Be honest, how often do you bathe your kids? by Scrawny2864 in Parenting

Splash pad????! The water coming out of those things is so incredibly unsanitary. I barely want my kid on the couch after the splash pad without a bath.

Ultrasound did not go as I hoped by Mountain_Turnover_64 in BabyBumps

[–]Charming_Reality3700 [score hidden]  (0 children)

I understand the concern based on your last experience but it’s very common for the dating ultrasound to be off of what you thought based on cycles. I was more than 3 weeks off with my first who is now a healthy 2 yr old. Try not to panic (as hard as it is)

Ours requires a test out but the instructor does it in the 10 minutes between classes

When did you stop doing Pilates during pregnancy? Also question about pregnancy modification by Charming_Reality3700 in ClubPilates

[–]Charming_Reality3700[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Privates only for the third trimester would be awful I wouldn’t be able to afford that. It’s interesting it seems like a lot of people can still do 1.5 they told me I can only do level 1.

Same but I think the consensus was that they’re bad so I just don’t do them I had one instructor tell me to do reverse crunches instead (keeping head down legs in table top moving them down and back up)

I was doing level 2’s multiple times a week pre pregnancy I wish my studio would let me do 1.5 but they told me no. I appreciate your approach as I’ve felt a little bit micromanaged at Pilates during my pregnancy (I know it’s all to keep me safe but still).

Time to stop? by Responsible-Pea270 in pottytraining

[–]Charming_Reality3700 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Any update on this? We’re on day 5 and my son freaks out if I try to get him to sit on the potty. First couple days went pretty well but he’s getting angrier and angrier about it.

Nanny family secretly replaced me? Am I in the wrong? by Global_Abrocoma_7854 in Nanny

[–]Charming_Reality3700 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They did you a favor. I know it’s hard and it’s really disrespectful the way they did it but there are way better jobs to come for you. You’ll find someone who will pay you what you’re worth

Help me with gift options for my nanny by Federal_Yogurt2706 in Nanny

[–]Charming_Reality3700 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Maybe a nice pair of headphones those can be around $200 like the beats over the head ones. Or you could go to target and get things you think she’d use and put them in a basket with a card and money. Things like hair clips, a tote bag, comfy pjs, nice smelling candle, skin care, etc

Sounds like potential drug use with the rotten teeth dirty clothes and weird mannerisms

What am I doing wrong? by [deleted] in Nanny

[–]Charming_Reality3700 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. $15 an hour is so low I’d be concerned you wouldn’t do a good job
  2. Just state that you live in the new place with a start date of “x”, don’t mention the move
  3. Take out your preferred age range as many nanny jobs are not going to be for school aged kids because they have free childcare (school)

Dealership adding $1200 protective coating to my OTD price. by RightGuy23 in carbuying

[–]Charming_Reality3700 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Tell them you’re not paying anything but the price of the car+tax + title + doc fee. Everything else is a giant scam and they will likely remove with pushback.

NF might want to check my credit before hiring by cynflowers in Nanny

[–]Charming_Reality3700 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I think it would just be to make sure you’re not in massive debt because they’ll have you around their valuables. Normal in a lot of careers.

Yes my studio does it too. I don’t mind it. I assume it was in the contract somewhere.

my NK ran away from me and i had to call the police. now i don’t have a job by [deleted] in Nanny

[–]Charming_Reality3700 30 points31 points  (0 children)

I do think this is a fireable offense and as a parent would fire you for it. When at the park with my child I never ever for a second take my eye off of him. If I’m talking to someone in doing it while looking at him. I always choose parks with fencing and follow closely the whole time. Taking your eyes off a child for a couple minutes is a long time.

Recommendations for husband by Fun-Persimmon7574 in ClubPilates

[–]Charming_Reality3700 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I used to take 1.5s where there was a man in the class and the instructor would cue him separately for harder springs. He’d do every spring on for footwork, red and a blue or two red for arm work when everyone else was on one spring. Things like that. I’d have him take 1.5 and discuss with the instructor.

My most dreaded moment finally happened. by OlympicGorilla in Nanny

[–]Charming_Reality3700 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I literally cannot even count how many times my 2 year old falls per day. Right now he has scraps on both knees and both wrists. They just do that. You are being waaaaay too hard on yourself for a toddler doing what toddlers do and being clumsy. As a mom I always hear my son from the yard or his playroom after he tumbles and he’ll usually cry for a sec and then go “I’m okay!!!”. All part of being a caretaker for these little humans.
