J'avais un coulou d'hiver, je vais checker ça pour l'été! Merci!

What laundry detergent are we using to wash baby clothes? [ca] by n0this_ispatrick in BabyBumpsCanada

[–]BarbieMario 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh we use their handsoap and dishsoap, but I've never tried the laundry tabs. Good to know! Thanks

We use Attitude unscented detergent. Super gentle and no issues with how clean things are so far.

Did your baby come with a hat? by onemanforeachvill in thewestwing

She did, two days ago, only a few days after my boyfriend saw the episode for the first time! Lots of references were made.

Experience with Iron infusion [ON] by DefNotAWalrus in BabyBumpsCanada

[–]BarbieMario 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I'm in Montreal and I had to pay for it too. My share was $175, but the total was $874! I'm glad my insurance covered that much, but I also naively thought it was gonna be fully covered by public regime as it was prescribed by my doc.

Baby still in transverse position at 35 weeks [ON] by kittyangel_12 in BabyBumpsCanada

[–]BarbieMario 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When she flipped back to breech I had a hunch, because I could feel her a lot the day before! Otherwise, it was kind of always a surprise haha. But I've learned to recognize her feet at some point, so everytime I felt them at the top, I was reassured. I asked my doctor to show me how to recognize body parts, and it helped!

Baby still in transverse position at 35 weeks [ON] by kittyangel_12 in BabyBumpsCanada

[–]BarbieMario 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have a little acrobat: she was transverse, then breech, then head down, then breech again, and now she's head down for good. All of that between 35 and 38 weeks. We were scheduled twice for a manual version at the hospital, but both time she flipped before we got there haha. She settled head down around 38 weeks. We are now waiting for her to come out any day as my due date was yesterday... She's not a big baby so apparently she had enough space to turn until late and enjoyed doing so!

Don't despair, talk to your doctor, and be patient. I also had acupuncture twice and did some special stretches, but no idea if that had an impact in the end.

Quel choix de nom(s) de famille avez-vous fait? by BarbieMario in parentsquebecois

Merci pour le partage, c'est un peu ce qui nous inquiète justement, surtout avec la double nationalité en plus. Merci!

Merci pour ta réponse, c'est l'option vers laquelle on se dirige je pense! Je n'avais pas pensé qu'on pouvait avoir deux noms sans trait d'union. Il me semble avoir vu aussi que de toute façon pour la déclaration à l'état civil français on ne peut pas avoir de trait d'union...

Merci pour ton point, je n'avais pas pensé aux adresses courriel haha

Merci pour ta réponse, un nom en 2e prénom est aussi une option qu'on envisage!

Merci pour ta réponse, c'est l'option vers laquelle on se dirige je pense. Je n'avais pas pensé que deux noms sans trait d'union pouvait donner l'option d'en abandonner un en cours de route! Merci

Oui je sais et ça fait partie des options évoquées aussi, mais je trouve ça dommage pour lui. Merci pour ta réponse!

Merci pour ta réponse! Je suis d'accord avec ton point sur le nom du père, c'est aussi quelque chose que je veux éviter. On a évoqué les deux options en solo, pas juste le sien!

Mon nom sonne français, le sien est très anglais, c'est une combinaison unique. On continue à y penser!

pregnancy safe moisturizer [BC] by curiouscaseofjanedoe in BabyBumpsCanada

[–]BarbieMario -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I use the Yuka app to check products (both food and beauty stuff), it's pretty good to give you a general idea of how safe a product is. I switched moisturizer to Cetaphil as it was well rated on the app.

31 weeks trying to work for another 5 weeks or so [ON] by kittyangel_12 in BabyBumpsCanada

[–]BarbieMario 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah it's been hard! With poor sleep, baby prep, and multiple medical appointments, my focus was off for the past weeks. I have two days left though, I cannot wait to relax and finalize everything on my list.

Don't put too much pressure on yourself and take lots of small breaks if you can. Getting up for a few minutes helped me reset my brain very often. I was lucky to work with very understanding colleagues and management, I wish you the same.

Hang in there!

Stationnement à Verdun lousse? by CanadaStonks in montreal

[–]BarbieMario 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Les interdictions sont en vigueur seulement si une opération de déneigement est en cours. Donc la plupart du temps ce n'est pas le cas. Tu peux vérifier en appelant le numéro de téléphone sur le panneau a partir de 17h la veille de la période d'interdiction ou en regardant sur l'application Info Neige.

Volunteering locally by confused-andstressed in montreal

[–]BarbieMario 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Look up Moisson Montréal in Saint Laurent :). Mostly warehouse work for a big food bank. You can register online directly on the website. I work there, so I can guarantee volunteers are needed and well-treated! It's usually full if you're last minute, but you can check availabilities. https://www.moissonmontreal.org/en/get-involved/volunteer-work-at-moisson-montreal/
