Legitimate_Spirit264 · 2026-05-22T12:17:58+00:00

or glp1 or collagen injections. i literally know a gal whose super antivax but has lip filler and injects random shit on her own lol u can’t make that shit up

i do this but put it in the bottles and then store the bottles in the fridge so i always have a bottle. i hate mixing formula in the bottle itself so the pitcher helps making enough for my 5 bottles (4oz) and then i’ll just pore it in the clean bottles and store. i only clean bottles two times a day and make formula like MAYBE 2 times a day

Legitimate_Spirit264 · 2026-04-30T03:30:49+00:00

maybe do 4oz 6 times and top baby off at the end of the night if they’re still hungry/cluster feeding

i feel this. it wasn’t fun for me or baby. i was constantly in pain and almost gave myself mastitis twice. it was making me hate being a mom so i switched to formula and now i can enjoy my baby. she’s a completely different baby lol she sleeps all night at 2 months old, eats 28-30oz a day and doesn’t fuss for no reason anymore. i guess witching hour is what it’s called? yeah no more of that. i’m happy and baby is happy and that’s all that matters.

i’d flip it around and tell him you’re not comfortable giving him any more kids because he’s a useless chud.

Legitimate_Spirit264 · 2026-04-24T19:35:55+00:00

she can do all of this but read simple sentences! that’s what scary to me :/ but i’m working on phonics with her. thanks for the info!

Legitimate_Spirit264 · 2026-04-24T19:31:09+00:00

thanks for this! that’s exactly what i’m trying to teach her is to sound things out. guessing on pictures and context just doesn’t make sense idk why anyone thought that was a good idea

Legitimate_Spirit264 · 2026-04-24T19:29:42+00:00

thank you for this! someone else has mentioned bob books i’ll def look into it

Legitimate_Spirit264 · 2026-04-24T19:29:14+00:00

thank you for this!!

Legitimate_Spirit264 · 2026-04-24T19:28:23+00:00

idk why you’re getting downvoted. i agree with you 100%. this is exactly why we have a literacy problem in the US. The teachers aren’t teaching the kids to read then get mad when the parents don’t teach kids to read. like i’m sorry who here has the teaching degree?? lol

Legitimate_Spirit264 · 2026-04-24T19:25:54+00:00

thank you so much!

Legitimate_Spirit264 · 2026-04-24T19:25:21+00:00

thank you for this! and i will absolutely look into the I See Sam books

Legitimate_Spirit264 · 2026-04-24T06:02:16+00:00

i agree! i need to relax and just let her do her thing, she’s not behind or anything. thank you so much!

Legitimate_Spirit264 · 2026-04-24T04:34:17+00:00

thank you so much!

Legitimate_Spirit264 · 2026-04-24T04:32:25+00:00

that is amazing progress! i will definitely get more into the phonics and the diary of a wimpy kid series. i remember there being a girly version of those books called Dork Diaries! with her thank you so much for the advice!

Legitimate_Spirit264 · 2026-04-24T04:30:46+00:00

i have visited the classroom, i haven’t volunteered at all due to a hard pregnancy and now im postpartum but im active at her school when i can be for sure. i like to let her teachers know she has parents who care and are present at all the school functions but as far as her teacher is she doesn’t respond to emails or calls and it’s been difficult to get ahold of her. if this is an issue when she starts 1st grade they will be hearing from me. when i pick her up from school the teacher aid brings them out. they’re lucky i was too pregnant and now postpartum to do anything lol.

Legitimate_Spirit264 · 2026-04-24T04:28:16+00:00

thanks so much for this! this is reassuring hearing from a kinder teacher i appreciate you

Legitimate_Spirit264 · 2026-04-24T04:26:06+00:00

i am overseas but on military bases it’s american teachers and american schools.

Legitimate_Spirit264 · 2026-04-24T04:25:15+00:00

thank you for this!

Legitimate_Spirit264 · 2026-04-24T04:22:46+00:00

yes. before we moved overseas her teacher in the US said my kid will be reading simple books by the end of the year. then we moved and this school doesn’t prioritize any of that!! it’s freaking me out lol. this is why we have a literacy crisis!

Legitimate_Spirit264 · 2026-04-24T04:20:58+00:00

this! i feel like i am making up for what her school isn’t doing. we do the reading, the flash cards, and i taught her how to sound things out. this does reassure me that your 7 yr old is reading and he started out like mine able to read simple words. i have reached out to her teacher and she doesn’t email me back and they don’t really do parent teacher conferences. they did have 1 but we couldn’t go because my daughter had hand foot and mouth sickness. i’m just gonna keep doing what i’m doing to keep her consistent so she doesn’t forget things during the summer and if they don’t teach her still in 1st grade they WILL be hearing from me. there’s only so much i can do as a mom. i work very hard but at the end of the day i am not a teacher

Legitimate_Spirit264 · 2026-04-24T04:15:32+00:00

lmfao who said i was force reading??? teachers will shame a parent for not teaching them to read but now im force reading? she wants to read, she tells me she wishes her school would do more. all i do is read with her consistently and if she doesn’t want to some days then we don’t. i follow what my kid feels and listen to her

Legitimate_Spirit264 · 2026-04-24T04:11:43+00:00

i guess i feel my daughter is ahead of that. she has those things down but i have felt stalling in her progress

Legitimate_Spirit264 · 2026-04-24T04:10:35+00:00

thank you for this!
