    Everyone thinks I’m crazy. Am I?

    @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...

    OAD because H and I are not a good parental partnership

    @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...

    I need a safe place to vent regarding the decision to be OAD and my Dr not supporting me fully

    @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...

    No free time, no social life. No more. Wife disagrees

    @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...

    Baby rash/eczema

    @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...

    Next level rudeness

    @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.

    SAHM Funk

    @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...

    Could someone decide for me 🙃

    @clare5890 Based on #1 alone, I wouldn’t do it. But my position is that I’m about 99% OAD and feel really content with my son. After having him, I’ve just gone through this huge growth experience regarding prioritizing myself and my health and happiness. I feel like I’m sort of choosing me over...
