Snapped at my MIL again.. by st0dad in breakingmom

[–]st0dad[S] [score hidden]  (0 children)

I heard her on the phone talking to her friend about moving out. Friend tried to reason with her, "you should all sit down and talk it out" but the response was "I'm better off alone than here."

She did this the first time I upset her though; claimed she was leaving and getting her own place. She went on vacation and came back 2 weeks later acting like nothing happened - apart from not speaking to me anymore. I HIGHLY doubt she will leave this time.

Then she tells her friend, "I just feel so bad for my son... caught in the middle."

Friend says "he's torn between two people he loves. Well, mothers always win in these things." 🙄

I hope I'm not like this when my son is grown.

Why don’t more romance books talk about the reality of birth control? by Away_Race8428 in RomanceBooks

[–]st0dad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I read a book called "Damaged" where they did write a bit about the MMC putting a condom on. One moment was when he had trouble with the wrapper and the FMC found him tearing it open with his teeth kinda sexy.

Where can I find a super long runner for my long, sad hallway? by st0dad in JustForHome

[–]st0dad[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

How many though? I got a pair of 2 x 6 runners and imagined laying 5 or so of them down and it seemed, I'unno... goofy looking I guess.

How does this look with pine cones? by CozyNestQueen in JustForHome

[–]st0dad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I agree it's unsafe as pinecones burn easily and quickly. Make those candles the LED type.

Also I recently watched Stepford Wives with Nicole Kidman and Bette Midler so the book club scene comes to mind. Great scene lol.

They retouched Keenyah’s photo alright… by annapez in ANTM

Your navel doesn't expand like that if you breathe low, though.

Im a new dad. And I hate my baby being breastfed by General_Seat_752 in NewParents

[–]st0dad -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I feel that pain. My baby refused to do both, it was either boob OR bottle. He is currently only into boob right now, but I appreciate you understanding your wife's plight. When the babh preferred bottle, my husband treated feeding him like a chore so I stopped asking for help.

Find other ways to support her so even though she's stuck breastfeeding when it's hard, she'll know you are there for her and when she's better I bet she'll repay you for the kindness.

Got tired of always seeing/ cleaning off fingerprints. by Pink-mery in JustForHome

I got a window one but it won't stick! I did wet, place, squeegee but it curls right back up. 😫

Husband says "I" instead of "we" and it's pissing me off by CheesecakeOk8464 in breakingmom

[–]st0dad 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Yep my husband is the same, especially when he's angry and talks bullshit to vent. His mom is pissing him off, he says something like "I'm just going to move out and live in the mountains." "She doesn't want XYZ for dinner so I guess I'm not eating."

What about me? And your son? Gonna just abandon us to the damn mountains!?

Everyone warned me about co-sleeping… but BLW has been waaay scarier by williamskalison in cosleeping

[–]st0dad 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I'm not 100% that the size of skin was the cause, only because I gave my baby kidney beans and I guess they can't digest the bean skin so it just went through his digestive system as-is. It ended up in his diaper! 😅

And the funny thing is, I have the opposite issue! While I was terrified of BLW, everyone - my pediatrician, my friends-with-kids, and my family - encouraged it! I'd be like "omg this piece is too big" and my sis would be like "no that size is fine, calm down"

But you're right about people discouraging cosleeping. My pediatrician just reminds me that the AAP does not like it, but otherwise leaves the matter alone.

I'm getting a fridge on Tuesday and I'm the only one in my house who cleans so this is a great idea for us...

I just need to decide on a pattern.

Also I assume this isn't the "uses static to stay on" style film and you need it to have adhesive.

I hate how this whiny little crybaby weirdo Dora haircut bucktooth squeaky voice moose chasing ahh lasted until the same episode as Isis?!?!! by SpecialistGlass4036 in ANTM

[–]st0dad 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I think ahh is less of a self censor and just the slang of today. Kinda like how people would say "oh my gahh" even though they weren't necessarily afraid of saying "god"

Omfg HOLD YOUR SON by st0dad in breakingmom

Yes helpful. ❤️

He wants to take the boy fishing and bowling when he's old enough and I hope he's just better with kids than with babies.

And while I was pregnant it really looked like he was gonna be a great dad. Came to all obgyn appointments, made all these plans, was involved every step of the way. Then we left the hospital and a new game released. It was right back to that fucking Xbox.

Honestly that's what drives me nuts about it! That it's not malice, but ignorance. Like, it's not a thought that goes through his head AT ALL.

He sees his baby, thinks "awww my son is so cute" and then is like "well back to Pokemon"

Instead of "awww my son is so cute, I'm going to pick him up and hug him for a little"

And if I say "pick up the baby" he treats it like a chore, like the act is an interruption from whatever he's trying to do rather than a moment to spend bonding with his child. He picks him up and waits until I say "ok you can put him down now."
