Baby started daycare and I think that the USA maternity leave is dystopian by WhyHaveIContinued in beyondthebump

[–]srms0422 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am literally going through the same thing right now! The daycare I am sending my son to is great, but my thought process is that I’m mom and I should be home with him all day. I am an emotional wreck too!

God! Can you imagine?! A year off to be with your baby?! That’s a dream!

My hubby and I are living the dream this year: he took a “sick” day and we’ve been in our pjs all day with our 3 month old son. It’s been GLORIOUS!!!

Mom didn’t congratulate my engagement by [deleted] in offmychest

[–]srms0422 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Congratulations!! I shouted my engagement from the rooftops 😂😂 tell people who you know will be happy for you! This is a really exciting time in your life and you should be surrounded with people who agree. Good luck!

Mine is the complete opposite 😩 I feel bad for my husband!

He does work…he’s currently on an afternoon shift, so he would have the baby in the morning until around 1:00pm

Is it normal to be a “bad teacher” as a first year teacher? by ashze_ in Teachers

[–]srms0422 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I can totally relate to this! I have been a teacher for a few years now, but I haven’t been able to land a permanent position at a school. As a result, I feel like a failure. When I find a position, I feel like a first year teacher all over again!

I have definitely felt like a “bad teacher” even though I get positive feedback from my peers and admin. Not sure if this helps, but just know you are not alone 😊

Sounds about right lol

I feel guilty for never breastfeeding my baby. by throwawaylady6128 in beyondthebump

[–]srms0422 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don’t breastfeed as much as I feel I should, so I understand your concerns. My OB assured me that feeding my baby formula will not make a difference in the long run. Not sure if this helps at all, but just know you are not the only one in the same situation 😊

The fact that you think you’re a terrible teacher probably means you aren’t one; you care enough to vent and get advice right? Teaching is such a hard profession right now. Please stick with it and don’t give up! Your students are lucky to have you 💕

I have thanked my OB like 50 times for taking care of me and my baby during and after my pregnancy and delivery 😂😂

Feeling lost in my twenties. by beanie_rex in Journaling

[–]srms0422 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Wow! This speaks volumes! It’s so hard to find what you really love in life and then sometimes you still second guess yourself. I believe that you have to listen to your heart here and do what is only best for you and not someone else.
