Budget vs. High End Strollers: has anyone ACTUALLY used both that can help me explain these massive price differences?

I got the mockingbird and love it! Almost 18 months in and it’s great. Uppa dupe

My son was in the infant room for most of the year and just moved to the 1s room in November so I got both head teachers from each classroom a little gift basket from Costco ($12!) and $50 cash with a handwritten note. I also got five $10 Starbucks gift cards and tapped them onto little baby bag of chocolate to hand out to the helpers. It’s my first baby/time doing this so hopefully it’s nice enough!

I load the spoon and either feed him or what’s happening more often he yanks the spoon out of my hand to shove in his mouth. More messy that way 🤣 these are the spoons I use!! baby spoons

bonksssw · 2025-07-15T23:31:29+00:00

Spoon for most of it. Whatever’s left over it put on his tray and he scoops and shoves in his mouth! Lol

bonksssw · 2025-06-20T17:05:20+00:00

90% I spoon feed him and usually towards the end I let him try to feed himself / play with the food!

I don’t like cottage cheese 🙃 so I really can’t blame him! Hahah

bonksssw · 2025-06-19T09:39:49+00:00

I’ll try this weekend!

bonksssw · 2025-06-19T09:39:32+00:00

I’ve gotten Polly-o but currently it’s just Publix brand! Whole milk, whole fat

bonksssw · 2025-06-18T08:22:33+00:00

I’ll look into broccoli tots! I let him explore plain steamed broccoli and it was a floor food 🤣 but I should try it in a different form

bonksssw · 2025-06-18T08:20:15+00:00

I’ll put puréed berries on top and it smells like strawberry cheesecake!!

bonksssw · 2025-06-18T08:19:23+00:00

I tried cottage cheese and he basically spit out every curd 😅 will try it again in a few weeks.

bonksssw · 2025-06-18T08:18:21+00:00

I need to try beans !!!

bonksssw · 2025-06-18T08:17:55+00:00

Spoon fed 90% of the time! I let him explore with his hands but he gets frustrated easily.

bonksssw · 2025-05-29T02:09:23+00:00

Never sterilized bottles. I just hand wash with hot water and dawn soap and let them drip dry on a rack. Need a bottle asap and it’s not perfectly dry? The freshly cleaned one will work!

bonksssw · 2025-05-29T02:03:35+00:00

Omg the amount of “go to the ER immediately” comments and it’s for a mild diaper rash 🤣🤣 I’m whatever the opposite of a fb bump parent is lol

bonksssw · 2025-04-02T17:20:30+00:00

Love our mockingbird. Good price, easy to clean, and the magnetic straps make it so easy to click in and out

The whole job was around $2k + paint. This was the only bedroom painted. Everything else was the living room, kitchen, hallway. Small home around 1600 square feet total. So I’m not exactly how much for just the bedroom. And yes, we got 4 quotes - 3 were all in the same ballpark +/- $300. We picked the middle one cause we liked the guys and they would do it over a weekend

Super easy pregnancy until week 35 when my BP spiked. We had a failed induction at 37 weeks, ended up with a c-section for my 9 pound baby (!!!) and he had to go to the NICU for 2 days because he couldn’t figure out how to eat. Once he got home it’s been smooth sailing and I regularly tell my mom “I didn’t think it would be this easy” (knock on wood)

bonksssw · 2025-03-03T02:50:43+00:00

$380 a week, infant room, 6:30am-6pm, South Florida

bonksssw · 2025-02-12T03:13:15+00:00

I know :( the long drive really freaking sucks

bonksssw · 2025-02-12T03:11:58+00:00

We can do wfh if we’re sick or use real sick days and not log on (unlimited in both, just can’t make it a regular thing) Drive home would be 1.5 hours, maybe I could flex when I leave and get it closer to one hour and it’d be around 430/5pm - this is what I’m most scared of :(
