I’m not crying, you’re crying.
I read this while feeding my daughter and had to stifle laughter..... I had a traumatic birthing experience that resulted in an emergency c-section... there is a weird stigma around c-section births, I just wanted to say FICK THAT. Vaginal birth or cesarean birth, YOU ARE A FUCKING QUEEN.
You’re doing a great job as a parent.
Dear parent,
you’re reading this right now. Maybe browsing imgur is the first “you” moment you have had all day. You are doing a terrific job as a parent. And you are wonderful.
Go enjoy that treat you hid from your kids. Or a juice box.

Hubby found these while we sit in the quiet after football practice and bedtime just enjoying the silence.
PrettyBasicNotABitch
It is the first "me" moment of the day! So, thank you. These all made me smile and laugh. As a new mom, I can totally relate!
AwesomeInThePotatoes
i want to have kids just so i can have that snack bitch shirt!
MrRibeye
As a parent, this is all 100% true. And totally worth it.
GingerAndViolets
I needed this today, thank you.
SpringToMyWinter
This is why I got a puppy
chicamery
Yes! Never have kids! Enjoy that puppy.
uogirl
Thank you so much for this <3

I, too, had a traumatic emergency c-section. You can go into the birthing room thinking whatever you want, but the baby makes the choices 1/
mournfulgoddess
But our little girl is a healthy 3mo and cute as a button. PPD was rough, but she is worth all of it. Best choice ever. 2/

Feel free to PM me if you ever need a mom to talk to ?

About to be a dad, thanks for the prep @op! And the reminder to never naked carry child on shoulders.
mompreneur
Congrats on being a dad soon!!!
Miznizzelmix
Thanks! I love hearing everyone’s horror stories, I feel like it’s prepping me for the worst.

My good friends daughter hissed at her the other day. I laughed so hard cuz I knew exactly which child did it without her telling me.
CyanideSynn1221
Kay is a sassy little weirdo that's for sure. On a diff occasion she screeched and her mom told her to settle down. Kay looked at her and >
CyanideSynn1221
Replied with "hush". Again. I laughed my ass off.

I was ignoring the kid just now until she asked me to redraw a picture I did for her on her dry erase board that got smudged, so I fixed it.
PeroltaThatsEnough
I enjoyed this thoroughly. +1
skellington01
Fact: not all parents reading this are I fact doing a good job. Sorry. Please be good parents.
mompreneur
I wholeheartedly agree with this.I didn’t want to put a damper and add a shame on shitty parents caption. Be good people and be good parents

There's drama about having a c section? Luke what were you supposed to do just die luke it's 18-fuckinghundred?
nero4ty2
yeah, some moms will talk down to others because of it, they are dumb

it was his neighbor if i remember correctly, but it's been 30 years since i saw it
luciferousthefallen0
As a stay at home dad, these apply to whomever is around the children most, minus the ones about the privates... my privates are just fine.
mrbellek
Re: c-section not making you a real mother - well excuse me, I preferred my wife and kid *not* both dying in childbirth! Fuck that.
jackpkmn
I've got a fucked up shoulder for life because they didn't identify that i should have been a csec soon enough and had to break it to fit.
Smugglemesunshine
Yep. Caesareans save lives.

Children are a conundrum. They are the bane of your existence and they are the love of your life

I'm married with no kids and this isn't a good sell.

Kids are wonderfull and great but there is no good dell for them. They come with a lot of shit. But the cuddles, kisses and smiles, worth it
emilytangerine8910
*also married w/no kids* This shit is the best! Sleeping in on Sunday morning!
orangatuan
You are in trouble if you think this was an attempt to get people to have children.
chicamery
If you don’t think you want kids, don’t have them! It’s so easy not to have kids. No one cares whether you have them or not, except you.
EllipsThis
We started getting not so subtle grandkid comments before we were even married. I am sick of smiling and noncommittal answers.
IllGiveItAShot
.except folks who want to be grandparents or aunts/uncles - and they don't get a vote
VpomRurd
That's just downright false. There's no end to the people criticising your choice to not have children.
IntrovertTurtle
Actually may parents care. A lot. And won't shut up.
EatsBees
If you want kids, that's great! If you don't want kids, there's great! You do you, boo
chicamery
Exactly. Why the need to go on about not having kids for every post about how it’s not all sunshine and lollipops? I don’t get it.
IntrovertTurtle
Can you give the talk to my parents? Cuz they need it.
EatsBees
:( that sucks. Dress puppies and kittens in baby clothes? Change the subject whenever they get annoying?
unicorncentaur
C-section stigma? Wtf? Cord wrapped around my neck at birth. Was my mom meant to push me out strangled to death?!
CrazyGuyOnABike
Keep in mind this comes from the same morons who take a naturopath's word as gospel but accuse family docs of "corruption".
emilytangerine8910
It still came outta you. What’s the difference? Shits private.
whodathunkit
I am now 4.5 months pregnant and got told "Don't have a c-section, it will be like not having a baby at all" Thing is, and this is TMI, I
whodathunkit
have a tilted uterus, and there is a high probability I'm going to need a c-section, it wont make me any less of a mother.
mompreneur
My biggest mind set change was to call it a “cesarean birth” because it’s still a birth. Wishing you all the best with your little one xo
whodathunkit
Thank you, and yah that's what my mother said. I just want him to be healthy in the end!
ThatNameWasTaken
I love my daughter, being a dad has been the singular joy of my life. I’d suggest treating your kid like a person and not a responsibility.
IllGiveItAShot
It's a person and a responsibility and that's not a bad thing (dad of two)
ThatNameWasTaken
Absolutely we have a responsibility but if you treat children like a chore and not a person you’re gonna have a bad time.
mompreneur
100% agree!! You are amazing!
chicamery
1. Why do people feel the need to comment about how they are never having kids? You never see comments like that on posts about pets.
chicamery
2. Why are they so defensive when it comes to kids? I really don’t give a shit if/when/why folks have kids or not.Why MUST they say/type it?
StarvedDemon
Society has always presumed everyone wants kids. People feel they are abnormal for not wanting kids so they speak out looking for likeness.
chicamery
I get that, but still. I would never comment on a post about trials of having a puppy with “yep, never having one of those!”
StarvedDemon
I really don't understand why you have a problem with people socializing on social media. Or should people only have conversations about 1
StarvedDemon
Things YOU personally think are important? Just because you would never say it doesn't mean there's something wrong with saying it. 2/2
whodathunkit
It's like when people feel they can tell you not to have kids when you are trying. Happened to me a lot Some people have to get their say in
Gremlynn4023
Probably because there aren't tons of people saying "Oh, I know you hate cats now, but you'll become a cat person once you get one!" /1
Gremlynn4023
AND simultaneously trying to curse an innocent, unborn child to 18+ years being raised by people who never wanted kids in the first place.

My wife wanted three. After the second one, we settled for two and a snip.

i solved that by just being generally unlovable.
mentaljake
That's been working for me so far too but I'd rather not leave anything to chance. You don't need love to have sex
chicamery
Good for you. Never have kids!

Should have had my husband do it two kids ago!
