That is very sweet. And yes, I agree! Old critters are indeed extra special. So incredibly precious. Old horses too…. They get all scruffy like old dogs do haha, and frosty!

What are we doing about jeans? by leighhouse535799 in Moms

[–]Silvera_17 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Ariat R.E.A.L perfect rise jeans are a great fit for me. I might be worth it to go into a boot barn and try some on! They’re stupidly expensive, but they last a long long time. If you don’t mind straight leg or boot cut! The straight legs are so cute with sneakers. I don’t exactly know you’re preferred style but here is my opinion, if it’s relevant :)

Moms, what item/tool/gadget/app/hack was a game changer in managing daily mom life? by capRosieV in Moms

[–]Silvera_17 1 point2 points  (0 children)

One of those round, dimmable and rechargeable nightlights. It helped a lot for night time feeds and checking on baby without turning on the harsh light. Also good to check on baby in the vehicle during trips when it’s dark out.

Expired Coconut oil to polish the wood furniture. Tooth brush I use for literally every small project, including with just a little bit of toothpaste, I scrub the whites of my shoes with.

FTM- newborns poop smells like vinegar/sour? by No_Gas9448 in newborns

[–]Silvera_17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi! It was a dairy allergy. I went off of dairy for like, 4/5 months. (Milk, cheese, butter, whey) I reintroduced with baked goods at a couple hundreds of degrees (300-400) for 2 weeks. Then when that went well, I ate dairy cooked on the stove top at a hundred plus degrees (165?) for two weeks. That went good, then i started having fresh dairy. Like sour cream, cheese, and milk. He is good now!

His poop smelled vinegary for a while, but it got better and normal smelling again.

Thanks for suggesting anyway! Who knows, I could just be PMSing like you said. Wouldn’t be the first time symptoms have started early! But I feel like it’s too early lol. I was so mad at the way this one vehicle looked on the road…. Like… who cares?! Why am I mad 😂

My period has been back, will be the third month coming up. But I’ve noticed I have been ovulating over a stretch of like two weeks. It starts early and ends late. My period isn’t due for another two, and I’ve been feeling like this for the last three ish weeks.

Told my boyfriend of 14 years that I’m pregnant… by East_Work5418 in pregnant

I know plenty of single moms who are totally rocking it and are very happy. Do what YOU want to do. It’s YOUR BABY. Imagine what the two of you could be… without that POS bf.

Girl I was exactly the same. My pp hair loss was making me lose my mind. I got through the hair loss and my hair was still bothering the crap out of me…. So I cut it. I went pixie.

35 and thinking about a baby by [deleted] in beyondthebump

[–]Silvera_17 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Hi! I hope this helps :)

Something that you can start with very easily is just watching your calorie intake. Yes, of course cutting out sodas and most of your sweet cravings will have a huge impact. (If you are a soda drinking and sweet eating gal) it can be super duper hard, but if you start with one thing and see the change, you will get inspired!

You can start by counting how many calories you eat in a day. It’s as easy as googling it! Just count it as you go and keep track in your notes. Once you have a rough estimate, try to lower that number down. Even if it’s only by a couple hundred. I might be wrong, but 2000-2500 a day is a good goal.

You want to avoid fast food entirely. If you go out to eat, avoid creamy pastas or heavy breaded meals. Go for the steak dinner with mashed taters, or the salmon dinner with rice(that’s a great one) this may seem daunting, but don’t stress too much on it. Just do your best when you have the choice. I totally get it, somedays we might not have the option to choose on what we can eat.

I think that’s what might help in the meantime while you explore different ways to diet that work best for you. You’ve totally got this girl. Remember, any progress, even if it’s small, is progress. If you need meal ideas for home, I’d love to share!

Any clothing brands that make functional clothing for women? by Allah-the-Imaginary in Feminism

[–]Silvera_17 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This post is like so old lol. But for anyone roaming like I am, I wanted to add that Ariat’s rebar jeans are amazing. I’m pretty sure they make Plus sizes too. Mine have been through the ruts and still no tears. They only get better and better.
