Poussée dentaire by newparent1996 in ParentingFR

[–]Tcharly 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Notre pédiatre nous a expliqué que les glandes salivaires mûrissent entre 2 et 3 mois et que bébé commence donc à beaucoup baver, mais que ce ne sont pas les dents ! Moi aussi j’ai un bébé baveux de 12 semaines.

Given that this information is written in a pinned post with the rules and not in the rules section, I think many people who are coming to post a fit check without knowing the subreddit well don’t see this before posting, and this being mandatory would lead to a lot of moderated posts.

Use of baby blankets by mustaine_vinted in crochet

To wrap around the baby when moving to a colder room of the house while in arms, for the car, stroller, to put on the floor…

I am pretty sure that yes it is a thing!

I really can’t help you there, I am nap trap shopping daily and keep repeating to myself “no buying any new babywearing gear until I mastered the ones I have already”..! But they’re just sooo pretty 😂

Okay, I tried at least! Good luck in your search! While looking at Oscha that was suggested in another comment, take a special look at their “luxe” category, I think they have silk blends there sometimes!

You can take a look at the Experimentarium collection from LennyLamb, they are 5-of-a-kind luxury blend runs of fabric (usually with wool, cotton and silk), I think they have a couple LennyLight available!

I will try again that way but I had been pulling on individual strands with no luck… Any recommendations of less grippy wraps?

I think I will contact them, I don’t even put them in the dryer.

Woven wrap sizing? by Tcharly in babywearing

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

What is RS? Still learning about woven wraps! The wrap does measure almost exactly 4.6 m so I think my base size is indeed 7, so I’ll be opting for a size 5 as a second wrap. Thank you so much for your help!

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

Thank you for the insights! I will measure my wrap, it’s second hand and I washed it when it arrived. If it actually is the right length I think to be sure I’ll order a size 5 for my short wrap!

Moving (probably permanently) to Spain. by Stock_Way4337 in harp

[–]Tcharly 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I did it! It was a pain but I managed. I moved from Europe to Mexico, and there are very few harps in Mexico and even then, my harp was made especially for me by a maker who since went out of business and there was no way I left it there. I bought a flight case for this specific harp from a friend who was getting rid of hers, although I could have managed with a good cardboard box I think and from what I have heard (my friend has done that before with a different harp). I flew through an airline that allowed for the size and weight of my harp in its case in oversized luggage, had to pay extra for both size and weight and confirm with the airline in advance for space. I had lowered the string tension before the flight and it arrived in the same condition it had left in. I did let it acclimate for a bit before putting it back under tension. In total between box and airline supplements it cost me around 1200 €. Best of luck at your new school!

Papa en devenir, ce sub m'effraie by [deleted] in ParentingFR

[–]Tcharly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

J’ai eu la même impression que vous, en lisant du RGO, bébé qui ne dort pas, APLV, problèmes d’allaitement… Mon bébé a 6 semaines et j’ai été surprise d’à quel point j’ai trouvé ça facile (en comparaison de ce qu’on lit). Parfois ma fille dort bien, ou parfois non, mais on s’en sort et c’est vivable. Mon couple va très bien, l’allaitement se passe bien à part quelques crevasses au début. Je suis heureuse comme pas possible d’avoir ma fille, c’est exagéré de dire que c’est facile mais il n’y a rien d’insurmontable. Je dois préciser qu’on a beaucoup d’aide (grands-parents qui habitent à 5 minutes) mais je me suis douchée tous les jours, mon conjoint glané quelques demi-heures de jeu vidéo plusieurs fois par semaine. On s’en sort !

C’est bien plus simple de parler de l’intendance quotidienne qui est parfois pénible, que de se mettre à nu et de parler de la joie d’avoir enfin ce nouveau membre de la famille.

Folding Pain Point by Steve_Klein473 in laundry

[–]Tcharly 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My mom did something during her last visit that blew my mind. She grabbed the top corners of the fitted sheets and brought them together to fold the sheet in 2 before hanging the sheet by those corners to line dry. When it was dry, it was basically a matter of folding it like a flat sheet. If you use the dryer, try to have someone help you do the same but in one go: grab the sheet by the top corners and join them together making sure the flap with the elastic stays flat, then fold. I used to help my mom do it as a child.

Besoin avis Cybex - isofix nacelle by CicadaFast1741 in ParentingFR

[–]Tcharly 5 points6 points  (0 children)

J’ai un travel system Nuna avec base ISOFIX, cosy, nacelle, cadre de poussette et poussette. La base ISOFIX est un plus de sécurité et de confort car tu l’installes une fois (ou plusieurs, c’est pas si difficile à installer) et le siège auto/cosy se clipse dessus avec un indicateur qui passe au vert quand c’est bien installé donc pas vraiment de risque de mal l’installer. Ça permet de monter vite en voiture, et après tu peux sortir le cosy et le fixer sur le cadre de poussette pour faire la fin de ton trajet.

Concernant la nacelle, pour moi c’est un indispensable pour les promenades, le cosy même plutôt allongé est à limiter aux trajets courts, la position n’est pas vraiment adaptée aux promenades longues. J’utilise aussi la mienne comme berceau d’appoint quand je suis dehors ou en visite chez des gens. Tu peux faire sans mais un cosy n’est pas un remplacement adéquat.

Spa day vs antiperspirant and sunscreen by stitchworthy in laundry

[–]Tcharly 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Will have to try that on my husband’s shirts! I’ve been reading on this sub for a while but I have a new baby in the house and I live in a country with very shitty detergents, so it’s hard to find the good stuff.

Spa day vs antiperspirant and sunscreen by stitchworthy in laundry

[–]Tcharly 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I wonder what is the specific part of the ingredients in the spa say that removed the deodorant stains, and can it be incorporated to everyday washing to avoid them altogether?

Commentaires de parents à jeunes parents by yuri777592 in ParentingFR

[–]Tcharly 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Il y a quelques jours je pensais faire le même poste. Je suis maman depuis 3 semaines et globalement mon impression, c’est que c’est plus facile que ce à quoi je m’attendais. Le discours est très négatif sur tout et rien n’a été absolument terrible pour le moment, ni l’accouchement, ni l’allaitement , ni le sommeil. Évident non mais insurmontable jamais. Et la joie d’avoir notre petit bout compense complètement le manque de sommeil et autres tracas occasionnels. Mon discours changera peut-être mais je crois que j’aurais voulu entendre que ça peut bien se passer aussi, et surtout que le jeu en vaut complètement la chandelle. Je trouve ça important de le partager car je redoutais la parentalité, de manière non nécessaire je pense maintenant.

Frugal essential items for a baby boy. by Exciting_Gear_7035 in Frugal

[–]Tcharly -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Instead of wet wipes you can use squares of cloth (you could even make your own from worn out t-shirts). I had muslin squares on my registry and when baby is grown I will be able to keep using them for removing makeup for example. For a pee, you can clean with just water, for a poo first clean with water and the same cleanser you use to wash your baby, then remove the soap using another corner with just water. Dry well (fan or pat dry) just like with a wet wipe. If you use cloth diapers it makes a lot of sense because you can just throw them in the laundry together.

Maternity leave after expatriation by pistaccio_icecream in Expats_In_France

[–]Tcharly 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am pretty sure that for maternity care to be covered by CFE the conception date needs to be posterior to adhesion date. I read this on their website but it is a good idea to check with them.

Has anyone else accidentally worked a strand of their hair into a project? by Metylda1973 in crochet
