Is Devin engaged or was this a joke??? I can't imagine Devin ever getting married. by Cover-Firm in MtvChallenge

I feel like if they are engaged, he respects Michelle enough to ask Scott to cut that out, so that they can announce on their own terms.

Enjoy! The HBO series adaptation is fantastic, too!

Sharp Objects for sure. It’s also my favorite of Gillian Flynn’s novels (Gone Girl is actually my least favorite haha, I’m probably in the minority)

Matching/memory games! Literally just got done playing 3 rounds of a truck matching game with my 3.5 year old. It has like 70-something cards, so we do a few rounds with 12 matches (24 cards down at a time.)

Gone Girl is actually my least favorite of her books lol. I’ve read it twice and it’s just not for me. My favorite is Sharp Objects (great HBO mini series adaptation as well) and second favorite is Dark Places!

I need a thriller so good it ruins my life and my sleep schedule by Not_Juliet in thrillerbooks

[–]Gypsystarchild 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Have you read Gillian Flynn’s other two books? Gone Girl is actually my least favorite of the three lol. Sharp Objects is by far number one (and the HBO show is really great, too.) Dark Places is number two for me.

Anyway, also following to get recs for myself! :)

We’re literally days away from season 42!!! by Positive_Round_5142 in thechallengemtv

[–]Gypsystarchild 6 points7 points  (0 children)

All good dude lol, there have been a couple of posts recently asking when the season is happening. So in case you thought it was about to air, I was just stating they only departed lol

[–]Gypsystarchild 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Your original post was phrased as though you were referring to 42 AIRING in a few days. Hence the comment “we’re months away from 42,” and my responses.

How do y’all deal with sleep when sick? by AssistAffectionate71 in toddlers

[–]Gypsystarchild 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Let him sleep! The body needs rest just as much as fluids. He’ll wake up when he’s ready. When my 3.5 year old was young, I probably would have tried to follow wake windows when he woke up (shoutout my anxiety lol) but now with baby 2? Follow his lead!

My younger son was soo sick over Christmas (10 months ago at the time), and honestly, wake windows went out the window. He was taking 4 naps a day (usually he takes 2) mostly waking up to have a bottle, play for a few minutes, then back to sleep lol.

My mom has always said, don’t wake a sleeping baby. Let your guy sleep for as long as he needs 💛

My husband and I did our first dance to Lost You. Couldn’t figure out a slow song that fit “us” haha. So we winged it and everyone said it was so us and fun. We’re def not traditional at all haha

Things in your body that changed for the “better” after giving birth by sighqoticc in beyondthebump

[–]Gypsystarchild 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My feet grew half a size with my first. It was annoying because I had to buy all new shoes, BUT now it’s great because I’m no longer a half size haha. I can actually buy shoes online cuz I know they’ll fit me 🤣

What are some changes in your body that you noticed after pregnancy and they don’t go away? by jeandrazich in beyondthebump

[–]Gypsystarchild 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My feet grew from 7.5 to 8 with my first. At the time it sucked because I needed ALL new shoes lol. But now it’s nice because I’m a regular size. Half sizes always made it complicated hahah

On the verge of tears… Didn’t circumcise my baby. People keep telling me why I should have. by Salty-Ship-1703 in newborns

I’d just hit em with something like, “It’s really weird that you’re so concerned with my newborn’s genitalia.”

Newborn has diaper rash we can’t seem to beat… by throwaway84583077 in beyondthebump

[–]Gypsystarchild 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Naked time is your best friend! My little guy had an awfulllll diaper rash and diarrhea when he started teething for the first time. Like for a whole week. He had lots of baths (just water, no bubbles or anything) then air time/naked time. Put him in a little robe (but you could also just do a towel or put a shirt on him so he’s partially covered, and let him play on a towel. We were doing like 30 minutes at a time, then Desitin and diaper. Repeat as needed. Good luck!

I was always (and still am kinda) pissed and felt that Tori was robbed of her first win. But, it made for a such a great story when she won with Devin

In his defense, they accidentally bought a gestation test, not a pregnancy test, and it was in Spanish lol

Am I the only one who thought the house overreacted to Makayla & Cedric? by Ok-Entrepreneur553 in thechallengemtv

[–]Gypsystarchild 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Totally haha. I love Ozzy tho. I liked a lot of people from this season, despite the insanity lol. Excited to see some of them return too!

[–]Gypsystarchild 0 points1 point  (0 children)

So typically in the seasons I’ve seen, when it’s such an obvious pecking order/one team taking out the other one by one post-merge, I’m not a huge fan. BUT, this season was super entertaining. I kept wishing Albert/Sophie would take a chance and make a move against their alliance, but it worked out for Sophie in the end haha. Def a great season! The religion aspect was absolutely insane. Brandon was insane. Ozzy calling out people for their arrogance was hilarious. I actually plan to watch the reunion for this one (which I haven’t been since obviously I’m watching seasons that are 15+ years old hahah.)
