Adoption issues
Itās no secret that I have a bad relationship with my 3 year old step son. Iāve posted about it on here, I talk to my mom and sister about it often. I google like a crazy person seeking answers on his behavioral issues, defiance, and what I can do to help him. I pray for patience. But itās at the point where I donāt know why Iām doing it anymore. My husband adopted him last summer, and fostered him for a while before that. I have no doubt that he loves him, but itās becoming clear to me that adoption probably wasnāt a good idea. I donāt want this to be too long so I wonāt get into every detail, just what the big issues are. Heās aggressive. Heās punched me in the face, and in the stomach, and last week kicked me in the stomach (Iām 38 weeks pregnant). Yesterday at daycare he punched multiple teachers in the face, slapped kids, jumped on kids. And has in the past few months, chocked kids, slammed them into walls, drew blood etc. Heās punched my 2 year old daughter in the face, pushes her, breaks her toys, and is constantly mean to her. He sends my anxiety through the room every time he comes home. Aside from all that. My husband canāt stand him. He has moments where I can see he loves him and wants to be a dad. But sometimes he tells me he regrets adopting him. Yesterday he yelled at him and said āDo you want me to give you to another fucking family? I donāt know if I can do this.ā This isnāt the first time heās said something like this to my step son. Itās mean and itās harsh and I do feel bad. But I also understand. Every single day I wish there was somebody out there to reclaim him. My husband said to me out of the blue a weeks or so ago āI feel like youād be happier if we didnāt have himā I said āI try not to think about thatā and he said āI think about it a lotā. I feel like heās waiting for me to agree, to say that I canāt do it either, that I canāt stand him. But I just canāt, I canāt give my husband a reason to blame it on me when itās obvious that itās a decision he needs to make. He got drunk last month and vented to me about it, and he said ābut what am I supposed to do, sign away my rights?ā I have no idea what to do anymore. I need to think about the safety of my family, our happiness. I also need to think about this child. Is this the right environment for him? It doesnāt feel like it. Not just for our sakes but his. Please someone help me. Iām 20 years old, Iāve only ever raised one child and itās my own for 2 years. Iām new to this and am lost and scared and worried for my family.
False positive?
Girls Iām confused bit of background basically I have pcos and I had a baby girl in August last year my periods returned for November and December I put on a lot of weight 4 stone, so started mounjaro less than 6 months ago but still no period after a 2 and half stone loss, before pregnancy Iād lost a lot of weight and had regular periods for a year, anyway I like to test before injecting as a precaution period or not and Iāve had a positive digital, is this a false positive or too early to pick up on the normal test?
