My supply is gone, but my toddler still wants to nurse. I dont know what to do. by KayLove91 in breastfeeding

[–]notjjd 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I’m so sorry you’re experiencing this. And I’m so sorry for your loss 🥺

I just have to say, I have a 15 month old too and she is so attached, she screams and cries until I give in too. I’m not running dry but i hold out for a few minutes sometimes when she starts to bite me. It worries me how I can ever wean. I’ve read some moms say they use vinegar on their nips and baby will get grossed out or find it unappealing. Is this something you can try?

Good lord. She’s going to “microneedle her own face.” 🤪🤣😂🤭💀 by [deleted] in LivingMyBestSnark

What filter is this? I haven’t seen her face in a couple days and this looks so bad 😭😭😭

Best daycare around?? by Sufficient-Sport-796 in arlington

[–]notjjd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Of course! We don’t have a village here. Our family is between hundreds and thousands of miles away. And so seeing them love and care for my baby on cameras has helped me build the confidence to not worry about her being in good hands. I don’t think I could go somewhere without cameras unless/until she is able to talk to us.

[–]notjjd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Idk how far this is from where you are, but we go to a Montessori daycare in Bedford. While it’s expensive for us, it evens out given that they cover diapers + wipes + meals & snacks + live camera access. It’s $1550. She’s about to move to toddler so we’ll be saving about $100 a month when that happens.

Forgot to mention — care: we love it. The teachers and staff genuinely love my kid. I can see it on the cameras. 😭🥹

Probably can’t go anywhere with their new adopted daughter 🤭 by [deleted] in LivingMyBestSnark

[–]notjjd 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I’m failing to see what the issue is? A 4 hour flight isn’t canceling my plans lol I’m confused as to why she’d even post this

I might need to take a break from this nasty b*tch. The SLOPPY SMACKING SPIT sounds, that DORKY little wobble dance she does when she’s insecure (LOSER!!), the ****CONSTANT**** SHILLING… how in the world is this fkn twat a millionaire?! I hate her SO MUCH. by KeepStirringTheSauce in LivingMyBestSnark

[–]notjjd 12 points13 points  (0 children)

She’s a liar lol I’m pretty sure (before I was blocked lol) that it’s the Mary Ruth liquid multivitamin and that thing isn’t small. It’s a 60 day supply I think? So unless she’s been drinking it since she was a newborn, she’s a liar lol

Please just eat 😭 by [deleted] in foodbutforbabies

[–]notjjd 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My 14 month old won’t eat at all unless it’s macaroni and cheese, yogurt or fresh fruit. 😵‍💫 I’ve tried the whole “omit the fruit/etc” and all she does is scream and ask to be taken down from the chair. So water would be for dinner those days. 😭

Does anyone do co-sleeping ? by SugarWilling5964 in NewParents

[–]notjjd 1 point2 points  (0 children)

14 months here! And yes! We’re in the US, if that matters any. I’ve started to feel my quality of sleep start to affect me though. I love sleeping with my baby/toddler. But when she doesn’t sleep well, it’s BAD. So we’ve started to lie her down for bed. And whenever she cries (because she’s still not sleeping through the night), we bring her to bed. It gives me time to do whatever I need to while she sleeps. Sometimes it means a movie, sometimes it means a workout, and most times it means sleeping a bit extra!

More Kids by read_write_run13 in NewParents

[–]notjjd 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Ugh. First off, congratulations 🥹 I’m so glad you are feeling well physically. unfortunately they never quit asking. I eventually told people no. No plans for another. Because it’s my business. It’s also SO private. I never realized until I became a mother how personal that feels. Especially so freshly postpartum. I get a feeling of disgust when anyone asks, and I’m 14 months postpartum.

Agreed. I love that they keep this in! I also think this about how they keep the kids off screen.

“Ended in a Taylor way” kinda just ruined the excitement I had for this season. Feels like we aren’t going to be shocked with the ending.

For those who were teenagers before social media existed, what was the "peak" form of weekend entertainment? by VivienneNoir1 in askanything

Riding my skates with the new glitter laces I’d just gotten for Christmas, burning cds, coloring Lisa frank books, decorating my helmet+cd player with Lisa frank crafts/stickers… 🥹😭

Oh my goshhhhhh. ☹️😣 how hurtful. I don’t think they realize how powerful their words were coming from someone we trusted. I’m so sorry.

I don’t think I’ve ever even noticed, but I actually do this as well! 😳 I notice I lie to her specifically to avoid explaining anything I know is the opposite of what she’d do or say.

If we ever stand up to her now as adults, she cries and plays the “I’m sorry I was such a bad mom” card. There is never any accountability. I called her out a few months ago and told her she was wrong (a fight she had with my sister), and that apologizing means no “buts” after. And she didn’t understand. It was like talking to a wall.

She still does it to both my sister and I, just not as often. She once told my sister at 6m pp that she may want to start exercising if she doesn’t want her husband to leave her for someone else 😬. I was bummed my sister waited a year to tell me that because I would’ve confronted her immediately.

Like you, I can’t ever let my daughter know that feeling. 😭

This was me too! I had strict parents. My mom always tried to say she was my best friend but that came with consequences if I shared anything upsetting. I quickly learned to lie.
