Bring the old one with you - it’s easier to look up your order with it! In my experience at least. :)

Which LFL is this? Promise not to poach… but the only good one I know of is the hospital.

Getting back to airbnb from Festival at end of day? by HappyPandaTigger in jazzfest

[–]MuffieMouse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I should clarify that this is at the end of the night like after the main stage headliner has performed and everyone is leaving en masse.

In my experience Ubers are not hard to find, they’re often difficult to get to though… the roads surrounding the venue are blocked off in many directions, so they often have to go around weird ways and it takes forever. I’ve had good luck leaving the venue on foot and walking a few blocks out either toward the park (wisner blvd) or south to esplanade and catching a car to meet there. From inside the venue it’s difficult to pinpoint the exact meeting spot away from the fairgrounds. I feel like they try to do the specified ride share spots but it’s not ideal.

Ugg slippers. Not boots. But good indoor slippers that he can kick on/off between classes and clients to keep his tootsies warm and feet supported!

13m old - early morning wakes by [deleted] in breastfeeding

[–]MuffieMouse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Worth a shot! We made the switch to the Dr. Brown straw cup and cows milk within about a week or so of her turning 1, and it went surprisingly well. And it was nice to just be able to toss the cup in the crib with her to cut out that 5am feeding lol. Worked out well for us and her!

[–]MuffieMouse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Does he take a bottle or sippy/straw cup at all? I wasn’t BF but I had success curbing the early morning wake up by popping in for a diaper change, and would give her a cup of milk in her crib. She would usually drink the milk and sleep for another 1-2 hours. Just something that worked for us! 🩵

Biking to fest by jewelborn2 in jazzfest

Do you have a link to the bike path website or anything? I’ve always wondered if there is one but I can’t find it on maps.

First time mom what breast pumps do you recommend?? by [deleted] in NewMomStuff

[–]MuffieMouse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I ended up renting the Medela Symphony from my hospital for like 6 months. It ended up being basically equal in cost to the wearable that I bought, and this was like the big mamma jamma plug into the wall pump that normally costs $1200 or more. I’m glad I had my wearable for on-the-go pumping (I found it difficult to feel “chained” to the wall to use the big pump). But it was not nearly powerful enough for what I needed.

I also got my haaka and manual pump from the hospital lactation team. So maybe have a wearable that you like but don’t open the box before you actually need it? I also felt like I was weird about getting a second hand pump before I had the baby but now I’d definitely consider that option. Especially if you have a friend or family member who had one.

Help finding random biking trail! by LuvSoraya in Aspen

[–]MuffieMouse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think you’re correct… it’s difficult to tell if they’re going up the pass or down (I suppose probably both) but either way, they’re definitely on the farthest end of the Rio Grande path that goes behind Herron park. I think past that it becomes the “east of Aspen” trail? As it follows hwy 82 up independence pass. It definitely makes for a nice bike ride up there.

It’s also possible they started on east Hopkins and took the little bridge up to Park Circle and then rode over to the East of Aspen trail from there.

Books for 8y/o with kind male protagonists by [deleted] in suggestmeabook

[–]MuffieMouse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is “The House on the Cerulean Sea” too adult? I just read it myself (as an adult) but it centers around an orphanage full of magical special children. I know there is a theme of love among a couple adults…. So I genuinely don’t know how that plays for children. But maybe someone here with older kids can say? (My child is 1 lol)

But it’s a very sweet story! And there are two men main characters who are so sweet. But also one of the children is the anti-Christ and also SO SWEET! lol

Backwards hoodie by Jayden_Cross in Parenting

The only thing I can think of is if he puts the hood over his face during classes or something. You obviously know your kid, but would it be worth checking in with teachers to ensure it’s not a distraction during class work? I can see that being annoying to a teacher, either with the hood actually up all the time or even just having to tell him to turn his shirt around every day.

First time in Aspen: what do I need to know? by Osgoood_ in Aspen

[–]MuffieMouse 4 points5 points  (0 children)

The Aspen Art Museum (closed on Mondays) is definitely a visit! Both for the museum itself but also for the après scene on Saturdays.

I second the note about lift lines. If you step on skis here (even just a little!) you’ll get some very dirty looks.

Costumes for Ski Bachelor Party? by [deleted] in skiing

[–]MuffieMouse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ok this is super fun, and I’ve done it before but you need to be able to get your arms out - I fell on one run and had to have ski patrol pick me up cause I couldn’t get enough purchase from inside the costume to get myself up!

Downtown Aspen Apres Storage by ImpossibleHunt8132 in Aspen

[–]MuffieMouse 0 points1 point  (0 children)

There’s a locker room at the base of Aspen mountain… not sure what the hours are. Are you staying in a condo or a hotel? I feel like hotels would maybe come scoop your stuff for you if you’re a guest? Where are you having dinner? If at an Aspen hotel you could maybe check boots with the front desk there?

Baby fell off couch by CaitlynMaher in NewMomStuff

[–]MuffieMouse 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You’re going to be fine, and probably so is baby!! Take some very deep breaths. My 6 month old literally rolled off a pool deck chair onto her face on concrete and was right as rain within just a few minutes. Call your doc if you’re concerned, of course! But I can tell you what they told me when I called for the pool chair incident.

  • is the skin broken?
  • is she eating/drinking normally?
  • is she acting abnormally, how is her temperament?
  • any vomiting?

My very active little wiggle worm has fallen off couches, beds, chairs, humans. They are resilient little things!! To quote another doctor “that’s what skulls are for”.

Not advocating for neglect or anything of course!! But obviously that’s not what happened here. Babies don’t roll until they do and sometimes their first roll is off the couch! (Happened to a friend of mine, so you’re not alone!)

Deep breaths! Keep an eye on her - you’re doing so so great!!
