@kerithravine410 My grandma on my moms side had 7 and my mom had 5 and there are just countless issues of generational trauma that have been passed down. It’s incredibly sad, but I think this right here is what people are talking about when they talk about “breaking the cycle”. We have to...

@marybelshe I’m second oldest of five and I feel this deeply. I was parentified from a suuuper young age and looking back, I realize so many of my needs were not taken care of. And like you, I was also always expected to be the role model. My sister could completely deface my clothing (she cut...

@smithmartin can I ask what kind of fiber gummies you use?!

@writergirlrs Ah just saw their video announcing that! Omg one of the comments triggered me in particular. It was a woman saying she was an only child and how sad and horrible it is with her aging parents and that she would never do that to her kids, etc. Argh, it was definitely frustrating...

@daaa Aww poor little thing. Therapy could prove to be helpful for her. Maybe your pediatrician could provide a referral for you. I highly recommend play therapy or art therapy for children. They create an environment where the child stays busy creating art or playing, and it isn’t obvious that...

@perteronser Thank you for the tip, I will give it a shot :)

@hocyre89 Lol I have been there on and off the entire pregnancy (32 weeks now). Trying to find a new fiber supplement or gummy that might help. Did you find any product to be particularly helpful? I can’t take miralax even though it helped me the one time I took it. I can almost feel the texture...

@ugostrange I’m 3 weeks postpartum too, solidarity, mama!!! I’m so tired!!! Lol

@hocyre89 🙌🙏💖 we understand and we are happy for you!!!!!!!

@kennethe62 I’m sorry, I meant to mention that Hanna Andersson has some pre-loved second hand items you can buy through their site! Check it out here. I only buy their stuff that is either on sale or second hand. 😆

@kennethe62 Hanna Andersson and Baby Boden are my favorites!

@tisanewseason You’re not crazy at all. You’re just trying to parent in the way that works best for you and babygirl and others aren’t understanding that. The western cultures are obsessed with making babies sleep independently; it’s just deeply woven into the fabric of society. So that’s...

@marlien I don't think people talk enough about how hard having children is on a marriage/relationship. I had an idea of how much it would take a toll on my husband and I's relationship, but I feel blindsided with the depth of how hard things have been (also just as an individual). It also...

@mgreene05 Congratulations! Must be such a relief 🙌

@vash07 The nerve some people have to act like they know you better than you know yourself. I’m so sorry you haven’t gotten more support. I really appreciate your perspective of being a postpartum nurse. My postpartum nurses took such good care of me, I am so grateful for the work you guys do. I...

@peppermint_patty La-Z-non-binary was my favorite bit 😆👌💜

@wisdomandlove We understand you! Even just one child is a LOT of work. Your wife needs to do her own homework and learn more about sibling dynamics if she thinks having a second child means your first won’t be lonely. So many people have siblings and feel tremendous loneliness. Siblings are not...

@jack_sdb My son has had eczema since he was born, on and off. After 2.5 years of the struggle, I’ve learned that eczema is often just a part of infancy/toddlerhood and most kids grow out of it. Eliminating certain foods or changing certain products didn’t help my son’s skin at all. Neither did...

@stevenglo Jesus Christ! Why are strangers so incredibly intrusive and rude about such sensitive topics? I’m so sorry your awesome girls day had to be interrupted by such rudeness. Definitely next level. Hope it never happens to you again.

@leticia1995 Awww that last bit broke my heart for you. I can’t imagine how hard this is for you. My husband is a police officer and works long shift hours late into the night so I can relate on a small level. I have been at my wits end for many, many days trying to figure out what to do with my...
