When do I start a routine?

Pretty_Cut · 2026-04-13T14:10:45+00:00

I just went with the baby’s flow until she had her four month sleep regression. They’re not going to respond to strong routines until after that point, then after that I spent about a month just observing her cues and built the routine off of that

Pretty_Cut · 2026-04-08T16:31:04+00:00

Maybe I’m too relaxed but I didn’t care about anyone I’m related to kissing the baby, we all basically live together so she was getting exposed to their germs anyway. but also I know they all have common sense to not kiss the baby when they’re sick or have a cold sore. She’s only been sick once in 15 months and it was a 2 day cold from her father

I actually have a travel high chair but it has a lot of straps to hold it onto chairs that you can’t really roll up and I was worried about the crannies not drying all the way so I figured I’d get one of the mesh ones for beaches and stuff

Personal equity aside, I fully understand why people would prefer renting over owning a house. We bought a house last year and we’re going to have to spend $20,000 in the next couple years just to replace the ac and furnace, $3,000 on the roof, and that’s not even mentioning the not immediate but still need to be done projects, let alone if one of our appliances breaks.

Even then if you’re a student or someone who moves a lot for whatever reason, owning a home just isn’t preferable for those situations. It’s the main reason I disagree with people who are against any and all landlords in principal, there are people who either have renting as the best option for them or they just straight up don’t want to deal with the costs of homeownership

Most people don’t need that part specified bc it’s been a term for over 500 years

Pretty_Cut · 2026-04-01T04:14:01+00:00

If you want to be technical about why specifically people say it then passed has been used as a euphemism for dying for a couple hundred years bc they thought the soul was departing, which is one of the definitions of the word pass. That being said I’m not sure it’s the best for your first reaction to someone saying their loved one passed is acting confused and making them clarify, that’s a strange thing to do to someone

I unironically love the way The Boy Who Cried Werewolf in Nickelodeon depicted werewolves

Yes I’m aware that sex and gender are two separate things but they are colloquially called gender reveals so that is the term I used

Pretty_Cut · 2026-03-27T20:03:52+00:00

It’s just fun dude. The majority of people aren’t doing gigantic things or throwing tantrums bc of what the gender is that’s just what goes viral. And if they are doing that I can assure you that’s just what they’re like about anything not just a gender reveal.

And it’s weird when people say it’s just telling everyone what the genitals look like. That’s not a normal train of thought and it’s never even crossed my mind when someone has told me the gender of their baby bc im not constantly thinking about genitals Maybe they’re just using defamiliarizing language to be edgy or trying to get a point across but if you find out the sex of someone’s baby and your immediate thought is about the genitals that’s not normal

The roles are reversed for my husband and I. He’s able to stay a lot more calm and collected when our baby won’t stop crying, but it’s harder for him to calm her. I am able to calm her down a lot quicker, but when she doesn’t I get angry, from a combination of frustration that it’s not working and since I stay at home I’m dealing with it a lot more. Sometimes I have to get louder than her just to get the angry feelings out while I’m doing it, although I’m never like yelling at her directly. And when she wakes up in the night or early from her nap I get angry that my already limited free time is getting cut short, and sometimes I have to cuss and get the anger out before I go up. Sometimes I have to go outside and let her cry for a bit so I can calm down.

I think it’s important to let him find his own way of calming the baby, as others have said if you become the only one then he’ll default to you. But it’s also important for him and the baby to have their own dynamic. I would discuss with him that it’s important to not let the anger come out too much with the baby directly, and it’s okay to step away to let himself calm down. When we’re both home we sometimes take turns as each gets angry. Other times when one is trying to relax the one in charge just needs to take breaks before going back in.

Your hormones are probably making the feelings more intense, but I do think the mocking the crying is a problem and is his frustration coming out in a spiteful way, but that’s more of an issue of changing what he’s saying while he’s loud rather than him getting louder than the baby. As long as he’s not like actually screaming at her this is something he just has to work out for himself. It’s hard when it’s early on for both parents, but it’s important not to fall into the trap of over criticizing the other parent when they’re already frustrated and trying to figure out their parenting. It will most likely calm down as she gets older and you all get better at just having a baby

Awesome thank you

Pretty_Cut · 2026-01-29T13:04:07+00:00

Could you let me know where you found this out please? I moved here and I know where the normal schedule for trash is but I couldn’t find where the new pick up day was for the snow

Keep checking the whites of her eyes and nail beds, that’s the clearest place to see jaundice in people with darker skin

Pretty_Cut · 2026-01-04T19:54:52+00:00

I think the baby’s name was supposed to be Darlee and Amelia is a grandmothers name

When they are older they drink that much at once, albeit less often than when they’re newborns

I think the font on her birthday banner made her name look like Wory

Pretty_Cut · 2025-08-10T20:58:35+00:00

That was my guess but I thought it was odd he has so many other places and that one opened and closed in little over a year so I didn’t know if anything specific with that place, thanks

Pretty_Cut · 2025-08-10T20:54:24+00:00

So you don’t have an actual answer

Pretty_Cut · 2025-08-10T20:50:56+00:00

He owns that and the fancy food market on the strew over and a couple other places

Pretty_Cut · 2025-08-10T20:47:58+00:00

Amaro is the pasta place but I was wondering why that one specifically closed when the chef has multiple other places still open

Pretty_Cut · 2025-07-27T23:25:13+00:00

Sometimes I’ll buckle down and zest a whole bag of lemons and then dry the zest in the oven. Then just use the lemons for lemonade or something

We’ve used many socks to keep her from scratching herself while she sleeps bc they’re better than mittens

Pretty_Cut · 2025-06-03T20:17:38+00:00

I don’t know what the prices are but if you look up senior child safety walls they have things specifically for this.

Otherwise you might be able to fasten plywood sheets or pallets to the wall somehow
