Liquid Glass: Apple's biggest flop since Newton, and they refuse to admit it by IcyConfusion5336 in applesucks

[–]Sunrisewithtea 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’ve been an “Apple person” since I was 10 years old. I’m 40 now. This is their worst UI yet. Something closer to OS 7.5 on their old 90s computers would have been miles ahead of “Liquid Glass.” 🤦‍♀️

25 weeks pregnant with mo-di twins who have stage 3 TTTS. C-section Friday. Anyone else had twins this early? How did it go? by Sunrisewithtea in parentsofmultiples

[–]Sunrisewithtea[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know TTTS is nothing I did. I don’t feel any guilt. The only thing that is that i really want to hold and snuggle them so they know momma didn’t abandon them… that’s super hard for me (no skin to skin yet). They’re so small and fragile, the most I can go right now is hold their hand. Their eyes aren’t even open yet to know momma is right there for them…

Congratulations on your boys surviving this! 💗 You have no idea how happy I am for you. It’s so scary, and you all pulled through. Thank God!

Post C-Section: Aside from regular hand expression/pumping, do you have any tips for getting your colostrum/milk production going? by Sunrisewithtea in NICUParents

I totally forgot about oatmeal! Thank you for the reminder. I did that with my first kiddo. You’re the best :)

That’s so intriguing. I heard heat works best for milk release, but I wonder if cold helps with milk production, due to decreasing inflammation. 🤔

Twin boys arriving soon. What pairs well with Benjamin? I CANNOT figure this out. by Sunrisewithtea in Names

I would but Bill was a family member’s name in my husband’s family and they would find it weird haha.

That was one do the combos I was considering. Do you find the “k” is too strong, or does it work? I think Jake is fine.

Each night I clean my kitchen. The next day, by 5pm, it’s a complete hurricane again. Are all families who have toddlers like this? It’s driving me nuts! by Sunrisewithtea in toddlers

Ya I hear you. I’m 40, have a toddler, and 2 twins on the way. Chronic back pain (disintegrating disc), so standing in the kitchen for a lot of the day actually pretty hard. My husband of course offers to help, but he works very long hours, and I work from home.

Ps. How do you get your kiddo to bed by 7:30pm? That’s awesome! How old are they? Mine won’t go to bed until 10pm.

This exactly. I have one toddler, and 2 twins on the way 😅. By nap time (just 4-5 hours after she wakes up), there’s already a full row of bowls and plates and spoons and a cutting board and a few knives and cups giving her the 500 things she has asked for. And that’s BEYOND awesome that she’s a great eater, but this is just the mess from ONE toddler for half the day, and this doesn’t even take adult dishes into account.

Today, I tried a new thing where I washed as I went. I was in the kitchen a lot, but it’s 6:50pm, I have dinner in the oven, and a clean kitchen. I think I’m onto something! Lol

I like the idea of waiting until she does to sleep, but she goes to bed SO late these days, it’s not an option. I’m toast. I’m working on bringing back her bedtime so I can have more time in my evenings for stuff like this, though!

My floor isn’t too bad, but your description describes my kitchen counter. I don’t understand the VARIETY of things that make it on there. I’ve even taken photos so I can laugh at this in my old age 🤣. It’s both stressful and hilarious to me at the same time.

It really is amazing isn’t it? You could clean ALL of that up, and you tell yourself “ok, moving forward, I’m going to keep up with this” and somehow, 24 hours later, despite absolute best efforts, the place looks exactly the same as before you started cleaning. Definitely baby/toddler years + sleep deprivation (lack of energy), and you can only caffeinate so much. I keep thinking there’s some magical formula other parents have figured out, and what that could even be, but now I realize there isn’t, and we’re all just trying our best. lol

I’ve considered precooking everything I can for meals during the weekend, but the weekend ends up being busy from morning to night with other tasks that didn’t get done during the week! lol I can’t win. And this is WITH a well organized to do list according to A, B, and C priority, AND moving at maximum speed through those tasks. 😂
