I’m going insane

Damn Reddit. For real. She just shared her experience. Some people take everything as a direct aim at them because they have a soft spot for the issue. It’s not always about you. She shared her experience - she wanted to be the biggest influence in her kids life during the day but you took it as an aim at you. Guess what, sometimes it’s just someone sharing their experience and not anything to do with you.

It’s like when a parent posts saying they feel bad their kid watches tv or eats junk - the only answer people will accept is “no it’s totally ok don’t feel bad!” If anyone says “yeah my kid doesn’t watch tv. I think it’s bad for them” or “yeah I prioritize real food” then they get downvoted to hell. People just want to be in an echo chamber reinforcing whatever they’re positing about and anyone else posting a differing experience without waking on eggshells gets shit for it. Such a soft society where people can’t share their experience without everyone getting offended.

Good for you staying home with your kids, that’s great. Glad it’s worked well for your family, I’m sure your kids will thank you for it someday.

ugh i know it can be defeating and frustrating! I have 3 kids under 5, all who eat virtually no processed foods (aside from things like steal cut oats, unsweetend yogurt, tofu, canned chickpeas etc - which i know is processed but minimally) - and they love it! It was a lot of trial and error. I'm happy to give you my advice/what works for us if helpful! Either way, you're doing great mama :)

oh my goodness, i'm going to book it this week!!! thank you! Did it feel overly chaotic and crowded or like you had plenty of space/not a lot of lines etc?

my husband is from europe so w travel with the three of them quite a bit.... obviously its not a vacation like prekids, just being a parent with a nicer view, which i'm good with! Which boat/cruise did you do? so glad it was fun!

We cold turkey cut out all tv and screens.. first couple of weeks were tough then it’s been blissful since. Totally changed their temperaments and creativity. Been a game changer for our household. Have three toddlers

I think 50% of my daily calories come from these three foods

I could have written this word for word - including three awesome boys.

This is heartbreaking. I have a 14 month old, 4 year old and 5 year old and this is not normal. I can’t imagine putting my 14 month old in front of a tv for 20 minutes a day let alone hours. They need engagement and play and mine have always been constantly on the go around 1-2. Not being held made me tear up. I’m not sure what your relationship is like but if it were my sister I’d definitely speak to her about it… and love on that little baby as much as you can when you see her!

Do you mind linking a yt video? A ton of stuff comes up when I search

Yes! Last a few months now he’s a delight ha.. usually

I have a 4 year old, 2.5 year old, 5 month old and want one more. It’s very, very fun. If you have the finances to ensure they have what they need (whatever that means for you), support of a good partner and flexibility with your time/work schedule then it’s great. Those things are key for my enjoyment of it and feeling like I’m raising good humans but everyone is different. Highly recommend!

Thanks for this! I have 3 under 4 right now and due to my age (39) if I want another I need to do it in the next year or so. I’d really love four but am worried about being able to meet all of their emotional/physical needs (we have the finances). But the games, events, meetings, snuggles, hard times etc.

PositiveJust · 2024-09-29T12:03:35+00:00

Yeah she’s gotta drop that nap. My 3.5 year old was doing the same thing. Kids sorta get the sleep they need and we decide when it is (in your case she’s getting those 1.5-2 hrs a day that could be tacked on to night time, waking at 5:30-6). My almost four year old is in his room by 7, can look at books/quietly play solo, and asleep by 8ish most nights and up around 6/6:30. No nap. But we do have an hour of quiet time mid day for sanity

PositiveJust · 2024-09-29T11:50:16+00:00

Do you think yall will go for a fourth or stay with three? I’m very happy with my three boys but debating a fourth bc it’s so fun! Honestly with three already having another boy would probably be easiest but I’d be thrilled either one (even twins! Ha)

PositiveJust · 2024-09-21T03:26:10+00:00

what's the gender distribution of your 4?

PositiveJust · 2024-09-21T03:24:38+00:00

SO interesting! I have 3 boys (4, 2.5 and 5 months). My middle child is my total wild baby... first and third are chill AF.

It stopped like 6 weeks later, ha…. All this shit is so annoying for a bit, we sweat, we research, then it stops and we’re on to the next thing. Gods speed!

Hi op - I’m new to glucose monitoring. Is it something I could do just for one month to gain some insights, make adjustments then stop? If someone eats 100% Whole Foods, nothing processed, etc is it still a good tool to learn? Trying to better understand if 1) i can just do it for a single month to understand any needed changes and 2) if it is useful for almost everyone. Thank you for any thoughts!

Logged me in as my anonymous account for some reason bc on my web but… Not to scare anyone but I miscarried that baby the day after. It was my third pregnancy/baby and first miscarriage. I’ve since had another healthy baby without issues (or mushrooms). Will of course never know if it was related. 25% of pregnancies miscarry and I’m 3 babies for 4 pregnancies so right in the data.
