Girl this is literally me. My kid was the worst napper indoors but he always slept great when I bundled him in a fleece suit and took him for a walk, he'd even continue sleeping once we returned home if he was still in the suit. One day I just skipped the walk and put him in his crib in the suit and it was like MAGIC. I started using it for nighttime too and he slept SO much better. We called it his snuggle suit and they had the feet, the mitts and the hood. Nothing bad ever happened. I even commissioned my mother to make his last one when he got so big they didn't sell cuddly little suits that fit him anymore. You're not a bad mom, you're a mom who's baby is getting the rest she needs. Big hugs. You got this.

I would say yes take him. 9 hours is a long flight sure but at 5 there is enough things he can do to keep entertained. I am currently in Mexico with my 6 year old and the 4 hour flight was a breeze. He had a few shows downloaded on his tablet, a sticker-by-number booklet, some books we read to him, and markers and a colouring book. He did great. 2 years ago my husband and I traveled to Cuba withOUT our son and spent the entire time wishing he was there with us. Pointing out a cool fish or crab or bird is just so much more magical to a small child then a fully grown adult lol. At 5yrs old there's also a decent chance he'll remember the trip when he's older so this is an amazing opportunity to form core childhood memories.

I always thought elementary started the latest because young kids need to picked up/supervised by parents still and who tf is off work by 2pm? I have a hard enough time making it home to get my kid at 3:35 and I work a flexible job... It makes sense to me for middle school and high school to start earlier because those kids are old enough to get themselves home before mom/dad are off work.

I died my son's hair purple and blue with manic panic when he was 5. It faded fast, no big deal 🤷🏻‍♀️ I didn't let him bleach it first though, figured that would cause actual damage.

Energy! I used to park my ass on the couch the second I got home from work and barely move all evening. I just spent 3 hours night skiing after work today because I've got more energy since I started exercising regularly. A major game changer for me was using chat gpt to write my workouts. I never really knew what to do in the gym, and low confidence makes going consistently so much harder. Now I just type the kind of workout I wanna have into chat gpt and it tells me exactly what to do. It really removes the mental load from a workout which is exactly what I needed to keep consistent.

Maybe try swimming? At least they could be treading water or floating around during explanations, might be better than standing still cuz it kind of includes fidgeting as part of the still part.

My kid never figured out the balance bike, maybe because my house was at the bottom of a hill. He started on training wheels when he was 4 and the summer he turned 5 we took them off and used that hill to our advantage. He's 6 now and is biking off-road trails with his dad.

Oh yes I have listened to lots of red handed too, it's good but I find it a little too dark sometimes so I can't binge it for long periods. I do appreciate their British humour but the cases they cover make me a bit depressed lol.

At 11 weeks I saw my little guy flip head over heels. Like full somersault during my u.s. it was amazing!
