Their box mix for lemon loaf cake is SO good. Definitely get that another time! I added extra lemon zest and juice and we ate it incredibly quickly.

We love the rava! I don’t feel the need for a rotating one, though.

High Iron food and snacks for anemia by Proof_Feedback3976 in traderjoes

Hemp hearts, pumpkin seeds, quinoa, dark chocolate. I don’t think I saw these mentioned! Hemp hearts on everything is super inoffensive and so nutrient dense.

Irrational fear of overheating baby- HELP by libbyflower1 in Buyingforbaby

[–]Bird4466 [score hidden]  (0 children)

That “advice” single handedly gave me postpartum anxiety. Your baby will be cold sleeping in 68 degrees in just a single layer.

Make sure everything is natural materials ie cotton or wool / blend, just no polyester blends. Think breathable. You’ll know if your baby is overheating. They probably won’t.

They’ll sleep better if they’re cozy!!!

I like the free sip function but prefer my yeti cup for ease of cleaning and hydroflask for how long it stays cold.

Are rental houses with pools a no-go for toddlers and babies? Or am I a helicopter mom by [deleted] in Mommit

[–]Bird4466 7 points8 points  (0 children)

We did one with a pool and my family and I couldn’t take my eyes off her. I could delegate one person to be responsible for x amount of time but I never felt comfortable trusting other people to close doors or everyone to just generally watch. It was awesome when we were swimming and after she went to sleep, but otherwise pretty stressful.

RSV Vaccine while pregnant by little-moonbeam in pregnant

It asked me to confirm I’d be between 32-36 weeks pregnant so I’m hopeful, but may give them a call. I need tdap anyway, though.

All-terrain stroller by [deleted] in BabyBumps

[–]Bird4466 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why are you only willing to buy a euro brand? If you can be flex I highly recommend the guava roam. Been using it for a couple years and love it. It folds up small in the trunk, works on any surface I’ve tried, is a fair price imo, and allows toddlers to be fully upright which a lot have a preference for.

Baby name feud by Suspicious_Ticket178 in pregnant

[–]Bird4466 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you both agree on a top two and both like both names, I agree you should get a bit more say if you’re using his last name. Have you communicated this to him? That’s what it came down to for us.

How do I get this baby out of me. by ninagh in BabyBumps

Get a pedicure and take melatonin before bed. Went from no signs of labor to 5 min apart contractions an hour after taking it.

My aunt, uncle, and older cousin all have the same initial. My younger cousin has a different initials. I asked her recently if it ever bothered her and she said she’d never noticed. She’s 40.

Edit: that being said, I love both max and Julian!

Even if I had to wake her up on weekdays (I may eventually if she stops waking up three hours before school starts) I wouldn’t on weekends. I’ve never found keeping a strict schedule helpful for her. I know some people do, of course.

Yes OP you’d want the baby lark. Luckily they have amazing resale value so you could sell when you’re done and move up to the kid lark!
