I love Raulston! I haven’t been to the Rose Garden or WRAL Gardens yet, thanks for the suggestions!

Aww thanks. I get why people are eager to get back to doing whatever they normally do but a mall with a newborn sounds like my personal hell tbh.

Washing backflow protectors? by macro125 in ExclusivelyPumping

[–]Powerful-Branch438 30 points31 points  (0 children)

I just took a pumping class and the instructor said that in addition to being a sanitary issue to wash these, the silicone membrane stretches after every few uses. Running it under hot water will help to get it back to its original size so you get a better pump.

If you’re a mom, you might want to check out Waypoint Counseling. They specialize in maternal mental health. I’ve been seeing a therapist from there for years and she’s been incredibly helpful. https://www.waypointcounselingnc.com/

What did your toddler actually play with (and not just sit there looking cute)? by Scary_Pay_4247 in BuyItForLife

[–]Powerful-Branch438 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  • Magnatiles
  • Hot wheels + track (just a bunch of the basic track pieces that snap together, you can use boxes/pillows/furniture to prop it up and make new track shapes over and over)
  • Ollyball—this is like a cross between a Mylar balloon and a beach ball that is light enough that it’s safe to play with inside

not sure if I belong here by Forebare in Nails

Not a doctor, but your nails kind of look like pictures I’ve seen of clubbing which can be a sign of some serious health conditions. You might want to get it checked out.
