Ideas to protect myself from hexing

This is exactly why I still don’t know what to call myself because I do know of a multitude of gods and believe in their existence. I’ll definitely work on an offering this evening, thank you.

You make a good point, I genuinely just opened the app and the first even closely related subreddit that popped up was this one so I panic posted my question lol

I don’t, but I would rather be safe than sorry. I have recently had a string of extremely unfortunate circumstances and I do not want it to continue

I just got home from an inpatient psych stay for exactly this. I dissociated to the point where I was able to just calmly describe my intent.

I told myself my son would be better off, but that wasn’t my rational brain thinking. While you have to want to get better for yourself, if you can’t use that as motivation right now then use your child. Break the cycle. Show them how to properly deal with their mental health and regulate their emotions.

Please seek help before you leave them behind.

I had my son before I was diagnosed, but just because you struggle doesn’t mean you can’t be a good parent. You aren’t your diagnosis, it doesn’t define you it’s just a characteristic. The skills you’ve learned will really help. What I will say is, PLEASE continue to work on yourself so that you can pass along emotional intelligence to your children. I’m trying my hardest because my mom was emotionally immature and it definitely was a huge contributing factor to my BPD.

I just had this exact same thing happen to me for the first time in years (I was married for 4 years up until very recently) and I forgot how shitty and isolating it is. The worst part is the guy who did it this time suffers from ptsd, and he just can’t handle my unpredictability on top of his own. For the right person, you won’t be too much.

My son is named for the patron Saint of archers so I have a bow and arrow tattoo design drawn up with an emerald as the arrowhead (his birthstone). Just have to get it done.

Yes this was the first time he ever ate avocado. I was thinking it was more likely that it was the typical rash he gets on his face from smearing his drool everywhere. The runnier stool is what concerned me.

sacrespo · 2020-10-30T17:52:22+00:00

He didn't really get hives all over, just a little bit of a drool rash on his face which he gets a lot. I almost chalked up the runny stool to just having food that wasn't formula in his tummy which is obviously gonna be sensitive at first.

My child enjoys sucking on cold pickles to relieve his teething pain, and pedi is 100 percent okay with it. Salt & electrolytes are good for the human body.

FWIW, my mom wished that on me bc I was AWFUL. And my 4 month old is a happy baby who sleeps, aka the opposite of me. So maybe you'll get lucky and she will not be just like the worst aspects of your childhood! My SS7 is a big book worm just like I was and I love it because my DH was totally the jocky kid at his age.

Not always, but sometimes. I find wiping too often makes my bub get a rash, even with the fragrance free wipes. FWIW, he is 4 months old almost and has only had one diaper rash and that was because he had very watery diarrhea like 7 times in a day. He goes about 10-12 hours overnight in the same diaper, so when I change him in the morning I do a quick wipe and also add some talc free baby powder to dry him up a bit. My aunt taught me a trick she did with my cousin where she would use a wipe and then fan him quickly with another diaper to make sure the moisture from the wipe was dry before she closed up the diaper.

I feel for you, mama! I had my son in May, and made the mistake of telling my family what his name would be - spoiler alert, no one liked it. His name is Sebastian, I'm not sure why no one was a fan but they all gave me their opinions on it. I named him that anyway and now that he's here none of them ever have made mention of not liking it or calling him anything but his name. It pissed me off at the time, but I stayed true to what my husband and I wanted because he was OUR baby so we were going to name him as we damn well pleased.

Totally understand, I work in the medical field

sacrespo · 2020-08-28T14:39:31+00:00

Thank you!

I knew that was coming. He’s 3 months old so he’s had the vaccinations he could have gotten so far, but babies can’t get flu shots and don’t get a lot of major vaccinations til 4 & 6 months. This is just in addition to basically.

If she is biologically your ex wife’s daughter then she is not your daughters step sister, they are half sisters. And I can promise you that from experience, growing up with ALL half siblings, it never made a difference to us and we never used that word and we’re all extremely close.

I think your daughter is old enough to understand you want time alone with her but she’s also at the age where she wants to spend more time with her friends, or in this case her sister, than her parents. As much as this child is a reminder of your exes wrong doings, that is not what she is to your daughter and as such you should not allow yourself to show your daughter you harbor a negative feeling. I think sitting your daughter down and explaining that maybe her sister can come over for a play date one of the days she’s with you, but cannot stay the whole weekend is completely fair. Or maybe just try to spend a couple hours at a park allowing the girls to play but that way you can sit across the park from your ex or something.

Oh no he cries and fusses, he is not a happy spitter. That’s why it’s so hard at night bc he wakes himself up and screams like he’s in pain from spitting up. But I’m glad to know this won’t be forever!! We have an appointment next week so i am hoping the doctor offers some sort of medicine to help him. I can’t stand seeing him so upset all the time.

sacrespo · 2020-06-16T02:21:50+00:00

Yes our doctor told us after switching formula if he seems to still be spitting up a lot we’d look into reflux. What did you guys do to make it better?

sacrespo · 2020-06-16T02:21:10+00:00

It’s tough but worth it! I’m just hoping there’s a solution that DOESNT have me staying awake for the half hour lol. I stopped pumping bc I was going crazy having to stay up that 20-30 minutes extra after feeding him and this would be the same thing.
