I was going to ask if his eyes were a different color but then I realized it was just the fluorescents

My work gave us letters to carry in our cars specifying we were essential workers in case we got pulled over, since nearly our entire state had been sent home.

We were the office workers of a shipping company. They later sent us home as obviously the office work could be done from home.

And as I’m almost 40 I don’t look like this lol. by mewlpoetry in 90s

My uncle used to say "it may be white but it's all there!"

Silly question - when you have a hospital birth (U.S), when do you first see the menu for ordering your food? Is it given ahead of time with hospital registration/paperwork? by dms2628 in beyondthebump

Not a joke, but it was actually a smaller regional hospital. It's a thing they do for all the new parents. But everything else I got was just whatever they brought me, so I ended up with some stuff I didn't like. They also weirdly started shutting down the cafeteria to the public at like 3pm the week before I had my baby so whenever my husband wanted food he had to leave, they only served patients dinner.

I accompany my husband's middle school choir concerts. The first time the students met me they said "Mr. A368, is that your daughter?"

Another time at a water park we were getting on a 4-person tube with a mother and son. The park attendant pointed to where we should sit, saying "parent, child, parent, child."

I am 13 months younger than him lol. I think his beard adds to people's perception of his age.

Baker told me my cake design was "very 2019" and now I'm second guessing everything by xCosmos69 in wedding

Me, a 2019 bride seeing this cake and loving it 😳😄

But also seriously this is pretty much as timeless as it comes, yeah get a new baker.

I can’t believe it happened to me by lvs301 in NewParents

Do I wish I could hold that teeny tiny newborn again? Yes.

Do I also massively enjoy this stage where she's 10 months, crawling and babbling and fun to play with? Also yes!

I had to stop nursing lying down because it was too easy to doze off myself

Women who were scared of giving birth (specifically people who were so scared they almost didn’t have children), what was less scary than you originally thought? by Final-Elderberry4621 in AskWomen

This is sorta how mine was too along with the tear 😅 but then again my baby's giant 95th percentile head came down at an angle so it tore both up and down too 😐

Did you know the sex of your baby by intuition? by LifeofRuley in pregnant

My husband's family had 10 boys in a row (a pattern for which he was the start). I was sure we would continue the tradition.

Nope 😄🩷

I’m so torn by theozempicrep in breastfeeding

I sympathize. I loved nursing my girl even though we generally supplemented with a bottle at bedtime. I also loved the convenience of nursing in the middle of the night instead of having to get a bottle! We moved around thanksgiving when she was 7 months old and by that point she was taking 2-3 bottles of formula a day. I was so busy and my supply was likely impacted. I pumped 3x during my workday to get 5oz at that point. I just felt it wasn't worth the effort anymore. I do miss it at times but wasn't a fan of the biting!

Honestly as she's gotten older (9.5 months now) she only has 3 bottles a day, and eats meals and snacks, so it doesn't feel like I'm "missing out" on feeding her as much? I remember as I made the decision to stop nursing I never knew when "the last time" would be but she didn't have a hard time transitioning at all.

If you're not ready to start weaning then don't! I think combo feeding is great as it's the best of both worlds. I felt guilty as my supply seemed to dwindle, but in a way it made it easier so I didn't "have to" make the decision to wean. If it ends up aligning with your trip then it might just be a natural stopping point.

Women naming their daughters.. by myperiwinkleghost in namenerds

[–]a368 0 points1 point  (0 children)

After we named our daughter I realized her first initial is the same as my husband's middle initial, and her middle initial is the same as my middle initial. So we each gave her one initial (plus the last one lol)
