Has anyone else’s bab walked before being able to stand?

If so how long did it take your little one to learn to stand? And/or get into the standing position without support? Milo seems to be getting really frustrated that he has to crawl to something to stand up because he’s walking literally everywhere now. It seems that he’s trying to stand up from a bear stance but he just can’t figure out how 🥴

Yes, my eldest was like that. She would crawl to something to stand up, walk, and then fall when she stopped walking 😅 took her a couple of weeks after walking to stand by herself and stand up without holding on to something 😊

Yeah my boy learnt to walk before being able to freely stand up. He’s only just started doing it the last couple of weeks & he has been walking around 6 weeks now xx

Both my girls could walk before they could stand, to me that feels normal 😄

Milos just completely shocked me in standing to throw some things (and I got it on video! 🤣) so I think the ability to stand if there he just chooses not to like he has with many things 🤦🏼‍♀️ after he did this I’ve just sat with him sitting on my knee so slightly of the floor trying to get him to stand on his own and he was doing it with ease so I’m hoping it won’t be to much longer but he’s only been walking for 2 days and he’s already getting annoyed🤣

hoping it’s not to much longer I think a few weeks will put him if walking 🤦🏼‍♀️ he honestly gets angry when he has to crawl to something to stand up and he’s only been walking 2 days

I’ve honestly never heard of it before! I’m one of 5 and my mum calls Milo backwards because he never does things in the ‘right order’ 🤣🤣

Wdy think of this for a toddler to learn word construction?

I'm open to anything else to start teaching him to read and write. He's 3!

Do men really enjoy fellatio?

Been together more than 10 years, but it's been a while since he even seemed remotely interested in me getting on my knees, or vice versa so to speak. I think it was once last year. Must be something I am doing wrong 🤔. Generally everything else in that department is great and we have two young kids with no extra support, so it's quite surprising we can't keep our hands off each other but may need to try new things. It's basically 2 positions each time with some foreplay.

I think Motherhood has made me more bitter than I realized…

This is such a ramble but I don’t know where else to put it all.

I’m four months in and I don’t really have hobbies right now. I don’t do anything for myself except maybe doomscrolling or listening to a podcast while I breastfeed my baby. I used to craft and have game nights with friends. Activities that usually are at least 2 hour stretches. Now if I have an hour free my mind immediately goes to baby, or doing something in the house for baby.

And I thought I didn’t mind. Like I knew postpartum could be very mentally consuming. But I think it’s altering how I view people around me and it’s prodding at my relationship with my husband.

He spends most of his time making food for us, looking after our dogs, playing with the baby, ect. But he still has time for his hobby. Spends maybe an hour a night on it. Even adapted to using a bot for shopping for his hobby after a certain incident where we had to have a heart to heart after he left me home alone with the baby for hours during a busy workday (I work from home) to shop for his hobby.

And yet there’s like this little green eyed monster in me that rages every time I know he’s running off to start up the bot. Even though I’m the reason he does it this way.

We took a family trip last weekend to see his best friend and their kids and let them meet the baby. He brought the laptop. He’s always brought a laptop on trips and it’s never been a problem to me before. But one night we both woke up while the baby was still asleep, and he wandered out of the room. I tried to fall back asleep but couldn’t. So I went to the kitchen to try having something warm to drink to settle me. And he was there at the table running the bot from his laptop. I flipped out at him. But there really wasn’t reason to. It’s not like I needed help with the baby and he was ignoring me. He wasn’t avoiding our friends. He was just awake and unable to sleep and found something to do with his time. Yet my snap reaction was “why the hell would you do this on a family trip?”

I don’t know what it is. Maybe it’s the less complete sleep from baby’s middle of the night feed? My brain being just consumed by baby? Maybe I’m not as over that shopping incident as I thought? But I’m just so annoyed at his hobby right now. The green eyed monster thinks “you could be using that time differently” but realistically to do what exactly??? Stare at our baby in the dark???

I spent probably an hour apologizing to him after I snapped. And he’s of course hurt and frustrated because I said some very mean things in the moment.

I don’t want to be this jealous, angry person. But I also don’t know how to find time for myself in this right now outside of basic hygiene. It’s like I’ve forgotten how to be myself, even if just for an hour.

Maybe I need a therapist.
