Starting a thread of stuff my husband says - Matthewisms:

"Nut up or shut up"

[rlw @anonandblonde]

My baby is asleep in his crib for the first time in almost two months and I am stoked 😅

Starbucks is fucking down and has closed locations. They have closed 430 North America locations and laid off staff. Yall act like people haven’t reduced the amount of Starbucks they are consuming.

Fast food is down, sit down restaurant business is down. The numbers are published. People can’t afford it because the economy is way worse than you want to really care to admit. The government has been floating it for years preventing a crash and pumping money into the economy making inflation worse.

Coffee prices in the grocery stores jumped 18% this year alone. Maxwell house hovers around $20 now. Even yelling make it at home, the prices have jumped.

People of all ages are having to weigh bills vs food and it shouldn’t have to be this way. We are watching the govt waste TF out of money. Both parties do it. We are sick of it.

@mamagenevieve Unfortunately even 5 months pp I will still leak at night and sometimes during the day so I have to wear one (but sometimes I don't cause I need a break and will just leak) 🙃

When the husband brings bronchitis and pneumonia germs home from AT - I immediately pull out the GOLD GOLD from the freezer that I've been saving. (He doesn't have it but it went AROUND and he feels a little cruddy)

[rlw @anonandblonde]

@mamagenevieve I am so happy you've been able to find a way to make life a little bit better for yall 🤍

[rlw @anonandblonde]

@mamagenevieve As someone who lives in WNC, it is nice here (I do love the nature) BUT it is overpriced (land is EXPENSIVE) and overpopulated. It's also definitely loud (chainsaws/mowers start up at daylight) and everything is an hour from everything and homeschooling laws are complicated so

[rlw @anonandblonde]

Yes he's 4 months old, no we're not starting solids yet. Why? Because he's showing not one single sign of readiness (plus even the pediatrician said 5 months at the absolute very earliest since he was premature)

[rlw @anonandblonde]

As if everything wasn't rough enough, I just got my period back 🙃🙃🙃

[rlw @anonandblonde]

I love that literally 2 days after S had a noticeable schedule (I let him set his own lol) he changed things up and leaves me guessing again 😂

[rlw @anonandblonde]

Yea this first night solo is rough 🙃

[rlw @anonandblonde]

I'm so emotional rn. M spent an entire month home 24/7 when S was born and hasn't been gone a single night in the 14 weeks after that but now he's gone 4 days/nights and I just don't feel prepared to do everything alone 🙃

[rlw @anonandblonde]

Filling up my husband's truck makes me wanna cry diesel is so expensive jfc

[rlw @anonandblonde]

I sent M a picture and I love that he was just as excited cause he knew how upset I was that he wouldn't latch anymore

[rlw @anonandblonde]

So I EP but will latch S occasionally just to make sure he will just in case I ever need to but a few weeks ago he just started refusing and would full on scream if I tried but this morning he ate a full meal directly and I could cry I'm so happy lol

[rlw @anonandblonde]

@InfertilityWars I swore up and down I wouldn't but we do every night. He's next to never slept in his crib. He sleeps on my chest and I swear an instinct kicks in. I was scared at first but I just followed my intuition

[𐌁𐌉Ᏽ 𐌕𐌉𐌌𐌉 @OrevaZSN]

It’s hard to admit, but I’m really burned out. I feel drained, exhausted, unmotivated, and tired in ways that sleep can’t fix. I’m trying, but everything just feels heavier than it should.

[Strawberry Wife🍓 @OKAYYYWOWWW]

Being mad at someone for posting about how much they love their spouse is so weird!! I think more people should talk about their significant other positively! Being in love is so cool and fun!!!

[rlw @anonandblonde]

@mamagenevieve Same. Same. If we want another baby we have to start completely over at the very beginning and I just don't know - that's a lot ya know with no guarantee since last time we only got 2 eggs to even begin with

[rlw @anonandblonde]

Well made strawberry milk tonight 😂

[King Dom @enyonvm]

Before I got pregnant, I had an irrational fear of pregnancy as something that could ruin my life and damage me irreparably.

Now that I've gone through pregnancy and childbirth and have thee most adorable baby...

I'm even more scared of pregnancy cos WTF WAS THAT?!?!
