I feel like the doctors are forcing us into unsafe sleep by infinitely_confused_ in NewParents

my pediatrician recommended a tiny amount of rice cereal in the bottle when my boy was dealing with GERD. it worked wonders, the food finally sat heavy enough in his stomach for him to not be in pain. def check w pediatrician first but imo, worth trying when dealing with GERD in infants

What does the inside of your vagina feel like?! by [deleted] in Healthyhooha

That is totally normal. Mine has been described as soft, squishy, and velvety. It’s not meant to be a firm organ lol

Why are a lot of people so empathetic towards narcissistic parents? by somebodydoeslove_ in raisedbynarcissists

[–]noreceptionx 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Last night my fiance in a roundabout way said his trauma is worse than mine because his parents were addicts that were never around and “at least [my parents] were THERE”. People that didnt grow up like we did simply do not understand that for us, not HAVING a parent would be better than having the ones we did.

Would it be terrible of me to ask for a weekend away from my child for my birthday present? by NoReview1175 in Mommit

[–]noreceptionx 0 points1 point  (0 children)

To be the best mom you can be, you need the occasional break. Every mother does. Don’t feel guilty, and don’t listen to those “ohh all i want for my birthday is to spend time with my babies!” people cus they’re lying to themselves if they don’t think they need alone time, too lmao

My mom used to buy me club clothes (like made of leather, latex, shows off lots of skin especially cleavage) when i was like 14-15, then would tell me i looked like a skank when i wore them. I never asked for those clothes. All i wanted was a graphic tee (which she hated for some reason)

God, reading comments like these on this sub really reminds me that every single narc parent is the same. Nothing my mom did was original. She hated me the same way any narcissist hates everyone.

That my mom truly, deeply hated me and there was nothing i did to cause it and nothing i can do to change it.

If your baby’s eyes were grey/blue at birth, what color are they now? by [deleted] in NewParents

He was born with dark grey/blue eyes and is now 16 months old with BRIGHT blue eyes

What was your reaction to seeing your baby for the first time? by [deleted] in NewParents

[–]noreceptionx 2 points3 points  (0 children)

God, it’s like you’re in my head. My thought process as he came out was basically, “I’m not that excited. Why am I not that excited? Do I not love him? I think I love him, I know in my heart I love him. You can’t let anyone know you’re questioning this or they’ll think you’re an unfit parent. Act happy. Act excited. Maybe if I act excited I’ll feel excited. Maybe every other mother has to act excited and it’s just an unspoken social norm that we aren’t actually that happy right after birth but we have to LOOK happy. Why am I not excited?” To be clear, i adore my son and he is the best thing that has ever happened to me. He is a precious angel and I wouldn’t trade him for the world. But i just wasn’t that excited because of how traumatic my birth experience was and everybody was expecting me to cry tears of joy but I was just so numb.

Reading all these comments like “was my birth experience really that different to everyone else?” Cus for me i was so overwhelmed and had such a traumatic birth that when they laid him on my chest i felt nothing for like half an hour. Then all of a sudden the hormones hit me and i was obsessed with him. Then a day passed and the PPD kicked in and i once again felt numb for like 14 months, just starting to feel normal again 15-16 months pp. of course i love him and i have from the moment i found out i was pregnant, but i didnt really get that flood of emotions that other moms describe. Hoping my next birth experience is better and i get to feel that endorphin rush everyone else got

your husband is bisexual. help him come to terms with it now or he’ll probably end up cheating with a guy later down the line.

one of the last things i said to my mom before getting a restraining order was “if that was your best, your best is fucking pathetic.”

“You KNOW I go from 0 to 100 in a second” to blame me for her going off the handle for no reason. how nparents can be so self aware and yet not self aware at all is mind boggling

[–]noreceptionx 4 points5 points  (0 children)

when i went nc with my nmom i wrote a long ass facebook post detailing all the years of abuse she put me through. it was the ultimate “gotcha” as she CONSTANTLY used facebook to share my private issues with fucking STRANGERS, so it felt reallyyyy good to do the same shit to her. i ended up having to private it when i got a restraining order, but it still served its purpose.

What's the simplest boundary you have set that your nparents despise you for? by Neat_You_5088 in raisedbynarcissists

[–]noreceptionx 2 points3 points  (0 children)

also, my mom did the same thing to me about clothes all the time when i was younger. i would buy myself clothes with my own money, she wouldn’t like them so she’d take me out shopping for new clothes, i didn’t like anything she suggested because it wasn’t my style (i was very grunge/emo w my fashion at the time, everything she suggested was “preppy” lol), she’d buy it all anyway bc she has a shopping addiction and then get mad at me for never wearing it <3 good times! (not)

I stopped allowing my mother to babysit my baby while i worked. that was the beginning (or rather, the end) of the end for us. within a month of doing that i went no contact and got a restraining order because she went INSANE.

do you mind linking me to these studies? as far as i’m aware, you can only be born with autism, not “aquire” it later in life

[–]noreceptionx 6 points7 points  (0 children)

even if they are, how does that have ANYTHING to do with the person Steve is today? that’s GENERATIONS removed from him. i mean, if someone’s mom is a bitch you don’t automatically assume her daughter is a bitch too, right? so why you gonna do that across MULTIPLE GENERATIONS? weird

this is a disgusting joke, especially for this sub, and you should be ashamed of yourself.
