I got to have a small sleep in today. The baby woke, I nursed him, and then his daddy took him and I rolled over and pulled the covers over my head and zzzzz

Feeling better. Needed the rest.

Identity 

@atinyfairy well, I definitely find a lot of stuff I read either very relatable, or it explains things, but I'm hesitant to self diagnose, mostly because I also wonder if it's just… other stuff. Or I'm wrong. I'm not very confident in making the call, I guess, same with the other question hanging over my head about sexual identity. So I just have this constant wondering. I don't even know myself.

Identity 

@atinyfairy oh
also
it's kind of relevant if I'm raising a kid regardless of if he is autistic
It could/will affect my parenting.

Identity 

@atinyfairy my psychologist just said she doesn't know much about that kind of thing, and that's it. The only reason I guess I'm interested in diagnosis is because I alternate between being sure and doubting, and because I would then at least know? It would explain many things.

Identity 

I suspect that I'm autistic and every time I mention it my friends (and especially my husband) discourage me from the idea of getting a diagnosis. :/

@Liophu *leaves dicks sitting in the bain marie to get all soggy and cold so they're not even good dicks by the time today gets to eat the whole buffet*

Back to the part of meditation where I put off meditating because??????

Like, why do I procrastinate about something that I ultimately enjoy????

But seriously, go enjoy some coffee or chocolate, right now, while you can.

Or it is right now before global warming destroys it, along with chocolate, and everything else I love.

YAY GOOD MORNING EVERYONE I AM SO CHEERFUL TODAY

Baby sleep and mother in law ranting 

I don't think she realises that every time she acts like I'm mental she erodes my ability to trust her.

Baby sleep and mother in law ranting 

Like, the judgement hurts, but on a practical level, I need someone I can trust to babysit. She desperately wants to be our babysitter.

But I need to know that she won't just keep him up "because he wants to spend time with us" and "I'm wearing him out so he sleeps better".

I need to know that if I trust her to take care of him, I won't have three days of sleep catchup work to do afterwards. Or I won't have to re-train him to sleep independently.

Baby sleep and mother in law ranting 

I keep asking myself why it matters to me what she thinks. Why I need her validation on this so badly.

Part of it is just that I hate feeling judged like I'm just some kind of high strung weirdo all panicked about sleep problems that don't exist.

But also… if she doesn't take this stuff seriously, and she wants to babysit for me… is she really someone I can TRUST??
