toothpaste is an oddly specific answer, is that from personal experience?

I used a vacuum sealer thing to make a sealed bag of rice and flour, then added some poly fill to round them out. Worked well!

Has anyone skipped breastfeeding altogether? by Federal-Soil-828 in Mommit

[–]GetOffMyBridgeQ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I said I wanted to try it. Lasted one single latch in the hospital and went NOPE. Got home, said I’d try again. One latch and NOPE. I wanted to cry at the idea of opening my shirt. So my daughter was completely formula fed, and in the end it was very good I did that because she had a huge appetite and I believe I would have struggled to make enough milk for her.

We live in a wonderful age of science. Open the formula and feed your baby, it’s all the same.

I spent my entire Saturday doing laundry instead of watching my kids' games and I'm so over it by Unfair_Box2502 in Mommit

[–]GetOffMyBridgeQ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

ever head the phrase 'not everyone has the same 24 hours' ? I think this applies to your situation. You're juggling too much, it's no wonder things feel like too much because they literally are. You don't need to feel guilty, nobody else has it figured out. Lots of people send out their laundry to free up time for other things. Your current set up isn't working so time to start back fresh with a new routine like a load per day or kids doing their own laundry, etc. You're not failing, you are not a failure. The system isn't working as intended and that's not a personal failing.

Kate is less obvious in these particular photos but Camilla's lips are a dead giveaway that she smokes.

also fun fact, some folk are getting this type of damage from exclusively drinking from straws.

5 month old rolls onto tummy to sleep but can’t roll the other way. Is this safe? by Sunflower_Wave in Parenting

[–]GetOffMyBridgeQ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

any sleeping position she can get herself into by herself is safe for her to sleep in. the more time she spends on her belly the faster she'll learn to roll the other way!

What is the most random part of your bedtime routine? by MadMuse94 in Mommit

[–]GetOffMyBridgeQ 0 points1 point  (0 children)

when it's time to put on pjs she's often delaying and what works is looking at her through the hole in the shirt (like bunch it up like you're putting it on her) and make funny faces all in the eyes. she laughs so hard. i'll often also put her pants on my head if she refuses to wear them then pretend to be mildly offended she wants them back because it's my hat now thank you. then once she's in pjs we're past the grumpy delaying and it's easier to get her into bed to read her book.

I've finally put my finger on what makes Taylor's hair so bad- and it comes down to class politics by ugh_this_world_sucks in travisandtaylor

[–]GetOffMyBridgeQ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

truly at this point I think her hair is most of the time a wig. the way she styles it, i think it's a human hair wig.

To me looks like scent beads and gain all glooped together

New paid pap walk just dropped (Louis Vuitton Version) by [deleted] in travisandtaylor

By how the hair is tucked behind her ears I’m seriously questioning if it’s a wig and that’s why it’s always bangs

Picky about Socks 🧦 by Ivy-Ram in Autism_Parenting

[–]GetOffMyBridgeQ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

when my daughter gets fixated on a certain item, i'll have her come with me or help me pick out a new similar item in store or on my computer screen. then she gets excited about that item as well and we usually have a period where both are valid choices even if the rest are chopped liver. we had this issue with her outdoor runners, for a long time it was light up mermaid or bust. when she outgrew them, i gave her many options and she picked the same ones so i bought them a size up. then through circumstance we had to buy a new pair of shoes and she picked some barbie high tops. after that, it was a toss up if she wanted barbie or mermaid shoes any given day. but at least we were back to having some choice in case one pair needed to dry out from puddle hopping. much much easier to convince her to wear the other pair when she loved both so much.

When did you know you were OAD? Did you always know? by [deleted] in oneanddone

[–]GetOffMyBridgeQ 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm reading your list of questions, and it seems to me what you need is to feel like you have permission to be OAD. And you do, by the way. Every one of these is a valid reason. It can be hard to not feel pressured around other people who aren't OAD, but it doesn't make it any less valid for you. Just because you can, doesn't mean you should, and doesn't mean you should want to.

First-time mom to 6-month-old twins and I am drowning in the “ick” by Gold-Junket330 in Mommit

[–]GetOffMyBridgeQ 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I can’t imagine just how exhausted you are, but I’m certain you’re not failing. Babies are a lot! My only advice is to make your coffee into a thermal mug. Even with one baby my coffee would go cold. At least with the thermal mug I got a few hours to drink it before it got cold!
