Venting

Hi girlies, I got induced with my son November last year. My friends gc was supportive of me when I told them and were wishing me goodluck. Once I had the baby nobody was answering me and they removed me from the gc. One of the girls I was closest with had a problem with me that I didn’t know anything about waited til then to do anything and had everybody follow behind her. Mind y’all when I was pregnant i had preeclampsia and became anemic so I felt sucky all the time and didn’t hang out much. Anyways I was wondering if anybody else had similar stories of their friends acting weird during pregnancy or after the baby.

I had one friend (long distance) but she has kids of herself so it was all understandable. Our friendship went sideways due to some differences until now, I don’t really have that much friends. My first child, I got induced also due to high blood pressure + preeclampsia .

I think it’s heart breaking how many friends you lose when pregnant let alone when you have your little one :( I lost every single friend! Similar to you I also had anemia after a liver disorder during pregnancy and then blood loss. I was living in third person, I had no energy and felt heartbroken to lose friends. Now I’m 3 years post partum and so glad to not have those people in my life. True friends don’t treat you like that, it’s hard now but in the long run it’s a blessing

I lost a friend I’ve known since middle school about 6 months into my pregnancy. It was the most odd thing ever, she was the first person I told. She seemed so excited over the phone, I literally called her right after I took my test. I’m not even sure what exactly happened, but I guess it’s for the best and I’d rather not have those type of people around my son.

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

Vanilla extract

Has anyone used alcohol free vanilla in their babies formal to help them drink?
I’m 100% sure my baby refuses her bottles as she doesn’t like the taste of it!

Just anxious to try it, don’t want her to get used to it and then refuse bottles again after two weeks of using (correct me if I’m wrong but I’ve read you use it for 2 weeks max)

TIA 🙂

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.

Car seat crying

My 6 month old PANICS the second I put him in a car seat and screams, cries, chokes and recently even projectile vomited on a 14 minute drive. It’s gotten to the point I don’t even bring him out unless it’s to a doctors appointment. I’m a stay at home mom with no family in my state and it has been very isolating. We’ve tried 3 different car seats with no improvement. Has anyone had a baby who hated the car seat? Any advice? This started at 3 months. I will add it does seem worse when he’s tired. He does cry on every trip though. He only contact naps and co sleeps so he reaches for me and will not sleep in the car seat.

Sex post C section

Hi ladies I’m 4 weeks 5 days postpartum and I had a C section. I’m not bleeding properly anymore just some brownish discharge stuff that starts on and off. I’d like to do the deed with my partner; is it okay to do so or shall I wait the full 6 weeks. I feel up for it but also worried because the advice is 6-8 weeks.
