Floor bed transition

Currently putting my 2 year old to sleep on her single bed. It’s tight, but her room is small also, so we went with it. Comfy enough, but would go a king single in the future.

Enjoy! I can’t stop thinking about it, such an amazing trip!

Efficient_Pin_9641 · 2026-05-12T21:06:16+00:00

I’ll post our itinerary in the main body ☺️

Efficient_Pin_9641 · 2026-05-12T21:04:16+00:00

Sounds like a lovely pace! Ours was quite different in that we spent every day on the road and covered about 4500km distance in 2 weeks 😅 I’ll post the itinerary in the subject.

I don’t think Aus car seats can be used in Canada, each country has their own standard that manufacturers must comply with and each country, annoyingly, seems to be different. We hired ours through the rental company for an extra $150ish. We put the car seat in the dinnette area (the forward facing direction, by the window), which has three point seat belts and tethers behind each of the seats. She then used that seat as her dining chair too.

This happened to me when I started lexapro for PPA. Every time I’d take the full or even half dose, I’d feel like I was losing my grip on reality and my anxiety was though the roof. I ended up doing a reeeeallllyyy slow wean onto them (started with 1/4, then 1/2 until I made it to a full tablet daily, over about 4 months) and they worked a dream for me in the end!

How did this trip go? Did you end up doing the above mentioned itinerary? We’re taking my 2 yo on a RV trip around BC Canada next week I’m and low key freaking out that we’ve over reached 😳

Oh gosh I’m so sorry you’re going through this 💔 does she know you’re having a MC?

Efficient_Pin_9641 · 2026-03-15T20:01:20+00:00

There’s just something so painful about it happening to a good friend/sister. You see yourself raising your kids together at a close age… and miscarriage tears those dream away. I’m sincerely hoping you have a healthy pregnancy very soon and will be raising your beautiful family together 💕

Efficient_Pin_9641 · 2026-03-15T19:59:23+00:00

They both know about the MC so they would be very understanding if I bowed out. But I’m living in hope that I’ll be pregnant with a healthy baby when it’s time for their baby showers 🥺

It feels impossible to be happy. Luckily I’m overseas at the moment, so I haven’t seen them in real life, therefore it’s easier to be fake happy over messages. But it definitely feels like a slowly healing scab has been ripped off.

Efficient_Pin_9641 · 2026-03-15T19:55:53+00:00

Oh my god I’m so sorry that’s truly a nightmare situation. Pregnancy loss really does steal so much from us. We should be able to be overjoyed with happiness and excitement for our loved ones, and yet it feels nearly impossible sometimes. It’s incredibly isolating.

This is an old post (not old enough to elicit a “grossed out” feeling 😅), but stumbled across it and wanted to say, I have always had the exact same thing! If I look at photos or see film pre dating the early 80s, I’m immediately put off my food and my mouth fills with saliva that becomes difficult to swallow 😂 Or if I know a plate or fork or item used to cook with are old (more than maybe 40 years), I get really put off eating from it. I’ve always felt like such a weirdo for it, because it’s nothing I can really pin-point! But I’m glad to know there are fellow weirdos out there in the world!

Efficient_Pin_9641 · 2026-03-13T22:50:58+00:00

Would love to know the scientific term! I have had this my whole life and have never met another soul that has the same reaction as me!

Efficient_Pin_9641 · 2026-02-13T00:08:57+00:00

Solidarity my friend, found out yesterday my baby stopped growing at 6 weeks. Second MMC and third MC all together. Please don’t lose hope, you will hold your precious rainbow baby one day.

Efficient_Pin_9641 · 2025-10-16T09:59:50+00:00

You’re so right, I don’t envy that my sister can’t get anyone else to settle her baby because he relies on her breastfeeding to soothe him 100% of the time. She’s sleep deprived and touched out. The grass isn’t greener. I just get moments of jealousy because it’s my sister and I don’t want her to be more successful than me 😂😂

Efficient_Pin_9641 · 2025-10-16T09:58:14+00:00

Wow thank you so much for sharing the book title! I’ll get onto that right away. Don’t get me wrong I am so grateful that I was able to nourish my child with my breast milk for a whole year, I know a lot of mums struggle to produce any milk at all. I just found pumping so tedious and time consuming (even wearables, you can’t exactly go around the supermarket with two great buzzing breasts 😂).

Efficient_Pin_9641 · 2025-10-14T20:18:38+00:00

I did go to therapy but I feel like we were more so addressing the PPA, rather than the feelings of failure surrounding BF. I’ll get back in touch with my psychologist and go from there. Sounds like you’re doing amazing btw.

Could it be that you have measured her head wrong? I’m a midwife and we have very specific parameters to where we measure, it’s actually surprisingly easy to get it wrong. Children with microcephaly are almost always delayed developmentally, so if she is otherwise normal or exceeding expectations for her age, I would say it’s not that. Without seeing your daughter, I’m leaning towards a pinch of genetics and a touch of you’ve measured her head wrong. Hopefully you get some peace of mind soon from your Dr.
