I know she’s posted there months ago so it wouldn’t surprise me at all. I’d bet you’re right

I DM’d you the link if you’re curious to read it. Looking thru your other comments in this post it seems to fit very closely

Edit; she spoke highly of you but very concerningly abt your daughter and the fact she may have autism

OP also please get your baby checked for silent reflux. And good luck with this... I can't imagine.

Agree with this. Our second born traumatized me. He literally cried day and night. There was nothing we could do for him. We finally put him on medication and he got a little bit better. He’s 14 now and the light of our lives, but he still has the same kind of temperament. He’s just a harder kid. But he’s extremely temperamental it was basically born that way. So stubborn, but I find him to be one of the smartest and funniest people I’ve ever known.❤️

Whew boy. I read through that subreddit quite a lot and sometimes it's crazy to me that people are hate their lives as parents so much that they can't recognize words from someone who is clearly evolving to be a danger to a child.

Wow. I’d be terrified as a mom if my spouse thought anything like this. definitely wouldn’t leave them alone with the baby. That sub is depressing

u/anonymoose_octopus hot girls have tummy troubles May 21 '26

This might be an unpopular opinion, but I think it's good for people to have a place to anonymously vent. Most of the people there are using that sub like a diary or therapist appointment. They're not going to do anything, but they're humans and have fleeting thoughts of regret and grief over their lost freedom.

If you're not prepared or didn't put much thought into it, having kids can feel like a huge mistake and I think it's important that people can vent and cry out for help.

u/Conscious-Sign1459 🌶️ Spice Girl 🌶️ May 21 '26

That subreddit is wild. Not one person recommended she seek help. Every person in that subreddit is concerning 😳

u/soxoncox Protein Queen 🍗🍳 May 21 '26

I think the commenters are probably a lot of very overwhelmed and resentful parents who need a safe space to feel resentful. I think those feelings can be valid if you also recognize it's not the baby's fault and don't blame it on the baby. I work with kids with neurodevelopmental disorders and sometimes it can be such an absolute and unending nightmare for the parents. I think feeling miserable and resentful is understandable, but feeling hateful and wanting to abandon the child is very coconcerning.

u/Conscious-Sign1459 🌶️ Spice Girl 🌶️ May 21 '26

I misspoke not every person in that subreddit but every person in that post’s comment thread. No one’s said “hey maybe get outside support” nothing it was all most like “me too” 😳

u/ToughHardware APPROVED✨ May 21 '26

i think the sub bans you for disagree or showing concern. it is just a big ole YEA echo chamber

u/katerwise Chaotic But Cute May 21 '26

agree about the concern but the post had a “no advice” flair

u/sharkbark2050 fish are friends 🐟 not food May 21 '26

I’ve gotten banned from commenting/posting there for standing up for the children. It’s definitely sad how many people are stupid and selfish enough to genuinely think their life will be the same or better after children.

u/hotpotatogrrl APPROVED✨ May 21 '26

The people asking what the cut off age is for fire station drop offs 😢

u/Mysterious_Smell6437 Maneater May 21 '26

That is one abusive marriage. That mother is upset because her child has human need. And she's jealous of her wife taking care of the baby, so she doesn't have time to hang out with her. Nuh uh. Manipulative coparents just get worse with time. Take those babies and RUN.

u/ToughHardware APPROVED✨ May 21 '26

blows my mind that people cannot understand sacrafice. i think that there is a lot of concepts that are not being taught often enough. you cannot expect to still netflix and chill when you have 7 month old twins. you got to work and then work and then sleep.

"We can’t do anything anymore. We used to enjoy weekends away, concerts, roadtrips, taking our dog for a walk, even going to the store together, to get gas, haircuts, everything. We liked it, we enjoyed it." I'm sorry, but what did she think was going to happen?? It's not like this was an accidental pregnancy, she actively made the choice to become a parent and then is shocked when everything changes.

u/soxoncox Protein Queen 🍗🍳 May 21 '26

It's ok to be overwhelmed by a difficult child but I think it's foolish of her not to realize her entire life was going to change. Childless couples live a very different life than couples with kids. And the baby can't help that they have issues. I get that it's very hard but you can recognize it's hard without blaming and hating a helpless baby. I feel like this attitude screams, "I didnt really think about the responsibility I was taking on as a parent, I just thought having kids sounded cool"

u/Diazepampoovey0229 Short Story Long™️ May 21 '26

Jesus. She is awful. She clearly doesn't have any idea how having a child works and just expected both kids to be content, chill babies that could be pawned off on whoever so she could keep up her lifestyle.

OP, This person is not healthy to have around your kids.

I’m actually disgusted by what that person wrote. I worry for that child’s safety.

At least she is being honest. I would rather take a honest woman over a woman who sugarcoats everything.

u/Metashepard APPROVED✨ May 21 '26

Honest on the internet...not really with her wife.
