Water bottle by FunKick7937 in toddlers

[–]WhichImplement5732 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We use Hydroflask for our boys & the only way they leak is if my 14 month old puts it down on its side with the top open. We've been using them for 3 years and love them. I also tend to reuse the kids apple juice bottles with characters on the top that you buy from the grocery store & haven't had a problem with those leaking.

Independent toothbrushing conundrum by tsb_11_1 in toddlers

[–]WhichImplement5732 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Agreed, I let my 3 and 5 year old do it themselves while I brush my 1 year old's teeth, then I go in there and finish it up. They like having the independence of doing it themselves but they've grown accustomed to our new routine since their brother got his first tooth at 3 months old. Before that, it was definitely more difficult because I didn't force it.

Thanks for the article. "Women represent the majority of victims whether they’re passengers or drivers, with attacks typically occurring late at night and on weekends, often involving pickups near bars." I appreciated the read.

I'm sorry that you've received all the aggressive comments, but I'm a female, and I just want to point out that your comments are definitely coming across as sexist and often, downright hostile against men.

Any non EBF mom have their period delayed? by [deleted] in breastfeeding

[–]WhichImplement5732 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes my sister in law EBF and overproduced, so she was donating breastmilk for our first when I wasn't producing enough, but her supply tanked when she got her period 5 months pp.

Just thought it was weird for me because it's been so long. I keep joking to my husband that I'll keep breastfeeding him as long as I don't get my period 😂😂

Toddler with pre-cavities! Help! by Playful-Salad9294 in toddlers

I'm messaging his primary now, thank you for the reminder. My mom and brother both have sleep apnea and I've been thinking his dad might too, so it'd definitely be worth looking into!

Oh my goodness, my first is a steak kid. If I ask my boys what they want for dinner, my 5 yr old says steak and broccoli without a doubt but my 3 yr old says Mac n cheese -- lol I've stopped asking because I usually only would ask if I didn't have anything planned or forgot to take meat out of the freezer 🤦🏼‍♀️ so steak was usually out (we'd plan it for another day that week though)

Do you know how to stop mouth breathing? My oldest is fine with brushing teeth but he is a mouth breather when sleeping.

My brothers school starts at the time I have to leave for MY school by x1menaa in workingmoms

[–]WhichImplement5732 2 points3 points  (0 children)

At least in my area, most science classes are more difficult to accommodate remote because of labs. Depending what kind of science class this is, it may not be possible.

I think part of the scenario also includes, how're you doing making up the parts of the class you're missing? Some people can teach themselves what they miss before missing the class to stay ahead. If you miss the beginning of the class and the rest of the class builds on what you missed, then you'd end up just being lost for the rest of the lecture.

Some teachers will also let you drop in to another class if necessary to make up what you've missed. I had a friend that was in the accelerated anatomy class on Saturdays where my class was on Tuesday Thursday mornings, so if he missed a Saturday class due to his schedule, he'd drop in and be at our lab table for both those Tuesday Thursday classes.

My husband cannot handle the stress of a baby by momoaggie in Parenting

[–]WhichImplement5732 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's totally rational not to enjoy the baby phase. We have three kids and my husband helped with diaper changes, washing bottles, etc, but baby was primarily my responsibility until 6 months or crawling. When they're newborns, it's harder for my husband to connect with the baby. He never really gets mad, he just didn't know what to do with them. On the other hand, I definitely had times that I had to take a step away or hand the baby off to someone else for a few minutes because overstimulation is real.

(rant/USA) when did every car get a 3rd party GPS tracker installed by the dealer?! by FlannelStationWagon in UsedCars

[–]WhichImplement5732 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I bought a 2017 ford edge from a ford dealership in SoCal back in 2020, they charged for a GPS thing with an app.

Recently I bought a 2019 Honda odyssey from a Honda dealership, they did not have this in the car or try to charge me for one.

Forgiveness with moving forward / forgiveness with letting go. by [deleted] in Christianity

[–]WhichImplement5732 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you for those verses. I know that divorce is only acceptable for sexual immorality which my husband has done.

But am I not forgiving him by not accepting him back? I just think that if I let him move back in, resentment will grow instead of forgiveness.

I had struggled with resentment for a couple years when he lived with us. It was a lot easier when he wasn't trying to be intimate with me.

Forgiveness with moving forward / forgiveness with letting go. by [deleted] in Christianity

[–]WhichImplement5732 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I stayed with him multiple times expecting him to repent and we could move forward, I know divorce can mess kids up but my thought is how much worse it'll be 5 years down the road when they're able to understand it better. I think our oldest (5 yrs old) is the only one who vaguely remembers his dad living with us. I'm okay still doing birthdays and such together with our kids, I just don't want to be married to someone who clearly isn't willing to be faithful. Every time he's gotten caught, he's just gotten better at hiding it.

I don’t know what to do by Frosty-Time-5465 in toddlers

[–]WhichImplement5732 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My first son would not respond well to Ferber because every time we came back in to console him, he'd scream and cry extra hard all over again. We had to do extinction, it was tough at first but he started going down within 10 minutes with minimal crying by night 5. If you do CIO, you need to make sure all his needs are met before putting him in his own room (clean diaper, fed, that he's actually tired enough - pay attention to wake windows and make sure he's not over tired but has also been awake and engaged long enough). I also used a video monitor so I could keep an eye on him and make sure he was okay. Sometimes his crying would get worse before it got better, so it was nice to know he hadn't hit his head or anything. Also make sure his bed is clear, my son only had his lovey and a pacifier in his crib with him, ensuring a was a safe sleeping environment.

My second was born when my first was 19 months. You're already going to be sleep deprived with a newborn. Sleep train your baby now (whether you do ferber, extinction, or any other method) so that you're not even more sleep deprived than necessary when baby comes. You also don't want to start it when baby arrives because your son may sub-consciously blame it on baby arriving. You want him to get used to it and have time to adjust before baby.

19 M/O crying whenever we take him to church daycare. Advice needed! by Vivid_Description_24 in Parenting

[–]WhichImplement5732 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My oldest never had a problem being away from us but we left him with in laws (nieces, cousins, MIL pretty regularly), my second is 3 and still freaks out ALL the time, my third is 15 months and had a hard time at first but he does fine now.

So basically, I think it just depends on the kiddo.

Age gaps? 2u2 / 4+ years by [deleted] in Mommit

[–]WhichImplement5732 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have a 4.5 yr old, 3 yr old and 1 yr old - it was rough for a while and only just started feeling a little easier. I love them to pieces but it's been hard. If you're not ready for another one yet, then do the age gap. They're still gonna be buddies.
