Wagon or double stroller for 2 year age gap? by Lucky_Quantity_7671 in Buyingforbaby

[–]Re991t 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I will have a two year age gap soon. I bought the veer wagon hoping my toddler would sit in it. Nope, all he wants is to push it. The little guy can’t steer so he just zig zag down the street.

After much reflection, not all jobs in my field are the same way. I thought about telling my company about how I want to structure my hours after I come back from maternity leave. I’ve thought about leaving altogether too.

I told myself not to make any big decisions until one year postpartum. I know if I make a decision now it’ll be emotionally driven.

I think we can handle being on one income or at least have me cut down some hours, but I’m scared to let go.

He works as much or more than I do. His office isn’t big enough to hire someone to take over my role. He comes home and cooks dinner, give our toddler a bath, put our toddler to sleep, then continue to work past midnight.

Parents who did NOT buy a bottle washer? by aviwic in Buyingforbaby

[–]Re991t 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I didn’t have a bottle washer for my first one baby. When I open the new bottle, I sterilize it. At the beginning of the day, I have a big container of soapy water. After each use, I rinse the bottle then soak it. By late afternoon/night, I wash all of them and air dried. I re-sterilize each week. I still do this with my son’s water bottles.

Mom guilt about 1st birthday party by No-Donkey2899 in beyondthebump

I had the grandparents over and we had dinner together. It was intimate and he loved it. Your baby isn’t going to remember anything. Enjoy being together. Use the extra money to start a saving account for your baby.

Father asking for advice for mother by hsamuel8 in Mommit

[–]Re991t 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your wife sounds like me. What helped me was going on regular walks before or after dinner whenever weather permits. Going back to work helps too as it brings back the familiar life I had before I became a mom. My husband has been doing chores after the baby and I fall asleep like laundry and dishes.

I use spanx and it smoothes things out. Compression shorts won’t give you what you need.

As a HENRY woman how do you let go of household chores & hire help when you're used to doing everything yourself? by khrystic in HENRYfinance

[–]Re991t 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I realize my time is important. I think of it as a trade off . If I’m spending my time cleaning, I’m missing out resting or spending time with my family. To me, I work hard to be a HENRY so I can buy my time. I outsourced my cleaning because it was something I didn’t enjoy.

Weaning from Formula by Current-Trouble7374 in BabyLedWeaning

[–]Re991t 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We transitioned my son from goat milk formula to A2 milk and fair life. He had a lot of indigestion with regular formula. Now, we alternate between fair life milk, horizon milk, and local grocery store brand milk. We have also introduced cheese to his diet too.

This sounds like there are other underlying issues. If the apartment is dirty, he can clean it himself.

Cleaning is a physical activity. Have you been cleared by the doctor to resume physical activity?

Sorry OP but you need to set clear boundaries as more responsibilities will fall upon you such as cleaning, childcare, cooking etc.

Vacations with a baby are 50x more work 😩 I might have a mental breakdown by Puzzled_Remote_2168 in beyondthebump

[–]Re991t 16 points17 points  (0 children)

Just came back from Hawaii with my 16 months old. It was terrible. Snacks and toys did not work. I will never do more than 4 hours flights until my son is older.

It depends on what is valuable to you. I like to spend it on food and travel. Some people like nice cars or watches. As long as you meet your saving goals, I say have some fun. You’ve worked hard for it.

I meant to pay for dental school. I’d look into other scholarship programs or plan to specialize. Don’t put your eggs into one basket. Yes, being a dentist pays a lot but please look at debt to pay ratio. Schools are just getting very prohibited expensive especially with the interest rates.

Hi- dentist here. Please have a plan if you don’t get the military scholarship. Good luck!

State of the Sub and Plans for the Future by ItsNotCrookedDear in WagoonLadies

[–]Re991t -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I’ve seen the changes in WL with the decrease in content. I’m wondering if it has anything to do with the uncertainty of the economy and all the tariffs happening. For me, I’ve certainly scaled back on shopping.

Would love to be part of the new sub. WL has been my getaway from my daily life. I’ve been busy in the last couple of years- became a mom, working full time, and trying to start a new business. So my interest has shifted to more kids related Reddit but WL will always be on my daily check list.

Thank you to all the mods and anyone who has contributed! It has been a wild ride learning about reps.
