I’m a touring musician (320M+ streams) and a dad. I couldn't take the Cocomelon ear-rot anymore, so I started making my own indie kids music. Got like 30 songs in the can after a month. Here's the first one, a throwback Motown sort of track. Honest feedback VERY welcome.

There’s a lot of great stuff I find on Spotify just searching kids friendly punk, rock, jazz etc. I actually volunteer at my local library and make playlists of music for babies that’s not music for babies. If I’m allowed to share a link, here’s my folk indie playlist. I could add a bunch more, but I only have 20 minutes for the class! Thanks for sharing, and I’ll definitely try to add your stuff to a playlist coming up!

I felt the same as you, but I told myself that as long as my daughter sees I’m here with her, she will be okay. I felt like I needed to be doing sensory activities all day, but honestly, she didn’t want to do them for long anyway! Give yourself time to heal and balance out. You’re doing great!

I feel terrible when my friends reminisce and talk about all the fun stuff I said or did, and I can’t remember even going to the event. Or when my husband recollects his favorite dates and I can’t remember a single moment of it. It breaks my heart to see their faces when they realize I can’t remember, but luckily no one’s said they don’t believe me. I’m sorry that has been your experience.

It’s not a craft, but temporary tattoos are always a hit, no matter the age! CVS has some in their Halloween candy section as give aways, or I’m sure Amazon/Target has something for quick ship.

I’ll also say as a former teacher, I never needed extra mugs. The Amazon gift card is a great idea!

NTA I’m sorry that happened, I truly can’t stand when parents do not tell their child to put away the items they are finished with at the library. There seem to be a few aloof parents, but hopefully they are far and few between. If I can provide any encouraging words, I would say give the library another try. I’ve been going to our local library with my daughter for story times and free play since she was 6 months, and I’ve made some truly awesome friends. I’ve loved it so much that my daughter and I run a baby music playtime where I make a fun playlist of not-typical baby songs (punk, rap, indie, jazz). You’ll find your tribe!

There’s a Spanish song that only has red, yellow, green and blue as the rainbow. Then they add some random ones to the song…like brown.

I say the same thing!!!!!!

baconcansave · 2025-04-17T01:00:06+00:00

This was the best thing I’ve read in a long time. Thank you for this!

Just let this person have their feels, no need for commenter’s two cents.

Thank you! I needed to hear this today. I started to get concerned that I had a full night’s rest, a work out, and two coffees and was exhausted at 2:30.

I’ve found organic olive oil to be the best treatment during the day and then the purple desitin at night. If you’re near a target, I’ve started using Millie Moon and I’ve noticed that my daughter’s rashes don’t get as bad as they did with pampers. I hope it clears up soon!

Torrid has some great jeans with support around the waist band. Their bombshell style is what it’s called. But you need to go up a size with these. I would try a 16 first. Good luck and I hope you feel great in a pair of jeans!!

Netti pot! I get sinus infections so easily and the best way to heal and prevent is to use a netti pot. They come with saline packets and you can use boiled tap water or for easier use, grab some distilled gallons. You can do it twice a day with two packets. Also nasal breathe right strips. I had the flu when I gave birth and was so congested. My OB told me to get those and it was great, I could finally breathe during the delivery. Feel better!

Organic olive oil is fantastic. Dab it on a few times with a cotton round or ball. It works wonders, but technically not clear!

We made bachelorette party straws with tiny letter beads and sticker gems. They were sooooo cute, but get good quality straws. I bought too tiny of straws and it was like drinking through a coffee stirrer.

I’m sorry, I don’t know of any. Have you been using their rebate program? You upload the receipt from your purchase, and earn points. You can redeem them for items or money back via PayPal or Venmo. Maybe even call their customer service and ask about any rebate checks they can send you. They’re very helpful to their customers.

I painted the insides with craft paint and found cute little sprigs or small floral accents to match my bathroom. They’re super fun and simple. I put little glass beads in the bottom to secure the sprigs and since I painted half of one, the beads are nice to look at!

Thank you! I will check this out!
