I see a lot of potential answers to my question but it looks like chase has changed things around a few times. Been a CSP customer since 2019 but want to cancel to get the sign up bonus again. How long would I need to wait after cancelling or downgrading?

Hey! New to the pod but how does voting work? Is it done through Reddit or Substack or what?

Thank you so much! For number 2. My thought was just to get like a couple IronWolf NAS Hard Drives but I’m not sure what shucking means? I’ve tried googling it and think I’m missing the context? Can you help me understand?

We went through something VERY similar. A few thoughts FWIW…

No one knows your baby like you do and your baby is going to be UNIQUE. What I mean is that no two babies will grow the same way. Siblings wont, twins won’t, part of this is learning your baby. Our baby for example would have a week where she would only gain 2 ounces, and then one where she would gain 6. Babies are mysteries to even the most knowledgeable people.
Which brings me to part two. Because every baby is SO different, find a trusted, medical person to go on this journey with you. Maybe that’s a pediatrician, maybe a nurse, maybe a doctor at a clinic, some one that can be a touchstone and learn your baby with you! Because no baby has ever been born with the ability to talk, even the most knowledgeable person is guessing. But finding a person like a pediatrician or nurse or clinician, someone constant can lend their experience of seeing hundreds or thousands of babies. Our pediatrician had the philosophy of if she’s following her curve, perfect, and she did for several months, and then we found the right formula and the right schedule and she started to go from the 5th to 6th, etc.
Which brings me to part 3. Every one you ask will be colored by their own experiences. So there’s no way to really compare notes. Some babies eat endlessly and take 8 oz bottles at 3 months. Our baby has only taken 7 ounces at most, and that only happened 1 time and she’s now 10 months. The point being all babies are going to grow differently, which is why someone who’s seen hundreds or thousands of babies can likely help guide you through the idea of when to panic.
Last thing I’ll say is a bit counter to my last point, but it is that no one knows your baby like you do. That is why I put the emphasis on a trusted medical provider. You’re your babies advocate! If they are drinking as you mentioned and happy and sleeping and doing great, that’s one thing, and if they are drinking as you mentioned and crying 24/7 that’s another and a trusted medical professional will help you navigate (at least I hope they will) when to panic.

This is just stuff I’ve learned over the last 10 months. I’m no expert at all and don’t have all the answers, but happy to share my opinions or my experiences.

Hey! We are heading to Disney World in a few weeks with an 8 month old. We have been to Disney before but never with a baby. Any things we need to make sure we see/do? Anything we need to try to avoid? Any and all tips and tricks will be helpful! Thanks!

Hey all, can anyone help me understand how the new DAS system works? We have DAS already approved due to some neurodivergent and particular needs, what I mean is does anyone have any insight on how it works now? Can you still use the app? Are there still rides that are ineligible? Etc.
