Grumpy 3 year old

Is anyone elses 3 year old just a bit challengimg at the moment.
Shes so aggy about 40% of the time, she kicks off at being told no, shouts and screams if she dosnt get her way, constantly says shes sad, if we try play with her she tells us to leave her alone. Shell out right scream at us if we do or say anything she dosnt like. Just feels bit sad. Wakes up before 6 but is clearly overtired and grumpy. Try to do nice stuff with her it just feels like a constant battle.

Am I being dramatic

Just had a miscarriage 6 weeks ago, we lost the baby at 27 weeks,

my friend is staying who I haven’t seen since before I fell pregnant, she’s just had a baby and brought him to stay, but I feel I’m always crying about her baby, and getting emotional, we haven’t dine one nice thing as I’m bed rotting most of the day!

So tell me do I need to get a grip or do I have the right to feel upset x

How to ditch the bottle?

So i’m embarrassed but my son (almost 2) still needs to be rocked to sleep with a bottle at nap time and before bed. I should have gotten rid of the bottle when he turned one but he just loves it so much and now i fear i’ve created a monster 😭 at this point he just uses it for comfort and i know he doesn’t need it anymore, so what’s the best way of going about it? i’m considering cutting an ounce off the bottle each day until there’s nothing left, but i’m also considering just cutting him off cold turkey. i would love to hear any advice at all or what worked for yall! he also has a problem with not wanting to eat lunch or dinner, and i think it’s because he knows he’s gonna get a bottle and he’d rather have that. i’m hoping taking the bottle away will finally get him to start eating enough. thanks again in advance!!

Binders for pregnancy?

I’m 19 weeks and my boobs before pregnancy were 30dd and now they’ve gotten even more massive and heavy. I’m non-binary and sometimes my boobs give me gender dysphoria. Usually I use binders from Spectrum Outfitters but I can’t fit into them anymore. I’m wondering if there’s any binders that are good for in pregnancy. My boobs feel like ROCKS!! I don’t even think I could achieve a flat chest with a binder but anything that can make them flatter would be nice.
I know this is a really niche question 🥲 Any help is appreciated.

Cry it out method research

Can someone send me reliable academic and peer reviewed links to research which shows that the cry it out method damages children’s mental health please.
While we haven’t and don’t plan to do CIO, I see so many comments from people stating things like it damages mental and quite frankly really horrible comments to parents asking questions about it without including the scientific evidence. It’s not fair to judge other parents choices.

Bpd

How do moms with bpd deal with it. I don’t struggle with my daughter at all but more with other people around me like the guy I’m talking to and family. I try to go without medicine but I feel like I just screw everything up. She doesn’t aggravate me or anything I just struggle with the other people. Should I go back on my medicine or is it normal to be so annoyed with people around me .

Do you cry

I know this sound like a wierd question but I'm trying to understand myself.

I barely cry over myself or my own problems. I would say probs about once a year or so when I'm feeling super overwhelmed or if I'm feeling lonely.

Don't get me wrong, show me a social media post of injustice or someones healing story and I will cry.

But like for meee.. If I'm feeling stressed, upset etc. You will never catch me crying over a man either. I've always had that oh wells what will be will be.

I'm also a very blunt and direct person. I find myself often in the position of listening to everyone's problems and giving them advice.

I just wonder if there is anyone out there similar to me....
