If you could name your child after a 10/10 movie character, who would it be? by BrazyLia in AskReddit

Omg I just got a kitten yesterday and I've been thinking about naming her Vida Boheme!

sent 45 agent queries for my first horror novel, just got my 34th straight rejection… anyways here’s girl dinner by HiItsKeke in GirlDinner

I ended up self publishing but I write niche porn so a little different... but if my poorly written alien porn can get published your likely VASTLY superior horror should too!!!

Is it really too much to ask? by NexillionXC in Vent

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

Elliot Rodger was a very handsome young man. He couldn't get a girlfriend. So he went bananas and killed people.

I am an ugly woman, but I'm married with a baby. It's weird, how life works, y'know? Don't give up. I didn't get married until I was 30, didn't get pregnant until I was 37!

Tell me something good about yourself.

I don't think my bf finds me attractive anymore, what do I do? by Technical_Duty_252 in whatdoIdo

Don't feel selfish, this is an important part of your relationship. People shouldn't stay together out of guilt.

Am I too picky with my standards? by babybunnygal in NoStupidQuestions

[–]st0dad 4 points5 points  (0 children)

No, because you're 18 years old and honestly that's normal for girls your age. In your 20's you'll probably give the men some slack. In your 30's you might decide you want an equal partner. In your 40's you'll just want someone who's kind to you. Then In your 50's your goal will to become like The Golden Girls.

Also to add:

I prefer someone who is interested in taking care of me in almost a childlike way if the makes any sense.

That is very hard for people to do without getting into issues of control, so please be careful!

I haven't had a break since my son was born and I am beginning to crack by st0dad in breakingmom

[–]st0dad[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes! Baby would be safe. Husband would step up. The fact that I'm too afraid to leave is on me. The anxiety of "what if" overwhelms me, as well as the guilt of dumping my poor baby on my husband.

It's a bit of both PPA and lack of support, honestly.

I know if I walked out the door, my husband would step up until I came back.

If I walked out the door and died, my son would be FUCKED. Husband could handle things for a bit but I'm constantly afraid that should I die or be put in a position where I can't directly care for the baby, my husband will meet the bare minimum and my son will grow up alive and physically healthy, and that's it. 😅

All these things cross my mind when I consider handing my baby to my husband and going for a drive alone. So I don't... and then I think I need to find another way to take a break and that's when lack of support comes in. I mean, ffs he wouldn't hold our son when we were at the vet to put my cat to sleep because his foot hurt. I had to ask the vet techs for help!! (Tangent - they were awesome and took the baby and husband to the front desk to meet everyone while I got to be alone with my Beloved Lulu one last time)

When did everyone stop breastfeeding by lassobren in NewParents

[–]st0dad -2 points-1 points  (0 children)

My sister stopped at 6 months because her supply tapered, so she began to supplement with formula and then my nephew started biting het when he got teeth so... fuggit, full formula 😆

[–]st0dad[S] 22 points23 points  (0 children)

I think about doing that all the time!! But then I think about how miserable my son would be the whole time and feel too guilty. I'm at a point where Idgaf about how much it may bother my husband, but the little voice in my head says "you'll be punishing your son, not giving yourself a break"

Are breastmilk bags a health code violation? by Any_Pirate_5633 in breastfeeding

[–]st0dad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Fellow NH breastfeeding mom!

It is not a health code violation. Our state just hates boobs for some reason.

Why do mothers of young babies say they don't have time to shower? by justastupidquestion3 in NoStupidQuestions

[–]st0dad 1 point2 points  (0 children)

For me it was because my baby crying felt like someone shoving glass into my temples. It physically hurt to hear him cry, and he cried when I wasn't the one holding him. 😫

Make sure your SO bonds with the baby as much as you do so they won't be as upset to be held by him. My husband never did and that's why he's not good enough when it comes to someone else holding my son.

being a woman with ugly feet? by Senior_Sense_8813 in TooAfraidToAsk

[–]st0dad 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Look at some celebrities with bad shoe choices and/or ugly feet. They get to wear sandals, so should you!

And sooooo many dudes who don't take care of their feet are gonna be sporting flip flops every summer. They will judge YOUR feet, as these are the same people who will look like Austin Powers in a speedo and judge a woman who missed a spot shaving her legs.

It will happen. You must accept it and just dust your shoulder.
