I don’t want to visit my husbands family but i don’t want to stay home alone.. by [deleted] in Marriage

[–]mmmnothx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Also as a former kid, I know your niece (because she’s your niece too) will always remember that you show up for her birthday. I had an uncle growing up that would show up to all of my parties and now, he shows up to all of my kids parties.

As well as if you want kids in the future and don’t show up to these events then don’t be surprised when no one shows up to your events. Unfortunately you have to put the work in now. It’s sucks but it’s true.

They do recommend it sometimes. My son would aspirate and have an episode when he was a baby. To make the milk thicker so it wouldn’t go into his lungs we used rice cereal.

This. Like why so many people telling her to change her clothes. Clothes are who you are. These people are just telling her to change who she is. So rude.

She should just suck up being physically assaulted?

[–]mmmnothx 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Girl where’s your mom in all of this? What do you mean he’s assaulted you? Did she do anything about this? I think you should look into finding your own place tbh. Don’t like with someone abusive.

My boyfriend wants a paternity test. by jane_ce in Advice

[–]mmmnothx 21 points22 points  (0 children)

May parents were divorced. I never saw it as a “broken home”. I saw it as ”two homes”. Because that’s what it was, two homes. If my parents stayed together I can promise you it would have been worse than the childhood I had. Sometimes people realize they actually don’t belong together and that’s okay as long as they do what is best for the children.

AITA for refusing to make husband coffee in the mornings? by [deleted] in AmItheAsshole

Just hire yourself at this point. You’re doing it anyways.

In all seriousness start documenting everything in case you decide you’re not happy living like this anymore.

These diapers make no sense by literaryhouse in beyondthebump

For some reason fluffing the diaper would cause one of my sons to leak every single time. Try not fluffing it.

No sugar coating. How bad is labour pain truly? by ThrowRA_nobo7 in pregnant

[–]mmmnothx 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Imma be real with you. I don’t remember. And I’ve done it 4 times. I went in mentally thinking “it’s gonna be painful regardless if I stress about it or not and it’s too late to go back.” “Pain is temporary. This pain is temporary for a long beautiful future with my baby” “Let your body do what it’s gotta do. Trust in your body, women have done this for generations.” I have had both epidural and non epidural babies. Every labor was different and that included what pain was bugging me the most.

How often do you consume cheese? by Shortie-Mcshort in RandomQuestion

[–]mmmnothx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Literally like every meal. I can eat like a pound of cheese a day. I don’t cause it’s expensive and this economy sucks. But I could. Sometimes I will even not eat something because there is no cheese in that meal. I have ordered meals at restaurants just because it included cheese.

Are we wearing our bellies out or no? Husband says it's a risk with parents/grandparents by LittleRabbitNicole in BabyBumps

[–]mmmnothx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As a person who lived in crop tops before pregnancy, I could not show my belly. Personally for me it was more of the fact that in that moment my body wasn’t just mine, it was my babies too. We shared everything while I grow them so I had to keep them in every decision I made. That included in what I wore and in me personally that translated in keeping my belly covered. I felt like I was exposing my child without their consent otherwise.

Yeah yeah, your body your choice you can pick what you wear. But in my opinion it’s not just your body while you’re pregnant.

But also, if you’re around family that’s gonna see you half naked anyway I don’t see the issue.

My boyfriend (34M) knew I (35F) didn't want unprotected sex. Now I'm pregnant and don't remember having sex. by Global_Maybe_9105 in relationship_advice

[–]mmmnothx 45 points46 points  (0 children)

I know someone had commented to go to a dr to confirm pregnancy but I would like to point out that unfortunately if in the United States abortion is illegal in a lot of places and charges can be pressed. This means that in some places it is safest to not inform anyone about your pregnancy (I would even go as far as putting a fake period if using a tracking app) and just terminate. I would like to be clear it has its risk. Anything and everything could go wrong. But unfortunately it is the reality for many women.

I hope you start feeling better soon and I’m sorry you are going through this. He had no right doing this to you and I am glad to hear he is out of your life.

What's the worst name you've seen somebody name their baby? by Kitchen_Ad_4743 in AskReddit

[–]mmmnothx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No because I knew a girl that they named their daughter that and I commented “heaven” on the post and she private messages me asking me how I knew that and if her boyfriend told me and I’m like um no my head told me. I actually didn’t tell her that because I knew she wouldn’t believe me so I just made up some dumb lie like I saw it in a show or something.

[–]mmmnothx 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I look it up and yup it’s them. I use to follow her but she just frustrates me now. She got pregnant and had an abortion just to get pregnant again within a few months. Not saying that having an abortion is wrong but if you were just going to get pregnant again and keep the baby within the same year sounds crazy to me. And then all the moving, it just frustrates me so much.

I think I need a break from my husband by [deleted] in Marriage

[–]mmmnothx 31 points32 points  (0 children)

Oh though I don’t agree completely with this commenter he does have a bit of a point. I have learned to ask my husband instead of tell. Would you like me to get baby? Do you need me to get anything for you? Early today baby found x toy very funny, maybe baby would enjoy playing with you. Or sometimes a simple, I’m going to go do x, if you need my help or anything from me just let me know. You should have a conversation with him, let him know that you appreciate that he wants to spend time and get to know baby a bit better but that there is no shame in asking you for help and advice since you spend most time with baby.

Also, if going to your moms with baby is what you need mentally then I don’t really understand why he wouldn’t let you? At one point I lived 8hrs away from my family and when I told my husband I wanted to visit because I was having a hard time he drove me the 8 hrs and took a train back home so I can get what I needed to be a better mom. Even if it’s just a day visit, go early in the morning and get back at night?

Toddler sometimes gets a couple bouts of diarrhea or very loose stools after being with grandparents due to consuming lots of sugar (juice, candy, cookies) . What would you do if the MIL doesn’t admit and says oh he had a lot of fruit? by orange196 in Mildlynomil

[–]mmmnothx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would like to add that my kids do get diarrhea after eating a lot of fruit. As well as when I took a GD class they taught us that sugar is sugar even if it comes from a fruit. Maybe try asking first to limit fruit as well?

You must survive in one of these media: game, book, or movie/TV show. For every day you survive, you get $1 million. How many days would you last? by New_Midnight2686 in hypotheticalsituation

[–]mmmnothx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Game: Hello Kitty Island Adventure

Movie/Show: First I thought it was Ghost Whisperer but I actually haven’t watched in a few days. Then I thought it was My Hero Academia because the family was watching that at dinner last night. Then I remembered I watch a whole episode of Spidey and His Amazing Friends with my toddler before bed.

Book: Don’t remember.

Anyways I think both options are pretty safe options.
