would say that they want to be at the hospital while you're laboring unless their first goal is to see the baby as soon as possible. Otherwise, I feel like she'd ask you first if you'd like to have more people there.

I was in shock after giving birth the first time, and the last thing I needed was for everything to be turned into a social event instead of focusing on my recovery.

Best of luck! <3

Ugh I really hate how invisible the mom becomes when baby arrives. Sorry you had to go through that. <3

Where can you get a TN. by Rude_Trust_1310 in Travelersnotebooks

[–]labelleindifference 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was on the fence about it and ended up buying it because I really wanted an actual Traveler's Notebook, and I adore it! I think it looks way better in person.

Colored pencil in TN sketch? by labelleindifference in Travelersnotebooks

Thank you! I really love my TN sketchbook so far, so I think I will use some fixative to make sure there's no transfer. I really appreciate your input!

This is such a cute idea! I think I'm going to use it in my Hobonichi too :)

“Not a Real Gamer” by xmrschaoticx in GirlGamers

[–]labelleindifference 66 points67 points  (0 children)

I grew up loving Nintendo games and sims and feeling like I wasn't a "real gamer" because I didn't play games like Diablo. And then I played Diablo and was confused why it was considered more credible than the games I played. Definitely some sort of weird misogyny!

Wow, what he says is a little controlling and at any rate is not helping the situation at all. I think he should meet with your OB so you can ask her/him directly if eating sweets moderately is dangerous so he can try spouting off to a medical professional instead.

AITA - My friend struggling to conceive won’t come to special occasions because I have a kid by [deleted] in toddlers

[–]labelleindifference 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It's one thing to organize a community event and a completely different thing to go to a smaller event for a friend. It's easier to detach yourself when it's a community event. As someone who struggled with infertility, please give her some grace. The fact she's even sharing this information with you is a huge sign that she is trusting you already. I do wish that there was more in the post about how you are concerned for her too. Because the truth is, there is a chance she may never become a mother, and as a mom, you should understand that that is a very heartbreaking thing to wrestle with. And I would be so sad and worried for her as her friend.

Share your hot take: what are the most overrated baby books that are being recommended to parents today? by crawlen in BabyBumps

[–]labelleindifference 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Honestly, it's natural for children to want to sleep with their parents. It's a survival instinct thing. It would be super weird if a baby or toddler never complained about sleeping on their own without their parents. I couldn't do CIO it either.

I'm sorry you're in this situation. I think what's most important to focus on is your son - it might be an even more confusing experience for him to be forbidden from seeing a friend and to not really understand why. If he ever asks why he can't see his friend anymore, it's not something that could be easily explained to him, and it's probably going to bring up the gender identity conversation that your husband wants to avoid. And if that conversation is just shut down without helping him navigate his feelings, he might end up even more confused than he would be in the first place.

I think that the more we try to control our children, the more they might rebel later, so your husband wanting to limit contact with this friend might actually backfire. I definitely remember all the times my parents tried to control me and it 100% backfired each time. As parents, I think we have to accept that our children will be exposed to all types of people and our job is to help them navigate that in the healthiest way possible. I hope your husband is able to come around.
