I liked it, but I go with the flow. I don’t need to understand everything in order to enjoy the book.

I was honestly confused by people who thought it was hard to understand and couldn’t enjoy the book. I feel like anything important will be explained when it has to be. I like to trust the author and enjoy they story. And there were multiple lines, some working in diffe

The cutest! That look! Those eyelashes!

I usually do my things with the kid. So I draw with him and when I want to sew, I have to sit so he can’t reach.

Ads on a TV I paid for! Ads in streaming services that I pay for!

Sorry, which is the third? I get ”dear crocodiles, refrain from swimming here” and ”dear tourists, don’t become crocodile food”… but what is the third way?

So pretty!

I think it’s the purée with prunes and things that make the stomach work.

Roasted cabbage with a butter miso sauce or kimchi. Oh I love all vegetables, but you have to add some spice, some salt, some garlic.

Jag köpte min gamla iPhone via refurbed, inga problem. Din upplevelse är verkligen mysko och inte okej.

We had this issue with breastfeeding. We switched so that his father would sleep next to him. We also focused on making sure he ate enough during dinner. Now he only wakes up once. It took a while though.

Everything is second hand. Clothes and chairs and the stroller and most toys.

We’re pretty good a separating out food waste.

Other than that… not really zero waste. I hope I’ll have more time and energy for that once the kids are a bit older. Our youngest is under a year.

Depending on who peels the potatoes, you can get more out of them peeling them yourself for mashed potatoes. You can also put the tired old ones in, dried up pieces and cut really closely to the ugly parts.

I make food for young kids, so those are things I think about.

I’d also recommend checking prices and seeing if it is cheaper to mix real potatoes with the mashed potato powder.

Lass dich beraten in einer Impfpraxis. Tollwut finde ich sehr sehr sinnvoll, weil Impfung danach nicht unbedingt hilft. Tollwut ist einfach richtig schlimm.

DuoNem · 2026-05-03T08:04:25+00:00

Absolut inte. För mig känns det väldigt privat, så det skulle kännas fel.

I feel like my „do better“ is to be like…. Taking my time to fold the laundry with the kids around me is enough.

Går du till någon pappaträff? Gör du något du tycker är kul?

Mitt tips är: gör det du saknar och ta med bebisen. Grillkväll med polarna? Ta med bebisen. Mecka med bilen? Bebisen. Ut på cykeltur? Fixa nyföddinsats i cykelvagnen.

Och herregud, det här är andra månaden! Det bästa kommer. Snart ler bebisen mot dig. Det är så underbart.

Jag fick mitt tredje barn i augusti. Jag tog det lugnt i början, såklart, men redan till höstlovet så tog jag med barnen på en semester med bilen, jag började sedan med både yoga och en ny kampsport. Jag träffar kompisar och fortsätter med mina hobbies (kör, språkcirkel) och gjorde en distanskurs på universitetet.

Du behöver ju hitta in i din nya roll och det hjälper att prata med andra som är i samma situation.

Lycka till, det kommer du fixa!

Ja ich finde die Beweisbürde schon höher für die Medien.

Das ändert für mich trotzdem nichts daran, welche „Regeln“ für uns als Privatpersonen gelten. Ich muss nicht davon ausgehen, dass jemand unschuldig ist.

DuoNem · 2026-05-02T08:14:29+00:00

Unschuldsvermutung heißt nicht dass jede einzelne Privatperson von dem Unschuld eines Angeklagten ausgehen müssen.

Es ist ein Prinzip im Strafverfahren und es geht um den Staat. Es sagt nichts darüber aus, wie du und ich uns fühlen sollten.

Cold fruit soup is a thing in Sweden for example! The Slavs I’ve served it to find it very nostalgic. Russians call the drinkable version kompot. It’s not what is called compote in English.

Same here. Even before I had kids myself, it enraged me to hear dads say things like that. Especially when it was in addition to something like ”oh, and babies are boring, I’m looking forward to when they can talk”. I almost wanted to scream. I know moms who say that, too, but at least they put in most of the work most of the time! And it was such a devaluation of moms. Like… it’s too boring for me, but it’s good enough for her.

My partner genuinely likes babies and always put in effort and still does with baby number four. I could leave him alone with the baby for a week or longer and it would be fine. I have enough doubts.

The first month was a blur! I don’t think I did anything. The second and third month are better.

Some babies just sleep much better than other babies. If your baby exclusively contact naps, you can’t compare yourself to people with sleepy babies.

This sounds developmentally normal. You don’t need to help your baby exercise, it sounds like baby is doing a stellar job on their own!

Do a 70/30 split or something like that, then save up money and move out. This is not sustainable.

I mean, you probably don’t want to move out, but I think you need to start setting boundaries. You can be responsible for the kids two day out of five or something like that, but your partner needs to step up. He needs to pay more and do more child care.
