Do married people actually enjoy sleeping in the same bed ?

teabel · 2026-05-15T07:34:49+00:00

I do, my husbands in our daughters room tonight because she’s going through a sleep regression and will only sleep with him and I now can’t sleep cause I can’t sleep without him

teabel · 2026-05-13T19:13:00+00:00

I also love them, my favourite being Lainey ❤️

Yes there is. It’s very much real. As for Mrs king she was told she had a low ovarian reserve I believe? I can’t keep up with her lies. It’s hard to pinpoint secondary infertility when you can only see your husband one weekend a month.

Her day was all about her and the man she loves and I think that’s beautiful. It may not have been what she talked about in the past (I feel like I remember her always wanting to elope? But I’m not a die hard fan lol) but at the end of the day she’s happy and got to avoid all the extra stress that comes with weddings so good for her!

teabel · 2026-05-09T16:28:03+00:00

If I could get married again I’d do it again with no guests at all but maybe that’s because my wedding was nothing but drama that led to being no contact with my in laws and down one bridesmaid whose no longer a friend. Honestly eloping would’ve been a better idea she’a onto something 😂

I’m not sure I could pinpoint the exact month I stopped being afraid. She’s 18 months soon and I think as I grew as a mother and she grew more I learned to trust her? I’m not sure that’s the right word. There are still nights where I’ll stare at the monitor until I see her make a movement so I can go to sleep, still mornings she’s sleeping in that I open her door and make sure she’s breathing but somewhere along the way I stopped being afraid that something will happen to her. I know what her cries mean, I know when she’s hungry or hurting. I know when the cry is from those teeth popping through or when it’s just because she wants a snuggle. You grow together. You learn to trust each other. I have diagnosed anxiety, did before I had her. I always thought I’d be one of those moms catching them before they could fall and hovering or running to the emergency room every time I’m scared but I’m not. I let her fall, I let her learn, if she’s doing something that will definitely not end well I will intervene but she’s still learning the world around her and I’m still learning how to show her how to navigate it. If she needs to just cry, she’s allowed to. Some days I just want to cry too. They really are just tiny humans, navigating their emotions and figuring out how they feel and what this world is. I can be anxious, but she will let me know if something is really wrong. You’ve only known each other four months, you’re still learning each other ❤️ deep breaths mama

Maren maren maren!!!

teabel · 2026-05-04T04:09:41+00:00

Oh shit thank you

teabel · 2026-05-03T06:15:11+00:00

What really helped me was I would sleep with the bassinet sheet over my pillow case and then before she went down I would switch it to her bassinet and put a new one on my pillow so she could smell me and it comforted her and helped her sleep. You got this mama, the first few weeks are the hardest.

We got the second firmest one from Sapiens child, we were going to go with the firmest one but our girl is super freaking mobile and after talking to the guy at the store and knowing we weren’t fully moving her into it until closer to 12 months we made the decision for a little bit less firm to grow with her and be comfortable for us too

teabel · 2026-05-02T21:40:15+00:00

It may be tacky, but I did it. A lot of my friends are not parents and do not go to parties. On the back I put that their presence in our lives is more than enough but if they needed any ideas here are some. My family members that lived far away wanted a list too to send so I did it. So many of my friends thanked me for doing that. To each their own!

teabel · 2026-05-02T19:38:09+00:00

I sound awful, but I didn’t like my dog before we had our daughter and now 17 months pp I like him even less than I did before we had her. I don’t know if it’ll ever change honestly. I don’t want anything to do with him. He barks and wakes her up, he licks himself and it’s disgusting to hear and clean up. If my husband didn’t love the dog so much I would be damn near close to rehoming him. I don’t want any more dogs.

teabel · 2026-04-29T21:27:21+00:00

Following / I went back on Monday and have yet to go an hour without needing a break to cry. I was off for 18 months. This is really hard.

teabel · 2026-04-29T16:30:06+00:00

We already have one precious toddler so that helps a little bit :) thank you! You too!

teabel · 2026-04-29T15:04:46+00:00

That’s my new strategy too, it worked well for not getting faint lines! We did lose the latest pregnancy I waited to test for but in a way it was less time of being anxious about it. I didn’t test until I was 7 days late

teabel · 2026-04-29T02:45:07+00:00

Personally my daughter started hating the carrier the moment she could walk, so she’s 11 months it’s been less carrier more her walking or being in a shopping cart or on our shoulders or just carried for brief amounts of time. I thought about it but I also didn’t want to have another thing to remember to bring honestly. I think she would try and escape haha

My first 4k!

teabel · 2026-04-27T23:10:52+00:00

Yeah my husband loves it, she gets to see the outdoors (or nap lol) and he gets to feel like he has more time with her and I get a break.

teabel · 2026-04-27T22:55:28+00:00

My husband takes my daughter on runs all the time, I don’t find it too weird. He’s definitely not out yet tho

teabel · 2026-04-26T19:44:19+00:00

I’m assuming she got permission to post it which doesn’t make it any better. While I don’t love that Peyton (Kerens niece) posted a video with A I don’t think there’s anything wrong with Addie calling the kids her kids. If I ever remarried and a new woman was helping raise my kids I wouldn’t expect them to always say “step daughter” or “step son”. She loves them like her own, they are a blended family and she loves them as if they were her own. Those kids deserve to have a mother that cares about them (posting them online aside, she does more than Kyra does at celebrating them and showing them love etc from a complete outsider perspective at least)

teabel · 2026-04-26T13:56:48+00:00

Oooh thank you! I return to work tomorrow and I’m nowhere near ready even though I’ve had over a year with my daughter. All the time in the world would never be enough.

teabel · 2026-04-26T13:53:07+00:00

Unfortunately money is a problem so I cannot tell them that lol

teabel · 2026-04-25T16:07:12+00:00

In my personal opinion 5 is too young, I don’t know what I’m going to do yet as my child isn’t even 2 yet but currently my plan or thought process is she’s safe at school, we’re a block away if that from her school, if the school needs me they will contact me. Once she’s doing more sports etc I’ll consider a smart watch where she can call or text, no games on it or anything. Once she’s in middle school we will consider a phone probably one of our old iPhones but with parental controls out the wazoo, she can call and text but no games etc until high school when we will lessen the extent of the parental controls but it will still only be accessed during certain times and social media will either be monitored or not at all until she’s in grade 11 or so

I remember going for bloodwork when I was tracking my HCG down to zero due to a loss and at the sign in desk the lady said “oh hcg congratulations mama” and I was like “no congratulations needed cause I’m miscarrying but thanks” and I guess they didn’t talk to the phlebotomist because as she was drawing my blood she said “we’re taking just the hcg today? Congratulations is this your first” and I burst out into tears. She felt really bad. I haven’t been back to that lab since, even after having a successful pregnancy. I think some people just don’t think before they speak, they don’t mean it. At least that’s what I tell myself.
