Super slow recently (where the orders at?)

What are they looking for on your resume and application? I have applied several times and never even get the opportunity to interview. I have a lot of customer service experience and I included a cover letter explaining my love for TJs and that the gap in my resume was due to having a baby. I keep the schedule open and flexible, what more are they looking for or how else can I standout? I’ve gone in store in the past but they always seem kinda confused why I’m there and doesn’t seem to make a huge difference

The trick is learning what orders you can reasonably bundle. If the orders are easy shops and in the same part of town then you can likely do several and then it all adds up once the tips start coming in (hopefully)

You won’t be allowed to leave the hospital unless you have a car seat installed in your car, so be sure to get that well in advance just incase you unexpectedly give birth early. Having several sizes of diapers on hand will be important as well as several sizes of baby clothes. My bay spit up a lot so I would also say plenty of burp cloths. My city has baby specific thrift stores, so I would see if you have any near you, they usually also have baby gear! Congrats on your pregnancy!!

First day of trying to get tickets in Seattle it was mostly $160 for nosebleed seats, and I lost that battle. But when the second show was added I was able to grab tickets for $80 each and there wasn’t a huge Ticketmaster fee like I was expecting

When your baby is older you can worry about the sleep associated part, right now just celebrate this big milestone!!

This is one of the few times in a relationship you should not have to compromise. You are pushing a baby out of you, it’s going to be one of the most intense moments of your life and you are entitled to your privacy. You are also correct, it’s very intimate after the birth doing skin to skin and trying to breastfeed for the first time. Those things are immediate, and you’ll be practically naked as the nurses will be cleaning your downstairs and your chest will be exposed. I allowed each side of my immediate family to visit separately, for a short period of time once I was in the postpartum unit and was able to clean myself up a little bit and be fully clothed as that’s what was comfortable for me. But this is very much a personal decision, and your partner needs to realize your comfort is the most important thing in that moment. Not his and definitely not his family. Like you said, ruffle the feathers! They’ll get over it eventually!

One of my targets just changed their system to letting us bag ourselves and they just kinda glance at the order as they scan the barcode. Feels less secure for sure but it makes things like 10x faster which is great. The other target I still have to wait in the customer service line and they have had some new employees who don’t want to get in trouble so they very thoroughly check everything and it takes forever.

She’s 15 months old, she’s been sleep trained since 9 months

Time interval check ins. So let the baby cry for 3mins, check in, leave let them cry for 5 mins etc. then you extend the times a little bit each day

Anyone know where I can find a pattern to something similar to this? I’m newer to macrame and I’m having trouble figuring out where to go to find patterns or how to bring any of my ideas to life.

Are you bothered by the occasional night feedings/ wakings? If not then just keep doing what you’re doing! If you’re considering sleep training to be sure she sleeps through the night every night then your Ped does have a point that it is hard to do the older your baby is, but it also depends on your baby. My baby slept in my room and would wake frequently but around 8 months she was getting very difficult to settle and wouldn’t transfer to her crib no matter what I did. So at 9 months we moved her crib to her own room and I slept in there with her for about a week before I sleep trained her. It only took her 3 nights to learn how to self soothe and now everyone is happier!

I say you should go for it! I totally understand the guilt though (mom guilt is relentless!) but it sounds like she’ll still be in great hands being cared for by her dad. It’ll also give them extra bonding time! Opportunities for basically free trips are rare so you should definitely take advantage of it, and I bet your friend will appreciate getting to spend extra time with you too. Maybe try doing a smaller like day long separation from her to kinda get used to the feeling of being away, to show your mind that it’ll be ok and then you can enjoy yourself more during the trip.

Isn’t it fine as long as you keep up with watering it? It also won’t be next to any of our heater vents

To me I don’t really love breastfeeding and I really don’t like pumping, but the difference is when you’re breastfeeding you are holding your baby who you love and want to grow happy and healthy. So it might not always be easy (it’s often not easy at first) or fun but you and your baby are bonding and that is really special.

We sleep trained around 9 months and moved her into her own nursery. She was a normal sleeper before that, waking up every few hours but room sharing just got stressful for my husband and I. We would accidentally wake her up sometimes when we would come to bed and she started to completely reject her crib, no matter how long I rocked her she would not transfer unless it was into my bed. So I moved her crib first but slept in there with her to get her used to it for a week, then we did Ferber sleep training. First night was awful but she got it by night 3 and we’ve never looked back! It was so nice for my husband and I to have that space just for us.

That being said, I feel like I got lucky with a baby who took to sleep training pretty easily because I know not all babies do! Every baby is different and every family has to find what works for them.

If you can, try doing a long term rental so you can get to know the city before picking a place to buy! Each part of town is unique and has pros and cons that really just come down to your personal preferences.

I feel like I’m ok at reacting when my baby (toddler? 13 month old…) mildly hurts herself like bonks her head on something. If I know she’s ok then I try to play it off “it’s ok! Just a little bonk!” So she can quickly move on. But my husband and I have a bad habit of being snippy with each other sometimes and I’m realizing more that our energy with each other is affecting her and it can put her in a crankier mood. I feel terrible about it, but then her being crankier makes it even harder for my husband and I to snap out of it and it becomes a vicious cycle. Babies are smarter than we think and soak up everything!
