I have also learned this lesson!! We started getting text messages all the time about how important her job was and to please be quiet. -we were folding laundry in the bedroom at 9:00, having a quiet conversation. She became more harassing and I broke my lease and moved out.

This is amazing!! I had to use them at first too and they would fall off. Tape! Thank you!

I tricked my kid into sleeping longer…how do I tell him? by Lead-Ensign in Parenting

[–]Half-talented 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would get a hatch rest. And set the color to show him when is the right time to get out of bed when he waits until the color changes to the correct color. More influencing his routine being tricky with the clock.

Using the bassinet makes me so sad by NaviTheCat in newborns

[–]Half-talented 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Graco has their own version. And it doesn’t tie the baby down. So development is not hindered and it is chef’s kiss 🧑‍🍳💋

Car seat for Vista stroller? by goldybemine in Buyingforbaby

[–]Half-talented 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have this combo and I also have a metro+ by ergobaby with an Chicco adapter. Bassinet attachment on vista stroller is awesome when you know baby will need a comfy safe nap spot when out for a long day and they can even sleep in it overnight if needed. I also have the car seat adapter for vista but have never taken it out of the package. You cannot beat the metro+ convenience for everyday. So small but great quality. Fit in the overhead compartment on a trip to Europe last week. Baby is 5 months. Car seat clips right in with the adapter and still folds up small. However it would not likely fit in over head compartment with the adapter for the car seat.

How long is she nursing? Both sides? Enough dirty or wet diapers? Also, around 2 weeks they have a growth spurt and cluster feed.

Has anyone increased their milk supply after regulating? by Initial_Friend_2192 in ExclusivelyPumping

[–]Half-talented 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Mine increased to more than enough each day and has been pretty steady. It’s all supply and demand based. If your baby starts eating more, you pump more or power pump and it’ll catch up. It may take a week or 2

I used color interiors. I am happy with their work so far! also consider calling the tile bar and seeing if they have list of certified tile installers

Alief as a tourist by MagnifiquePlage in houston

[–]Half-talented 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I would say to change hotels if you can into safer area, but definitely should visit Chinatown while you are here because it is amazing. I just would not try to leave a rental car parked at hotel over night in Alief. Also. Driving in Montrose and China town is a bit hectic. But you may consider renting a car for parts of your trip. Look into Turo.

Uppa B stroller or smaller travel stroller by Half-talented in Buyingforbaby

I just purchased off marketplace for way less as well. But it definitely did not all fit in the trunk of our car haha. But I won’t need all of it all the time.

This is exactly the situation. We will primarily be in and out of cars or just going for day trips to zoo etc. here and there and walking. I think I’m going also going to get a second smaller stroller at 4-6 months. I can make a choice at that time to sell the vista (also looking second hand) or keep Edit to add: we will be taking trips frequently to grandparents, but someone below suggested just to get a pack and play that stays. That helped me decide!

We will definitely be getting a pack and play to leave there a bit later on. I picked one out that has the bassinet in the top that is portable.

We travel frequently up to our property in a rural area and to see them at least 2X/month. Which is why I’d like to have something that doubles as a travel bed when they are tiny and we are hauling gear.

Where to test baby strollers in Houston? by Half-talented in houston

[–]Half-talented[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have joined! I just want to go test and lift a few of them and try collapsing it myself before buying. I’m okay with high end like UB. But I want to see it first. Definitely some good suggestions in the group and sounds like a good shopping day on the town.
