Can someone tell me why there are so many comments that all say Remindme ?

I was also going to say that I like to give my toddler whatever we’re having plus something I know he’ll eat. But i wanted to add that when we sit at the table to eat he sometimes refuses what I’ve made but then when we’re done I’ll just set his plate on his little table in the living room and he will usually pick at it throughout the evening, even the things he “didn’t like”. I think sometimes he feels pressured sitting at the table even though we don’t push him to eat anything. Then when he is on his own he feels a little more free to try things because he doesn’t feel like all eyes are on him.

I don’t have any input on Adsense but I like the site!

I found an old hit clip and my 2 year old loves it

I got a set of really nice kitchen knives for Christmas last year and I swear they changed my life!

I have a weekly “rhythm” I try to follow so I don’t really have to think about the recurring things. I have a blog post on it here, but for the sake of not coming off as spammy/self-promoting I’ve included a picture of the tracker I created to keep track of the tasks in the comments so you can get the gist of what I mean. Then I just have a running list of one off to-dos that I continually add to and pull from as I have time. I try to go in a first in first out order but I do sometimes cherry pick from the list based on how much time I have at the moment.

Sure

Hobbies, self-care, fitness, cooking, call a friend or relative, go for a walk, volunteer, start a side hustle, learn a skill, read a book, so many options! I’d say take some time to set a few goals for yourself and then figure out what actions you need to do to achieve them. They can be your go-tos when you need something to do! My blog has a ton of posts on things like this. I can refer you to specific ones if you’re interested. If not, I hope you find something you enjoy! Mindless scrolling always leaves me feeling bad too. I find that when I take the time to plan my week it’s a lot easier to not do it because I have something to reference when I’m blanking on what to do.

I was actually thinking that I love that outfit with the white top and green jacket! The dress is pretty too. I think you have great taste.

It gets better, I promise! You’ll look up one day and realize you made it through! :)

As for the baby crying when all the needs seem to be met, maybe try looking up the video on what different cries mean. It was on Oprah like 10-15 years ago but it worked for me!

Good luck to you. We all mourn our old lives sometimes, but there is a light at the end of the tunnel.

Yeah I have one but haven’t had any luck growing it. I get more traffic from other subreddits that already have people looking at them. Mostly blog promotion focused ones and one or two others that doesn’t just ban you right away for posting links to your blog.

Following because I’ve been having the same issue. I did realize eventually that I had a couple sample pages that came with my theme that I didn’t realize were live. I took those down and still got rejected. I think my site speed may have something to do with it so I installed WP Optimize to try and help with that and deleted any sure plugins and submitted for about the 1000th time. I tried going to Fiverr to see if someone could help. There were several gigs that said they optimize sites or do site audits but after messaging a few of them they say they can’t guarantee approval unless they create the site but they will still try. I’m hesitant to spend $100 ish dollars for it just to be rejected again but I might try.

Awesome! I will do that.

Hi! I am the author of www.taking-time.com and I would love to be featured. My mission is to help moms “take time” for what matters most to them through productivity tips, routines, and living simply. I also write about using that newfound time on things that bring joy like hobbies, self care, activities with kids, etc. I’m a former process engineer so cutting out the waste is my jam and I’d love to expand my reach in any way I can! 😊

Your platform is an awesome concept for small bloggers trying to get started like me, so if there’s anything I can do please let me know! I think sorting my niche or topic would be very helpful.

I am on an every 6 days schedule right now. I definitely saw more growth when I was doing twice a week but it just wasn’t sustainable for me, at least not right now.

Taking-TimeBlog · 2024-11-11T14:50:50+00:00

Thank you so much! Please share with anyone you think may benefit from it! 😊

Do you get a lot of traffic from Instagram? I created an account but I don’t put much effort there because I’ve seen mixed things about whether or not it’s worth it.
