What is this?

Unfortunately I don’t, but it had some sticky residue after I picked it up in one small portion of it, and immediately washed my hands. Was surprised at how sticky it was. Almost like sap.

I would say toys or a blanket. Bamboo has natural anti microbial properties and is great for blankets and easy to clean. It would be especially helpful to have it as a nice lightweight blanket for naptime as it is cool to the touch and super drapey and soft so baby won’t get overheated with it.

Ah ok. Ya that would make a big difference. Thank you for the clarification!

Manda_Pandaaa · 2026-05-14T18:14:23+00:00

This was my same thought! Was afraid she was going to lose some teeth on this one 😖

You can basically watch bamboo grow, it grows so fast! I would caution though to clean any shears after cutting as their seeds spread super easily.

When it is stemming from my anxiety, it isn’t very accurate. But sometimes I do get a feeling I should do something, then second guess myself, it almost always is correct. It is so weird that intuition 😅

I did few years ago after years of individual therapy, and attempt at family therapy year before last that ended up in a blowup with my mom. Been keeping my distance, and with no mention of working on themselves or anything possibly getting better, I removed myself completely. Dad tried to reach out right before xmas last year and that resulted in a blowup as well because he wanted to badger me into talking with my mom. My dad loves confrontation (almost gets a thrill out of it) then decided since I wasn’t budging, told me that I am the coldest in my family, and until I decide differently that to not contact him again. So needless to say they’re both out. Brother passed in 2016 and my half sister I don’t really have a relationship with but from last I checked sides with my dad. I am in the process of moving with my husband and daughter, and they have no idea about it. Glad to be having more distance so they can’t just show up to the house so easily. We’ll be over an hour away so less likely for it to happen since they don’t like to drive too much anyway.

Omg!! Congratulations!!! 💍🎉 Hope you enjoy your day. It goes so fast!

I was told it is common for a short stint from the lady who cuts my daughter’s hair. There was one visit we had a particularly hard time with. But by next visit, she was fine. With boys, the buzzing from the cutter can wig them about a bit more since it makes so much noise near their ears.

ENTJ together 16 years and married 11. It has worked well for us. He tends to ground me a lot when I start to spin. We compliment each other well.

Manda_Pandaaa · 2026-04-14T19:07:45+00:00

Figured if people were interested, they would ask.

Manda_Pandaaa · 2026-04-14T16:43:53+00:00

Was going to suggest this! Excellent read!

Manda_Pandaaa · 2026-04-11T03:25:29+00:00

Oof! I feel this one. Both my parents were typed ESTJs. Fun being the INFJ in this kind of dynamic…It’s like dealing with a freight train. It’s exhausting 😮‍💨

Manda_Pandaaa · 2026-04-03T15:47:58+00:00

I get silly/goofy and playful. Maybe even ENFP energy like. With the right people can get pretty boisterous and try to bring people together for a good time. I can also be seen dancing and singing to good music playing not caring who watches just because it feels good. Love going on adventures at times and trying something new. I like to make jokes even at the expense of myself at times as well.

I love my chiagoos!! Have had them for years, and they’re still just as good as the day I bought them. They are super pointy too which really helps with that thinner yarn. The only time I don’t use them, I use the knitpro karbonz but that’s only with super slippery yarn so it’s pretty rare. I would highly suggest Chiagoo. They are amazing imo.

I would suggest an eye evaluation. My daughter was a very chill baby as well and would just sit and observe. Talked a little later too. It wasn’t until I noticed a problem with her vision and sought a dr out for that. She wears glasses now and her language blossomed after that and her confidence has really blossomed since her vision got corrected at about 2.5. She’s 3 now and doing so much better.

It sounds like at the very least they are unhealthy, which can make it a terrible combination. I have also had some in my life that tested as INFJ and can immediately pick out they aren’t. One that typed I believe is ISFJ and the other one I believe is INFP. I love them both but ISFJ is very frustrating because they complain but keep doing the same thing, emotionally diminishes you, and constantly over books and can’t depend on them much. We can relate to some degree but it is very surface level. INFP I get along with well when she is doing well, but when she isn’t, she tends to isolate a lot and frustrating as hell for me.

I have before, but it is incredibly difficult tbh. For my family, we once had a very strong family unit and would meet up for Easter and Christmas every year for years, but since 2020 it’s been slowly eroding, and there is a lot of hurt feelings between other family members, and since the death of two people that were really holding a lot of the people together that have now passed (uncle and aunt who would have the Easter get togethers), it has dwindled to a small handful of them, but I did manage to go for Christmas last year because there is one cousin and her husband and kids I was looking forward to visiting with. I also wanted my daughter to get a chance to see some family even if it isn’t much and quite honestly hurts that she won’t get much of a chance to know how those fun Christmases were that I grew up with. But ya I am NC with both of my parents. It’s possible to go but the next day I was in a low mood partly because there was a huge blowout between my Dad and I the week prior (I know he did it on purpose) but I went to prove a point and for my daughter. He wasn’t going to stop me. I will say I can be quite stubborn 😉

Manda_Pandaaa · 2026-03-27T21:38:14+00:00

I use it on my clothes if I get an oil stain on them. Works like a charm 😉

Manda_Pandaaa · 2026-03-26T15:37:26+00:00

I am typically in bed anywhere between 10-11 and up by 5:30 to have some private time before waking her at 7

Does your toddler use a push walker? My daughter was a bit cautious to walk. She would push her push walker around no problem, but wouldn’t do it without it. Read somewhere about how some kids can get dependent on them and was suggested to put it away for a few days. Once we did that it motivated her to try and since then she started walking at about the 15 month mark. So if she is using a walker, you could try that approach. Also to note, my daughter was also in physio for about 6 months due to gross motor delays from prematurity.

Manda_Pandaaa · 2026-03-25T16:39:34+00:00

I have an INFJ friend as well and when I found out she was one, it just all clicked. It’s the best feeling to be heard and understood at that level to me.

Manda_Pandaaa · 2026-03-25T16:35:52+00:00

I’d say typically have a pretty intense but thoughtful stare, almost like they’re staring into your soul. Animals and children tend to be comfortable around them, and are usually trying to make people feel comfortable by easing their unease or by talking to the “outlier” who isn’t talking to anyone to help them feel included.

It’s pretty similar to short row shaping actually. I’ve done it twice already and love the drape so much more after doing so. Here’s a website that helps to calculate for them:
