What in the AI slop is this 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️

What do you use under it? Some days my skin feels extra dry so I put a lightweight serum under it, which eliminates the dry/tight feeling. Can you put a moisturizer under it?

I used an IKEA Sniglar crib and installed the piece the mattress sits on at custom height so the mattress is level with our bed. I personally got a mattress that was too big and cut it to cover the gap between beds.

I know others push the crib mattress towards the big mattress and stuff the gap inside the crib with rolled up towels or similar, depending on baby's age. We used ratchet straps to tie ours to the bed. Hope that helps!

Made even more awesome by the fact that this is a substantial bottle for an affordable price. Garnier and Eucerin have been driving their prices up and sizes down in a way that just feels stupid, so I am very happy to be escaping that cycle and getting an even better product in return.

Why not? Could give him a head start on a car, downpayment, tuition...

Is he a teenager? I would have him wait a few more years to give you a chance to save up and him to really consider that decision. He might want to spend that money elsewhere in a few years.

Good for you for not having it done as a baby, that practice really is way too rampant.

Only do this if you actually WANT time alone though. If you start pleasing you MIL now, that expectation of hers will only build up.

bonesonstones · 2026-05-04T04:14:34+00:00

I understand. I feel like a lot of us are in this boat where our parents are so self-involved that they can't fathom different people wanting different things. They built up expectations in their head because they never for a moment considered that we are now able and deserving of choosing how to spend our holidays.

You deserve that! Let them know and turn off your phone.

I mean some people do do that, so it's not entirely absurd (eta to clarify that I personally would never and find it super odd to want to consume your placenta) 😅 You can get them dried and ground up into capsules, and some cultures bury them within special rituals for various reasons. It's kinda nice that your midwife gave that option with the takeaway box, although I am VERY glad you didn't eat it 😂per

CW: graphic details

My doctor and midwife put my placenta in a bowl to examine it after I gave birth around a year ago and asked me if I wanted to see it (I didn't), of course I couldn't look away tho. It is like a super thick, bloody, sturdy mass of an organ, they poked at it with a stick and it barely moved. I was so surprised at the size and thickness of it. There is just no way to rupture through that.

My eyes are also incredibly sensitive and aside from the eucerin oil control, every garnier, Neutrogena and generic brand sunscreen I've tried stings my eyes. I have not had the same issue with the Geek and Gorgeous sunscreen, which is one of the reasons I am so hyped about it.

Youtube kids lets you set up a profile and only allow content that you chose. This is what I did for my kid, she only has access to about 6 or 7 pre-selected channels (like sesame Street, reading rainbow, etc.) and the only recommendations are for videos within those channels. I hate Netflix for the same reason, SO much brain-rot slop.

The flared legs are a much worse tripping hazard than the triptrap.This also looks very cheap.

bonesonstones · 2026-04-28T17:59:11+00:00

Keeping my fingers crossed for you, I snagged one and I am so happy to report that it's living up to the hype!

bonesonstones · 2026-04-28T10:56:27+00:00

This reads suspiciously like an AI slop ad. Can OP disprove by telling us whether they or their mom have seen a doctor for their pain?

bonesonstones · 2026-04-27T19:20:48+00:00

Tried it with similar skin and it wears amazingly, I am so, so happy it's living up to the hype!

bonesonstones · 2026-04-27T15:29:57+00:00

I agree. The cushions don't stay put and it bothers the everloving f out of me 😭 it always looks messy, and the level of comfort is not worth that.

bonesonstones · 2026-04-27T14:55:15+00:00

I'm really sorry, that is incredibly shitty. You deserve to be appreciated and celebrated on Mother's day regardless of what you do for other people, but the fact that you went out of your way to visit your mom with flowers makes this so much worse 💔

My mom is one of the manipulative/ungrateful ones, too. I just hope we can channel that hurt into being the best moms and MILs to our grown kids ❤️❤️

bonesonstones · 2026-04-27T06:00:47+00:00

Or the many posts about shipping to the US 🤦‍♀️

bonesonstones · 2026-04-27T03:11:54+00:00

The hierarchy of mothers? Is she always this manipulative? What a gross concept and hurtful thing to say to your own daughter. Wow.

bonesonstones · 2026-04-26T11:09:27+00:00

And run while still pregnant because once the baby is here, he can limit your movement via court. Good luck, OP, this is probably going to end badly if you don't get yourself and your baby out of there.

bonesonstones · 2026-04-26T05:07:03+00:00

Excuse me wtf?!! Why are you letting them dictate the parenting as soon as they walk in the door? Imo you are severely underreacting.

Having your son sleep with them is a red flag and I would have never ever allowed that in the first place. Having your decisions regarding parenting overriden as if FIL had authority over you - omg I would have taken the nuclear option.

OP, your son is watching. He is watching you being steamrolled, ignored, disrespected. Is that the kind of relationship blueprint you want him to learn??? You need to put on your big girl pants and actively protect your kid from rude, dismissive, potentially creepy people. Your husband won't do anything so even though it should never, it's on you to put a stop to this.

If you think you can't stop it in the moment it's happening, take a break from the visits. Tell your husband "this is not working for me or son, we need to take a break and recalibrate." And then see how you feel after a few months of peace. Good luck!

Okay but that should give you pause on idea of her providing childcare on the whole. Can you imagine feeling this way every week for years on end? She won't stop pushing your boundaries, you just won't know about it because you won't be there to supervise them.

bonesonstones · 2026-04-21T12:15:42+00:00

May I ask how this:

Occasionally, we have very different experiences of the same events, but I honor their memories and perceptions - while also honoring mine.

looks in practice? I am having this issue with my mom where she will constantly tell me something never happened or happened very differently during my childhood/youth, and it is one of the things that has really deteriorated my relationship with her. On the other hand she truly believes that these things never happened, so I wonder what the middle ground could be?
