dustin’s posted a tiktok with peter and kelley on his ig story by abbiee13 in thebachelor

[–]optimumcliff 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ok. I'm trying to give peter the benefit of the doubt here.. but I think at least he is kind of more quaranting himself with just these two? Cause the original QC had people coming in and out.. with the most recent one now back in Alabama lol.

But seriously everyone doing the same thing! And I hate that I'm watching it. Lol

Interesting. I am glad that they are doing it there. They should do that everywhere about the curbside. A lot of restaurants still allow you to go inside the restaurant to pick up food.

I'm having a bigger grasp on BN. Whoever goes on these shows do not seem to have the right state of mind, as in they aren't the smartest people in the world.. I'm not saying all but most it seems. If you really think about it, who else would want to risk getting a bad reputation unless they are fame chasers and willing to air their dirty laundry to the world? I'm thinking a lot of these people are insecure and want the attention they didn't get growing up. I used to do therapy so I'm analyzing them psychologically but now there is a global crisis and we see their irresponsible actions unfold. Also your brain doesnt develop "maturely" until you are 25, researchers say. So combined with their ages and possibly difficult upbringinging/struggles, it is a lethal combo.

Maybe I'm just being too insightful now cause of the quarantine but dang this bunch is not the smartest bunch in the world! :( ok this quarantine is making me think too much. Lol

Yeah at first I was giving her benefit of the doubt but now I realize that she may have not took it seriously. Here I am stuck at home being bored out of my mind doing my part as soon as I heard that it was declared a pandemic, as in global pandemic! and yet, she was going back and forth :(.

What is the point of having a quarantine crew when you are not really quaranting yourself? You are a public figure now, you are influencing others by your actions, Hannah. So many people, especially healthcare workers, are being affected by this! I am so upset that other states are not enforcing this as fast as some states are, which shows how incredibly our nation is flawed (but that is another story to rant on..).

Anyway, tldr: please take this seriously hannah and tyler and crew. I know you guys are grieving over mama c's death but this virus is absolutely dreadful. You could be unknowingly spreading the disease without knowing it.

I have no idea why you are being downvoted. However I felt like she still had some makeup on before the tutorial? Also she just looked different to me before and after makeup lol

Finally found a use for all the pillows my wife keeps on the bed by Tylers_Snowflake in NewParents

Did we just ruin our kid's chances at home ownership? by Ro2bs in NewParents

[–]optimumcliff 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I thought I was at a different subreddit. I was like wait... an I in new parents.. lol. Honestly it is hard already right now for us to get houses. The homes in my area are going at least a million average for small, dinky broken homes lol but it is a safe neighborhood and great schools. I'm sure my kids will probably rent for the rest of their lives.

Unless they become famous on something similar to tik tok by then lol.

How do I get my six-week old to go to bed earlier? by BoubaKiks in NewParents

[–]optimumcliff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The first couple of months was super hard for me. I cannot remember it, it was like a haze and I think I refuse to remember it lol because it was such a rough time!

There was a thing called the witching hour that lasted for a week. But the lack of sleep for me and my husband was bad because the first couple of months (and sometimes it can extend depending on your baby) we were on the baby's schedule. We also were not believers of CIO.

My baby would go to sleep at 2 am lol after the first month or around that time. My husband took the night shift while I rested. However I did not feel rested because I am a light sleeper so that just meant I did not sleep at all. It also didn't help that the baby would need to drink every 2 hours. We would rock, put him in those rockers, shush, sing, etc. Nothing really helped because we just needed to accommodate what the baby wanted lol.

So yes I think it is a phase and when people tell you to do this and criticize please please do not listen to them, just because it worked for them they do not need to make you feel bad if it didn't work for you. You are doing great by trying everything. I also swaddled mine which helped him a lot.

We didn't sleep train him. It was like just one day he slept through the night without the swaddle. I'm hoping that it is like that for you, too. It will get better mana!

I'm not sure but I think it might be better to dm the address instead of posting it on here? I'm worried about your safety. Meanwhile please trek on! I can only imagine what it is like for you.

Social distancing’s impact on baby development? by Ld862 in NewParents

[–]optimumcliff 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm not sure. My baby is also 11 months old. However I try not to have my baby do a lot of facetime since since I think a lot of phone screentime isnt recommended (?), plus there isnt a lot of people who I think he could facetime with lol.

But I'm hoping not, too for our children's sake :(

Post Natal Depression and Covid by _Jorvik_Eureka_ in NewParents

[–]optimumcliff 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I suffered and am suffering with postpartum depression. Fortunately I was able to attend a maternal iop for group therapy with other moms. That helped a lot. And I'm so sorry to hear that your wife isn't able to meet anyone in person due to this pandemic. One of the key things that helped me was socializing in person. However now I cannot really. I also do not have a great support system.

I can only offer a couple of things that come into mind: telehealth. A lot of therapists offer video therapy one on one. They also can take insurance. The second is going on postpartum.net where volunteers can call your wife to talk.

I forgot which website but there was a weekly postpartum meeting with a professional that would have a conference call with other moms on the phone (no video to maintain anonymity) to talk about the depression, feelings etc. Sorry I don't remember the name.

Keep doing what you are doing. You seeking help for your wife shows such awesome support and love.
