I once accused my mom of having kids to get her dishes done. I remember being quite offended when she laughed at me.

Oh my, I'm rather deaf and have been for more than 30 years - nerve damage so hearing aids don't work. Babysitting the grandchildren and 7 year old is yelling around 10pm. Go up, ask what's the matter - she yells something which to me sounded really garbled and I couldn't understand. I ask her nicely to repeat it more slowly and quietly as I couldn't understand. More garble and why can't you understand me at the end. I'm deaf, I reply, surely you know this? Another headfit "You're lying, you're not deaf" Turns out that the only deaf children she knows all had cochlear implants, so you're not deaf unless you have one, ...

Don't Ask About Kid 3
nah just strap a pillow to 'em and leave some cereal within their reach... they'll be fine

I showed this to my wife and coffee shot out of her nose as she laughed. I've seen way too much of my sister in law who is on her 3rd child and still nurses the first one
Pacifiers: 1st kid drops - boil on stove for an hour; 2nd kid drops rinse under warm water; 3rd kid drops - suck it, spit and stick it back in. Never got to 4th - but woh.
With my first I was very careful with sitting in the best positions while breastfeeding and I would ask at all public places what their policies were regarding breastfeeding. Second child... I didn't care about breastfeeding in public, really. If there was a place to sit I would breastfeed there if baby was hungry. No matter what. Also, I didn't care too much about how correctly I was sitting while breastfeeding and sometimes I'd do it standing up/walking around. Now, with my third child it's been a crazy and fun ride. Lol. We do whatever positions we want to and I have been breastfeeding her quite a few times while walking. Also, had her with me to some meetings and I'd just pretty much say "oi, hope it's fine that I breastfeed!" While pulling out the boob. Lol. I'm sure it's been shocking to some ppl but nobody ever said anything. Am now very close to the end of breastfeeding my third kid. And I have done a fine job with all three kids! *proud mom* 😁
I always took care to feed my first "out of sight". Then my second was born. He was tiny and had trouble nursing. He had to be fed every hour, I stopped giving a sh*t soon after
