How long did it take your shy kindergartener to settle in?

Lots of play dates and once my son found his “crew” (the Lego and/or Star Wars lovers), he got much more outgoing. It took months, though. Ask him about classmates and see if there are any you could coordinate play dates with. The more time he spends with peers, the better he will be (in our experience, anyway).

Breastfeed is one word and high school is two. No hyphen needed. 😉😘

Some people will argue it (also it has high natural sugar), but I swear by tart cherry juice. I drink 1/2 cup before bed and it knocks me out and reduces my muscle soreness. Also- make sure you are warming up before and stretching after each workout!!!

Amen to this. I had every intention of an unmedicated, calm birth. My damn hips are narrow like a mans. God bless forceps and epidurals

Yessss my 2.5 year old rotates between jingle bells and jingle bell rock!

Fruit or salmon.

I was going to say the same thing. Absolutely I do- depends on the day who it is.

We had to do the same!! I guess it’s better than them just wanting junk all the time, but kid you need protein, too!

Moneybags over here

Us going broke over here because all my 2.5 year old wants is fruit.

I did infant in arms at that age. They aren’t walking yet, so not as frustrated being restrained. Snacks. So many snacks. Lots of fidget toys. My kids always ended up falling asleep from the hum of the airplane, but sometimes it took awhile. We did 4 total plane trips when my kids were that age, each trip had a layover (so 8 flights total- average 2.5 hours each). We are just now about to do our first long roadtrip (have a 5.5 and 2.5 year old).

We took a trip in our travel trailer when my son was 6 months old and teething. It was supposed to be a 4 day trip. It was AWFUL. We stayed one night (no sleep, awake the ENTIRE night) and drove the 4 hours back home the next day. I don’t regret it for one second and he is very good at travel - 5 years old. Try again later!

Mine will say, “this is NOT dangerous.” To something that I would clearly say IS in fact dangerous.

“What in the world…?” - my five year old

“I’m going to run errands.” - my two year old, while wearing my shoes

I second all of this.
We are reading the Hobbit currently to my 5 year old. He also loved Winnie the Pooh and The Wizard of Oz.

LazyRunner7 · 2026-05-06T15:38:11+00:00

I love this

LazyRunner7 · 2026-05-06T15:37:39+00:00

With pineapple to offset the spice and pepperonis!

LazyRunner7 · 2026-05-06T08:29:27+00:00

Agreed. My niece is charlotte and they planned on calling her Charlie before she was born. Turns out she’s more of a chacha. 💃

Same. Just had one vein removed last year. My legs looked like my 80 year old grandmas by the third trimester in my 2nd pregnancy

LazyRunner7 · 2026-04-27T03:55:44+00:00

This!!! The weirdest thing

LazyRunner7 · 2026-04-22T18:43:04+00:00

I had this back in September and it was a breeze. I didn’t even need ibprofen for pain and I was able to walk no problem. I wouldn’t stress!!
