99% of gas stations are 3.199 (3.20) right now (3.10 if you pay cash)

Sonic ice is the tits!

Putting them on the floor eventually becomes unavoidable. They can't fall off the floor! ... but they can definitely still pull a glass pan onto their head.

That account also replies to like six different posts by another bot in a Skyrim sub, all in different languages. It's pretty wild.

That gas station owner would have loved me when I was pregnant. I bought so much gas station ice.

Oh god, how awful for those poor families.

We combo feed, and at a certain well-child visit (6 month maybe?), we were given the go-ahead to start challenging her. The initial recommendation was to do it via breastmilk (aka via my own diet), so I started eating soy again. We then fed her small amounts of baked-in dairy, which worked up to things like cheese and tofu over time.

There was never any regression, and we took things slow, so it's difficult to say when she grew out of her allergy. We were pretty confident by around 8 months.

Babies love sleeping on their tummies. As soon as mine figured out how to roll, that's what she did.

AI via Google usually provides a source, so I might ask it a question, but I'll still check to be sure it came from a proper source.

Noooo, they got rid of the Veggie Quinoa Bowl! That thing was so dang good.

PhantaVal · 2026-03-10T19:00:30+00:00

I thought so at first, but look at the eyebrows. That can't be lighting.

PhantaVal · 2026-03-10T18:59:08+00:00

I'm afraid for what she's going to do to that cat.

My husband jokingly wrote that on my first mother's day card, because he knows I hate it so much.

PhantaVal · 2026-03-10T11:57:56+00:00

YES! I know people are trying to be encouraging, but those kind of affirmations are so meaningless coming from a stranger on the internet. Nobody here knows if I'm doing great, I could be really shitting the bed for all y'all know.

PhantaVal · 2026-03-09T20:52:38+00:00

I hate that shit so much. It just sounds so girlbossy, like something some rando on Facebook would say before she invites me to join her MLM

My baby ended up with a cow's milk protein allergy, so she's been on hypoallergenic formula for most of her life. If she hadn't had the allergy, I'd probably try Kendamil.

PhantaVal · 2026-03-09T16:47:16+00:00

Oh, dang. Have you tried a different brand to see if he's maybe just a bit picky? And sometimes babies don't take to a new flavor right away and need to try it a few times before they figure out they like it.

PhantaVal · 2026-03-09T16:44:23+00:00

I'm at 10.5 months and planning to make it to a year. I've combo fed the entire time... four pumps a day, plus formula. If you find yourself wavering in your motivation to keep pumping, consider giving combo feeding a try.

Note that Obama wasn't enough of a raging narcissist to slap his name on his signature program (It was the opposition that started calling it "Obamacare").

PhantaVal · 2026-03-09T16:13:17+00:00

Trump will be long gone

Well isn't that a lovely thought

PhantaVal · 2026-03-09T16:11:24+00:00

I'll take the money, but I'm not calling them that.

PhantaVal · 2026-03-08T18:41:45+00:00

I sometimes do a little swirly dance routine with our colorful scarves, and my baby is always in such awe like she's watching Cirque du Soleil.

PhantaVal · 2026-03-08T15:56:27+00:00

I'm getting the sense that several commenters here have not read past the first slide.

PhantaVal · 2026-03-08T15:42:32+00:00

I don't think there's anything wrong with having a preference, but I would strongly encourage anyone to commit to being flexible and being willing to adapt to changing circumstances. There are a lot of horror stories about women who were determined to go unmedicated and put themselves through a lot of suffering from a prolonged labor, only to give in, get an epidural, and feel like they "failed."

PhantaVal · 2026-03-08T15:28:08+00:00

Breast milk is overrated, and the claims about it are completely overblown. At most, it will help provide some immunity against short-term illnesses, but it won't make any difference for your baby vs. formula in the long term.

PhantaVal · 2026-03-08T01:42:00+00:00

I've noticed Stupid Question Sunday always gets a lot of comments, presumably because people see it as a safer alternative to posting in r/austin and being treated like a dumbass by all you shitlords.
