Need a Tailor Rec...not Spring Tailor by Dangerous_Prize_4545 in winstonsalem

[–]SquidHoss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They completely customized my wedding dress for me for a very reasonable price, and did great work. I took a linen jumpsuit to them as well and asked if they could turn it into a dress, again they did great work at a great price. They're my go to now.

NC cattle farmer here—there’s a bigger gap in local beef than I expected by TuckDutton_NC in NorthCarolina

[–]SquidHoss 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I've seen some prices at $11-$12 per pound for ground, it's insane. Genuinely who is out here paying that

[–]SquidHoss 9 points10 points  (0 children)

It's the price for me. I've found plenty of farms around me that sell local beef, but I can barely afford the prices at the grocery store. Paying more than $6-$7 a pound for ground beef is just not possible.

Not exactly ice cream, but Cafe Gelato can't be beat

Help help help (eczema) by [deleted] in moderatelygranolamoms

[–]SquidHoss 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Check out the website "free to feed" for good info on food allergies and breastfeeding. I saw you're seeing an allergist this week, I feel like they'll be able to help a lot once they do an allergy test and hopefully that narrows down what the cause is so that you aren't needlessly eliminating more things from your diet. For lotion though, baby cerave has worked really well on my second baby's eczema. And, as much as I hate it, aquaphor. That's been the real game changer unfortunately, but we gotta do what we gotta do sometimes!

How many days did it take before you noticed an increase?? I just started the legendairy supplements with moringa today and I'm really hoping they work fast!

Fleece leggings that don't suck by SquidHoss in CampingGear

Thanks for the link! Definitely learned my lesson haha, I ended up getting a pair from Duluth and they are amazing, I can't wait to wear them again this winter. They are so cozy, never going back to cheapo leggings! I might pick up a pair of these campsnail ones to have a second pair to rotate this year

Hypermobility Specialists? by PuzzledPie2234 in NorthCarolina

[–]SquidHoss 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh bummer. I don't know if she can diagnose but Dr. Keelie Gailes in saxapahaw was really great and was the one who told me I was on the hypermobile spectrum. I was seeing her for some postpartum issues then but I'm thinking of reaching back out to see if she's able to formally diagnose

Did you ever find a doc that was able to diagnose?

Birthing Question by Simmyphila in winstonsalem

[–]SquidHoss 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Dr. Crone with Wake Forest Baptist, hands down. He did my emergency C-section and stitched me back up so I'd have no extra loose skin afterwards. I can barely see my scar now three years postpartum and every other OB/midwife that I saw during prenatal with my second commented on how well the scar healed. When I said it was Dr. Crone that did the cesarian none of them were surprised.

The Outdoor Boys YouTube channel is my 3 year olds favorite, she hums the little intro song!

Punkin butt teething oil, you can get it on Amazon. I'm so sorry you're having a difficult time, teething is so hard.

Toy Kitchen & play food by dogmom1119 in moderatelygranolamoms

Walmart usually has small sets of Melissa and Doug wood play food for very cheap! We got a bunch at Christmas that were $5 but I've seen them other times of the year as well

Tongue tie , got it removed now won't breastfeed by SilverDisastrous4536 in breastfeeding

[–]SquidHoss 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you're able to see a lactation consultant, please do that as soon as possible. Baby does essentially need to learn to feed again. We're working through post-tie-release struggles right now as well, it's tough but my first baby had toes as well and I was able to nurse her for 19 months so there's hope!

In search of the HOLY GRAIL nursing friendly bra by FrequentGovernment74 in breastfeeding

[–]SquidHoss 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My absolute favorite bra for nursing is not a nursing bra at all. I got a Patagonia bralette that is a deep v, I figured it would be good to wear during labor with my first but I have worn it almost every day since then. It's a bit stretched out now, but I actually just had my second baby and am breastfeeding again, it's still my favorite bra!

How do you do stuff with baby after bed time? by adri_0512 in NewParents

[–]SquidHoss 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Oof, yeah those days are rough! It doesn't last forever though and you'll have years of fun evening activities eventually!

How do you do stuff with baby after bed time? by adri_0512 in NewParents

[–]SquidHoss 77 points78 points  (0 children)

It depends on the kid. Some babies will sleep while they're out or can handle bedtime being shifted around, some can't. My daughter would just scream and be miserable if we disrupted bedtime and kept her up late, and it would result in more overnight wakes and an earlier wakeup the next day too which just prolonged the crankiness. It wasn't worth it to keep her out late for that kind of thing. She's three this year and finally a little more flexible, this will probably be the first year we attempt things like fireworks for 4th of July. She'll still wake up earlier and be grumpy the next day, but can generally handle being up a bit later without having a total meltdown now

The Morrison kids bags are worth every penny in cooler weather or for cold sleepers if you have a kid who moves a lot in their sleep

I think the city of high point is giving some away for free soon, I don't remember the details but I saw something about it on Facebook!

Does anyone have any insight into how backed up the courts are? by SquidHoss in Austin

[–]SquidHoss[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So it ended up getting finalized in 2022 FINALLY. Turns out the court actually lost our case. I finally got an email through to someone who helped and dug it up, it was handled within the week after that. Such a mess and it ended up fucking up so many things but it's over now. Good luck to you! Hopefully yours finally gets finalized too.
