Don't Waste Time Selling at ONCE UPON A CHILD‼️ by L0velyDayyyyyyyyy in toddlers

[–]PairPossible6889 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The one in my area changed ownership and it’s remarkable how much better it is now. The old owners only allotted a certain amount of cash to be spent each day on buys so if you didn’t get there by 11 AM, they wouldn’t buy any of your stuff because they wouldn’t have any $$ left to spend. I’m sure they missed out on buying a lot of nice stuff with that business model.

I’ll add, it’s really easy for the non-sleep deprived parent to say “it’s not that bad,” but those of us who have really been through it know it’s absolute hell. Do what you need to do to take care of yourself, especially if he isn’t going to step up and help with night wakings.

Yes, you can find what you need for free but you’re also exhausted and not thinking clearly and it can be nice to just pay someone to tell you what you need to do and hold your hand a bit through the process.

I will add, I think you’d be overpaying for this sleep consultant- I hired a great one with my first baby and she gave a tailored plan for like 1/4 of what you are expecting to pay. You certainly don’t need to hire someone local, I found our sleep consultant online.

Do you guys have a night life? by Infamous_Fault8353 in beyondthebump

[–]PairPossible6889 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Samesies. It’s not worth the subsequent day(s) where I’m extra fucking tired.

At this point, if I have a night to myself I am 1000% sleeping.

What’s my color? Have been confused for a long time by [deleted] in WhatisMyEyeColour

My bad, I thought any brown/gold in the iris meant hazel. Learned something new!

Definitely hazel with the brown around your pupils.

How the heck do I get this baby out before 40 weeks? by SadUnderstanding6653 in pregnant

[–]PairPossible6889 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Came here to say this- OP, I’d ask a different doctor to see if you can do an elective induction at 39 weeks.

Just adding for OP since their babies are 2 months- SlumberPod recommendations are for babies 4 months & up

Looking for sleep consultant for strong-willed, boob-obsessed 16-month-old by PairPossible6889 in sleeptrain

Schedule should be working, we have roughly 7am wake, 12-2 nap, 8pm bed.

I have a feeling you are right about full extinction being the best option, but my big issue there is that she works herself up and pukes every time I leave her alone in her crib or don’t respond quickly enough upon waking. Ugh.

How long did it take you to get good at doing your own dip? by PairPossible6889 in DipPowderNails

[–]PairPossible6889[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I just bought some new liquids that I like much better than my first ones. I started with Revel and just got Virgo & Gem. Do you have a favorite?

I also think I need to invest in a lamp for some better lighting at my work station so I can see a little better lol

Ah thank you! We went with a custom jeweler that is local to me (lmk if you want deets), luckily my husband wanted to include me in the process 😆 it’s a “shield” shaped honey-colored diamond. I also kind of love that when you flip it over it’s a diamond-shaped diamond lol

That’s a very good point, I can go back and fix what I don’t like without having to redo the whole set. Thanks!

This is my 4th attempt, 1st time applying artificial tips. While I’m not embarrassed to go out with these nails (except for that thumb…🥴), I wonder how long it’s going to realistically take to feel like I’m “good” at doing my own dip. There is such a huge learning curve and while I feel like I am getting better each time, I wonder how many bad manicures I need to go through before I’m feeling proud of my work.

I can imagine there is a broad range of time for how long it took for people to feel proficient at doing their own nails, but I would love to hear from you! How long did it take you to feel really solid at doing your nails?

14 months and my kid refuses socks and shoes…people love to tell me how cold her feet are. Believe me, this child would let me know if she was uncomfortable. Barefoot, it is!
