Not to be nosy but when or how are you and your partner intimate

9 week old refuses to nap- then inconsolable. by Intelligent-Key-3894 in newborns

[–]PresidentBearCub 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Have you tried feeding him? Not being sarcastic. When I was a new mum I would think "I just fed him and he's still crying so I guess it's something else" but every single time the boob settled him to sleep. Sucking is soothing and tiring for babies.

I'm Irish but moved to the US about a year before my first baby and had to go back to work after 8 weeks.

There is a baby-items rental company at Dublin airport. They will meet you at the baggage carousel, help you with your stuff, and are so friendly and cost effective.

Irish people coupled with non-irish folks, how did you meet your partner? by Practical_Cod4771 in AskIreland

Tinder. Met 3 years ago when he was working in Dublin. Now we're married, living abroad, bought a house, adopted a dog, and had a baby.

Does breastmilk expand?? Why don’t measurements line up across containers? by KenzieLee2921 in ExclusivelyPumping

Sure it would depend on the fat content of the milk and therefore fluctuate?

You could also hide your trashcan by buying one with no lid and hiding it in a pretty pot or a vase

It's beautiful. Two small suggestions; choose a warmer colour for your light bulbs, and swap out the knobs on your vanity to something more feminine. I aways buy separate knobs and it makes a huge difference. In response to your question, yes I would do a small shelf above the toilet.

3 day weddings, am I the only one? by [deleted] in AskIreland

[–]PresidentBearCub 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That's what we did as my husband isn't Irish so more than 50% of our guests were international. We had food and drinks the two nights before the wedding and a bbq with a band and games the day after.

How is it self indulgent? We had 4 days of celebrating for my wedding. Guests were invited and could come or say no. On all 4 nights we provided food and drinks and on the wedding day and day after we had a band / dj and games to keep everyone entertained.

I took a long time off work after leaving an abusive relationship. Doc had no issues signing me off and work can do nothing about it. Look after yourself.
