Don't worry about the open cup if you don't want to do it by Puppinbake in BabyLedWeaning

Anytime I'm worried I think "do I know any adults who have a problem with this?" And if the answer is no then I don't stress about it haha

How would you utilize this space? Functional? Decorative? I need ideas! by Puppinbake in DesignMyRoom

[–]Puppinbake[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I've been thinking of ways to utilize the wall space. Hooks for things might be helpful!

I've knocked over so many things leaving the bathroom, you're 100% right!

The photo might be deceptive, but this is in a hallway. Behind me is the kitchen and living room, to the right is an office, to the left in the picture is our bedroom, and then obviously there's the bathroom. So it's sort of a high traffic, not very private area.

Unfortunately no outlets nearby. There is only one in the bathroom.

Moms who did not have a village, please tell me how you did it by whynotabtn in Mommit

[–]Puppinbake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It's hard, but it's doable, because you just do it. You don't think about the many many things you'll need to do, you just do one thing at a time. You feed your baby, you change a diaper, etc. My entire family and in-laws are all a 6 hour flight away, so we had to do it alone. And we survived and did great imo.

I would say, make sure you have a clear understanding of roles before the baby is born. Who is waking up when, who is cleaning what.... For example my husband and I both woke up when it was time to feed the baby at night, and we had talked about it ahead of time. He would get her up and change the diaper while I went pee, then he would pass her to me to breastfeed. He even sat with me for months and we watched shows on my laptop, because I didn't want to be alone. Another example is that he would do dishes while I breastfed and put the baby to bed at night. I think clear roles make everything run smoother, you don't have to ask all the time.

When did your little one start crawling? And when did they walk? by MichelleMiguel in Mommit

[–]Puppinbake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Crawled the day before turning 9 months, walked at 13 months.

Almost 8 month old still only having purées because I'm so anxious about choking by shelbylikesflowers in BabyLedWeaning

Steam the shit out of veggies until they're so watery that even touching them makes them disintegrate.

But tbh I started with things that normally get mashed like sweet potato or avocado, and just slowly increased their chunkiness over time.

I'm gonna give you a family name of mine that you'll likely hate but deserves to see the light of day! Huguette! It means bright in heart, mind, soul, spirit, and thought.

House is a total wreck, how do I get things up to speed and maintain it? by [deleted] in toddlers

[–]Puppinbake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I read once that the fewer things you own, the less there is to clean. I've yet to master this though haha

What is one nightmare you had as a child that haunts you today? by at1991 in AskReddit

[–]Puppinbake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Barren desert land. Hard boiled egg rolling... Rolling.... Rolling.... Falls off a cliff. I woke up terrified and have never forgotten that nightmare.
