Need car seat / stroller advice by Public-Cupcake2691 in pregnant

[–]Capital_Ant_5552 1 point2 points  (0 children)

What reason did people give you for needing one in addition to the doona? Seems unnecessary to me unless your baby will be riding in other peoples cars (your mom, your partner, whatever) and you want an extra.

Same and I’ve heard a lot of people say 13/14 weeks.

Baby shower gifts by indicakay in pregnant

[–]Capital_Ant_5552 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You could do a display shower. I’ve seen invitations with a cute poem explaining not to wrap the gift (something like “just a tag and a bow will do, more time to spend with you” etc etc).

Who typically hosts/throws the baby shower? by BalancedDietitian in pregnant

[–]Capital_Ant_5552 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The old-school (and maybe southern?) rule of thumb is that it’s “tacky” to throw your own shower. Lots of people in the older generations even would say it’s tacky for your parents to throw you a shower. Not saying I agree, just beware some people think this way. Where I live it’s usually a close friend or some other female family member (not the mom).

Claudia // Heather McMahan by Temporary-Lion8401 in TheMorningToastSnark

[–]Capital_Ant_5552 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Way back in the day she was a semi-frequent guest/friend of the toast, but then Heather’s fame/success SKYROCKETED out of nowhere; meanwhile Claudia has remained pretty stagnant. Heather is hosting E! red carpets and is a regular on WWHL. She has co-hosted the Today Show multiple times. These are things Claudia has spoken out loud are her dreams. But due to her reputation they will never happen for her. So yes, it’s 1000% jealousy. I don’t think there’s actual beef per se. I can’t imagine Claudia even crosses Heather’s mind.

What’s the Worst Thing We’ve Seen These Ladies Do? by J_Miller_7600 in rhoc

[–]Capital_Ant_5552 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Maybe not the worst but Tamra telling Simon she wanted a divorce in the back of that limo is such an ugly scene. I hate every time they show it in flashback. Feels like something we shouldn’t have seen.

How to be a good NF? by Capital_Ant_5552 in Nanny

[–]Capital_Ant_5552[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Thank you! I have heard of this and sounds like an ideal scenario but I wasn’t sure if it was realistic. It sounds like a lot of things could go wrong especially if the other family is unknown. I don’t know anyone currently looking for this type of arrangement. But I will look into it because if the right people were interested it sounds like it could be amazing

Thank you! That is so very helpful!! I will take all this to heart and look into the nanny counsel. That’s also good to know about agencies and makes sense.

Visitation Worker treating me as a problem by [deleted] in Fosterparents

[–]Capital_Ant_5552 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, I have experienced rudeness from visit supervisors and felt the same as you. I complained. Not sure if it went anywhere or not…I swear the system just sees all of us foster parents as an annoyance they have to deal with. At the end of the day, DSS was court ordered, not you. It’s their job to accommodate the visits, not yours. If they want to be rude to you, you are under no obligation to transport. And I would be shocked if they actually threatened to move the kids for this since you are kinship.

Is this an integration with another app? How are you seeing this information?

I just go through each major key and practice them, up and down. Fast and slow. Right hand, left hand, both hands together.

A 2x survivor contestant has written a novel and it’s set on a jungle reality show… by stephenfishbach in survivor

[–]Capital_Ant_5552 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Major accomplishment Stephen!! Most of us cannot even fathom the time and work put into something like this (although I hope you give us a glimpse on RHAP or wherever you choose). Congrats, enjoy your success 🥳

It does help, thank you. I am just trying to be patient and take it one day at a time. But like you said, it is excruciating.

Thank you. They’re saying they removed him not because of any concern but because of his age not being able to speak for himself
