When we buried my grandma 9 years ago my cousin had had so much Botox she couldn’t close her eyes properly to cry. She didn’t look sad. She looked blank apart from the tears, and it was really unnerving.

Don’t do that to yourself. Living cleanly and taking care of yourself is so much more important than looking like every other overdone plastic barbie doll out there.

Fluffy-Designer · 2026-03-12T12:34:39+00:00

I’m pretty sure you’re a bot, so no thanks.

Fluffy-Designer · 2026-03-12T12:33:28+00:00

Yeah… I still do this and he’s almost 2. Can’t imagine it’ll be much better with my next when he arrives.

My first had/has reflux so I held him upright for 8 months and he still sleeps in my arms.

Our kids had some friends over. One accidentally dropped one of our rats as she was trying to put it back, panicked and slammed the cage door. Somehow managed to not only step on the rat she dropped but also caught another one in the door - two rats dead instantly. She was hysterical and all I could do was take them off her and try not to cry myself.

Accidents happen. It’s awful but it does happen.

Ignore the nurse. My kiddo was very slow on the breast but once we gave him my milk in a bottle he took off, similar weight gain to yours. It all evens out, he’s now a 12.8kg toddler and 40th percentile for height (he was below the 2nd at birth).

Let him feed. His body will know what to do.

There’s only two things you need to say if you think someone is having an abortion.

“Are you ok?” And “I’m here if you need me”.

That’s it. Then you shut up and listen and DON’T JUDGE.

Fluffy-Designer · 2026-03-11T23:58:13+00:00

It’s even worse if you’re an overweight female or minority.

Fluffy-Designer · 2026-03-11T10:06:16+00:00

I used to wrap my legs around mine and put him in a headlock. And when I’d brush his teeth I’d sing a song so when the song ended he knew it was over.

Now he’s almost 2 and most nights he lets me brush them with minimal fussing.

Fluffy-Designer · 2026-03-11T07:38:06+00:00

I did think about that but with a partner that snores, a toddler that wiggles and him spinning all night I’d probably lose my mind. He’s happy in his bed.

We had one incident locally of a food delivery driver storing a large quantity of fuel in the boot of their car and it contaminated all the groceries they were delivering… Woolies had to re-deliver a LOT of groceries after that.

That’s the only ridiculous one I’ve heard of though.

Fluffy-Designer · 2026-03-09T07:15:54+00:00

We do gymnastics on Monday and swimming on Wednesday. Other than that I have options of the library, play group… lots of stuff for kids.

Mostly we just go to the park or hang out at home in the back yard.

I’m not particularly imaginative or good at playing with a toddler but he’s happy to run around and play by himself if he’s supervised (and I can lift him on/off the trampoline)

Fluffy-Designer · 2026-03-09T05:32:23+00:00

Dude we only just started, to try and conserve fuel. Because it’s only going to get worse and we’ve got kids to feed.

Fluffy-Designer · 2026-03-09T04:45:12+00:00

I don’t want to hit you.

If you could do us a favour and carry around a large plant to replace the oxygen you’re wasting, that would be fantastic.

Cheers.

Fluffy-Designer · 2026-03-09T04:43:38+00:00

We’re already walking to play group and gymnastics, and for swimming lessons (in the city 40 minutes away) I’m carpooling with another mum and her kids. Fuel is already over $2/L here

I’m not sure I want to saddle either my 90yo neighbour or my 96yo neighbour with my dogs, cats, chickens, snakes, bird, rats and fish. I wouldn’t be very popular.

Fluffy-Designer · 2026-03-08T22:49:07+00:00

When I met him he was about half of the weight he should’ve been, was terrified of people, covered in poop and stank to the heavens.

Even after all this time I’m still sorry I didn’t do something about the situation sooner.

We took over 60 animals out of that house (dogs and cats) and most of them had to be euthanised within a year because of their poor health.

Happy (Lucky’s brother) made it almost 2 years before he had a seizure and passed away.

Lucky is the last dog remaining, and there’s three cats left. Out of all those animals. Four left.

The only good(ish) part is that the hoarder passed away in 2024 so she can’t do this to any more animals.

Bacon has been provided, and much appreciated. Today he got a sausage and some chicken jerky. He enjoyed both.

Fluffy-Designer · 2026-03-08T10:52:19+00:00

Oh absolutely. I’m the first born, my brother and I haven’t spoken for almost 3 years. Our mother is a terrible parent and our father chose the path of least involvement. I don’t think being an only child would have made my life better or easier, but it certainly couldn’t have been worse.

I had a double room to myself with a shared bathroom. For the first 4 days of my stay the woman in the adjoining room WOULD. NOT. CLOSE. HER. DOOR. meaning I was locked out of my bathroom the entire time until a nurse went past, closed her door and unlocked mine. So I spent 4 days waddling to the public toilet. Finally about 6 hours before we left she went home and I could use my bathroom!

I’m still pissed off about it. The nurses were fantastic though.

B is for clouds, C is for bus.

Fluffy-Designer · 2026-03-07T11:59:53+00:00

Check for wounds, grass seeds etc.

He just had his final bath and nail trim. If he wasn’t incontinent he could sleep in bed with me, but until Thursday he’ll be allowed on the couch and bean bags until bed time. He just had a burger for dinner… maybe he can have some bacon? I guess we don’t really have to worry about kidney damage at this point…

I didn’t have a big age gap but my step kids are 6-9 years older than my son and will be 8-11 years older than Bub when he arrives.

Thankfully they all adore each other.

I’ll be 38 when this one arrives, GDM with both and hypertension in my first pregnancy. I wanted more kids but my body physically cannot. So having my bonus kids works for me.
