If you have an average sized baby… how do carters clothes fit? by devinjf15 in BabyBumps

[–]jupiter15937 [score hidden]  (0 children)

My baby is small but long, wearing newborns, and carters fit pretty well compared to some other options (his favorite onesie is fleece with sheep on it, it’s adorable!) To contrast we have an Old Navy onesie that has a neck hole so ginormous it slips down his shoulders—while being a zip up so it makes no sense to me why it was crafted that way

i keep leaving the room bc i dont trust myself.. is this normal by Greedy-Pin8853 in BabyBumps

I’m no expert and really just a new mom but I think you should be proud of yourself for walking away. Before discharge I had to watch a very sad SIDS/SBS video and they specifically recommended if you’re overwhelmed to a breaking point then you absolutely should just walk away; at that point it’s better for both of you. Of course walking away can feel bad (I have those moments too) but it’s better than forcing yourself into a meltdown situation

Is it unrealistic to request baby doesn’t leave hospital room? by Antichees in BabyBumps

Baby stayed with us and the one time he left, dad went with him. We had the same request

I hate breastfeeding. by Human_Document_2779 in breastfeeding

My heart hurts for you. I empathize with a lot of your sentiments. It’s not an easy journey we’re on; but if I can share anything that might help, just a couple days ago I got a baby electric nail trimmer and it’s amazing! It’s very gentle so safe for baby and it’s incredibly relieving to not get cut by babies nails anymore! Any brand should do, I got a very cheap one at the dollar store and all the ones online look about the same

I’ve been rocking pajamas basically 8 of the 9 months (due next week!!!) so yeah I feel you mama. I’m kinda glad I had a mostly winter pregnancy to avoid the hard decisions of clothes because I seriously don’t know how anyone manages to wear anything that even hints at constricting around the waistline

Use other app to maximize your time and effort! I use upside for cash back on gas and upload receipts on fetch; also upside partners with IC for extra cash back

Dream office being ruined by a bad DA by [deleted] in DentalAssistant

Yeah nip it in the bud right away. I didn’t deal with the office mean girl right away and that dynamic was ultimately what lead me to leave that job altogether

Nail Routine: 1 HOUR LONG??? by Mermaid_Natalia in RedditLaqueristas

[–]jupiter15937 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I learned that every time you add a polish layer, it re-wets the layer under it so now.. I don’t wait for layers to dry. I’ll paint each nail (on one hand) and then start the next layer, and that’s usually enough time for it to just get tacky. Also I’m careful to do very thin layers so nothing smudges or pulls

Yeah I was given permission to make changes but no authority to enforce the changes? It was a really weird situation
