How do bikinis not feel just as exposing as underwear? in c/showerthoughts@lemmy.world

Well considering I’m going to be around my son and other family members that’s not really possible lmao.

It’s more of the general exposure of my midriff, cleavage, and cheeks. But I’ll probably just say fuck it and rock it anyways lol.

I’m a momma and I was planning on driving my son down to the beach with some family/friends. I haven’t worn a bikini since my younger days since I’m super busy nowadays as a single mom working 2 jobs. As I was trying on some of my older bikinis, I couldn’t help but wonder how my younger self was confident enough to be this exposed. I’m not insecure about my body or anything, actually I’m pretty confident since I go to the gym often, so genuinely how do other women have the confidence to rock a bikini?

Tattoo reccomendations? in c/asklemmy@lemmy.ml
[–] liyah27@lemmy.world 1 points 16 hours ago (1 children)

Probably will go with his full name since it’s pretty short. My work is pretty lax about tattoos, some of my coworkers have full sleeves. As per letter style, something like a soft cursive would be nice and I’m pretty open to any color depending on the design. I’m sorta just looking for any creative ideas for some inspiration.

Now that you say this, I had a talk recently with him about me wanting to date again and the possibility of a stepdad

I’m a young mom with a pre-teen son and he’s called me “mommy” up until he was about 10 and a half. Since then he’s been calling me “Ma” which I find pretty cute. Especially when he extends it to “Maaa” when yelling from another room. Maybe it’s a southern thing lol. Just curious about what y’all call your moms?

I’ve been a single momma for a few years now and I was thinking about getting a small tattoo of my son’s name/initial. Location wise I was thinking on my collar. I already have a few other small tattoos down my spine and on my sternum from when I was younger. Any suggestions?

He tells me he gets scared at night as well. He also has diagnosed hyperactive ADHD which might make him restless at night.

He does have diagnosed ADHD, but thanks for the advice, will definitely try this.

I had him when I was 15!

Edit: No worries, most people are usually surprised when they find out I’m a 27 year old mother with a 12 year old child.

Thoughts on co-sleeping ? (lemmy.world)
 

I’m a 27 year old single mother and I have a 12 year old son. Recently he’s been knocking on my door in the middle of the night because he can’t sleep and he asks to sleep with me. I’ve been letting him since neither of us really have a problem with it and it’s kind of nice not having to sleep alone every night. However, I’ve heard and seen some things online that seem controversial about co-sleeping with a child past a certain age. I definitely don’t want to negatively affect his development, so I guess what are your thoughts?

My son doesn't want me interacting with his friends in c/parenting@lemmy.world
[–] liyah27@lemmy.world 13 points 2 days ago (1 children)

Thanks for the advice! I guess it’s just hard seeing him grow up so fast. I’ll give him his space and honestly you’re right about just being grateful he’s comfortable having his friends over.

My son doesn't want me interacting with his friends (lemmy.world)
 

I’m a single mother of a 12 year old boy and recently he told me he was gonna have some friends over, but he asked me if I could stay in my room while they hangout. After some arguing I did end up staying in my room for the most part outside of bringing them snacks/drinks. I was kind of hurt because I want to be that cool/friendly mom to my son’s friends and I want to get to know who my son is hanging out with. I’m definitely on the younger end for a mother of a 12 year old since I had him extremely early, so I feel like I’d be less embarrassing than other moms. Any time I’ve offered to chaperone for school events, he’s begged me not to. What should I do? Is this just a phase?
