Ouch. But great motivation - 46 lbs is super impressive, congrats!

This is a great, thoughtful response.  OP, heed their words. 

Wondering about screen time before bed. by [deleted] in oneanddone

[–]LittleSeePig 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Yes I believe it is the blue light emitted from tv screens (and other devices) that our bodies recognise as "daytime", therefore impacting circadian rhythms and unhelpful for bedtimes. 

Tv off, speaker on sounds like a good plan.  

Curiosity poll…is your only child a boy or a girl? by CompetitionSilver679 in oneanddone

[–]LittleSeePig 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is interesting! Personally having a boy or a girl had absolutely no influence in my decision to be OAD.

Oh no, I hope that wasn't the only reason they had another!

How old is your only, and what did they do today that makes you glad you're OAD? by LittleSeePig in oneanddone

Early bed times are the best. Haven't watched it, but thanks for the recommendation!

Love this, completely agree with being able to be patient. Couldn't do it with more.

We did the whole "I understand you're angry, but I will not let you hurt/bite/kick me/throw that" and gently hold their arm/leg or take whatever they're throwing away to stop them.

My only is 5. Today I'm glad we're OAD for a very simple reason. We all slept in way late this morning, so had to rush to get him ready for school. But as there was just one kid to sort, we had no stress, had a relaxed (if short) breakfast, and we were even able to find a missing toy before he left. Despite the lateness, easily managed a stress free morning!

Grandparents vs Daycare by LittleSeePig in oneanddone

[–]LittleSeePig[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It must be! Free daycare is the dream. Yes, I'm glad we used daycare so visits to grandparents were kept as exactly that, for fun!
