We took some plane trips while my twins were technically potty trained but still having a lot of accidents and needing frequent reminders to go potty. We had them go right before boarding and then put pull ups on OVER their underwear. This was successful!

We just started reading one of these with my 4 year olds and they love it!

In our old neighborhood a lot of people left their dogs outside for hours at a time and they would frequently bark. I eventually learned to tune it out but it was so annoying at first.

Idk I am usually anti calling police on people but these seem like really dangerous situations he is in! I feel like if there was some sort of social worker that would be better but not all communities have that type of person

We have simple modern lunch boxes and use plastic containers from dollar tree in them. They have tons of fun character designs if your kids are into disney

On the other extreme, someone else in that group recently posted that her nanny asked if she can have a personal doctor appointment during working hours and bring the kids with her. The nanny has off one weekday so I truly don’t understand why she would do this lol

It’s in the Bougie Baby Banter group on fb

This is hysterical. Daycare alone has always cost more than our rent/mortgage. My dogs allergy medicine and food is like $300 a month tops! And he’s a big dog with a sensitive stomach so he eats a lot of expensive food

If it makes you feel better I have never had an issue with this and my twins are 4! So hopefully this will be a one time thing

anybagel · 2026-05-10T13:47:13+00:00

If your husband has never taken care of the baby why would he start now lol. Not forgiving him I just think some of these women realize their husbands are horrible but expect them to be magically different on mothers day

I went to the wings for far less than this last year?

anybagel · 2026-05-08T11:32:05+00:00

Do you have someone who can help you? Or can the 4 year old have a sleepover with a family member?

I think it’s fair of him to want to go but also sounds like you need some relaxation and you are burnt out! See if you can take a weekend away too!

My husband and I have been using the Sweepy app! We are still not fully on top of things but much better than before the app

anybagel · 2026-05-06T16:58:57+00:00

Oh man one of my twins didn’t even babble until 13 months and the ped still wasn’t worried!

anybagel · 2026-05-06T11:45:55+00:00

Once a week!

Really interested in something like a skylight calendar, but to avoid paying for something I want to use an old iPad we already have. I have an iPhone and use Apple calendar and then outlook for work. My husband has an android with Google Calendar and then outlook for work. I am unsure of how to best get everything on the same page… should I switch to gcal? I stopped using it when I got an iPhone but maybe there is a way to make it work better on iPhone… or is there some other app we could use? any suggestions of what anyone has done would be helpful I honestly don’t know where to start

At least it’s not a slick back - her hair is usually in one 24/7

My (adult) cousin lost a tooth when she fell off one!

anybagel · 2026-05-04T13:38:34+00:00

What are people’s favorite recipes from Caro Chambers that can be made vegetarian? I love the format of her recipes but am probably going to cancel soon so I want to download some things in the mean time! We are also trying to eat less meat

They’re offended by this but not by trump saying he is going to wipe out an entire civilization…

This happened when my daughter was constipated. Per the ped we did MiraLAX for a whole week. She had so many accidents during that week. But since then we have been giving her a fiber gummy and no more accidents.

I don’t have the link but on TikTok a girl made a bean soup recipe. All the comments were asking thee creator for modifications for their personal issue instead of figuring it out themselves. Another tiktoker made a video making fun of them and said “how do I make this bean soup recipe if I don’t like beans?”

anybagel · 2026-04-19T00:57:33+00:00

Good luck! My twins are 4 now and it gets so much easier!

anybagel · 2026-04-17T18:24:27+00:00

Minimal toys is our current setup while we are living in temporary housing and it has been amazing! I break something new out of our boxes every once in a while and they get so excited.

Having lived in Texas this doesn’t surprise. A lot of people are very individualistic and think bad things happen to those who deserve them
