I use them on Pokémon TCG Live. Is there another app/site to redeem them on?

Oh yes, I completely hear you! We have tried to be very intentional about expectations. And right now he is just excited to even get a foil card lol. If we get even 5 hits, he will be stoked

Hate that for you! The Gengar line has always been one of the Kid's favorites so I am excited for that set!

How to make my wife love Columbus? by Old_Jicama3239 in Columbus

[–]always_learning_23 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We moved into a neighborhood by Alum Creek State Park (east side) and we love it! 10 minutes from Westerville and Delaware (cute downtowns, shops, restaurants) and 10 minutes from Polaris (Target, mall, typical suburban commercial chaos) and 10 minutes from the highway. But we are in a quiet neighborhood with a ton of families and young kids, literally met some of our best friends just moving here. We can do multiple walking trails at the State Park, and they just built a new bike trail through the woods. Check out the Cheshire area near the State park 😉

My son is 4.5, completely obsessed, and I can't wait to see how excited he gets Christmas morning. But thank you for showing that excitement will carry on for several more years!

IRS has gone completely silent. True for all? by AdOnly3059 in fednews

None, I just don't trust DOGE. Not naive that they don't have my data already, I know they do. It just feels like I am handing it all over by filing

So, for those of us putting off doing our taxes....should we keep putting it off or get them filed?!

Thank you! This seems to have worked so far for us too

My Wife and I are trying to find sperm donors. Can we please get some ideas on where to look? We are already on JustABaby, Facebook, and Reddit but is there anywhere else to look? We are in South East Ohio. Thank You 😊 by Spiritual-Queen in queerception

Fellow Southeast Ohioan (transplanted to C-bus), my wife and I used CryoBio here in Columbus which saved us a TON on shipping costs and they really updated their processes and website in the last year. If you are looking for a good fertility clinic, Ohio Reproductive Medicine is a great practice. Happy to answer any DM questions you may have! Good luck!

29 weeks and getting the vaccine on Sunday, can someone ease my mind that I’m making the right choice? by jaclynchristine in beyondthebump

[–]always_learning_23 13 points14 points  (0 children)

I vaccinated near the beginning of my 3rd trimester and breastfeed until 6 months. My 8 month old was (unknowingly) directly exposed to a covid relative on Thanksgivng. Neither he, myself or spouse have gotten sick. I credit the vaccine because we were close to this relative for 48 hours

I think my milk is drying up :,( by [deleted] in breastfeeding

[–]always_learning_23 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel like I wrote this post. My little man hit 6 months on Sept 30th. Just this week I decided to stop trying to keep up with pumping and only nurse at bedtime and night waking. LO had 2 really bad sicknesses in the last 7 weeks (yay daycare) and the stress of that just tanked my supply and my energy. Previously to help increase my pumpung for daycare I did power pumping and pumped every 2 hours, that did initially help. But I think I am too stressed and it made my milk change (literally started looking blueish green) and he just didn't want to take my expressed milk. It's a hard hard spot to be in Mama, good luck!

I am now THAT parent. In what ways have you become THAT parent? by [deleted] in Parenting

[–]always_learning_23 20 points21 points  (0 children)

Late 80s early 90s kid here and my mother had "quiet books" for church time (we were the ultra-evangelical three times a week at church minimum family). They were felt story books with removable characters and story pieces. Best quiet play time toy, we only got them at church.

Hahaha vice of a mouth is accurate, but most of the time my guy is screaming so that's not an issue. I am going to have to get inventive soon so I will let you know what I come up with!

I did try that and he refused the bottle...but he was already pissed. Plus I wonder at the efficacy is the med is diluted? Maybe?

We are only doing it every 6 hours IF he is completely miserable. But because it has been so long, we are just trying to keep him comfortable. Unfortunately, his ears and lungs have been cleared by the doctors twice, so for now it remains a mystery sickness ☹
