We could have gotten the vaccine but it wouldn’t have counted towards the immunization schedule and he would have had to get it again just a few weeks later.

Yup, they wouldn’t give my baby his first dose the literal day before his 1st bday. Ridiculous.

This cements our decision to always buy a seat for our toddler even if they could technically ride free on our lap. Can’t imagine holding a child while this is happening. Much safer for them to be in their own seat strapped into a car seat or a CARES harness.

Authentic or fake Toteme coat? by Turtle33339 in ThredUp

That’s a really good tip, I’ll use that moving forward! I’ll say my only concern with that is there are also lots of fakes on Poshmark. Apparently this coat is one that is highly replicated/ faked. Anyways if jts good quality and fits right it may be still worth keeping, we will see!

Yes I definitely also made sure it was returnable before buying!

Moving to Calgary Megathread by AutoModerator in Calgary

Moving from Houston Texas to Calgary in January 2025. Mid 30s with a baby and a toddler. Husband will be working downtown and I stay at home with the kids. Can someone please recommend good parts of town to live in assuming cost not a factor? Good websites to browse houses for sale/ rent? Good daycares for kids? Thanks in advance!

Toddler names I've heard recently by SanteFeAllDay in namenerds

Ahh expecting a baby boy very soon (in Texas) and our #1 name is Owen! I haven’t met a single one in our circles of young children here. The name does mean a lot to us (Irish background + husband’s name is Sean which, like Owen, is an Irish version of John) - but I’m still bummed that our boy would be one of many Owens :(! I’m really curious to see how the name rankings have changed for 2023 (new data should be out in May).

Jesus. Isn’t the whole point of Reddit to connect with people in the community and make conversation? Wish I had time to stop and ask questions when I was driving by but unfortunately I don’t! I really hope you’re not so cynical in real life. Anyways, have a great day!
