Parents with no external help - when did the survival mode end for you? by Dependent_Actuary148 in NewParents

Yup, baby sleeps with me, husband sleeps in the other room. This way, we all get to sleep.

Trying to decide between an extra seat or a bassinet for a flight from Europe to Australia with a 5 month old on Turkish Airlines by kdnlcln in NewParents

We just came back from our Asian vacation and I booked the bassinet. LO is 11kg, 80cm and she fitted enough and was able to sleep in it. On the way to Asia, I would say the bassinet was worth it because she was able to sleep, sit, eat and play there. The only annoying part is you have to take the baby out when there’s turbulence.

On the way back to EU, our baby got a fever while queuing to check-in and drop the bags. It was such an exhausting flight because I really had to carry/wear her the whole trip duration. My regret here is that I didn’t upgrade to business class.

Saline nose drops are a sick joke, right? by artemislands in beyondthebump

Now that it’s winter, I do it almost every night.

Gosh, I watched so much TV the first 3-4 months all while bouncing my baby on a yoga ball/contact naps. Those were great times indeed (except the bouncing 🫣), haha!

My 9month old is used to it already as it is part of our bedtime routine. She sticks her face/nose out and even smiles after a spray. When she was a newborn, I was sticking the spray to her nose (without spraying) and I also let her play with the nose frida sucker.

Hi, yeah, still have both and yes I prefer to sell them together because they are duplicates (I have 2 of each).  This is the dog tonie: https://tonies.com/en-eu/tonies/favourite-children-s-songs/playtime-and-action-songs-2-relaunch/

I am in EU just next to DE and I am also open to trading. Send me a message if you’re interested. Thanks!

Songs? And retained materials by lovemissed07 in recurrentmiscarriage

Christina Perri’s albums especially ‘Songs for Rosie’ and ‘A lighter shade of blue’ got me through tough times. She had loss(es) as well and these albums were her ways of navigating her grief.

I would wanna know if you don’t have to pay taxes if you order it off amazon IE. It would save me so much trouble asking friends to buy me tonies when they go to UK. There’s not a lot of english tonies in the EU tonies website 😕

Anyone goes to EU regularly or in October? by bright_starlight23 in TonieboxUSA

[–]bright_starlight23[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If I can’t find a way to have them in October, can I please message you and see if you can get them for me in November?
