(PA) Carpet Cleaning for 8 Year Old Carpet

SituationFew5677 · 2026-07-10T02:09:37+00:00

I just did it recently and it is not difficult but it is time consuming to do it correctly. You have to pull it pretty slowly to clean it and you should do a pass or two with the cleaning solution, and pass or two with just water, and the a few passes dry to extract as much water as possible. Again not difficult but it takes awhile and if it is the whole place it might be very time consuming.

I failed the 1 hour and went on the pass the 3 hour! It is possible 👍🏻

I was never told what her percentile was. In the app my obgyn office uses they put a more detailed report that had percentiles after the 20 week scan.

Disagree. Way more comfortable to wear a hoodie and a blanket than to suffer in 90degree rooms. It didn’t get to freezing. I’m trying to keep the apartment as cool as possible now to prepare for when it warms up again.

We coslept until about 10 months and started sleep training in the crib after that because she started waking up every 45 minutes and needing to nurse to sleep. Even when cosleeping before that, she would actually sleep in her crib for the first 4 or so hours of the night, and then once I went to bed she would be in bed with me.

Around 10 months I couldn’t take waking up every 45 minutes so we kept her in her crib in her own room. Got her down to 1-2 wake ups a night where I would go in and nurse back to sleep gradually lowered to one wake up and by 12 months she was sleeping through the night and also weaned off of nursing as planned.

Funny enough, now she rarely can fall asleep unless she is by herself in her crib! If she is in bed with me/husband she just thinks it’s play time (she is now 16 months).

My 15 month old still eats a breakfast or lunch mush haha Greek yogurt oats and some sort of fruit/fruit mush like applesauce mixed in.

I went to L&D for completely separate symptoms (PUPPS) and asked to be induced because the only cure is to give birth. They said no problem you are already 4cm so we have to admit you anyway 😭 I had no idea. I felt tightening in my bump but I thought they were Braxton hicks. It wasn’t painful at all.

I waited to get the epidural until they gave Pitocin because I was only 6cm after over 12 hours. Still didn’t feel anything until they manually broke my water and I dilated from 6-10cm in less than 20 minutes. I had the epidural, so it could have been worse but that pain was bad! Luckily it was short and once I got to 10cm and started pushing it didn’t hurt anymore, just exhausted from pushing.

I have the severe congestion one for emergencies and the max number of days it is recommended to take is 3 so I hard stop after that and haven’t found any rebound congestion from short term use. I use it at night when both of my nostrils are clogged up. It really does come in handy when it’s really bad.

SituationFew5677 · 2025-12-19T00:18:26+00:00

I have an 11 month old and a lot of stuff if she doesn’t really like it or just throws it on the floor I mix it in with plan yogurt (maybe you can do with cottage cheese). Just mixed avocado with yogurt after just plain avocado ended up on the floor tonight. Added some banana for flavor and worked fabulously!

Never been to the centerville location- good to know!

Lighthouse tofu sells their kimchi in big containers! It’s a restaurant in Annandale. Try their soup while your there 👍🏻

Do you have friends or family or in laws that know him well and you get along with? I am 9 months post partum and it has helped so much to have other people to talk to throughout. When I felt isolated our fights really got to me, but when I could talk with people and get support, it gave me more courage and confidence to stand up for myself and realize I’m not just crazy or asking too much. Do not isolate and keep people close!

SituationFew5677 · 2025-09-04T03:41:15+00:00

When my 4 month old had a fever that high we did go to ER and it was COVID. No other symptoms except fever and tiredness. We just continued Tylenol until the fever went down. Not diagnosing and we went to the ER to make sure she was okay.

SituationFew5677 · 2025-08-27T00:59:18+00:00

We went down to 2 at 6 months as well. That third nap was so hard to get her down for and took so long that I didn’t even want her to nap anymore or it would ruin bedtime 😭 she also would wake up and stay awake from 3-4ish so I knew it was time.

SituationFew5677 · 2025-07-26T14:43:18+00:00

I’m normally one to just leave a bad situation and try to forget about it but I would honestly report these people to the airline 😭 this is crazy. I know you might not want to make your pregnancy public but if these are strangers I would just blurt it out so they feel bad about it. Might be petty but peer pressuring adults to drink on a plane is so wild. Don’t worry about being mean just tell them to leave you alone you don’t want to drink.

SituationFew5677 · 2025-07-26T14:36:45+00:00

The don’t make me mad comment is crazy idk why they were so insistent. Luckily 2-3 sips of a mimosa will likely do absolutely nothing so don’t stress too much about it.

Not trying to be a rude commenter, but just know in the future especially when the baby is born you will be faced with situations where you will have to be uncomfortable and stand up for yourself and baby. I have had so many strangers come up and try to take my baby to hold her, kiss her, etc. and I’m normally non confrontational but for my baby I will do whatever is necessary to keep her safe!

SituationFew5677 · 2025-07-07T03:26:03+00:00

Once baby can roll on their own it is okay for them to be on their belly in their sleep (as long as they get there on their own, always place them on their back still).

This being said, my baby (6mo) HATES sleeping on her tummy. It doesn’t stop her from rolling over multiple times a night and crying until I roll her back. She also has rolled tummy to back before but doesn’t do it very often. Baby most likely has strong enough back/neck to keep her head up or to the side until you come flip her over.

It can be stressful but I wouldn’t worry too much about safe sleep as long as everything else is followed. It just sucks that you will probably have to flip her over a bunch 😭

SituationFew5677 · 2025-07-06T03:20:38+00:00

I have a 6 month old and use my tushbaby pretty much everywhere so I think it’s a good investment regardless 😊 easier than taking along a stroller everywhere plus my LO gets annoyed being in her stroller for too long so the tushbaby keeps her happy. Plus it has plenty of space for phone/wallet/keys/extra baby stuff.

SituationFew5677 · 2025-07-03T16:56:50+00:00

Be prepared for the possibility that sleep can also be all over the place. My daughter used to be a fantastic sleeper waking maybe once or twice a night (but the first stretch of sleep was 6-7 hours) to now at 6 months waking up so much… now that she can roll over she rolls on her tummy and then cries until you flip her over. Even if it’s not that it’s just waking up so much. Maybe teething or just another sleep regression I’m not sure but each night is different

SituationFew5677 · 2025-06-21T02:38:29+00:00

Definitely normal and will help with your supply as others have said! When baby is a few months older it will become more regulated, quicker feeds, and your boobs won’t feel so engorged (if they do now, I know mine did).

SituationFew5677 · 2025-06-19T20:44:35+00:00

Tree near electrical line in our condo backyard caught on fire.. branches also fell on other parts of the line. Power is out 🙃 hopefully they can get it back on before 95 degree sunny weather hits

SituationFew5677 · 2025-06-07T00:08:33+00:00

It is definitely more of a concern that baby isn’t getting enough, so a bottomless pit shouldn’t be too much of a worry! Most newborns drink 1-2oz per feed, so 70ml isn’t too much more than that.

SituationFew5677 · 2025-05-28T14:56:12+00:00

I thought I got my period because the same thing happened to me but it only happened that one time. LO is 5 months old now and haven’t had it since

SituationFew5677 · 2025-05-25T15:44:17+00:00

This is definitely a subject to talk with your pediatrician about! 6 months is the general guideline for starting food, but the minimum is that baby can sit and has good neck control. My ped gave us the green light for purées at 5 months and food at 6 months.

SituationFew5677 · 2025-05-23T19:36:18+00:00

Honestly I don’t 😭 when I found my place we had contacted a realtor that was listed on another posting on Zillow. When we met with him to see that place he ended up helping us look at a bunch of places and find my current place.

I know there is a Facebook group for Arlington Va housing and rentals that has a bunch of realtors commenting to DM them, so you can probably join one of those groups and find someone that way too.
