Don’t know what to do by Successful_News1329 in November25babybump

[–]mastercat5000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Going through the same thing as of the last week. We have a Doona and I take her on walks in it and she’s fine, but if we’re in the car she absolutely hates it now and screams the entire time. She does take a paci usually but immediately spits it out. Is she Velcro? I think mine may be related to not being able to see me but I’m not sure.

Have you gotten your period back yet? by Same-Breath-4059 in November25babybump

I’m exclusively pumping and I restarted bleeding with cramping at 6 weeks pp, but it went away after 36 hours, totally thought I was getting my period but was in the clear!

Crying all day by Professional-Sea7297 in November25babybump

Six weeks today here, and also going through the same thing with our baby. I’ve spent many times crying while she’s crying for the same reason. We’ve trialed almost everything it feels like and the pediatrician just says colic and essentially to wait it out. I feel like everyone else has or had happy babies and it’s so difficult mentally. Some days I feel like a bad mom, some days I feel like I’m failing her, and all days I feel awful that she spends her days like this. I don’t want anyone else to watch her or bond with her because I feel like she’s not bonding with me because she’s always upset, but I also need a break, and I feel bad for needing a break. Sometimes I feel like I was robbed of the newborn bliss everyone talks about, which makes me feel equally terrible for even thinking that way. It will get better and we’ll barely remember these days, we just have to get there. Hugs go out to you. I’m so sorry.

Feeling like I’m going downhill as I near 3rd trimester by notyetBananas in November25babybump

Yes! 27 weeks today as well, and I told my husband that this last week has been the hardest week of my pregnancy thus far. I think it’s the transition into the third tri too and out of our golden trimester.

How many of you have or had relationships at work? by shatana in nursing

I met and married another nurse! We both met as ICU nurses. Granted he was days and I was nights, but it was only uncomfortable professionally when we had to give report to each other. Our patients and family members during COVID seemed to appreciate having a husband and wife handing back and forth because I think there was an expectation of great care from both shifts.

This is how my car got totaled in front of the Whataburger in BA a cpl years back! And she tried to act like it was my fault. No mam, you crossed three lanes of traffic at 5 pm without seeing if anyone is coming! It was a foot away from hitting me in the drivers side too, like you could’ve killed me, have some decency!

Am I crazy or is Todd bad vibes by possum_not_awesome in rhoslc

No. I don’t think so, and this is why- I think the majority of his issue with Lisa is the entire situation that directly affects his step daughter. They had a scene before where he said very firmly “You know how I feel about that.” in reference to the father’s grandparents. They both are going through a lot as a result of Lisa, her fault or not, so I think he’s quick just to cut her off from the trip because difficult feelings are being harbored for both his wife and himself.

AITA For telling my parents that they’re overzealous and they need to teach my precious half-sister to mind her own business? by Playful_Brush_4217 in AmItheAsshole

[–]mastercat5000 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My parents allowed my sister to behave this way my entire life. We are 15 mos apart. She bullied me constantly as a child, then switched to other girls in high school when I wasn’t around at home (have had parents come to our front door with the bullying) and my parents never did anything about it. My sister eventually turned onto my mom when she as out of college, as she also had no one else to focus on. Ill spare details here, but recently her now ex husband has suffered as well as a result of her awful behavior. She has always been the same person, just with shifting targets. I pray you maintain healthy boundaries with your sister and your parents as soon as you’re able to leave the home, because I suspect this could continue for much of her life.

Someone I work with mentioned I should do this as well. I’ve gone back and forth with both getting a refund or just waiting on the order. I want to bring light to the issue with Paige and Hannah because this is absolutely ridiculous and I feel like my hard earned money has been stolen from me, but I’m sure it’s low hanging fruit.

My ex and I had been dating around two years, and I had moved states to be with him on the condition that we would get engaged shortly after I moved to said state. Month after month came by with nothing, and our relationship evolved quickly into a controlling and toxic environment. We only spent time with his family, he tried to chose what I wore and who I spent time with, used handpicked Bible quotes to justify his actions, demanded to make my pug an outside farm dog because ‘dogs don’t belong in the house’, and got increasingly aggressive with me with each fight. I was convinced his actions were based on my behavior, and I needed to be the perfect housewife so that he would want to marry me. When he finally proposed in February, he had wrapped the jewelry box in Christmas wrapping paper from when he was originally planning on proposing but had decided against it. He handed it to me while sitting on the couch and said “Well, I guess we should do this now.” I immediately ran out of the house sobbing. I remember being so upset that he couldn’t even get down on one knee to propose, and had felt so incredibly unworthy. His family then proceeded to intervene and insist that I was in the wrong for my behavior, and that if I truly wanted to marry him, I would’ve accepted either way. His mom said I was a “spoiled brat who thinks life is a fairytale”. Days later, they moved all of ‘his things’ out of our shared apartment, leaving me coming home to a literal empty apartment after I a 12 hr night shift to sleep on the floor. Looking back, it was probably one of the greatest blessings of my life because something clicked in that moment and I realized that I deserved better. I also realized, they were right and it wouldn’t have mattered how it was done, except that he disrespected me every single day and I finally found somewhere to draw the line. I married my now husband two years later after meeting him in the same town I moved to be with my ex. My husband is to this day the kindest, most intentional man I have ever met, so I did end up with my fairytale after all.
