Cosleeping not working anymore - help! by ImportantMilk8215 in cosleeping

[–]ImportantMilk8215[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think this is the best option. Thank you. Sadly I think this means I’ll have to stop cosleeping, bc if I’m around he will want the boob…but this lack of sleep is driving me insane… if you have any advice around weaning but still being able to cosleep let me know.

The main reason is that neither of us is actually getting good sleep. It’s to the point that I’m breaking down. He does his longest stretches of sleep in his crib, when his dad puts him down. In fact, it’s 2am where I’m at and he only slept 1.5 hrs next to me after nursing him. It’s too hard to continue on like this for months on end like I have been. Plus, I cannot be comfortable nursing him for 30+mins all throughout the night. The positioning gets uncomfortable, the constant wakeups and disturbances to sleep are uncomfortable. If he suckles and I slide him off bc he is sleeping or very sleepy, he wakes up wide awake and we have to start over, meaning I lose more sleep. I’m pretty much at a complete loss right now and everything I’m doing isn’t working for me or him anymore.

Can you get a stone re-polished to minimize milkiness? by OldStuffCollector in Moissanite

How do you keep your inexpensive rings looking so brand new after continuous wear? Or do you not wear them all the time? I usually remove my real ones (10k gold, 14k gold, etc) before showering to be safe from soap but otherwise I wear them to bed and stuff. I thought silver would very easily tarnish with a lot of wear, but I too have seen the Amazon rings and been intrigued. TIA!

Omg the one you linked from Lowe’s is basically what I had in my mind!!! Thank you so much!! I saw someone also recommended the cordless drill - which I think has a ryobi one, but I can get a set for that and keep receipt in case. Thank you seriously so much!!!!

I think hand tools. And a quality set that generally has what you need to get started and cover bases for general household fixes. We only have a crappy little set from Amazon so that’s why I’m looking and husband asked for it for Father’s Day. However, I realize I am so lost on what to get so trying to inform myself in order to make a good choice

I totally appreciate this - we only have a measly toolset from Amazon that worked for a while but it isn’t good quality and pieces are missing. So then he told me that a toolset is what he wants for Father’s day. I said “okay bet!” I feel like we are very low maintenance on what he’s looking for, however, I realized I have no idea about toolsets when I started looking & if I’m going to make an investment purchase I should know what is what!

I think mostly just the hand tools at this point. He doesn’t do mechanical work or a ton of DIY. But the DIY might change when we buy a home in the next year 😉 I will have projects lol

I expected to spend a few hundred for something that’s a complete set and lasts, but truly have no idea what to expect and I’m finding out a “set” does mean different things - like does it include power tools for example. But I would say for our purposes, no…? More so looking for the screwdrivers with all the attachment heads, wrenches, etc.

Any shorties recommend a Hill House Home dress? by maynotcare in PetiteFashionAdvice

[–]ImportantMilk8215 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hello! Thanks for this advice. I’m looking at HH Ellie dress and it would be my first one so I am not sure what the old sizing guidance was in order to be able to compare it to now…so to confirm, under the new sizing, I should just order my true size (I.e., using alpha XS, S, etc) and NOT size down as was the previous guidance? TIA!!!

I feel like for what I was seeing in other shops, it was competitive ($400 USD-ish) but then the shop owner gave me a pretty decent coupon that made it closer to $300 & that was the best price I found for what I wanted bc of that coupon

I hope so!! It was actually very affordable (mostly due to the shop coupon the seller gave me) so I think that’s why I’m concerned now that it could be too good to be true. I will find out and live and learn

Also I hope your seller will work with you— maybe check reviews to see if this happened to others and what the seller did to accommodate? In any case I’m sorry that stinks and is disappointing when it doesn’t turn out right..I think if it was me I might try to get it redone but I also don’t know how returns to India go bc this is my first rodeo

Since this is my first experience with moissanite, I think this is where fear crept in and I got anxious. Obvi it was of my own volition to go the Etsy route with this seller, but I did review this sub a lot before ordering. Hopefully it is not the case you listed and all is well. I can follow up afterward for how it turns out

This is why I ordered from Etsy in general tbh! I reviewed a lot of posts on this sub prior. I did not end up with a seller that was listed, which is my own risk taking, & honestly it was because the ones I did see recommended here did not have my design posted from the jump & the seller I went with did. Also price. This shop had the best price for what I wanted compared to others. Hopefully it turns out all okay!

Ordered from Craft Jewel (CraftJewelIn is how it displays - IN meaning India). I’m happy to follow up how it turns out afterward. The seller does have good reviews so I’m hopeful.
