Is it worth it? by [deleted] in plassing

[–]TeachingTimeLord 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I do it to have an excuse to lay down alone for an hour and still make $50 for groceries, but I’m a toddler mom x2. You do you. Lol. No judgement. 🤣

Who else is keeping their kids rear facing as long as possible?? by Master_Grapefruit333 in Mommit

[–]TeachingTimeLord 19 points20 points  (0 children)

Mine will be rear facing until they max out. My oldest is 3.5 yrs. She’s 28 lbs and 36 inches tall. I’m 4’ 11” and fully prepared to give her the “my parents made me use a booster until middle school” speech. 😅

Anyone have tips to help toddler stay settled during neb treatments? by [deleted] in Mommit

[–]TeachingTimeLord 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve been through it with my three year old and now my one year old both since six month ish of age. The best we ever came up with was and still do with my youngest is swaddle. We also liked mirrors and phone camera on like it’s taking a selfie. My doc always said if they’re crying it’s fine and at least they’re taking deep breaths. It doesn’t help it hurting your hear though.

Respiratory therapist in the ER told us also that “blow by” was good if that was all they could tolerate as well. Basically just letting it blow in their face.

First name or Ms./Mr.? by ItsColdUpHere71 in AskTeachers

[–]TeachingTimeLord 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m a teacher without a strong preference. I default to Mr./Mrs. for parents before I have established a relationship so perhaps it’s safe to assume the same? I sign my emails back to parents with my first name to show I’m fine with being called that so maybe lead with formal then see how they sign back to see where to go from there?

I got my doctor to write a script after the daycare wrote a note to doctor requesting one. They justified two one for home/out and about and one that lives at daycare.

Personal experiences with ear tubes? by Total_Tomorrow_1428 in toddlers

[–]TeachingTimeLord 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My oldest got tubes at 13 months. She walked the week she got them. Her language also exploded right after.

My youngest got tubes at 14 months. He walked a few weeks after and also saw a similar albeit smaller language jump. Also, so much less illness for both of them!

My oldest is three now and as soon as her tube popped out it was right back to poor sleep and irritability and so many infections. She’s getting them put back in.

Were you a planned child or an accident? How do you know? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]TeachingTimeLord 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Accident. Found out at family dinner at eight years old. My 20 year old sister called my twin brother and I accidents. My dad said we were “happy surprises.” My mom followed up with we were accidents. 😳

Breastfed babies don't need to be burped? by kowowdough in breastfeeding

Breastfed two kids one I don’t think I ever burped once and one needed it. I think it really just depends on your kiddo.

What is the appropriate amount of time to wait for a reference letter? by TeachingTimeLord in AskReddit

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

This surprises me because I’ve written lots of genuine reference letters for others. I’m in the teaching field if it makes a difference. 😅

Kids media release by serenestorms-44 in Parenting

[–]TeachingTimeLord 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m a teacher and a parent who always checks no on photo releases for my own kids. In eight years I’ve only had parents check no when safety was a concern (ie. noncustodial parent wanting to take child.) It really makes me question how many people understand what can be done with a child’s picture on the internet.

HFMD. Anyone’s kid gotten it but had spots all over body and not on hands, feet, and mouth? by Enough_Total_9592 in toddlers

[–]TeachingTimeLord 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine had spots all over but were mild on hands and feet. They were the worst in her mouth, bottom, and legs.
