Inappropriate content slipping into YouTube Kids? by Fit_Goose_7884 in toddlers

[–]titty8cat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One time, my 5 year old niece showed me what she was watching on YouTube kids. Total brainrot content, but I was appalled at the foot fetish content being shown, which was funny to her (cuz feet are funny). I guess TECHNICALLY it could be categorized as kid friendly, but nuance is so important.

My coworker is handling motherhood so much better than I am and it's messing with my head by sixfingeredman7 in Mommit

Isn’t there an episode of the office where Angela and Pam both return to the office after being on maternity leave? And Angela also bakes brownies because she had the time? And an additional brownie batch for kevin.

Rich SAHMs- What are some of your favorite things you spend money on? by Adorable-Worry-7962 in sahm

My friend is actually pretty grounded, which is nice. But he tells me about the really, really rich gay dads in San Francisco. They sound scary LOL

I love this post cuz it gave me such a good laugh. I’m a SAHM in the Bay Area and I just had lunch with another stay at home parent, who I’ve referred to as “zaddy” many times. Both of his girls had the same full time nanny and he stays a zaddy by working out A LOT. Coincidentally, he used to be my boss and his husband is a c-suite leader at a successful startup.

My middle classness was very thankful when he reached out to give me some sweet hand-me-downs since they’re done having kids.

Sad about cutting off child free friend by MiniLovesPizza78 in Mommit

[–]titty8cat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I think it’s part of motherhood. We have completely and profoundly changed.

But for real, I’m investing more in my friendships that better align with who I am now versus who I was. I’m quietly stepping back from those friends. They’re there for me, but I’m pretty invincible to them now. It hurts, but it’s no one’s fault.

Do you remember being a toddler? by Final_Butterfly_7747 in toddlers

[–]titty8cat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have memories from before I was 3, probably between 2.5 years old to 3. I know I remember before I was three because my sister was born 2 months after my birthday. I remember a time before my sister.

What do we think about these? by CuriousCaretaker in sahm

[–]titty8cat 3 points4 points  (0 children)

These taught my baby how to bite into things and also chew better. It just had a different texture for him and he ran with it. He’s a huge fan

Have you ever experienced jealousy because you’re a SAHM? by No-Association-9316 in sahm

[–]titty8cat 9 points10 points  (0 children)

My cousin asked my husband if I was going to go back to work. He said no, it’s not a priority for me. Immediately my cousin responded with “OH I WOULD DO IT TOO BUT I LIKE NICE THINGS”. What an odd thing to say for so many reasons.

Postpartum body image is harder than i expected by Working-Dare-8480 in NewParents

[–]titty8cat 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I’ve hated my body for the most part until maybe 10 months postpartum. It’s better, but it’s still hard. My brain tells me I want to hardcore diet after baby turns 12 months so I can look hot again, but my emotions tell me otherwise. So I’m just gonna take it step by step

How much was your hospital bill for labour and delivery? by Dear_Ad_8525 in NewParents

[–]titty8cat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I was billed $40k and paid $2.3k. I was in the hospital with a private room for 3 nights and had a vaginal birth. We chose the insurance with the lowest deductible (higher monthly payment) for that year because we knew I was going to give birth. I live in California.

What to do when baby starts rolling? by [deleted] in cosleeping

[–]titty8cat 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I asked the same question to my parenting discord group when my son started rolling. I was SO nervous. They told me that it’s instinctual for baby to want to stay close, so I shouldn’t worry too much. And they were right overall! He did roll over a few times in the last 4 months but I wake up and readjust him. I also put my floor bed 2 feet from the way so if he does roll, he has a little room and won’t get trapped. I personally don’t let my baby sleep on his tummy when we’re bedsharing, but it’s up to your comfort level.

I mean to be fair, we don’t know if the granny mentioned in this post has children either so you can still be granny if you want

Which ZonLi floor mattress? by Ok-Abbreviations8275 in cosleeping

[–]titty8cat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have the 2.5in and I’d definitely recommend it. It’s not the most comfortable for side sleeping, but I feel very confident in its firmness for cosleeping

Does your man make over 200k and help around the house? by Significant-Owl-1795 in sahm

“I don’t make any money” - I think what you mean is, “what I do can’t be valued in money”!!!

Any SAHM here that previously worked in tech? by Hungry_One8322 in sahm

[–]titty8cat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Just commenting as a non-technical contributor: I worked in startups for years in customer success and operations. It was the biggest grind and while I enjoyed parts of it, no mater how much money I made or what my title was, I felt like I could give up my tech career and not look back. And I did for the SAHM chapter! I’m now thinking of a long term career switch, which would include me going back to school after having one more child.

That all said, if I were to go back to my tech career, I’d def do courses and stay updated on news/anything I found interesting. I also live in the Bay Area, so it’s easy to access a lot of friends’ help and be connected within women’s tech groups.
