I’m so upset right now. 😭
My parents have been on me m now for over a month about getting my tubes tied. I don’t want to be fixed, I eventually want more kids, I shouldn’t have had 2nd so close together. But they are constantly saying I don’t need anymore. Blah blah blah.
YOU’VE NEVER RAISED MY KIDS. & they never will. When they kept them so I could work, they were paid $100 a week (my moms price) plus extra if I wasn’t able to make it to the store for supplies for them. Bc my work schedule was super crazy at one point.
I don’t receive any government assistance. Expect WIC. No food stamps, no child support. I pay all my bills. But yet they feel the need to hound me about having kids ? 😓😓
My parents are the same way. I really was letting it get to me, but they aren't paying my bills, they aren't assisting in my daughter's care at all. Aside from her once a week visit to them (they asked for this) they don't do anything extra for her. They are awesome grandparents, but they have no right to tell me how or when to have my family.
Tell them it's none of their business. It's YOUR body. It would probably be hard to find a doctor who would fix you anyway considering you only have 2 kids. And if they were to catch on to you not wanting to do it 100% they'd probably say no. If you're raising your kids and being a good mom then don't worry about comments like that. I've had my fair share of rude comments from people for being young and having my kids so close in age. I just take it like a grain of salt and move on. Unfortunately there are a lot of people now a days that think having kids is bad.
If they aren’t fucking you, feeding you, or financing you then their opinion doesn’t matter. Tell them to kiss ass.
My mom tried to get me to tie my tubes after my second child and I said no. I knew that I would meet my husband one day and we would want a child together. I met him and my stepson a few months after having my son. Two years later we had a daughter and got married. You do what you want. Don’t listen to your parents about something that you don’t want done to your body.
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
Transgender children
So I just learned that in my kids school district (my kids aren't in school yet my oldest will be starting kindergarten next September) there are twin boys who identify as girls. They are 5 years old. What's your opinions on this matter given they are 5!!! I don't believe that at that age they really understand the whole thing. So the entire school had to take a course on how to handle transgender children. For example they can't say girls go this or boys do that. What are...
Science!
My friend posted this on facebook last night and said her kids were asleep within minutes. It's a song that scientists created to help people fall asleep. I was skeptical but I thought what the hay, I'll try it out. I didn't bank on Dh falling asleep, but both him and lo were asleep by minute 2. And lo slept six straight hours. ?
Starting TWW. Anyone else?
I had a stillborn daughter at 38 weeks this passed Nov. This is my second month ttc. (Last month we only tried for like two weeks though). My last and only pregnancy, I got pregnant the first month of ttc so I hope it's quick this time again.

A Statement from Mom.Life:
Hey everyone!
Last night, a new user began messaging our moms asking for private pictures of toddlers and young children. This is obviously unacceptable behavior, and the account was banned immediately. Although thankfully extremely rare on Mom.Life, several users were understandably upset by this, so we wanted to clarify a few things:
First off, Mom.Life has an absolute zero tolerance policy for child abuse and those who would prey on children. We strive to ...
Girl it’s your body, your life, your decisions. Yes they are your parents but their ability to have control stopped when you turned 18. I’m almost 23 and my mom still tries to do similar things so maybe you just need to talk to them about that and explain that it’s about what makes you happy in your life
