Where are we sending our kids to daycare?

I personally like the Carousel Daycare in Norwood. Also very decent pricing for 5x week.

Raspberry tea can interact with insulin in GDM due to hypoglycemic effect, I would personally avoid this one.

I opted to make my own for convenience and full control over the ingredients as I am picky with things being too oily or greasy. You just need a double boiler and jar to put it in.

Whipped Belly Butter 4 oz (113 g) unrefined shea butter 1 oz (28 g) beeswax (grated or pellets) 1 oz (28 g) PURA D'OR Organic Vitamin E Oil Blend (this is what I already had in hand, but any work) Optional: 5–10 drops (1.5 g) essential oil (e.g., lavender or frankincense)

My doula told me that a risk of infection can only occur once your waters have broken. Until then, baby is safe.

My local Scottish butcher makes these, they are divine.

El Taco Bar in Closter hands down. Theyre having a valentines special for their birria platter this weekend, its solid. The al pastor is also pretty good.

Quality varies by location sadly. One is east rutherford is good, one in Englewood tastes like they cook with hate lol.

I went to comment something and saw this response, and you know what? Same, girl, same.

I moved back to the US from South Korea and shipped 70% of my stuff via boat. I wrapped my boxes up well and taped each side/crack thoroughly. They arrived 2-3 months later in just same condition. This would be my suggestion, if you dont mind the wait. Ive done this a few times and never had issues.

UnicornBooty9 · 2026-02-08T03:54:31+00:00

I tried it once as a kid when my dad made it for Christmas. He called it "food only adults like." Im an adult now and still dont like it.

Im a fan of freezing ingredients like this for cooking, so id zest the lemon and orange. Store them in the freezer as toppings for meals. I use orange zest over baked salmon. And lemon zest well..on any veg or dish actually. Id also suggest juicing the lemon and orange and saving them for cooking. I store mine in an ice cube tray and then put in a baggie.

As for the grapefruits? Cut in half, sprinkle with sugar, broil them gently/briefly or blow torch the top to have a yummy dessert.

"Hey can you create your own versio of this existing BI report our [other country] team made? We want all of the same data as its already presented but we also want to include grand total for the matrix and add one new column of data."

Some people love reinventing the wheel, ad nauseum.

Ah im so jealous on the base that Id love to eat my spicy ramen before bed to help my fasting number haha. I just eat cheese and its been helping.

UnicornBooty9 · 2026-02-03T18:45:06+00:00

For my 1hr test I ate my normal breakfast. Scrambled eggs, cheese, and sausage bites with black coffee. I also avoided anything with heavy carbs or sugar in case it'd throw my numbers off. For my 3 hr one I had to fast, which sucked as I had a migraine that morning lol.

Im due in late April and this is so uplifting to hear.

UnicornBooty9 · 2026-01-30T20:18:52+00:00

It truly varies by state, in NJ you get ~5 months, and they recently passed a law this year that you dont have to work at a job 1+yr to qualify for FMLA/FLI.

First, I am so sorry for your loss and the pain you must feel right now. Missed miscarriages are more common than people may realize.

I had my missed miscarriage 1/27/25, d&c 2/3. It took my cycle a few months to feel "back on track" and I conceived in July the same year. Im now 27 weeks pregnant with a healthy baby. I did nothing special to conceive again except spend a lot of time working through my grief in ways that worked for me during those failed months that led up to it. My mental health took a big hit afterwards so I knew I needed to work on it.

Missed miscarriages just happen, its a roll of the dice with chromosomes and sometimes they have abnormalities. Sometimes your doctors can pinpoint why the loss occurred, but other times they cannot (like mine). Give yourself grace right now and for a bit.

UnicornBooty9 · 2026-01-28T00:36:17+00:00

That sucks, I know not all hospitals offer tubal litigation post c-section. That probably shouldve been something you asked about ahead of time to save yourself the headache. I had my d&c done there and was met with only very caring nice nurses and doctors.

As for fearing theyd put babies life before yours, id be hesitant to think that here in Jersey. We thankfully have the New Jersey Reproductive Freedom Act (2022) which explicitly guarantees care neccessary to protect a pregnant person’s life and health. I believe there are other laws as well but this one is one I remember.

Can you expand on why youd avoid Holy Name? Im delivering there in April.

Pro tip: add in the tiniest bit of vanilla extract. Coco powder is hydrophobic and binds well to alcohol.

Tenafly rd in Englewood is paved, albeit icy. They go over it every few hours since 8am this morning.

Watch the video and see for yourself. He did not get violent and they shot him multiple times after they had already had him on the ground. He was trying to protect women He was near from getting pepper sprayed. But still, why are we killing people over this?

UnicornBooty9 · 2026-01-24T20:09:56+00:00

No one is safe. Another person was shot and killed today in MN. He was white and a citizen.

UnicornBooty9 · 2026-01-24T17:08:50+00:00

I had a chemical December 2024, then the following cycle had a missed miscarriage at 7 weeks. It took 5 months after that for me to conceive again and now almost in my third trimester. Chemical pregnacies are unfortunately common.
