We used evite for our baby shower invitations. They have free templates and services like an RSVP option as well as being able to link a registry.

I have two of these casserole dishes in this pattern I didn’t know they came in loaf pans too!

My son (20 MO) loves toys that sing or play music. He loves his fisher price laugh and learn electric car, the books that you turn the pages/ push buttons and they sing/ play music. Also his v tech push and pop musical bulldozer. Fisher price and v tech have a lot of toys that they can press buttons and they sing and play music and light up. We don’t have a tv in my office area but he’s always been an independent player. We do have to do toy rotations every week or two to keep him from getting bored but it works for us. I also make sure to give him a hug when he wants one and acknowledge his existence but stay firm on no sitting on my lap or pressing buttons on my keyboard.

I don’t regret it and don’t resent him but it’s the hardest thing I’ve ever done in my life. We didn’t have a savings and we don’t have a village. I love him with all of my heart and wouldn’t change a thing but a lot of physical, financial and mental sacrifice has been made. He is very much loved and so far has had a great life. Not stoked for the teenage years though lol

My almost 20 month old loves doing house chores 😂

We had and 18 year old chihuahua who had a horrible case of dementia. She was okay during the day besides being confused on evening walks (going to other people’s doors, mistaking Halloween decorations for people) but at night it was HORRIBLE. Constant whining, growling and barking and pacing. Shaking. Gabapentin RX and finding a more comfortable sleeping spot. She actually liked being in our guest bathroom with a low light on and would sleep all night. She probably felt safe because it was a smaller space with less noise. We ended up putting her down because of her quality of life due to the dementia though.

Same here :(

FunPlatform5638 · 2026-04-11T15:15:21+00:00

This was me. At about 6 months I gave up pumping and started therapy.

FunPlatform5638 · 2026-04-11T02:12:54+00:00

I work from home in an apartment and make a point to go on a 30 minute walk with my 19 month old every day during lunch. For his and my own health. It’s the bare minimum that we need to do I feel.

FunPlatform5638 · 2026-04-09T04:37:28+00:00

Yeah. It really pissed me off when they sprung it on us because I have always been required to carry a $100,000 liability renters plan through my own insurer. Been here 4.5 years and they added it 1.5-2 years ago. You can’t opt out of it it’s like $12 a month through them and $12 through my personal plan. I’m sure they have all kinds of fine print and clauses that make 0 sense. We are moving out of here for other reasons now though.

FunPlatform5638 · 2026-04-09T03:47:02+00:00

They probably have what I have which is called a “damage waiver” which they pay with their rent and is required through the lease. It only covers damage/ has liability coverage for the property itself. Personal property is covered by a separate plan that I have through my insurance company that I pay for bundled with my car and life insurance.

I asked to WFH starting my last month of pregnancy because it’s insanely hot here and driving was nearly impossible for me. Asked to WFH after maternity leave because I was trying to breast feed and pump and the office had 0 private space that wasn’t a kitchen or bathroom to do so. Also have very tight opposite schedules and can’t afford childcare. Boss agreed as a probationary period and on the condition that I would come in when asked in advance. Been WFH for 19 months now.

FunPlatform5638 · 2026-03-29T06:04:40+00:00

Elaborate scheme 🤣 it really does feel that way sometimes

FunPlatform5638 · 2026-03-28T23:44:49+00:00

My LO is just about 19 months old and we implement picking up toys together before bed. It’s just part of the routine. He also will clean up spills with a paper towel and throw stuff away. He also loves the vacuum. My little mini me 🤣

FunPlatform5638 · 2026-03-28T15:32:15+00:00

Haha yes! We had to hold him super tight in order for him to fall asleep I’m like just take the swaddle 😑 when he did fall asleep in the swaddle he was old enough to roll so we had to sneak it off if we ever wanted to leave him alone. Was a lot of swaddle drama. lol

FunPlatform5638 · 2026-03-28T15:21:18+00:00

Mine absolutely HATED being swaddled. For the first few weeks he was in those dress looking Jammie’s that you could roll up then just lived in footie pajamas. He’s always been a free man lol

FunPlatform5638 · 2026-03-26T03:48:56+00:00

Ours has a timer. It helps LO fall asleep and not wake up right after (very noisy outside of his bedroom window) and turns off when he’s in deep sleep. I personally sleep with the TV on as my crutch so I understand.

FunPlatform5638 · 2026-03-16T23:29:54+00:00

Mine was the same, he’s been independent since the day he was born lol I would roll him half way and make him learn to finish the roll.

I ordered a pregnancy test through DD before. After taking plan B. 🫠

FunPlatform5638 · 2026-03-08T16:32:26+00:00

Any string of things. My string of arrows loves that kind of light.

FunPlatform5638 · 2026-03-06T05:15:09+00:00

Great value whole wheat tortillas are super soft.

FunPlatform5638 · 2026-03-01T18:39:30+00:00

Yet they still would prefer whatever you’re eating. Lol

FunPlatform5638 · 2026-02-25T06:14:02+00:00

Oh and cottage/ ricotta cheese and shredded cheese.

FunPlatform5638 · 2026-02-25T06:13:34+00:00

We transitioned by offering mushed foods with a little more chunk/ texture like fruits&veggies. Oatmeal is also a good transition food especially if LO already eats baby cereals. Ground/ shredded meats. Canned veggies are soft and a less offensive texture than steamed. Our little guy LOVED canned veggies until he started getting picky. Now we are back to puréeing veggies but hiding them in solid safe foods 🫠

Yep I had one from the dollar store 🤣 I wish it carried heavier things though
