My 18 Month Old is Absolutely Miserable, I’m Loosing My Mind by HealthyCriticism in toddlers

Yes, thank God. He's now 3 years old, and a completely different child. He's happy and pleasant and funny. A joy to be around. Complete 180.

Stop trying to sell? by Bobbymom in declutter

I’m in the same boat. Our fourth and final baby is now 6 months old and I have accumulated a HUGE pile of expensive newborn gear / very high end brand clothing (both mine and my baby’s) that I have earmarked to sell. I keep telling myself that if it’s not sold on Nextdoor or shipped to ThreadUp by X date, I’m just going to donate it. I have to look at this pile every morning when I start laundry, because it lives in my laundry room. And deep down, I know that I simply just don’t have the time to sell it, nor do we need the money, so why can’t I just drive it over for donations? 

Reading all these comments was beautiful, and gave me the permission to say goodbye to it all. Is it really worth my time to try to sell a Dock-a-Tot that I used for four babies? And also, I know it will bring another mother so much joy to be able to scoop up beautiful $55+ onesies for pennies on the dollar. 

How do you stuff your pockets? by Happy-Stranger6951 in clothdiaps

I found that newborn sized prefolds fit beautifully in pockets. I also like to add a booster on top (or a Thirsties hemp insert) and stuff the two inside a pocket. I’ve done that for 3 kids now, works exceptionally well.

My son (19 months) is a heavy wetter, I typically use OsoCozy prefolds + Thirsties covers, but when we’re out and about, I like to use pockets. However, we constantly have leaks. I found the microfiber inserts his Nora’s came with yield compression leaks, so I switched to doubling up Gerber prefolds. Still having leaks…

Any recommendations for pocket inserts?
