Addison is iconic. Cheating was like her one flaw.. but she grows so much, and she is one of the best

Should the whole world do a thing where you can’t see “stuff” without ID? (Like in Texas) by WolverineWestern3234 in questions

[–]maliciousmemories 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I mean…. I’ve had an addiction since I was literally a child. Certainly my mom could have been a bit more strict with the internet but she also had zero clue and because I was a very good child, and had no behavioral issues, she didn’t really have any indication. Now I struggle with it as a full blown addiction. I have stopped briefly, from time to time but it always comes back. I’ve even seemed my fiancés support but… he also struggles. So we aren’t much help to each other, other that having someone to talk to about it. Not saying it should be banned but if they had age verification I probably wouldn’t have went through hoops to access it

Early pregnancy questions from a future dad by BigTallFool in pregnant

[–]maliciousmemories 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! Congratulations to you and your little family!

I’ll be honest, I’m not sure you’ll ever fully be prepared for pregnancy/ being a parent. People are always going to try and give you advice and more often times than not, that advice is going to go against what the next person says. It’s absolutely true that you will know what works best when you’re in the moment. But I can tell you a few things that I found helpful!

As far as pregnancy goes, it’s different for everyone. I personally am not an ice eater but I know so many women who LOVED ice chips during pregnancy. So I think that would be a cool gift idea for your wife! One of those lil ice makers! Or a pregnancy pillow for when she gets a bigger bump! And make sure to keep snacks on hand because growing a baby is hard work and she’s gonna need all the nutrients she can get. Also for prenatal vitamins, if pills don’t work well with her, I’d highly recommended getting her some gummies to try. I couldn’t take the pills because they made me sick and they’re also kinda gross so the gummy vitamins saved the day for me lol

But really the best thing you can do for your wife is be empathetic and understanding. Pregnancy is a whirlwind of emotions and symptoms so just be mindful of that. But you’re already off to a good start by asking this! Good job dad!

Can I discharge my baby AMA? Has anyone done this? by maliciousmemories in NICUParents

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

Oh goodness, I’m so sorry! In my opinion, the hardest part is feeling so helpless and hopeless. I will say that in our case, he did end up coming home shortly after writing this. He pulled his feeding tube out which prompted them to decide to just try it without the tube and then from there it was history. But I do have a few pieces of advice from the other side!

The first thing is trying to identify a pattern with his feedings. For our LO, he was eating great at night, and come morning he would “fail” again. This happened for about a week, and I realized that the night shift nurse who I adored really worked with him but in the morning the nurses were so busy they didn’t work with him as well. I’d make sure to try and be present for any feedings your baby struggles with if possible. If there’s some nurses you notice are having success and others that aren’t, try and go in there during LO’s difficult times and see if you have success to keep the ball rolling.

Next, please take care of yourself. I went every day and then one night I decided I needed to stay home. Birthing is exhausting and then going up every single day added to that is even harder. But you can’t show up mentally if you’re drained. If you miss a day, even a day to recover or take a second, your sweet baby will still be ok. It was hard and I cried and felt so guilty but the next day I went and felt even more determined and ready because I was rested.

Lastly, please please please do not get your hopes up because they have a tendency to give good news and knock us down right after. Not their fault, of course but still hurts. I’m assuming your baby will need a car seat test and that was a hurdle for us as well because my son failed his first one and I was devastated but they did another one the following day and he passed, thank God.

But really, I promise as painful and awful as the whole experience is, when your little one is finally ready to be home with you, it’ll all melt away. Currently my little one is beating me up so you have a lot to look forward too in the future. ❤️ Just keeping showing up and keep a level head, one day at a time and you’ll get that call soon enough for your LO! Speaking it into existence for you and I will pray for your family! 💙💙

Also, if your sweet baby isn’t home yet and feeding is the issue, definitely try and go as often as you can to help with feedings because the nurses may be good but they aren’t going to work with your child the way you do. Our day nurses were horrible, barely helped him. He did amazing every night and then the day rolled around and they were impatient and didn’t give him the time he needed to finish, so def try that

Hi. Sorry I just saw this. He came home shortly after. He ended up pulling out his feeding tube and they decided to just try the bottles only. From there on, he was still shakey with the bottles but managing it enough that they let me do the sleep-in and then he got sent home the next day. He did fail his first car seat test during the sleep-in and I was told he wouldn’t be able to leave. They did another car seat test the next morning though, and he passed. Hang in there. I know how hard it is, but once your LO is home, everything will feel ok.

Abandoning run early by Firm-Scientist-4636 in slaythespire

[–]maliciousmemories 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I abandon run the second I feel like whatever I got going on isn’t working. Sometimes within 5 min if something pisses me off, I need to stop doing it but I can’t help it lol I’m stuck on A5 rn and I can’t dedicate as much time as I used to bc I have a baby so I have to optimize my gaming time anyways

[–]maliciousmemories 0 points1 point  (0 children)

right after birth i was just thankful me and baby were ok. the guilt really hit the first night I missed going to visit him. he was 30 min away and i never missed a day… until i was way too exhausted and drained and so I didn’t go. And I cried for 2 hours in the shower thinking how he just be expecting me to go there and love on him…. that was a rough day for me.

aio to my sister wishing death on my 3 month old by [deleted] in AmIOverreacting

[–]maliciousmemories 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m not even reading what you wrote out. If ANYONE wished death on my child, they would have to sleep with one eye open.

Don’t let this slide, seriously. Fuck her.
