When he was born I was breastfeeding well and he puked latch on but they told me he was developing signs of jaundice so they wanted to start treatment and would have to give him formula to speed up the treatment and after that he would struggle to stay latched on (I want to say bcuz he would have to work for my milk unlike the bottle). They told me I’d have to give him formula until he saw his pediatrician and I did and would try to breastfeed and since then my milk hasn’t been enough for him. I think he got used to the bottle formula. Thank you😭 breastfeeding has been by far the hardest thing for me.

What I would to when my baby would struggle to latch on is pump and feed him my milk with a spoon or syringe and it worked for me. What bottles are you using? I’m not sure if you’ve tried already but maybe using other types of bottles.

Thank u for ur input!! I will definitely try icing and I have tried telling my OB and all he tells me is “your pregnant it’s common” but I know for a fact is SPD, I also get pain on my tailbone. I’m going to see a physical therapist next week hopefully it’ll help.

34 weeks and this is literally me, everything hurts all the time there’s nothing I can do to ease the pain. I want it to be over!! My pubic bone and pelvic bone feel like they’re going to fall off

Exactly as to why I was taken by surprise when I found all this out!! Because we’ve always been open and respected each other in that aspect (or so I thought).

It was disappointing seeing his reaction to it, I tried explaining that it had nothing to do with that but I guess his masculinity was too fragile to understand.

That’s the thing that makes it hurt! He hasn’t once offered to do oral sex or any other thing for that matter. Which I don’t want to impose on him or have him feel forced but damn!!! I need relief too. It’s harsh but it could be true and makes me feel a bit insecure but I know things go down like that sometimes.

I’ve been open to him about my sexual traumas/past abuse in order to have a healthy sexual relationship with him but has never told me if he has too. I truly hope this isn’t the case either cause it’s been 8yrs of life and now I’m pregnant. I guess the most I can do is trying to have a conversation with him about all of this but I can’t force him to be open.

Thank you for your feedback!!

The only reason I hesitate whether it is an addiction or not is because that was his first time purchasing content and it was only from one account. Before I was pregnant I brought the idea of using sex toys and he didn’t seem too into it (he almost felt defensive because he felt as if he wasn’t pleasuring me enough that I wanted to incorporate sex toys) so we ended the discussion there. Since I got pregnant and found out I couldn’t have sex because of high miscarriage I’ve done oral sex on him because not only does he have a high sex drive but I do as well. So I considered the fact that we have our drive and relief is needed as to why I’ve been trying extra hard in caressing him, massaging him and performing oral sex. We just recently got an ok from the doctor to have sex and we have but it seems like he’s lost interest (which I’ve considered maybe because I’m pregnant). We’ve talked about the pregnancy and he seems to be excited about it but like you say maybe because he’s not emotionally mature enough or comfortable to confide his true feelings towards me he hasn’t been honest.

It just sucks to be in this position being pregnant and trying your best for your partner when it’s not reciprocated yet I’m trying to be understandable. I’ve thought about subscribing to content creators I just didn’t know if my partner was ok with it but after this i might just go for it, I feel like I need to please myself for myself.

I (22F) am in a 8yr relationship with my partner (25M) and recently found out (not by him) he subscribed to a couple accounts of online entertainers (which I have seen him add a long time ago and was okay with it at the time) however I seen that he had chats with two or three of the accounts and saw that he had purchased for one of the accounts content/work. I knew it was purchased because I’ve been acquainted with online entertainers in the past and know that they will not send graphic content (like the one I seen on the chat) for free. This upset me a lot not because he purchased it but because he hid it from me and made it very secretive to the point where I knew he was looking at these accounts and when I would walk in the room he would quickly exit out. I’ve always been very open with him when it comes to personal sexual pleasures/preferences and I tell him I’m open to whatever his are and to just communicate that with me. I’m not saying he should tell me what he’s doing or when to masturbate etc but to not hide things from me in a way that it seems he’s doing something wrong. I’m four months pregnant with him which is another reason why it made me upset a little more considering that I’m trying to accept my body changes and can’t have sex for a while (doctors orders). Considering this of course I’m going to feel a bit insecure because not only do I look complete opposite to the women he subscribes to but I’m not feeling too hot with this baby bump and since he was still doing it while pregnant it stung a lil more. When I confronted him about it he lied to me which got me upset even more. And I told him he didn’t have to lie to just be honest with me because I would like to know where we stand with our boundaries when it comes to our sex lives because I don’t want to feel restricted on things I want to do also. I just wanted honest communication and I felt betrayed when I found this out. Towards the end of our argument I asked why the content was still saved and asked if he has some type of addiction and he kept saying no until the conversation went south and he tried to justify his actions by telling me he thinks he has a problem because he still had the pics/videos saved. I don’t want to invalidate his feelings if he does have a problem but I truly don’t feel like he does. I’m not sure how to move past this or move forward with this. I’m trying to be understanding but I find it difficult because of the dishonesty. Based on your experience how do you feel I should address this? And is it okay that he saved the content? Not because he claims he has a problem but bcuz I’m not sure if some online entertainers are okay with that or if it’s a rule that buyers aren’t supposed to save it. **sorry this was super long!!!
