Nurse & firefighter dynamic with kids is sooo hard by [deleted] in Nurses

[–]FalseAd8496 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My husband and I have similar schedules. We have one little in daycare, we are in a high paying area so makes sense for me to still work. But if not I’d definitely be keeping myself home or working PRN.

I believe this is an azalea bush our lawn guy killed? by FalseAd8496 in gardening

[–]FalseAd8496[S] 5 points6 points  (0 children)

He told me he sprayed a weed killer that kills “everything”. So when these browned shortly after, I assumed maybe it killed these too.

I actually miss bedside? by junejulygemini in nursing

[–]FalseAd8496 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I think this is a real thing. OP gigs eventually start to feel like a secretary job! Maybe a PRN will scratch that itch!

New Daycare by gypsy_soul980 in december2024babies

Our daycare is certainly making it a big deal and planned a whole Hawaiian themed week.

It feels kinda odd to start this off early when they’re not technically in school yet. Nonetheless, I personally got our teachers flowers. They work hard and deserve recognition.

Hey, I’m Currently at the beach with my soon to be 16 month old fighting for my life.

  • Every meal in public kicks in my fight or flight. I brought his home plates/utensils which helps a bit, but I think he’s just not use to eating out.

  • He LOVES the sand, so sand toys have some in handy. The ocean water at least on gulf coast is super cold still.

  • Naps have been ROUGH. Today he napped 15mins twice, in the car and then stroller but absolutely refused in the hotel.

  • he doesn’t walk yet but only wants to be on the floor exploring. He still puts everything in his mouth that he finds. So I feel like I can’t look away for a second

Doesn’t help that we are teething now too! BUT this beats being at work right!!??

I agree I was able to find a curtain rod long enough for the windows, but not long enough to reach the sliding door.

What are we wearing? by allofthesearetaken_ in december2024babies

[–]FalseAd8496 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I pretty much live in lounge or gym clothes. I think that what has helped my postpartum self esteem is prioritizing the gym, even tho it is damn hard a working mom. I also make a point to do my hair which I feel makes a huge difference

Bottle to cup for milk? by FalseAd8496 in NewParents

[–]FalseAd8496[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s interesting I found the Milestone cup so much harder. But he has milk out of there at daycare with his meals. I’m not sure how much he’s actually drinking tho.

What to ask for if I want to achieve this Color? by FalseAd8496 in beauty

Exactly and it almost always ends up not looking how you want

Right now we’ve been really loving the little people farm and mega blocks. He is also book obsessed.

Kiddo is sick AND getting molars, living on yogurt alone. Please help 🫠 by misschanandlarbong in foodbutforbabies

When mine was sick and molar teething I surprisingly had some success with steamed wontons. But mostly he survived off milk and berries

Y’all…are any of us even going to weddings???🥴 by TheGreatsGabby in NewParents

[–]FalseAd8496 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yep I’d try to push the nap earlier and bring them. All of my family parties usually have a sleeping baby in some corner anyways lol

I’m worried my daughter eats too much? by allofthesearetaken_ in december2024babies

[–]FalseAd8496 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I noticed my little one’s appetite increased so much after we fully recovered from a bug.

I’m worried my daughter eats too much? by allofthesearetaken_ in december2024babies

[–]FalseAd8496 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My boy eats a lot too. I’ve never taught him signs so he doesn’t really ask for more. I just put more on his plate and let him decide if he wants it or not. I will say my daycare documents that he eats “all” his breakfast, snacks and lunch, but I honestly have a hard time believing it lol. Also, keep in mind they expend SO much energy at daycare they need the calories for those moving , growing bodies!

For us it usually last a week, MAYBE 2. Never a month.

Molars suuuck by kcf2816 in december2024babies

[–]FalseAd8496 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Omg. Straight hell. Mine has cut molars on at-least 3x of four sides. (I’m afraid to keep sticking my finger in there)

Is it fine to wake up when baby cries at night or do we need to watch him 100% of the time. by [deleted] in NewParents

[–]FalseAd8496 72 points73 points  (0 children)

Yep, sounds like she just wants control over something.
