Y’all: letting boys play with dolls is GAY!!!
Also y’all: my husband doesn’t help with the baby at all he’s so worthless! Why do only MOMS know how to nurture!!
Spend a day in the ER when there’s a dead baby bc they weren’t buckled into their car seat correctly & then maybe you’ll take car seat safety more seriously. Hug the parents while they scream knowing they can’t go back in time and take an extra 2 mins to buckle their kid up.
Remember when my ex always told me I would be nothing without him so I left his ass, graduated nursing school, landed my dream job, bought my own house, AND take care of our daughter physically and financially by myself :)
I was just fussing at my 3 y/o for something and she stopped me and said very quietly and calmly “your shirt doesn’t match those pants I don’t like it very much” 😕
My 86 year old great grandmother who has Alzheimer’s just tried to physically fight me and swung her cane at me at 11:30 pm because I was (quietly) heating up pasta in my mom’s kitchen :)
Am I a freak or does anyone else have like a specific set of numbers that they see regularly? I see 10:17 every single day. Or like 1017 as an address or when I go to check out at a store my total is $10.17
I got Sutton a build a bear with my voice in it saying “I love you”. She’s in time out right now losing her absolute mind and I hear her push the paw and then say “SHE DOESN’T LOVE ME!!!!!”
My dad & I have always had a strained relationship. The last few months he has been sober. Called me regularly when before we would go months without talking. He passed away yesterday evening. And now I have so many voicemails from him that I wouldn’t have if he didn’t get sober.
Starting my nursing career in the ER at the beginning of a pandemic has been so wild. The days are long. The fear is real. I strip at my back door and take a boiling hot shower and disinfect everything I touched before I even let my daughter know that I’m home. Stay home.
So my daughter’s nana has a friend who passed away a few months ago. Every night when we pray she says “I pray that my nana’s friend gets better”. I don’t correct her bc it’s sweet. Last night she said it at the end of our prayer & then goes “Actually, she’s already dead. Amen.”
If this sounds harsh it’s because it is. Car seat safety isn’t a parenting choice. It’s life and death. Toddlers should not be in booster seats. Infants should not be forward facing. You don’t want to see the shit we see & you certainly don’t want it to be your reality.
Keep thinking about the other day when EMS brought me a patient w abdominal pain that was also an IV heroin user. I was treating him the same way I was treating my other 3 patients bc why wouldn’t I? He said “thank you for treating me like a person & not a junkie. I love you.” 🥺
“All lives matter” but not those Hispanic people in cages huh? Not that homeless man on the side of the road that has a problem with addiction huh? Not all those kids in foster care huh????
I don’t like to be very open about this usually but I just want to say two years ago was Mother’s Day 2018 and I was treated so awfully that day, I remember crying and praying for a chance to leave and two weeks later I left and never looked back :) I’m proud of myself today.
Do your research. The straps should be snug. The chest clip shouldn’t be on the belly. It’s not a matter of opinion. If you’re scrolling social media all day you can google how to properly strap a kid into a car seat. I don’t care if you’re going 5 min down the road. Do it.

Made her appearance after a long labor & then 5 minutes of pushing on April 17th, 2022 at 2:25 am
She is nursing like a champ and has not cried one single time. My peaceful little babe 🕊🤍
6 y/o cousin: it’s weird if boys wear nail polish
3 y/o daughter: no boys can do whatever they want, they can paint their nails or brush their teeth or wipe their butt if they want
Did a 6 week rotation on a labor & delivery unit and you would be surprised how many normal, low risk pregnancies ended up having emergency c sections. Some induced, some not induced, some with/without epis. Can y’all stop acting like healthcare providers are out to get you?
Sutton’s been laying down for 30 minutes now and I assumed she was sleeping, I just heard her say “mama?” from across the room so I said “what baby?” and she says “I really love you so much.”
When I was in nursing school I drove an hour with my daughter before the sun came up every day. I finished school as a single mom & went through an extremely hard/scary custody battle in the middle of it. Now I’ve bought us a house by myself. Your circumstances don’t control you.
This morning my 4 y/o asked why we can’t go anywhere so we had an in depth discussion about viruses and cells and now she won’t stop rubbing her foot on me and saying “haha we’re touching each other’s cells”
Fuck the tiktok nurses for bullying and dehumanizing patients and making the entire profession look bad. It’s our job to be the most compassionate/trustworthy people. To love and support people at their worst. And I’m ashamed to see the way some of y’all treat people/situations.
