You know what else I think is fake?

So I could be completely wrong, but memory is not really an accurate record of events, and memories made during a stressful time, like joining a new family, can be especially limited. Any bets on whether Allen gave Soon-Yi an alternate narrative of her early time with the family while he was grooming her? “You never…
These comments are exhausting. I am an ER doctor working front lines seeing covid patients (while pregnant) wearing the same N95 mask for 5 straight days in a row. I also have friends and colleagues who had to put IVF cycles on hold because of Covid. You can recognize the frustration and heartache of that without…
I initially read your post as “25 year old son” and it gave me a giggle, sorry and thank you.
Yup you’re exactly right. Mine is just over 2.5 and she’s still in her crib and sleep sack to keep her crazy ass in bed till I can get to her!
Fuck yeah. I let mine stay in there until he was actually able to verbalize his desire for a “big boy bed”. Frankly if you still need to wipe their butt, they qualify for a crib.
I’m the mom of two young boys and I actively dislike the whole #boymom culture. My boys are not defined by their gender and I am not defined by their gender either. Yes, there are a lot of fart jokes and muddy feet, but there is also long hair and painted fingernails. Trucks riding in doll strollers. Plush dinosaurs…
It rubbed me the wrong way when she said ‘Flamenco doesn’t belong to anyone.’ It does, that history always exists, and just because the genre has evolved doesn’t erase it.
For as much as I like Rosalía and her vocal ability, she is a wealthy non gypsy woman from Catalunya is becoming famous for Flamenco while gypsies still suffer from discrimination...
I loathe this show with the fire of a thousand suns. My husband is a CalTech astrophysicist, and while he can be a bit socially awkward at times, he’s also kind, thoughtful, witty, a fantastic partner and a devoted dad. He overtly advocates for greater inclusivity and diversity in the sciences, and participates in tons…
Low self-esteem. The reason she wants him is low self-esteem.
My work has gone to paid parental leave (2 mo), and short term disability for 2 months, and the two months paid includes all birth and adoptive parents. You’re starting to see men take advantage of it, and that’s great, but the consequences for them are so minimal. If anything they are lauded for taking time with…
It’s like society wants you to have children and then it punishes you for having children and at the same time hates you if you don’t want to have children.
Being John Malkovich ...that’s the most enjoyable thing she was in where her sex appeal was an afterthought.
Sorry! I think I have repressed so much of that first year because I was a mess of anxiety. Good luck, gal!
I think she means exclusive as in no formula or cows milk. At least I think so....
My Medela spoke to me while I pumped. Sometimes it was inspirational “keep going, keep going, keep going, keep going” and sometimes not so inspirational “I’m done, I’m done, I’m done, I’m done”
Is that weird? Anyone else?
Seeing that bag of pumped breast milk spill, I thought, “This is a horror movie. NOOOOOOOOO!”
For me, the little nugget of judgment I feel towards all of them for anything child-related is rooted in my own bitter jealousy. It’s the bitter jealousy of “you didn’t have to change your life AT ALL.”
As a transwoman who wants to adopt, this makes me so incredibly happy. I’ve always wanted to be a mom (yes, despite the stupid medical condition I was born with) and being able to connect with an infant in this way is so meaningful to me. <3
