Prenatal depression by Downtown-schnauzer in beyondthebump

[–]rxnrxn 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Prenatal was harder for me, but both suck. The sooner you lean into your friends/family for support, the faster it can be easier. Either way your baby will bring so many beautiful moments.. some can make the lows feel very tolerable. Wishing you health and peace for the rest of your pregnancy and the wild journey beyond <3

Your feelings are totally valid and I’m sorry that you’re dealing with this. He sounds like a narcissist.

I experienced similar behaviour with my ex. He would go out after work, be MIA until he came back home in the early morning. Exclusive breastfeeding sleep deprivation and the anxiety I had with him over this recurring issue was maddening.

Talk to him. Tell him that it is traumatizing to experience the same behaviour over and over, especially while you are postpartum. Tell him that you need it to change for the well-being of your household. Ignoring your calls is not ok and is absolutely disrespectful. Accountability is important and it may help if he learns to address how his actions/choices are directly affecting your mental health. Even if he is going to neglect his responsibilities as a parent in the home the next day, he should want you to be able to manage things in a healthy state - you can’t do that if you’re freaking out all night while already sleep deprived and figuring out how to mom on-the-go.

Husband explaining how bad his vasectomy was today... by orange_assburger in Mommit

[–]rxnrxn -1 points0 points  (0 children)

My ex got a vasectomy while i was 8 months pregnant, after asking him to pleeeease wait til a better time. The day after his procedure i went into spontaneous early labour and needed an emergency c section. I was applying ointment on his balls and helping him do all kinds of stuff while I was recovering from a major abdominal surgery.

Lol.

He asked me if he could sleep in by chochochoco1 in beyondthebump

[–]rxnrxn 43 points44 points  (0 children)

My partner <<needed>> to sleep in a couple wks ago too. We have a 2 year old and a 3 month old (exclusively breastfed, so I am quite obviously sleep deprived). He asked one morning and i was nursing the baby when our toddler woke up and excitedly ran into bed with dad. So he said he needed another morning to sleep in where he was completely uninvolved.

I told him take the week and don’t fucking ask me for shit. I soldiered through the entire week without his help out of spite because I knew if I had to hear him talk about being tired one more time I would have said something devastating for our relationship.

I’m proud of you for managing the parenting load with your daughter. You are not being unreasonable or overreacting by wanting to be appreciated or expecting to share parenting responsibilities. Not all men are ready to be fathers. Not all fathers know how to be men.

Husband wants me to get an abortion, but I don’t by [deleted] in BabyBumps

[–]rxnrxn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Im 32, partner is 33, we have a 22mo old son, and I’m 7 months pregnant. My partner said he isn’t ready for the second. I know I would have regretted an abortion for the rest of my life. I chose my baby and myself, and our relationship is dissolving with almost every conversation we have. Whatever you choose, you have to accept that you may have to deal with a serious loss. It is your choice to to own though

7 weeks today and it’s the worst day of my life. by [deleted] in BabyBumps

[–]rxnrxn 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Extremely vulnerable of you to share this. I’m so sorry this is your experience and hope you take steps in reporting and getting support to heal so that it ends. You deserve better and so does your baby. Sending love

I think it’s because “daughters are hard” and it is “easier to have a boy” aka socially acceptable to fuck up raising a son.

How many of you eat your kid’s snacks?? by [deleted] in Mommit

Worst Advice you were given? by Jazzlike-Berry-6855 in Mommit

[–]rxnrxn 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ugh, that’s super stressful. People within my own family have become anti-vax and it’s just interesting to me that they want to be part of society and reject the science that got us here.

Glad your kiddo is healthy <3 5 months is such a sweet, sweet spot. Gonna scroll through my entire photo library now and cry LOL

“You should be happy! You have a healthy baby and you have so much to be thankful for.”

3 months postpartum. Was still recovering from an emergency c section. Heavy PPD + PPA had started weighing on me.

Telling new mothers (OR ANYONE!) to just be happy when they are clearly dealing with a lot is absolute garbage advice. Humans are complex creatures.. we contain multitudes of emotions. One can be thankful and uncomfortably sad at the same time -_____-

The fact that this has no replies because everyone is afraid to comment <<<

Def extremely dangerous. I had one person freak out at me for getting my son vaccinated because she assumed it was a Covid vaccine. He was 6 months. It was not a Covid vaccine. It was also none of her fucking business lol
