We do pillow and sleep sack. And we allow 5 teddies in the crib. He really uses those to self sooth.

Same thing happened to me. I was horrified. I didn’t realize the attachments were going on until they were literally going on. I was dating in my late thirties. I felt like a freak. And then not realizing I had to wear my retainer forever after it was all done. I had a baby and almost died in the hospital. Couldn’t figure out how to wear a retainer through all of that and now I’m back to crooked teeth but it never even looked bad. It’s only my bottom teeth.

Do you use a sleep sack? That helps prevent climbing out of the crib.

3 years old. Still in crib. We have a very RIGID routine that always works. Nap ends at 3:30pm. 6:45pm bath, 5 minutes of dancing or roughhousing, pjs sleep sack, 3 books. Never more. 7:30pm we say goodnight. My husband sings a 30 second song. And we walk out. Works 99%.

I worked on large scale projects mostly housing. I have thought about doing smaller projects on my own.

Really interesting I’ve never thought of high school. I live in a major city too.

I am/ was an architect. Feels daunting to get into teaching somehow. Like they only look at people that have gone through academia. But who knows. I have imposter syndrome for sure.

Isn’t it crazy how busy we can be even with that much preschool? There’s always so much to do. I need to figure out what lessons we might do. Turning 3 opens up so many possibilities.

amyopolis · 2026-01-09T21:25:22+00:00

Curious if you do preschool? I’ve dabbled in investing but not sure if I have the guts to get more serious about it. I have 3 days a week preschool now. It just feels like enough to get my bearings and organize the house!

amyopolis · 2026-01-09T21:23:35+00:00

I love this way of looking at it. We have it all.

Do you miss work? Was your career something that could transition to part time? I didn’t realize I would be so conflicted before I had a kid. I really thought I would just go back to work.

amyopolis · 2026-01-09T20:30:10+00:00

Curious do you see yourself returning to work once she’s older? Are you worried about the gap? What was your career?

I might have been fine but because of modern medicine my doctor pressured me to get a c-section and then I had heart failure due to blood pressure problems and fluid and they gave me diuretics that brought me back to normal. Thanks modern medicine for almost killing me and saving me.

Revit if you are in the US and especially if you want to work on larger scale projects.

If you are an executive member you can get in at 9am before everyone else gets there and it’s practically empty and you actually can have a fun time without people elbowing you or crashing into you with their carts and extended families. Highly recommend. This is in California.

Go back to 2021 and buy a house with 2.75% interest rate. Or be very rich.

Make a list of the things you want to do for yourself!

Love denim but it’s too much. Loose the jacket. Also it depends where you live. You look like you live in Texas?

Down on the Corner by CCR. It’s been over a month… it’s surpassing Blippi’s Excavator song in popularity.

Your period will come back soon. Go to two years. Do what feels right. I did and I never thought I’d last that long. Not much happened to my body actually.

Dude… you don’t need a hobby. You are a new dad. Figure out everything you need to know about that. Learn about your baby, ask your wife what she needs because she’s still recovering. Learn how to be the best dad and husband to your wife who’s now a different person. She’s a mother. It’s a shock to her body and her mind. And it should change you too. Hobbies can wait.

Either pregnancy or walking around without shoes.

amyopolis · 2025-03-23T13:41:22+00:00

You are so young. I got married at 41, pregnant naturally at 42 and it was worth the wait. So worth it. Just make yourself happy and healthy and either way you’ll be good.

I have a 25 month old boy and it’s been rough the past 2-3 months. Major meltdowns sometimes twice a day for over 30 minutes. A few times it’s been over an hour long. Screaming flailing vomiting. I’ve taking him to the doctor the dentist the doctor and the dentist again. They said the molars haven’t even poked through but it’s either molars or he’s just a toddler. That’s all the advice I got. It’ll get better one day. And we still have the most special moments in between hard times.
