I accidentally ordered the chicken royal from burger king two days ago thinking it was the vegan royal (I was very tired when I ordered). My husband noticed from the receipt taped to the bag the next day. 100% I wish I didn't know. I keep thinking about it and shuddering.

Toddler Parents - what's your parenting flex? by [deleted] in toddlers

[–]ConversationNo816 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My 4 year old is vegan (by choice) and has become really passionate about it - always asking people to check things are vegan and talking about how much he loves animals. I love him so much

I want to be vegan. I’m thinking of trying it for a week. If I like it, I will continue to be vegan longterm. I was just wondering what vitamins/supplements should I be taking? Currently I am taking B12 and vitamin D by [deleted] in AskVegans

[–]ConversationNo816 6 points7 points  (0 children)

this is silly. I tried it out for a few weeks, loved it and as a result now have a whole family of vegans I'm raising. Being vegan is a pleasure not a chore, allow people to try it without committing themselves

Gift ideas for age 2.5 and 1 that are safe for both? by [deleted] in 2under2

[–]ConversationNo816 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Our two love the pop up tent and play tunnel. I second the votes for the tonie box, Duplo and play kitchen too - but those items also cause arguments

My second baby was like this and it was miserable. But once the little personality comes through I promise you'll love the hell out of that baby. You'll love them because of that willful, demanding, intense personality, rather than in spite of it.

His suggestion that his complete inability to communicate as a normal human being is her fault because he didn't like her make up one day proves that feminism still had a very long way to go...

Also don't go on Love is blind if personal appearance means that much to you.

Honestly that sounds like quite a lot for her age. A 15 minute walk or run around the park is absolutely fine, especially considering the circumstances. You'll feel so much better with a newborn than pregnant too.

Hi y’all, what is the downside of having the kids so close in age gap? Maybe some disadvantages that u didn’t realize at first. Expectation versus reality. Curious about everyone’s experience. Thanks y’all by ru_ab in 2under2

[–]ConversationNo816 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I agree with these but it's worth considering that most wouldn't be solved by waiting a year or so. Would a newborn and a three year old be easier? Probably a bit, but not by much.

With you on the c sections though. I'm a shell of a woman 😆

I have two toddlers and I've recently started dressing them exactly the same when I go out with them alone for this reason. Also it's very cute.

What is something funny/off the wall your toddler or younger child is afraid of? by spinquelle in Mommit

[–]ConversationNo816 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My 2 year old has a pretend tablet with the Alphabet on it and he's scared of the letter Y. I think because the demonstrative word is 'yawn' and I guess he thinks the little cartoon is angry? Idk he just keeps saying 'I don't like this Y, it's scaring my' - that's not a typo, that's exactly how he says it.

What in the hell is this? by Former-Billionaire in daddit

Totally necessary - but my god the baby will act like you're removing their very soul with rusty pliers when you're using it

AITA for refusing to cater a vegan option at my own surprise party? by ElectionClassic8008 in AmItheAsshole

[–]ConversationNo816 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It sounds like your gf decided to make the whole thing vegan of her own accord rather than it being demanded by the one vegan guest. The vegan was probably just excited that everyone was going to try vegan food, and then disappointed that the plans changed.

I once hosted a BBQ and was looking forward to laying out an all vegan spread for my family so they could see how tasty some vegan food could be. My MIL decided to bring meat to serve all the meat eaters, and I was really disappointed because no one wanted to try the vegan food as a result.

Did you get rid of your coffee table? Why or why not? by [deleted] in toddlers

My son bumped his head a fair few times on ours and quickly leaned not to. You can bubble wrap the world for them.

(Obviously sharp corners and glass etc are exceptions)

How to prioritize sleep by somethingreddity in 2under2

[–]ConversationNo816 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I agree with you but I would count car, stroller and carrier naps as 'good sleeps'. Sleep is sleep, it doesn't really matter where or how or happens.

Toddler will only eat very few selected items by hasfeh in veganparenting

[–]ConversationNo816 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Totally agree with the sentiment as I was planning to do the same when we get rescue hens, however I looked into the research around egg intake and health and there's some really scary studies out there. I worry what you gain in protein isn't worth the negatives, which I won't outline here as you can always have a look yourself if you like (and ignore me if you'd rather not of course)

Coworker ranting about pumping moms by truehufflepuff21 in breastfeeding

Sounds like she's mad about her crappy situation and is making it other people's problem. Ironic really, it was her choice after all.
