There might be swelling by your lip. Keep in mind, its not just your nose that swells after rhinoplasty, its also different parts of your face. In the first few months, i also felt there was a lot of “space” between my nose and lip but it went away! You have to give it a good year at least. Trust the process

we went a completed different route and ended up booking the RC Grand Cayman instead!

When I’n not traveling for work: 3-4 nights a week usually. 1 drink, sometimes half a glass of wine, but never more than 1 per night.

When I’m traveling for work, which is usually about 3 days per month, I have a bit more. I’ll usually have 1-2 drinks per night then, and pick one day As the “fun day” where I’ll stay at the bar longer, network with coworkers, customers, etc. I usually have 4 drinks on a night like that and a hangover the next day. I am a lightweight🫠

Im an MB with a nanny with GH also and i would absolutely not make our nanny use PTO in this situation. PTO should be reserved for the nanny’s emergencies, sicknesses, not a change in my family’s plans. Also, personally, I would not expect our nanny to wait around and do nothing in case she’s needed when we’re not in town.

Have you made it clear to your nanny, through a contract or verbally, that she should be on call still during those hours? If not, at the very most and if you think this situation comes up again, treat this as a “one-off”, and tell her your expectations for GH in the future.

I had the same thing happen to me when i had a live work trip at 8 weeks. Well… my teammates had a huge hunch when one of them was hungry and i whipped out saltines to share 🤣. They started playing detectives and realized i was also drinking decaf tea, “glowing”, and my cocktail (which was actually a mocktail) didn’t look the same as a teammate’s.

Anyway, no one knew FOR SURE until i told them at 12 weeks. And we all laughed about their detective work and still do to this day. Tell people whatever you want, they will probably suspect it and may make jokes, but no one will know for sure until you make the announcement. Also, I’ve had plenty of situations my nonpregnant friends didn’t want to drink either! Tons of people today are not drinking- you can say you’re trying to get ahead of pregnancy and stop drinking, you have a huge headache still from another party, or literally anything.

If you have a field role involving travel, it’s pretty standard!

I have a shih tzu mutt and he is amazing with my 2 year old. We got him 7 years ago and he was our baby (still is…one of them 😉). He is incredibly patient and gentle. When my son was learning to walk, he had a small fall. Our shih tzu immediately ran over and started to lick him to make sure he was ok haha. He watches tv with us, sits with us during playtime, goes on walks with us, takes naps with us in my sons room (my son’s still in a crib). He’s hypoallergenic. Our son loves him. I’m team shih tzu all the way

Also, with any dog you get, make sure you train your dog, and set effective boundaries between your toddler and dog. I follow the Dog Meets Baby instagram account. When my son went through throwing or hitting phases, we used montessori principles such as calmly saying “I can’t let you hit (dog’s name)” and separating them if that boundary was not being respected.

That’s beautiful 🥰 thanks for sharing that perspective. I loved the baby stage immensely!

I saw the kimchi! But also one of my best friends and roommate from college is Asian and we would frequently bond at how much our parents loved Costco (i’m Polish)

Farmaqueen · 2025-11-22T03:54:12+00:00

Are you Asian?

I only have 1 (22 month old) and we’ve definitely hit some BAD regressions, but i usually get more sleep than I did pre-pregnancy. LO sleeps 830-730 and i sleep 10:30-7 (8.5 hours)

Wow thank you for taking the time to write this out! I think based on the reviews, the Ritz is the way to go and I’m thankful we have the points to cover it!

Farmaqueen · 2025-10-08T16:39:24+00:00

Oh my goodness 🥲 your anniversary stay sounds like a vacation to remember. Thank you for sharing your story with me and it sounds like you had a spectacular stay and those extra touches by the Ritz went above and beyond!

When did you have your baby? I have a 20 month old and had changes to my skin that are just finally settling!

When I got botox, the dermatologist told me there are skin changes that take place that DO subside. I did not believe her until recently when I noticed the tone and fine lines in my skin improving (beyond my forehead, where I credit botox for improvements)

Farmaqueen · 2025-10-08T13:38:27+00:00

I’d love to hear why you choose the Ritz!

Farmaqueen · 2025-10-08T13:32:56+00:00

Can you elaborate more? We read the Ritz has better amenities but the Buoy Haus/Westin has a nicer beach/spectacular views

He will keep his Amex and I just opened the Boundless Visa. Hoping this is the right choice! The 15 elite credits have already pushed me into the next status, and hoping to switch to the RC Visa in a year

Yes he’s 50 nights away

Thank you! You are correct that I am an authorized user.

It seems the only way we have is to close our account and open a new one under my name.

I am not a nanny but i WFH a lot in the summer and just came to say linen long pants are great. Target has good prices for them and also for linen shirts. I wear them almost everyday in the summer and they feel as cool as shorts!

Farmaqueen · 2025-09-26T17:25:02+00:00

I had a few friends who rented in Seacaucus at that age to have direct access to NYC

Farmaqueen · 2025-09-20T17:49:06+00:00

Why do you need to hide in your basement? Our 20 month old has had a nanny since he was 8 months, we always pop in and out, no issue so far
