TW ⚠️: trauma, blood, death Queen Aemma (Game of Thrones: House of the Dragon): This happens on the first episode, no less. The baby Queen Aemma is carrying is breech, putting both her and the baby at risk of dying. King Viserys is confident that the baby will be a boy. He gives the Grand Maester his consent to perform a C-section, but Aemma did not consent to it. Viserys reassures her that the baby will be fine, and then the Grand Maesters just start. While Aemma is fully conscious and not realizing what is happening until it’s too late. Without her consent. While she is screaming. With no medical support. Both the queen and the baby (a boy) die anyway. Polly (Invincible: Atom Eve Special): Polly is Atom Eve’s biological mother who was a test subject for Dr. Elias Brandyworth. Her amniotic fluid was altered to genetically enhance her unborn child. Months later, she goes into labor despite not being due until two weeks. In addition, atomic beams shoot from her eyes and mouth. This continues on the way to the hospital, with each burst of atomic energy more painful than the other before one more apparently kills her. A crude C-section is performed and then the newborn baby is switched with another family’s (The Wilkins) stillborn daughter. It turns out Polly was brain dead, but her body was kept in a state where she could continue breeding children similar to Atom Eve. The High Priestess (Samurai Jack): The High Priestess gives birth to seven daughters all at once. No medial help. Nothing. Just screaming in a dark room while the members of the Cult of Aku worship the statue, and a gong going off as each daughter was born. This is traumatic for the daughters as they were shown no love the second they were born. It’s even more fucked up as to how they were conceived. Aku leaves some of his essence and then the High Priestess drinks it all. Probably a factor as to why she walked it off after the birth whereas in real life, it would be impossible without some sort of medical help. submitted by /u/Alternative-Koala933 to r/TopCharacterTropes [link] [comments]

I'm trying to understand the evolutionary pressures at work. Contrary to women, men are fertile throughout the year and for many more years than women. And yet, the chances of a baby being born as male or female are 50-50. Such fertility would have made sense of the probability of having a male child was much lesser than a female child. I guess since great apes started herding together and forming rudimentary civilisations most men and women have paired up together and reproduced. As such I don't understand how and why men evolved to have such extended fertility compared to women. While we are at it, another aspect of fertility differences is how men continuously produce sperm as long as they are fertile but women are born with all the eggs their body can ever produce. Have we ever understood why this is so? Edit: I guess I did a terrible job of explaining my thoughts here. So my assumption is that humans or some common ancestors evolved to produce offsprings that have a near 50-50% chance of being male or female. So post that how or why did males evolve to be able to be fertile for most of their lifespan? Such a mutation would have made sense if for some reason male to female birth ratios were skewed thereby putting evolutionary pressure on males to be fertile for longer. Also, yes I know humans are "fertile round the year". I meant women are fertile only for a few days every few weeks. submitted by /u/Old_Leshen to r/evolution [link] [comments]

Tldr: 7m stepson has been displaying sneaky behavior towards his 6mo baby brother when mother isn’t around, recently caught purposely hurting the bay, mother not taking concerns as serious as I am, what should I do from here on? I am a new father, had my first baby boy 6 months ago. My child’s mother already had 3, so 4 total for her. I have been in the kids lives for about 4 years now, over the last 2 years consistently living in home (currently not living together due to other issues I had with her while living there). The kids are 13F, 11,F, 7M. The girls have had no issues with baby, they love & adore him. Offer to watch him when we need quick break (dinner, bathroom etc). The youngest boy also displays daily signs of affection, using baby voices wanting to give toys etc. The thing I noticed though is that whenever his mother is not around, he has behaved in a weird aggressive way around the baby. Minor example is kneeling over baby, on all fours, but directly in the baby face. I tell him to back away as he’s too close to baby may accidentally fall on him. Nothing harmful about that. Then one day I observed him “fake punching” the baby, like punching the air closely in his direction. I told him to stop playing like that. Concern level rising. Another day his mother was gone, baby was laying on bed with me he comes in to chill with us. I’m on my phone, 7m is laying on bed with his back turned towards me & baby on other side of him. The baby started crying, I asked what did you do, he says he did nothing baby just started crying. Few days later the same scenario, back turned towards block my view of the baby. This time I purposely pretended as if I was distracted with my phone, but I watched him put his index finger into the baby’s mouth. I loudly told him to STOP that shit, he said “I was giving him my finger to play with”. That same day I told his older sisters in private that if have them look after him (which we are always present when they do, just cooking or bathroom) to never let 7m boy around the baby alone, even for a quick second. I talked to his mother & she said he doesn’t think he would hurt his little brother, that he’s just a curious boy. Fast forward to yesterday, Baby is 6 months now. His mother left to pick up the oldest daughter from school. After feeding / play baby feel to sleep watching his favorite show “ms Rachel”. I went on the balcony to move some storage around while baby slept. We have a home camera system, so I put the app on my phone to monitor the baby. One minute I looked at camera the baby was sleeping peaceful, the very next minute I check & see 7m boy was laying on the bed with his back facing the camera. He was in the living room at first watching tv, which connects directly to balcony so he could see I was outside. For me the fact that he immediately went to the room once he noticed baby was alone + blocking the view to camera with his back demonstrates he knows he’s doing something malicious. I could not see what he was doing to the baby, but I did see him instantly jump up & run towards the living room. I was already running towards the room as all of this was happening, to which we met in the hallway. He instantly goes “baby is crying he woke up” & I admittedly went into outrage, the first time I’ve ever yelled at him. I asked “what did you do to the baby” he says nothing the baby just woke up crying & I told him leave immediately. Once his mother got home I told her what happened. She asks him what he did to the baby, he tells her “I accidentally hit him with my knee and he woke up”, I instantly told him to stop lying I saw him with his back turned toward the camera it wasn’t from a knee. He says it was. I ask him then why did he have his back blocking the camera view? He says he was just laying there with the baby. After a bit more questioning, she tells him that he’s not allowed to be around the baby unless we’re around & to understand he’s just a baby you can hurt him so be more careful. When he left I asked her why she wasn’t as concerned as Here’s the thing. The reason she didn’t show as much concern as me is due to the fact that she’s in denial about her parenting. I’ve communicated many times in the most sincere, non judgmental, suggestive supportive ways possible that we should consider getting the kid professional behavioral help. His dad doesn’t know the full extent because his son doesn’t behave the same way at his house. But also, she literally calls his dad every single week to “talk to your son” about some behavior problem he’s having. I’ve observed these calls closely because they’re usually on speaker. They always consist of Mom: “7m is doing ___” “ Dad: “Son, you need to stop doing __ & listen to your mother” 7m boy: “okay I will, love you dad” Even when discipline actions are taken, they’re never meaningful or last long. Couple weeks ago he was blowing water at his sisters with a straw, his mother called dad, dad said no phone (yes 7m has cell phone smh) or Xbox for weekend. His dad usually picks up on Thursday-Sunday, the kid asks his mother if he can stay another day, she obliges. They both oblige. Even though he always looks forward to the weekends to play fortnite with his dad, but since he had consequences awaiting he asked to stay and they both agreed. This is the type of collective failure I am consistently seeing from them with the kid. My question & reason for writing all of this is to ask for some advice on what steps I should take for my son? It’s hard because I’m not there 24/7, & I know for the most part when I’m not there he is always with her. But I worry that she isn’t taking the situation as serious as I am. Everyone I’ve talked to is telling me that if anything happens to baby, document all of these communications of her ignoring my concerns so that I can use to gain custody of baby. But that’s the thing, I don’t want to have anything happen to him at all, or wait for something to happen to take action. Is there something I should be doing to prepare for this situation? submitted by /u/NoBid7499 to r/Advice [link] [comments]

My highschool best friend became a mom after graduation in 2019. She has a little 5 year old boy who is very cool ngl. We didn't talk much during the pregnancy of her first born for no particular reason, but we became really close again last year. Emma recently gave birth to a little girl. She had many complications with her during pregnancy, but luckily her baby is healthy. She's super adorable and she's 3 months old now. Although I adore her baby, Emma has been sending me photos/videos non-stop since the second she was born. Emma sends 3 or 4 videos and 2 photos or so daily, all being of her baby. If we call to chat, the call turns into a 2 hour call solely about her newborn baby. We'll chat about something completely unrelated and Emma always finds a way to make it about her baby. It's driving me a little insane. Again I love her little family and all, and I know that before anything she is a mother first, but I miss my best friend. I miss chatting about our favorite shows, her interests in the most niche topics and such. All of my friends are mother's now, and I can't have children at the moment, nor do I want any in the future tbh. Maybe it's time to keep minimal contact and find folks who aren't parents? submitted by /u/Sea_Foam_4636 to r/Vent [link] [comments]

I’ll be interested to learn the full story. Witnesses have said the boy was exceptionally erratic and poorly supervised. Have y’all ever seen situations in which you’re concerned for the baby because of another child? Or the parents? I feel terrible for this little girl’s family. submitted by /u/currycurrycurry15 to r/nursing [link] [comments]

TLDR; On April 13, 1994, while walking home from school, two young boys searching for recyclables discovered the body of a newborn baby girl in a trash can at Temple Park in Franklin, Indiana. An autopsy revealed the baby's cause of death as multiple stab wounds. Her death was ruled a homicide. Officers investigating the case nicknamed the unidentified baby as "Baby Hope.” With help from the community, donations were collected to provide a proper funeral and headstone for her. Unfortunately, despite a years long investigation, the case went cold and Baby Hope has remained unidentified until today. Just hours ago, Indiana State Police announced they have finally identified Baby Hope, and her parents. Unfortunately, Hope’s mother, Cheryl Larson, passed away in 2018. Her father has been identified as Paul Richard Shepherd. Paul is cooperating with police and claims to have had no knowledge of the pregnancy. Also questioned was Richard Larson, Cheryl’s ex-husband. At the time of Hope’s death, Cheryl and Richard were married and living with one another near the park where Hope’s body was found. No further information about Richard has been released. No arrests have been made, however this is an ongoing investigation. Full Update Article from The Indianapolis Star: “After more than 31 years, police have finally identified the parents of a newborn baby girl found stabbed to death in a Johnson County trash can. The breakthrough brings "a degree of closure for our community," Franklin Police Department Chief Kirby Cochran said on July 14, but questions remain. At about 5 p.m. on April 13, 1994, two boys were rifling through a garbage can looking for recyclables in Franklin's Temple Park where they made a horrific discovery. Among the refuse was the body of a newborn baby girl. She had been stabbed to death. Police in the town of just shy of 15,000 people at that time were unable to identify the girl or her family members. She was dubbed Baby Hope, and the community pooled funds for a proper burial and headstone. About 150 attended her funeral. Hope never strayed far from the community's mind: to this day, fresh flowers decorate her grave. Investigators pursued hundreds of leads across the country, but the case went cold. Baby Hope's case was officially reopened in 2019 after a technique called genetic genealogy proved successful in cracking long-term unsolved cases. The process involves using public DNA databases to find close family members of an unknown person. Investigators, who had a sample of Hope's DNA, worked with the Indiana State Crime Lab and forensic company Parabon NanoLabs to find Hope's relatives. Hope's biological mother was identified as Cheryl Dawn Larson. In 1994, she lived near Temple Park with her then-husband, Richard Noel Larson. She would have been either 30 or 31 years old at the time of Hope's birth. Richard Larson was not the baby's biological father and police would not provide more information about him. Cheryl Larson died in 2018, and investigators are "unable to obtain further information to determine her level of involvement" with Hope's homicide, investigations commander Lt. Chris Tennell said. Though Cheryl Larson was unable to be interviewed, detectives spoke with her friends and neighbors from that time. That led to the identity of the baby's biological father, Paul Richard Shepherd. In a written statement, Shepherd said that he was "completely unaware" of the pregnancy. "The very thought that a child fathered by him was subjected to such evil is one he cannot escape from," Shepherd wrote. He asked for privacy as he processes the revelation. Police said Shepherd has cooperated with the investigation. Given the opportunity to name the little girl, he chose the name Hope Shepherd to honor the officers' commitment to getting justice in the case. Charges will not be filed against anyone at this time, but the case isn't closed, Cochran said. No suspect has officially been named in Hope's killing. Cochran asked members of the community to come forward with any information that they may have in light of the recent breakthrough. "The DNA process that we use today is magnificent, but in this case, it's only a partial answer because we still have open questions," Coroner Michael Pruitt said. "And DNA is not going to answer those questions for us, necessarily. It's the public." With the identification of Hope, no other unidentified person cases remain in the county.” Sources Indianapolis Star Article Fox59 Article Full Video of Press Conference submitted by /u/TheBonesOfAutumn to r/UnresolvedMysteries [link] [comments]

I am NOT OOP, OOP is u/Prestigious-Ice-7293 Originally posted to r/AITAH AITAH for grabbing my newborn baby from my SIL Thanks to u/soayherder & u/queenlegolas for suggesting this BoRU Editor’s note: edited the title for ease of readability Trigger Warnings: emotional abuse and manipulation, verbal abuse, controlling behavior, medical issues, physical assault Original Post: June 10, 2025 I (28F) had my son Kyson 4 months ago. At 22 weeks I was diagnosed with partial placenta previa and we were hoping and praying it would resolve, but at 28 weeks I was told I have complete placenta previa. This news hurt because I had a birth plan but my doctor still closely monitored it even though he made it clear that there might be less chance of resolving it and might have a C-section. At 35 weeks I had heavy bleeding so I delivered my beautiful baby boy through an emergency C-section. My son was in the NICU for 2 weeks before we got to go home. 2 weeks ago there was a family party at my MIL's house, I was sitting in the ladies when Ky started crying. So I breastfed him while chatting nobody had a problem with that them after that I handed him to my SIL since she wanted to play with him. While he was holding him she said something. So they started talking about my SIL's labour and she said it was a breeze. Then I said "aww thats nice, I hope to have a natural with my second some day". Then she said "a natural birth needs preparation during the whole pregnancy." Then she went on to say "you never worked out or got active much." So I told her it was because of the placenta previa situation. This woman literally said "that's not an excuse tho, I had Roud Ligament Pain and I still managed to keep active." I told her I was kept on bed rest half my pregnancy and had too many hospital visits so I didn't wanna do anything to risk putting myself in danger. Then she said "your body can feels the nerves and it reads accordingly, you should've relaxed and let nature take it's course. That's how natural births work, the C-section was avoidable." I told her to f herself and took my baby out her arms and went to my hubby. We left after. Apparently she told anyone who asked where I am got sensitive and left the party. After a few days she asked to see Kyson and I said I'm not comfortable being around her at the moment. She accused me of weaponizing my son and using him to hurt her. NOTE: Whole pregnancy she kept on giving unsolicited advice on how to "fix" the placenta previa and I feel like she thinks if I had listened to her I would have had Kyson naturally. I felt sad for a few weeks after birth cause my birth plan didn't go how I wanted it to, these feelings just feel like they resurfaced tbh. I thought I was ok. AITAH for Grabbing him and not agreeing to visit her. AITAH has no consensus bot, OOP was NTA Relevant Comments Commenter 1: NTA. SIL can stay in her judgmental bubble by herself. I would’ve humiliated her at the party by asking why she thought she knew more than the doctors who gave you the advice. And ask her where she got her medical degree from, because you’d like to tell people to not attend that university since clearly their candidates are both ignorant and downright stupid with a capital S. Sancti-mommies are the worst. OOP: She hates C-section births, formula, the likes. She's that type. Commenter 2: NTA, she sounds like an idiot. What part of bedrest did she not understand?? I went through a placenta abruption, almost died and almost lost my baby. The first thing my doctor said to me once I was coherent enough to hear it was "you did nothing wrong". If someone said to me what she said to you after what I went through (and in the same token, what you went through), I don't know if I could ever speak to them again. What she said was cruel, vile, and more importantly, completely false. OOP: So sorry about the placenta abruption, so glad you and baby are ok. It was so hurtful especially since she knows how I wanted to have a natural delivery. Commenter 3: NTA. Nobody’s giving out medals for having natural births and people need to stop looking down on c-section births like it’s a failing of some kind. You did what was advised based on professional opinion for the health and safety of you and your child. You are not weaponising anything, she is just playing victim and you don’t need to be around this toxic attitude. If she doesn’t apologise or you can’t come to a point where you are comfortable to be around her, just keep enjoying your baby and motherhood without this negative energy! OOP: They see a C-section as easy but it's really not. Thank you, I'm prioritizing my mental health and my son. Commenter 4: Wow. Nta!! Comparing round ligament pain something every pregnant woman feels to placenta previa that legit forces you to have no choice but to limit activity is truly insane. If she said this to your face I can only imagine what they all say behind your back!! I’d send her and your MIL info on placenta previa and why you couldn’t work out and tell SIL you no longer want to be around someone like her and how hurtful it was to demonize a condition you had no control over that could’ve cost you and your son your lives!! She’s the type who’d give your baby something he’s allergic too bc she thinks you’re exaggerating it or he needs to eat it to grow out of allergy. I would not feel safe around her!! OOP: When we first told her about the diagnoses I provided her with facts but she is just stubborn and she says science makes pregnancy more complicated than it's supposed to when it's a natural thing. She doesn't babysit him neither does my MIL. Is SIL a doctor and anti-vaxxer? OOP: No, she is an accountant + Surprisingly she vaccinates. But she hates epidural, ipad kids, eats organic food, etc..   Update #1: June 10, 2025 (same day, seven hours later) I made my post hours ago and I am so overwhelmed at the amount of support and kindness I have gotten from everyone in the comments.n So when I told my husband about what he did, I didn't like his reaction. I told him exactly what happens and he said "I don't want to interfere in women arguments babe". I then told him that he can atleast ask his sister to be sensitive about my experience and he said "Why don't you talk to my mom about it so she sits you two down and have a mature discussion?". My husband knows SIL is the apple of my MIL's eye so she would side with her. There has never been a need for my MIL to pick sides but if there ever was we all know who he would. I told him that I would feel more comfortable if he is there. But he said its a birth thing so women should discuss it. I mentioned in a comment on the original post that my hubby suggested therapy, he feels like the only reason I was offended by SIL is because I have not gotten over the fact that I had an emergency C-section. I mean he is right but I just really want HIM to talk to his sister is that so wrong, I want his support and for him to make things clear to her. If you are wondering whether I have support system like family then no I don't, my parents are in a different country and I live in my husband's home country. I do have a few friends. That is why I appreciate all your kind comments, they mean a lot to me really. Relevant Comments Commenter 1: NTA. "It's not a 'woman's birth thing'. It's MY birth thing and you're MY partner, and that means that when YOUR family acts like an asshole towards me, YOU need to be the one to step between us and tell them to back the fuck off. I don't care what her reasons are. I've told her flat out not to do a thing and she keeps doing it. If my dad or brother came over and told you about how you're doing parenting wrong, how you're a failure as a husband and a father, how would you feel if I just told you to talk to my daddy about my brother picking on you? Instead of standing up for you? You're making me feel like you agree with everything she's saying, and that's making me rethink how this relationship is going. And if I feel like you can actually protect and provide for me. You're not even protecting me from your family. That's pretty shitty." OOP: He says his hands are tied, but yet again nobody wants me to and up to SIL and offend her. He expressed his displeasure about my post too. Commenter 1: Because it makes him look bad. His hands are tied by himself. NO one's holding him down. He's choosing his family over the one he's making with you. That speaks pretty loud. "Do you want to be a part of OUR family, or do you want to be a weekend dad because I clearly can't trust your judgement or trust you in general if you keep letting your family harass me. Your mom is not my fucking moderator. She's not my mom. She's also not without fault. There's a bias there. Where do you think your sister gets it? I'm not playing a game with someone over who can parent MY child best. I'm the parent. My say, between me and your sister, is the final one. If you can't back me up, then I think you're making it pretty clear where I stand and what I should do moving forward." OOP: I feel s stupid cause he has been doing this since we got married, I should've established this then maybe then I wouldn't be on reddit asking for help. I have to have a talk with him, hopefully he hears me out. Thank you for your advice. Commenter 2: I would very very very seriously consider leaving husband to his family and taking the baby home to her own parents for a few months or years. If husband wants to come move to her, that's fine. But, he needs to sit down with her Dad and talk to her Dad because that's Men's Business. And her dad will rip him a new one. OOP: My parents are back home in our country. So my inlaws are my family here. He can't sit with my Dad because my dad doesn't like him, he tolerates him and is civil but isn't fond of him. Commenter 3: Yeah don’t wait to see a therapist. I had PPD after I had my son. The therapist had no problem with me bringing him to my appointments. OOP: I found one and they don't mind my son being there in my sessions. I am yet to meet up with her for my first appointment. Commenter 4: Where to start… please tell your husband if he needs to stay away from anything involving vaginas that he can keep it in his pants from now on OOP: Funny you say that when he talked bout a sibling for Ky haha, he said it as a joke. I am so not ready again and won't be anytime soon.   Update #2: June 14, 2025 (four days later) Hey everyone, first off I would like to thank you all for the support I got on my 2 other posts. The love and support you gave me was more than appreciated and it have me the courage to do what I did today. I saw some comments saying I named my son a "tragedeigh", My husband and I agreed that I would pick the first name and he would pick the middle name so we both get to name him. If you don't like the name then I don't know how to help you with that, besides I did not want his first name on the post so I used his other name Kyson. I now realized that I could've just used a fake name. Today a lot happened, I talked to my SIL an MIL and I also talked to my husband, it went TERRIBLE actually that is an understatement to what happened today. My talk with SIL and MIL took place at my MIL'S house at around 10am. I got there and they were already there, I expected my hubby to have gone with me but he didn't. My SIL got to the point and asked me why I was so upset at her. I reminded her all that she said to me and she said "was I wrong tho, you are just offended that I spoke the truth." I remembered all the advice I got from your comments and I told her what I had learnt about placenta previa and her misinformation. I also told her about the difference between Round Ligament Pain and Placenta Previa And what I went through. She rolled her eyes and said that's what doctors want to do so they make money off of C-sections. My MIL the whole time sat there defending her and saying I shouldn't take it to heart while SIL still stood on all she said. SIL called me incompetent and sensitive so I said some colourful words and was walking out, btw I was baby wearing. She grabbed my arm and pulled me telling me she isn't done talking and that I am walking away with her nephew. I told her to let me go or I'll get her arrested for handling me in that manner so she let go. I told them when they are ready to behave like adults then they will see Kyson. I was so scared of standing up for myself but I did it, my hands were shaking lol. I got home and hubby wasn't there so I got Ky to take a nap and called my dad, I spilled everything to him and he was furious, he told me to either move out or fly back home. I told him I have to talk to hubby first and I will tell them how things go. When hubby got home later in the afternoon I was breastfeeding, he came into the living room and asked how the meeting went. I could tell he had a sour mood. I told him it went bad and he told me "oh I know". He told me that his mother is so hurt by my disrespect. I told him how they behaved and he told me that I am trying to say his mother is a liar. So basically his mom called and told him I was screaming and shouting at them, she told him I was hysterical and even rattled Ky up. SIL backed MIL up so it was like a tag team. I explained what actually happened and he said all this drama wouldn't be happening if I didn't overreact to a few comments made at the party. I was shocked, I told him I thought he was supposed to defend me and he said he can't ruin the relationship with his family because of my insecurities. I told him that I will leave with my son and go to people who actually care about me and that my dad will book my flight. I walked away with Kyson and he grabbed my arm and said his son goes nowhere, he told me he was tired of my continuous complaints about his family. He said of I was still hurt by those comments then maybe I'm the problem and need to look into fixing it. He brought up a few memories I don't wanna mention but just past experiences with his family. At this point it was getting loud and Ky was crying so I told hubby to relax. He didn't, let just say the living room wall understood he was angry. So I told him I want to go somewhere I feel safe. I left with Ky and we are currently in a hotel. I want to move to another city, and start life fresh there, I can request for a transfer. My husband expresses himself audibly when angry so what happened after that was so unusual and a shock. He has called me asking me to come home and that he was just frustrated. He know this account and he know about the posts, so he saw the comments that I got. He sent a message about how I let strangers love the internet get into my head and convince me against my family, he said he felt torn between supporting his sister and supporting me and I can't blame him for not knowing which side to take. I told him I don't want Ky to grow up in such an environment and stopped replying. I don't know if I was dramatic or I did too much. I still don't understand why he got so angry and why he reacted that way. I also wanna know why his mom and sister lied to him. I don't know there's a lot of uncertainty right now but Ky and I are safe. I will talk to a lawyer about the next steps to take. I feel at peace, I have gone through so much in my 5 years of marriage, I now want to raise my son in a healthy environment. Thank you for all the support really. Comment from OOP's husband OOP's husband (downvoted): I'm sick of this, evey account make is deleted and it's cause nobody want to hear MY SIDE. [Redacted] I HOPE YOU ARE HAPPY BREAKING YOUR OWN FAMILY UP CAUSE OF THESE STRANGERS. YOU CLEARLY ENJOY STRANGERS ON THE INTERNET CALL ME VILE WORDS. please unblock me, I stull deserve to see my son. OOP: Don't say my name on a public app. I am happy because I am safe, stop posting stories trying to get attention. You were barely there when I was carrying Kyson now you want to see him. If I was to list everything you have done to me and you had allowed your sister to do, reddit wouldn't allow that. Just remind your sister that I have a burn mark. I stayed through all this. Please stop embarrassing yourself. Relevant Comments Commenter 1: I am so proud of you for standing your ground. You have absolutely done the right thing for yourself and your son. Book the next flight back to your parents and allow them to support and cherish both of you. Sending all my love and strength to you, you brave brave woman xxx OOP: I'm not sure about brave since it took 5 yrs to do this. thank you. Downvoted Commenter: Not sure what your other post is about exactly or where it is (I’ll look after this comment) but your SIL isn’t 100% wrong that docs say some things to encourage C Sections as they cost $$$. I say it because it happened to me. No need to also say “I will have you arrested” about she grabbed you. She didn’t punch you. I feel like you saying that already is asking for more Tension. You said you already said some “colorful words” so that could’ve been enough. it sucks they’re tag teaming up on you but I feel like you’re being dramatic with the c section comments. OOP: It's not about the c section, I was there to eventually talk this out and make peace or try to be civil. Its not about the C-section, although it's not appreciated her making me feel like I could have prevented almost dying. In my country forcibly holding someone from levin can have you arrested so yes I could, cause he held my hand while was baby wearing and pulled me towards her, if I had fell that would have been a charge for child endangerment. Where is OOP located? OOP: South Africa** Commenter 2: Is that where you are, or where your family is? It might help you get better legal advice if you update the original post with both where you are, and where your family is. For example, I'm in the US and don't know anything about the laws in South Africa. There's a lot of people rooting for you! Hugs from an internet stranger. OOP: My parents are in the Philippines. Thank you so much. Commenter 3: He reads the comments? Good. Dear OPs husband, you are just as abusive as your sick family. Your sister is entitled and enabled by your mother. You are spineless for even considering choosing them over your wife. Your wife IS your family. She is the mother of your child. You have now lost your family because you couldn’t cut the umbilical cord from your own mother. However it seems to be for the better as no sane person would want a child to be around any of you. Sincerely, people who actually care about your wife’s and child’s safety. OOP: High chance he saw this Can OOP leave where she is at? OOP: I can leave the city, not country, cause of his parental rights, he would need to authorize an international trip. It sounds like it's not the first time the MIL and SIL has lied to OOP's husband OOP: you are right it is not, his sister has been physically expressive with her anger once. He went LC with her after that incident but then they made up. Commenter 4: Did you take your personal documents (passport, IDs, birth certificate etc)? If not, get a friend to go with you to retrieve it from your home. Don’t go alone. Do not be anywhere alone that your disgusting husband and his family can get to you unprotected. OOP: I just prioritized getting my documents and my son's belongings.   Update #3: June 15, 2025 (next day) Hi everyone, I wanna thank you for the support I received on my last post it really meant a lot to me. I did not reply to all your comments but I saw most of them and I appreciate all the advice I got. This is is my last update for a few months, I will final update maybe around December or November. Happy (belated) Father's Day to all the wonderful dad's out there, biological or not, kids or not, you are all amazing. So the police took my statement and I showed them the bruising, they opened a file for my case. They talked to my husband and SIL advising them to keep their distance. I want to apply for a protection order so they don't come near Kyson and I. My SIL, Hubby and MIL have not contacted me since their talk with the cops, as for our marriage it's definitely over. Since I am a foreigner I can't just pack and leave especially since we have a child together. I would need his father's consent to leave the country and we all know he will not give permission for that. I talked to a lawyer about my options and the laws around dv, travel, and custody. Legal action is going to take time. The protection order could take a few weeks. Since I want to leave and take away his parental rights, I have to prove dv and that he is unfit and can potentially hurt Kyson. Kyson also needs a passport. The whole legal process will take time, months if we are speaking. If my husband does contest anything then it will take even longer. I was told it could 6 months or more to fully sort out the custody and permission to leave the country with baby Ky. It's not gonna be fast but I'm willing to have the patience for this if it means safety for my son and I. Good news is my parents and brothers are flying over, they will arrive end of this week. So yeah, yesterday that was all I did, met the police and a lawyer, also moved to live with a friend of mine and her husband. My dad and brothers said they want to talk to my husband (soon to be ex) about men stuff, I don't think that's a good idea lol. The stress and everything of this has made my milk supply drop significantly, in my first post I mentioned in the comments that it is low but it has gotten worse. I really want to be able to fully feed my baby andi tr so hard to be hydrated and eat well. I need sleep, Ky has also been very fussy. This update might be all over the place but I made progress. Hopefully in a few months time I will be giving a great update from my parents house. I didn't do a lot but there's so much to do but it's one step at a time. I might not respond to all your comments but I promise I see your advice and appreciate it heavily. Thank you for all the support.💗 🙏🏽 Relevant Comments How did OOP get to see a lawyer that quickly? OOP: I know. In my other post I mentioned connections when in the comments, I don't know if you saw that. I have to meet him again to open a case file and start everything. I'm glad he explained my options to me. Commenter 1: All I could hear when reading what your soon-to-be-ex husband was “wah wah wah, I’m a mommy’s boy who wants his bottle, wah wah wahhh” good for you, OP, who needs that shit. OOP: Funny thing is his mom doesn't like him that much lol. I don't get how he is a mommas boy but she doesn't like him   DO NOT COMMENT IN LINKED POSTS OR MESSAGE OOPs – BoRU Rule #7 THIS IS A REPOST SUB - I AM NOT OOP submitted by /u/Choice_Evidence1983 to r/BestofRedditorUpdates [link] [comments]

Tldr; my husband, who's really great in general, wants to go on a boys trip with his brother while we have a newborn at home and i'm going back to work. So, my husband (34m) and I (28f) just had a baby boy. He's amazing, precious, and very gassy at times. I had a c-section, not by choice, and am still recovering. Baby boy is about two weeks old. My husband is great, he shares all the responsibilities with me, supports me postpartum, and really makes sure baby boy and I are happy and healthy. The thing is, my husband hasn't worked for a while now and i'm the sole provider at the moment. His dad passed away about two months ago and he had to leave me when I was 9 months pregnant (his family lives in a different country) for 3 weeks because none of his siblings wanted to manage everything around his dad's passing away. He stopped working when he left and hasn't gotten back to it since. We have talked about it and he will get back to work in the near future (a month or so). I worked until the day I gave birth, I own a small business and need to get back to partial work in a few days. I will have to get back to full time in about 3 weeks. Now, my husband has a brother that isn't the best family guy. He provides very little for his family, has 5 kids he often leaves his wife alone with, only "helps to babysit" sometimes and in general isn't really there unless it has to do with keeping the kids alive at max. My husband's brother won some football tickets about 6 months ago and invited my husband and his dad to go with (my husband had to pay for his submission to that contest tho). Now that my FIL passed away, my husband's brother wants them both to go to that football game abroad and stay for 4 days. My husband doesn't just want to go, he made it a fact, and says his brother said this would be a trip in memory of their father. Idk how i'll do 4 days with baby boy alone at home. He will be a 5 weeks old and I will be freshly back to work. My mom will be able to help but I can't just leave the kid with her at this stage. I told my husband there's no way he's leaving and now he is mad at me and says he will be going anyway and i'm an asshole for not understanding him. I will say, before their father died, I still daid the same thing - i'll have a newborn at home and won't want him to leave. This has been known for over 6 months now.

On the morning of December 24, 1984, the body of a newborn baby girl was pulled out of a creek by two boys in Mendham Township, New Jersey. At autopsy it was discovered that the infant had been born alive and had died of exposure, with the death ruled a homicide. Although little could be done in 1984 to identify her the case was never shelved; she was eventually buried in 1989 under the name of "Baby Mary", with a memorial service being held at St. Joseph's Church in Mendham Township every Christmas Eve on the anniversary of her discovery. Last week the Morris County Sheriff's Office, the Morris County Prosecutor's Office, and the Mendham County Police announced that they have identified Baby Mary's parents using "new technology". The mother has been arrested and charged with juvenile manslaughter, as she was a minor at the time and this is the only charge available to them. Her name is also not being released due to her having been a minor. The child's father is deceased; the police say there's no evidence he knew of the pregnancy, let alone of the child's birth or death. Mendham Township Police Chief Ross Johnson said at the press conference, “Every Christmas Eve for the past 35 years, members of our department and community have left their own families at noon to remember Baby Mary at a service by her grave, to ensure she is never forgotten. Today, we are finally able to bring closure to this case and the community that has supported her." https://www.morriscountynj.gov/Morris-County-News/Charge-Filed-in-1984-Cold-Case-Homicide-of-“Baby-Mary” https://www.nbcphiladelphia.com/news/national-international/cold-case-of-baby-mary-newborn-found-dead-in-blanket-in-nj-woods-in-1984-cracked/3641009/ https://www.dailyrecord.com/picture-gallery/news/crime/2023/09/07/prosecutor-announce-charges-in-1984-baby-mary-cold-case/70787453007/ https://www.doenetwork.org/cases/1005ufnj.html https://unidentified-awareness.fandom.com/wiki/Baby_Mary submitted by /u/Basic_Bichette to r/UnresolvedMysteries [link] [comments]

I’m a single man and honestly I’ve always wanted to be a dad. My first attempt was through adoption. That ended in heartbreak when his mother changed her mind after giving birth. Then again trying to adopt a 2 year old boy, his grandmother grew attached to him so she tried to object to the adoption process and after spending too much time fighting it out in court I let it go because it became too painful trying to keep this boy from a family that clearly loved him even if his parents weren’t around. I’ve been on a waiting list ever since but finally decided to look into a different avenue. Surrogacy was my option. And I took it. Now I’ve got my beautiful son. He was born just last night. And he’s absolutely perfect. I haven’t been able to keep my eyes off him because he’s finally here!! This really is the best day of my life. I still can’t believe it. After all the struggling I’m finally a dad and couldn’t be happier. submitted by /u/neverrthought_ to r/TrueOffMyChest [link] [comments]

In April of 1984, the body of a baby boy is discovered on White Strand beach in Caherciveen, Co. Kerry. Gardai (Irish police) launched an investigation into the murder of the child, which initially led to the arrest of Joanne Hayes, who lived in close proximity to White Strand. Joanne was arrested under suspicion of the murder of the infant with the initial reasoning being “she was known to have been pregnant” What’s important to note here is the common mistreatment of single mothers in Ireland even well into the late 1980s. Abortion, sex outside of marriage,contraception and even divorce were contentious topics in Ireland, as far as the 1990s. we don’t have to look much further than the mother and baby homes scandal for evidence of how a country so heavily influenced by the Catholic Church, treated children and unwed mothers. Joanne was arrested and was believed to have initially confessed to the killing of the baby found on the beach, however she shortly withdrew her confession, and instead stated that she had given birth to a baby who died shortly after being born. She stated she buried this baby on the family farm. Gardai persisted that she was in fact the mother of the baby on the beach, who I’ll refer to as ‘Baby John’ as he became known on the media. When blood tests revealed the baby had a different blood type to Joanne and the birth father of the baby buried on the farm, gardai insisted she had sex with two men, in a close time frame, and as a result baby John must have his fathers blood type. Joanne Hayes was charged with murder however the case was thrown out by the judge and a tribunal was established in order to investigate the behaviour of the gardai in this case. The judge claimed that Joanne strangled her baby to stop the child from crying, despite the state pathologist being unable to confirm a cause of death. He also rejected claims from the Hayes family that they had been subjected to abuse by the gardai, and that gardai had physically forced a confession from Joanne and her family. A 2018 review of DNA would reveal that Joanne Hayes was not the mother of Baby John, and as a result received an apology from the minister for justice and the Taoiseach. On the 14th of September 2021, the body of Baby John was exhumed to be re-examined in the hopes of finding more answers in the 37 year old mystery.

I (19M) made a blanket for my coworker (24F) as a present for her baby boy that was due the next month. It was 100% cotton, handmade, and free, as it was just me being nice. Once he was born, she was overjoyed. But when she used the blanket to swaddle her son, he ended up getting a rash from the material. She blamed me, and accused me of being inconsiderate and not taking caution of her child's allergy. I argued that he was a newborn and it was a gift, informing her that nobody can know the allergies of their child before they are born. She got upset and demanded I made her a new blanket that her child wasn't allergic to. I refused because 1) she didn't pay me for anything the first time 2) she refused to pay me for anything this time and 3) I don't have the time anymore, as I have other orders to make for actual paying customers. I told her that I would reconsider if she offered to pay the labor fee, and I could waive her material cost as a discount, but this wasn't good enough for her. So, I gotta ask, aita for not making her another blanket? Edit: for those of you asking if it could be the detergent, I didn't wash it before giving it to her. And those mentioning knitting, its one of those knot blankets where its two fabrics tried on top of each other to make it thicker. I thought I should mention that. submitted by /u/therealkeeenski to r/AmItheAsshole [link] [comments]

Me F23 And my husband M26 had our baby girl 3 weeks ago, she's a blessing and she's been filling my time with joy even though it's been difficult for us since we never experienced this before. My husband has been acting weird lately, He's been stressing out and worrying too much about doing something wrong when caring for our baby, he did a number of things that really got me concerned, he would walk out whenever our daughter starts to cry but that was in the first week and thank God he doesn't do it anymore, he wouldn't hold her fearing he'd drop her, he doesn't help with changing diapers saying he doesn't know, he always calls his mom for "advice" which she sees as an opportunity to step in and take my baby from me. He'd get worried and starts panicking whenever she coughs and mention the hospital, This all has been affecting me as well, it's so exahusting and I started to be negatively affected by his behavior. Yesterday, he was talking to his buddy on the phone, his buddy told him that next week the group will be going on a trip for 5 days, my husband got excited and told him to count him in. He came to tell me that he "decided" to go with the guys on the trip for five days as an opportunity to "get away from all this stress", I looked at him and told him he was being selfish to go on a trip and leave me to take care of our daughter alone, he said no problem, he'll just call his mom to come stay with me or I go stay at her place for just five days, he begged me saying this trip was necessary because he was on the verge of breaking down and complained about "how he didn't expect it to be like this" meaning having a baby, I was speechless, once his mom takes my daughter she refuses to give her back, would start taking pictures, inviting people to visit, trys to feed her with formula and criticizes my breastfeeding "it's not enough", it's a nightmare. But he argued saying I was just jealous because he'd get to get fresh air while I'll be stuck at home, he said he won't waste this opportunity and is going with or without my consent. I yelled at him because he was unreasonable, but he's sticking to his decision and is talking about how my post partum is making me say/do all of this. submitted by /u/throwra6001397 to r/AmItheAsshole [link] [comments]

Story time: my brother's girlfriend went to the doctor on Friday for back pain. Doctor looked her over and informed her that it was not back pain, but labor and she was 36 weeks pregnant! She had had no symptoms, regular periods, no weight gain or nausea. Not 24hrs after learning she was pregnant, she birthed a healthy baby boy. Now, she and my brother are in their early 20s, but they are not in a financial or relationship place where they can support a baby. Thankfully, my husband and I have been discussing children, although we hadn't decided if we wanted to adopt or have our own child. After hearing of my brother's dilemma, we offered to adopt the baby instead of allowing him to go into foster care. TLDR: My son was born 2 days ago, and I have had no time to prepare! Help me, please!!! Edit: For those who are concerned, the birth parents are both doing well now. The decision to give the baby to us was not difficult for them. They are just SUPER relieved to have an alternative to foster care for the baby. submitted by /u/KTDid95 to r/TwoXChromosomes [link] [comments]
