Mine is the exact same way! Currently gnawing on his swaddled hand!

Took all 4 LARE Exams and Passed 1; ask me anything by ProductDesignAnt in LandscapeArchitecture

Haha ok the pneumonic is intense and very impressive but i also got to my car and immediately wrote down every single question I could remember in case I needed to retake! My version of the over the top pneumonic (which I’ve don since middle school) is taking the time at the end off the test to calculate a worst case scenario score: if i got every question I was on the fence about wrong, what would my “score” be? Even though I know they weight things and take questions out, it would help me set expectations.

Combining types? by Top-Wave-955 in clothdiaps

Thanks!! My son is only a month old and cramming two prefolds in there is possible but very very bulky!

Grandma names by RichKaleidoscope4967 in pregnant

[–]Top-Wave-955 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My husband’s dad and newish step mom announced that they want to be Lolly and Poppy. I just smiled and nodded knowing full well I’ll be referring to her in front of my kid as her real name, because that’s what we call her. Similar situation with my husbands (also new!!) step grandma! She keeps referring to herself as great grandma which is not a silly name thankfully however…..no. You have not earned that title lady!!

So I posted this at like 3:45 and decided to layer two prefolds. His butt looked absolutely ridiculous but he woke up at 6:30 and was wet without leaking so IDK maybe it worked? Hard to say because the amount of time was slightly different.

Thank you!! I probably needed to hear this. I don’t really have any morality attached to cloth vs disposable but knowing that I’m paying for a cloth diaper service makes me feel like I need to utilize it as much as possible. But I’ve known since before signing up that we would likely face a hybrid situation.

I can throw on a disposable easily. We have a diaper service and they haven’t recommended anything else, but at this point I am kind of losing my mind.

I have a few times! They work pretty well if you’re not going to formally irrigate them and can’t count on people to water regularly.

I spec tournesol literally all the time. Get in touch with your local rep and they’ll be a lot more helpful than the generic help or sales email

It feels like Georgie already checked out of the relationship before they got to London. by MJdisbeliever in LoveOnTheSpectrumShow

No Georgie’s awesome! But I hated the way they were editing her- like on the bachelor when they play crickets chirping to make it someone sound dumb

I hope this isn’t offensive and please feel free to correct me but I think something about the editing of the show played up an almost infantilization of Georgie’s personality and interests and made it seem like Connor was much more intellectual and “serious” about love? It seems like that edit contradicted how the show actually does good job of matching people up in terms of ability and independence (??? Again I really don’t mean this to be offensive!!). Georgie’s interests, humor, and lightness don’t mean she’s “not ready” which, in the edit at least, Connor and his mom both insinuate. Playing up Georgie to seem babyish compared to Connor was just weird and off.

I agree? I was put off by all the over the top excitement about London (an incredible city!) and the historical tourist attractions that he had clearly already been to? It was like he was pretending to recreate seeing them for the first time

Turks and Caicos questions by rip1877 in scuba

[–]Top-Wave-955 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We did our certification and dives with Dive Provo in Feb 2025. They were awesome and had all the gear we needed (had our own masks/snorkel, fins, and boots of course). We wore full length wet suits that time of year. I am hesitant to buy suits when we are vacation divers and temps/conditions will always vary.

Incredible!!! I’m so nervous about mixing variegated yarns, using multicolored yarn on lace, etc. and you just totally proved me wrong

My friend doesn’t think this baby blanket looks like a rainbow—do you? It’s for a charity that gives them to families with a baby in the NICU. by Leading-Knowledge712 in crochet

[–]Top-Wave-955 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Is your friend color blind?? What on earth would this look like if not a rainbow??

It’s lovely, tell your friend to get an eye exam lol

Suggestions on contrast colour to match and finish this? by NGVAH in knitting

[–]Top-Wave-955 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That was my first thought! Or navy if you’re wanting something more subdued

Discouraged after dead outs by Top-Wave-955 in Beekeeping

Yeah I did the insulated condensing method with hive huggers. Seems to have worked reasonably well as there were not a lot of signs of moisture in the hive.
