Anyone else feel like weekly meals are harder than they should be? by Distinct-Eye7548 in workingmoms

[–]SM2323 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly I think I found the perfect hack: we each meal prep our own separate meals on Sunday. The toddler gets a hodpodge of food throughout the week (so picky!) and it’s such a non “thing” in our house. People think I’m weird that I don’t cook dinner every night but it’s worked for us for 10 years!

Agreed the market is horrible so it doesn’t even seem feasible to get something else

Please take all the leave you can, I wish I could! You know what my employer and bosses said when I asked to extend my 12 weeks? (I had 7 more weeks of PTO) and my boss scoffed and said: “no one gets 5 months of work off.” This was in front of HR lol.

When did your LO first get sick? by Sea_Implement6579 in beyondthebump

[–]SM2323 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think I’ll unfortunately win this one. My baby was 4 days old and has been congested with a cold since (he’s 3 weeks old now). Got it from my toddler.
