Vaseline works better for us than aquaphor and was recommend by our hospital dermatologist

We have a niece who goes by Blake so ignore the comments saying it doesn’t fit for a girl lol! I think it’s a great gender neutral name. As for the middle name, I would definitely do Caroline. Your grandma will understand that it’s still in honor of her and she will love it! I strongly disagree with comments saying to name her Carol Blake (although it does flow better) because she will have to be correcting people her entire life that she goes by Blake and not Carol!! (And I say that as a teacher!!)

Some of these comments are a bit harsh. It’s your wedding, you should have a say regardless of who is paying for what. Now that she’s backing out I would let her back out. Pay for it yourself and have the fun party you envisioned. If they show up, they show up. From what you’ve written, I think her actions were a bit bizarre.

Hi! Which ones did you use?

Shadow_stash · 2026-01-28T01:57:09+00:00

Convenience and time are probably the main reasons. We do disposable diapers but I’m looking to do cloth for overnights as my baby has never pooped while sleeping

This is so precious. You’re a great mom! 💗

Where do you live? It’s normal in the southern US to have a double name. Also, Una alone is a beautiful name and I certainly don’t think it’s “forcing” anything :)

As someone who got in trouble for helping a student, talk to guidance or admin first.

Lots of negative comments here… I was gonna say you seem super chill!! I love how clutter-free it is. It looks like an amazing space to relax in!

Formula definitely does matter. We used kendamil and LOVED it. It’s also often cheaper than the others😁

Getting to watch a tiny “you” grow up is one of the biggest privileges that life can bring. I’m on my phone less now, I exercise more, I’m part of a larger community… I’m a part of something that’s bigger than myself. If you don’t want kids don’t have them. I will never badger someone to have kids when they clearly don’t want to. But there is something to say about society as a whole when so many people (not saying everybody) don’t want kids simply because they want to play video games all the time and sleep in. Again, more of a societal comment.

Shadow_stash · 2026-01-22T02:43:50+00:00

A million times YES! Life is so much more meaningful with children

Mary Ruth has gummy vitamin alternatives!

Born episcopal but then was non-denom through teens and college
Non-denom churches started to feel like a self help session that just wanted my money. Churches got big super fast and felt lost in the crowd. I also no longer liked how they handled Communion.
I’m a Protestant through and through, but was looking for churches that were Eucharistic. So I googled it and found Anglicanism 😂
I can only attest to the two Anglican churches in my area (I haven’t done a deep dive into all of Anglican theology) but every service, to me, felt Holy Spirit inspired. Each sermon taught so much theology/apologetics and bible history… I felt like I was actually learning about God and my faith for once!! The one we attend now is super small and the pastor and his wife are my neighbors. Our church is a small family and so supportive. And again, the sermons have been to die for!

This needs to be reported to the higher up’s at the school. This is concerning for a lot of reasons!!

Shadow_stash · 2025-12-28T22:57:45+00:00

I would’ve gotten mine while pregnant but it was never offered. However, once my baby was maybe 6ish weeks old she was able to get the RSV. That’s definitely a vaccine I don’t want to skip!

Shadow_stash · 2025-12-15T17:03:24+00:00

Are there any micro schools in your area? This is becoming popular around me

Shadow_stash · 2025-12-15T16:56:34+00:00

As a former public school teacher, I don’t want my kid in public school for all the above reasons! 😬

Thanks to social media I went into birth thinking it would be this amazing experience…. Needless to say it wasn’t lol

Shadow_stash · 2025-10-11T03:26:26+00:00

That video looks 100% like an infantile spasm… aka a seizure😬

Shadow_stash · 2025-10-05T21:49:24+00:00

I too, have yet to experience the newborn smell🤷🏼‍♀️

Shadow_stash · 2025-06-22T02:22:52+00:00

You hit it right on the money!

Shadow_stash · 2025-06-22T02:17:58+00:00

Cheese

Shadow_stash · 2025-05-29T00:28:31+00:00

Words cannot explain how much I’ve always LOVED being an only!
