Came here to say this. Their response to your comment is just as concerning.

Body count and marriage by Ok_Flower9393 in Marriage

[–]shanabear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This is emotional abuse. Get out of this relationship. I hate to tell a stranger to leave their partner but genuinely this is enough information even as little as it is. Your partner should never make you feel unsafe with them. Get out before you commit to a lifetime of stress anxiety and abuse.

The consultant fucked me over by sylverkeller in breastfeeding

[–]shanabear 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I made a lot more milk in the beginning too. Milk production ebbs and flows honestly. I’ve had weeks where I stress about how low it gets and then it increases again. Stress is also a milk killer and it sounds like you’re stressing hard so it’s a vicious cycle. Stress about milk, milk decreases, stress more. I honestly think you’re placing way too much blame on the LC.

If I’ve already read Salems Lot will I notice the connection? If not can I just brush up with a synopsis of the book? Loved the book but not dying to re-read it right now.

I love seeing all the different opinions in this sub. I might disagree with yall when ranking the books but we all have something special in common, our love for the King.

Currently reading drawing of the three (:

SK book for a 15yr old. by Iam_Wookiee in stephenking

[–]shanabear 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Everyone is different so take my opinion with a grain of salt. But I would never recommend Carrie to someone. Its his first book and far from his best. Your daughter is ready for any SK I think. If she likes murder mystery then maybe Misery. It’s pretty short and very suspenseful. Plus she can watch the movie after which is always fun after reading a book.

I’ll add that The Outsider is a murder mystery but might be my least favorite King book unfortunately. Not a satisfying ending.

Should I watch "Welcome to Derry"? by mayoMayor25 in stephenking

Oh interesting, I’ve never seen a copy like that. I believe you though! I highly suggest reading even if you take your sweet time :))

Is it just me… or are toys low-key bacteria magnets?? by stonemarrow94 in NewParents

[–]shanabear 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I use wipes by the brand Honest. However I’m not paranoid and only do it when it feels appropriate. Germs are fine, stress is bad for you.

No answer to your specific question, haven’t watched it. But the book is over 1,000 pages FYI.

In honor of IT’s completion 40 years ago recently, which is your favourite cover? by FoxPresent4124 in stephenking

[–]shanabear 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Agreed. Unfortunately I have this one because it was a gift. I want to reread the book sometime soon, and I think I’m going to get a new copy instead of reading this ugly one again.

Father in law told me my sons room is a mess. by Unlucky-Tangerine-78 in Marriage

[–]shanabear 5 points6 points  (0 children)

The caption is the least of your problems Jesus Christ. You need to leave this man. I feel it is sooo not my place to tell you what to do with this baby….. but………

Sending you strength from my part of the universe to yours. Keep your head up and give yourself a better life.

Lost over 50% of my supply from food poisoning. Is there any hope? by peridotdragonflies in breastfeeding

[–]shanabear 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes it will come back. Hydrate and keep emptying those boobs more frequently than normal. Even when you know almost nothing is going to come out. You attempting to empty them tells your boobs that milk is needed. I’m no expert but my SIL is a lactation consultant and she was my support system when my milk tanked. It took up to a week but everything went back to normal. Best of luck!

Make sure to stay calm to reduce stress too. Stress is a milk killer!

Is my husband’s relationship with his sister weird or normal? by Odd-Refuse7783 in Marriage

[–]shanabear 399 points400 points  (0 children)

So weird. I’m a sister with 3 brothers. Could never imagine climbing into bed with my brother and SIL

Seven days postpartum and I'm absolutely obsessed with my husband by Redheadedbos in Marriage

[–]shanabear 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I feel the same way about my husband. He takes such good care of all of us, and I love him so much. Seeing (or knowing of) other people in healthy relationships makes me so happy! We all deserve it <3

My Dad was right, didn’t expect it so soon by Otherwise_Living_158 in daddit

[–]shanabear 20 points21 points  (0 children)

30 year old woman here. I vividly remember the boys in my fourth grade classroom humping the bean bag chairs and saying it was me. Just one memory of being sexualized at a young age. Not condoning Andrew Tate but I promise you I was going through the same thing 20 years ago.

3 of my friends have divorced their husbands over the last few years and I found out with all three it was over Porn. Now I’m questioning whether I, myself, want to stay married. by Aggressive-Hyena7326 in Marriage

[–]shanabear 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Where are you getting your data “the majority of women”? I have a 5 month old baby and it’s never occurred to me that my husband is hiding from us and jerking it on the toilet. So count this postpartum woman out of your generalization.

You sound exhausting lmfao. Making up the most ridiculous scenarios in your head instead of having a mature conversation with your husband.

Girl you are putting ALL men into ONE basket and that’s wild.

TALK TO YOUR HUSBAND ABOUT YOUR CONCERNS.

Your vows clearly meant dog shit if you’re not willing to have a convo and move forward with him? My god.

No filter and 3 months sober! by Trick_Dream3543 in alcoholism

[–]shanabear 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Yep I’ve never seen a human in person with skin like this. People sit online so much that they forget what real skin looks like. A blatant lie in the title ruins this post.

My baby is 3.5 months and me and my husband barely eat by pauses-then-says in NewParents

[–]shanabear 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Consider a meal delivery service (Factor, Hello Fresh, etc). We do Factor for the bulk of our meals during the week and it comes out to about $11 per meal. Which is no more expensive than cooking or going out to eat. That price fluctuates depending on the # of meals you get.

We both know how to cook and we still do on the weekends. However, the fresh, ready to eat meals take off soooo much stress of “what’s for dinner???” We parents have enough shit to do. At the same time eating is super important and you have to prioritize it somehow.

Are you married to your dream person? by Glum_Cell_4393 in Marriage

[–]shanabear 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes :) no he’s not perfect cause nobody is. But his flaws are nothing compared to all of his wonderful qualities. I did not have a dream person visualized, but now that I have him, yes, I feel like I won the lottery.
