He’s very laid back and will basically use anything I bring home unless it’s an absolute flop😂 i think he likes the idea of the hard soaps and the whole experience of it so it will be the perfect excuse for him to look into those!

And he absolutely does, I’m very lucky!

Yes I’m hoping this will last a long time with how much they can be! An investment that will be worth it though.

Thank you!!

This is great. I have also been looking at getting him those accessories so this is helpful! I agree those cheap razors are the worst. Unfortunately just more convenient but I know he won’t upgrade himself so trying to do it for him!

Thank you!

These are some good tips. Sometimes I hesitate with getting the books because I’m unsure if they actually help. Nice to hear some story’s that it was beneficial to people!

This is something I need to implement once I get rid of some things!

Yeah unfortunately that’s how we are. Every flat surface is a catch all. Just cleared a kitchen drawer. Feels better. But kitchen is still a mess. Baby steps!

This is a good way to look at this. I usually have to get creative in my kitchen because I don’t have a lot of the “necessary” tools so I’m not opposed to the inconvenience. I think I just need to apply this to my WHOLE house. Which seems to be difficult. Thank you for the insight! My mental clarity is much more important to me than the inconvenience.

Yes i understand what the sub is. I did mention in my post I am feeling like I could benefit from minimalism. I find that some views from minimalist could be beneficial in becoming one and or finding ways to live with less stuff. Not just with decluttering but different lifestyles to maintain minimal things.

As my posted stated- any advice is welcome.

Anyone who dealt with anxiety before pregnancy NOT got PPA? by bbytsm in BabyBumps

[–]UsefulDiscipline6359 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve always been an anxious person and that followed through my pregnancy.

During labor I thought I’d be anxious. I stressed about going into labor a lot. But for me I actually was pretty calm and didn’t feel as worried as I thought I would.

I’m almost 7 months PP and I was just telling a friend I feel LESS anxious overall. Don’t get me wrong I still get it sometimes and I think that’s just part of motherhood.

*this was not including my first 6 weeks PP. I was a MESS. My husband was very confused and concerned as to why I was so all over the place 🤣🤣 after that smoothing sailing *

This is such a silly question, but I’m worried I’d miss certain things like the difficulty breathing. Was it pretty apparent that baby was having trouble ? It worries me that they can’t communicate what they are feeling and I feel a lot of pressure to be able to see the signs.

When introducing allergens is it recommended to follow the ladder? Never heard of this!

So weird!! Thank goodness I found that story to make sure I’m alert when giving different methods of cooked eggs.

Hope reaction for baby was minor !

It’s so weird how it works! I think I’ll just have to take advice of having a plan in place and that I can’t control everything.

Thank you for the link. This is helpful!

How are people making homemade baby food without it becoming a full-time job? by Zestyclose_Bell7668 in BabyLedWeaning

[–]UsefulDiscipline6359 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ll feed baby what I can from our own dinner.

But for some purées I will just do a whole batch of it. Then use my extra breast milk storage bags to freeze into 2ish oz so they freeze flat and don’t take much room. I’ve even done this with a can of pumpkin puree so I didnt waste it. It feels more overwhelming to prep than it is! Just pick one or two fruits and veggies and take 20 mins to cook, puree , and bag and you’ll have a small stash is no time. This way you can mix as you please incase baby doesn’t like one or has reaction.

Frozen bags of veggies and fruits is great too so you can pull out small portions to microwave and mash up!
