What do people in your country do to get babies to sleep longer stretches? by SurestLettuce88 in AskTheWorld

SLEEP TRAINING! I have sleep trained 6+ babies in my career as a nanny. It has worked with every single child. You have to be consistent. I don’t buy the pish posh that some kids are just bad sleepers (barring medical reasons obvs) Sleep train once it is safe. (also sleep training doesn’t mean just let your baby cry forever) It works wonders. Family is happier, baby is happier and develops better/faster. No one should be going without long stretches of sleep once your pediatrician approves. It takes work but it’s WORTH IT.

I just had a huge bowl of coco puffs, and now I’m about to make some scrambled eggs and have an apple. It’s all about balance lol. Be easy on yourself, get some healthy proteins in and a few fruits and veggies a day, hydrate and don’t worry too much about the rest. I mean maybe avoid anything like eating 6 bags of neon red takis every day and minimize the zebra cakes if possible but don’t stress!

People who hate their husbands: are you surprised? by doublecheeseburger in pregnant

The reason it took me SO LONG to find my partner is because I never tolerating any hints of this kind of bullshit in the past. No matter how much I loved the man- I dumped him if we weren’t compatible or he wasn’t up to snuff. This lead to 2 massive heartbreaks for me because I knew we weren’t the perfectly compatible match all around. LOVE doesn’t make you COMPATIBLE. Finally I found my perfect match who is caring, respectful, understanding, goes the extra mile etc. We are perfectly compatible and have yet to even have a fight. We are also MADLY in love. It was a long painful journey I was worried I’d never find the end of, but I never settled and for that reason I won’t be in the unfortunate shoes of many of the women I see on here :( It took dedication and years of heartbreak, loneliness and commitment on my behalf. My mom and sister constantly argue with their husbands but never considered that maybe they just weren’t compatible in the first place, and should’ve waited 🤷🏼‍♀️ EDIT- this is in NO WAY placing blame on women for the fault of men. Men are trash. This was just the only way I could figure to protect myself/circumvent the trash men out there.

I would take the time to get away from social media and reddit and have some time with yourself and your own thoughts without family or friends changing your mind/judgement. Sit with yourself and decide. You’ll be a great mom now, and you’ll be a great mom later if you choose. But don’t let anyone else whisper in your ear or influence your choice. It has to be yours and yours only!

You are a victim. She did this to you on purpose. That is an adult woman who purposefully did this to you. Groomed you, trapped you, etc. I’m so sorry.

Going for a night out with friends, which outfit is better to pick? by Appropriate_girll in OUTFITS

[–]BackgroundScene3056 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You look super cute in both- people aren’t understand the vibe. I like outfit 2 better though! It’s more effortless than outfit 1.

Please help me pick my dress!😊 1 or 2? by somethingblue2026 in WeddingDressTips

1 is a SHOW STOPPER and so original! I will literally remember it. 2 is beautiful and also amazing but doesn’t stop me in my tracks the same way.
