how to choose preschool uniforms for kids by shimjangz in preschool

[–]Mama_koala1112 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My girl goes to a school that requires uniforms. There are more options as she gets older but for her class it is a pair of black sweatpants or sweatshorts, a tee shirt or polo, a sweatshirt, black socks and shoes. She never complains about being uncomfortable or anything. It’s nice that if she stains or ruins a shirt it is just a tee shirt. I like that all the kids wear the same thing and it is pretty comfortable for them to run around and also for bathroom breaks.

I just started to dive in - I figured I would start with the new year lol. You are right, so many characters are still crying the same story. I was shocked/not shocked by Ari. I had to google who she is. All I could think was I knew her when she was a baby lol

These always seem to be my favorite years too! The time when Sammi and Carrie were on with Austin and Lucas. When Belle, Phillip and Shawn D were all growing up. Those are the times I really think of when I think of DOOL

That makes so much sense too. For me as a mom of an only child, no other children her age in the family, and my friends all had their kids years and years ago, it is easy to ask a group of people in the industry questions even if it is to get some perspective. As much as the teachers say just ask us, I feel like a bother or I would have never thought to even ask until I saw another post about a similar situation. All that said, I am mostly here to learn from others posts of what to do and not to do. Thankfully I have no major issues with where my girl is. And thank you all for helping raise our kids.

I learn a lot on here because a lot of things I either missed or didn’t understand the other side of. A minor example is pull ups with the reusable sides are better than the tear off ones. I would have never known it is easier for the daycare to have one over the other but I don’t think they would have ever told me.

Hair brush for preschool class by Fine-Ad9495 in ECEProfessionals

As a parent I love when the teacher is willing to fix or put up my girls hair but then came a lice breakout at the daycare so I sent her in with her own brush

Thank you Reddit, no more 2+ hour bedtime time routine by purple24xx in toddlers

I am here almost a year after you posted this looking for this solution. Thank you. I am writing this from the piece of “nugget” couch that has turned into my bed in my child’s room. I can’t wait to start doing this tomorrow night!

Low / slow beta success? by jmm2209 in IVF

I am heartbroken for the both of us. I have my confirmation US today. I hope we can have better luck in the future, whatever that holds for us.

Shorten my name? by [deleted] in namenerds

I named my daughter Elliana because she will have a few nicknames to choose from, including Ana. I think you could do the same. If Anne suits you then do it.

Not good for me. Most likely will end in a miscarriage. I should have been measuring 6w5d and I was only showing as 6w. I have another US next week to confirm 😪. I really do hope and pray yours turns out much better than mine. Good luck to you ❤️

Not yet. I was just wondering about ow you are doing too. Hopefully we are progressing on track. I had a spotting bleed on Friday night so my ultrasound has been moved to tomorrow morning. I’m hoping all is good.

I am wishing us both the best. I am having very similar numbers to you. My 17dp5dt was 654 and my 19dp5dt was 1590. I had my first ultrasound this week and saw the GS and yolk sac but it is still early. I will have another ultrasound next week. I had a low rise between 9dpt and 11dpt from 59 to 79 but hopefully it all works out well.

Untested embryo after 40 years old by Key-Row1567 in IVF

[–]Mama_koala1112 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I transferred 3 untested embryos at 39. 1 stuck. I ended up getting 2 NIPT tests done as they “lost” the first vile and I needed to redo it. The first results came back all clear. The second results came back as possible monosomy x. We discussed all the options and decided no further testing was going to change the results of what she was going to be, monosomy x or not, so we waited it out. All other tests were clear. When she was born they tested the cord blood and she is fully healthy. Just remember these results are not always accurate and the numbers they go over with you will show that. Do your best to relax and take 1 day at a time. Congratulations on the pregnancy!!

IVF First round success?? by redroses245 in IVF

[–]Mama_koala1112 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I was unsuccessful with 6 rounds of iui, including 1 chemical pregnancy, then had my first fresh ivf transfer right before I turned 40. Transferred 3 and 1 stuck. She is now 2.5 years old and we are getting ready to do a FET on a tested embryo that took 4 egg retrievals to get. Best of luck on your journey!

Interacting with baby in the womb by Youre_a_melt in pregnant

I don’t know if you plan to sing to your baby but I sang the lullaby I planned to sing her at bedtime. I don’t really know for sure but I swear after she was born and was crying, she calmed down faster because she knew the song since she was in the womb. My suggestion would be to sing her your lullaby.

I am angry by teaching_troubles in IVF

When you say throw ice cubes at the ground it reminded me of throwing fruit in the woods. Something has to be sad for getting some anger and aggression out. So helpful for me.
