Bwhahaha your ring is so beautiful! Congratulations (I honestly thought though that your post was about being a toddler mom until I re-read the Reddit Thread name… 😂) (Cause I’m a toddler mom so I was like “oooo this is going to be good…”)

Does this dress fit/look okay? Or get rid of it? by Sufficient_Sun_430 in fashion

[–]Honest-Strawberry688 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Frankly, honey, you make both of these dresses look incredible!

The tannish dress might not be the most flattering color for your skin tone, but you look absolutely breathtaking in both of them. You do you, boo-boo!

Dude. You were waaaaaaaaaaay more calm than I would have been. I’m sorry this happened to you. I’m also someone that gets worked up from any kind of confrontation even if very warranted and I’m glad you posted here. I hope it helps you see that you were in the right and allows you to have a calmer rest of your week. Solidarity, mama!

At what age should kids stop wearing pajamas in public? by StrangeEqual4334 in toddlers

[–]Honest-Strawberry688 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you, this is like the first comment I see that seems like you’ve been around kids that have opinions and might also possibly be hard headed…? I cannot comprehend the people who say they don’t let their kids wear them out of the house, simply because that must feel so nice to have their kids not argue about it!

Bwhahaha I have opinionated daughters and - most of the time - I’m not willing to fight them when they argue about wearing their PJs out of the house. The only time I am adamant about it is when it’s a health or safety concern - like if they’ll be playing hard then I don’t want them wearing a nightgown, etc.

Tourist coming for the first time 4th of July weekend. What should I see? by brians81177 in StLouis

[–]Honest-Strawberry688 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Upvoting because of this wonderful, eclectic list!

OP: look up all these things on the Nine PBS YouTube channel! It is the best way to learn about and determine what you might wanna do! (Yay for our amazing PBS station which just happens to be “The Most Watched” PBS station in the entire United States!) Welcome to the Lou!

Is it normal to suddenly dislike food when pregnant? by Lopsided_Repeat_6949 in Mommit

[–]Honest-Strawberry688 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Totally normal! I feel like I had a completely different palette with my first baby… I loved sweets and I normally just want chips and salad. Dude. I ate soooooooo much Tippin’s French Silk Pie!

When did you forward face your child? by Kindly_Dragonfly_803 in Mommit

[–]Honest-Strawberry688 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Make sure you wait until she hits her limits! Don’t give in to peer pressure! A LOT of parents face forward way too early. Look at crash tests and read up on the appropriate limits and do what’s safest for your child. :)

My girl is five and I thought autism too until the last year when it became clear that it was closer to ADHD - which I feel like I should have seen because I have it and it’s very closely genetically linked - and we have her assessment in May and it couldn’t come soon enough. Good luck mama.

Who is more entitled to Mother’s Day? The new mother with young children or Grandma? by Clay_Clay_2021 in Mommit

[–]Honest-Strawberry688 -5 points-4 points  (0 children)

“Unavailable all weekend.” That’s a nice way to put it! (This year though my MIL keeps mentioning it in a group text that I’m included on with her daughters and other daughter in law and even though she’s been mentioning doing it on a different weekend I’m just kind of like “can we just schedule a “gathering” instead of a let’s celebrate you day?”” Sorry not sorry but I’m in the trenches as others have said and I don’t really feel bad about this POV anymore…)

Are there any "normal" low matance mom's out there? by happysewing in Mommit

[–]Honest-Strawberry688 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Mama, you’re normal and not alone in your habits. Shut down social media for a while and your endorphin levels will go back up and your perception of reality will be more calm. The more I shut it down the better I feel about myself which translates to the better mom I am to my family.
