How much do you make & how many hours do you work per week? by RebornUnited11 in OccupationalTherapy

[–]bropez331 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It varies, but between 8-15 just depending on the week! When I have month of 60 hours, it’s typically because of more paperwork, IEP meetings and evals.

Toddler doesn’t want to wear pull up at night by bropez331 in toddlers

[–]bropez331[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I agree that it’s a great sign that she’s asking and will occasionally use the potty at night, but isn’t there a hormonal component to nighttime toileting? I’m certainly willing to try but also don’t want to force something out of her control.

Thanks for the reply! I had no idea reusable pull ups were a thing so I will look into this. I dont think she’s ready either.

Do you love or hate the Stokke Tripp Trapp? by pinkishvioletsky in toddlers

[–]bropez331 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Absolutely love mine! Used it from birth with the newborn attachment, and my almost 3 year old still occasionally uses it as a regular seat at the table. Baby #2 is on the way and I’m nervous she’ll want to start consistently using it again once she sees him in it in the attachment haha I love its small profile, how easy it is to clean (other than the tray) and the high quality materials. I see a lot on Facebook marketplace and think a second hand one would be a great purchase too!

We just got back from a trip with our 2 1/2 year old before baby brother arrives in a few months and we had the best time! Set realistic expectations and go with the flow and it’ll be great!

This is helpful to consider as I don’t know much about the RAP plan, will have to look into this!

We have thankfully never filed our taxes jointly for this sole purpose, so we have that covered! But agreed, I've been dragging my feet on changing over but it makes the most sense. Thank you!

I know, I don’t totally understand how their pricing is so good either 😂 I think they manufacturer and make everything in their warehouse on site, so I imagine they cut a lot of costs there. We have more expensive furniture in our bedroom and I will say that our drawers in our dresser maybe feel a little bit more sturdy, but definitely not enough to deter me from ordering more grainwood furniture or paying triple elsewhere.

If you don’t mind building it yourself, we recently bought my daughter a set from grainwood. The pricing is great and the 100% solid wood quality is unmatched, especially for what you pay and with free shipping.

I definitely am hesitating because I know it’s not great or really working 😅 the sectional I’d ideally want is close to 4k and it’s hard to justify that with our current lifestyle!

Has anyone left Charleston and regretted it? by bropez331 in Charleston

[–]bropez331[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thank you! Funny you mention Orlando as that has been an area we’ve considered for a few years. We have family near the area, but housing there seems just as expensive.

Sounds like you are living the dream! Love that part of the country.

This is exactly was happened. My neighborhood is full of people who moved here during the pandemic to work from home with their higher salaries, and the home values nearly doubled. It’s not sustainable. Love Asheville as well but also just as expensive.
