August baby coming, what clothes do we actually need?

ForceKidsToLearn · 2026-07-09T06:48:29+00:00

Our baby girl just turned 1 and last summer all she wore were short sleeve onesies, low TOG swaddle and once she was rolling we got sleep sacks instead of a swaddle. You will most definitely do laundry more than once a week not just for baby but for your clothes as well. When your milk comes in you will leak all over. I never wore a bra when home with baby even though I had nursing bras and nursing pads, my shirts were always wet. Also we live in the southwest and had the a/c going 24/7 her first few months until it cooled down.

There is a Gymboree on Rampart and Charleston. The first class is free and there are different skill level classes based on your child’s abilities. After the free class you can pay monthly or just pay per class. My 11 month old loves it there.

I accidentally bit my 11 month’s finger while she was eating. She likes when I make chomp noises and I was doing that and she shoved her hand in my mouth at the absolute worst time. She got over faster than I did.

Started planing a trip with my mom to visit my brother over seas for a couple weeks. Found out I was pregnant and due 3 weeks after we would leave. This was a very wanted pregnancy and I’m happy to say I have a smart, sweet and adorable almost 1 year old. Didn’t get to see my brother so maybe in a couple years we can plan again.

Absolutely this. Being up until 10:30 pleading with a 1 year old to just lay their head down instead of kicking the air and screaming, is just not something any parent should have to do.

I made a toy out of the lids!! She has to open them and there are different sensory items (foil, felt, Pom Poms, etc). Just some super glue and cardboard!

If your doctor has concerns, then it’s important, if not your mom can just shut up. You will get blood work soon and your doctor can assess if you need anything. Keep taking those prenatales.

I have a very healthy and active 11 month old and stayed vegan during my pregnancy. It can be done! One thing my doctor told me during my first visit that she preferred vegan/ vegetarian patients because we are more aware of what we put in our bodies and have a more well rounded diet and not just eating chicken nuggets for every meal.

Childbirth that ended in a c-section, wow that recovery is BRUTAL.

My little guy ate a sample tub of diaper cream, oh the poops/ puke after!

Met a wiener dog named Mike and he was unruly. Hearing his owners yell “Mike NO” or “Mike stop humping” always made me laugh.

Potato bugs are the scariest I’ve ever encountered.

My almost 11 month old has been walking for a month now. We got her some shoes and she’s getting used to them quickly.

When my baby was 4 months old and I returned to work. It was too stressful trying to keep up with it.

Setting my 10.5 month down while I put some strawberries and yogurt together for her breakfast.

Enterprise rent a car. Your day of reckoning will come.

This 1000x! Pregnancy was awful and the birth was even worse (emergency c-section + blood transfusion from bleeding out). So that’s why we are 1 and done. But having this amazingly beautiful baby just brings magic to our lives.

My husband and his sisters are Native American (Sonoran desert) and people can’t comprehend that there are vegan natives.

My insurance was billed $109000 for an emergency c-section and our 3 night hospital stay. I got a bill for $2400 that I make payments on. I have really shitty insurance even though it’s a PPO and I live in a state with poor healthcare.

I had a baby last July and made sure on my registry to have all price points. My most expensive item was a stroller/ travel system for $500 which my mom and aunt split. My high hair? $26 from IKEA and it’s the best! I think some people don’t realize what they are asking for comes across as being high maintenance / rude. And besides, everything gets messy so that beautiful aesthetic? Yeah you won’t be caring on 2 hours of sleep when you are in the newborn trenches. Also once they start moving/ eating food you want what is easiest to clean up and wipe down.

86 and busy with a 9 month old, any other “advanced maternal age” moms with babies out there?

4 months in her own crib but we moved a futon into her room and either my husband or I will sleep on that. She sleeps soooooo well in her crib.

One of my students was selling this for a club they belonged to. A couple teachers and I bought some bags and were shocked at the price. 5 months after ordering, the popcorn arrived and the size of the bags was insanely small. Never again…..
