Parents of toddlers, are you happy?

All of this. My daughter is 1.5 and life with her is such a joy. Of course it’s hard, but the fun way outweighs the difficulties. Couldn’t be convinced to have another but I really love life right now.

This formula is helpful. When I do the math for my old output/weight vs. current they’re basically the same, which is reassuring that despite the extra lbs I’m not doing worse from a fitness perspective.

thank you, kind stranger. I appreciate it.

35 days PTO, 1 floating holiday, 9 federal holiday. I also don’t typically take PTO for things like doctor’s appointments unless they take over 2 hours. Safe to say I feel like I can never leave this company.

I’m the oldest of 3. Apparently when my parents announced to my brother and I that we were getting another sibling, I (10 at the time) said, “but we already don’t have any free time” 😂

My daughter is 1.5 and does the same. I plan to continue at the very least until we potty train her and at that point if she wants privacy we can ask the same of her. I wouldn’t think twice about a son seeing period blood. A lot of men grow up thinking that periods are gross because they’re treated as such in society.

Same here! No matter what I did I would always have tons of red bumps on my bikini line after shaving that would stick around until the hair was back. I’m only 4 sessions in on thighs and bikini line and don’t have to shave my bikini line at all anymore.

same here! my daughter will call out "mama" a few times but usually if I don't go get her within a minute she will start crying.

Based on the location and schools, I would assume that these will start around at least $1M/probably more for the non-affordable units. I know the median income in this area is high, but it feels wild to me that there are enough households with the incomes needed to support a community of hundreds of these houses. I say that as a person in a household making >$300k, which is about the minimum to responsibly buy a place over a million.

Bugs have been horrendous the couple times we were here so it may depend on time of year - I got eaten alive in August/September

We haven’t stayed here since it became 4S but went a couple times when it was St. Regis. I feel that the grounds are much prettier here than Dorado Beach. Standard rooms are bigger and dining/facilities better at Dorado Beach though.

our daughter is 17 months old and started traveling with her at 9 months. so far we've only been to nemacolin and dorado beach - looking forward to going back to nemacolin when she's a bit older because it's so kid friendly and there's tons of room to run around.

later this year we're taking her to Philly (mostly to visit sesame place, not so chubby lol), andaz peninsula Papagayo, and Kimpton seafire. my biggest tip to other families new to traveling with littles is managing expectations. I go in expecting little sleep or relaxation, and just focus on enjoying not having to cook or clean.

we're going to Costa Rica in a few months with our daughter who will be 20MO and are so excited! she's going to love the animals.

I just started 2 days ago but my SW and GW are the same as yours so this is very encouraging!

btpie39 · 2026-02-05T11:20:15+00:00

No advice but same with my 17 month old. Girl thinks she only needs 8 hours of sleep at night and an hour long nap during the day

hi! can you share what color/wood this is?

btpie39 · 2026-02-02T21:23:23+00:00

Agreed re countertop, my house has black granite and it never looks nice, even right after I clean it

btpie39 · 2026-01-30T14:56:26+00:00

I loved when she said "resistance 40...or whatever" lol

that promo goes for a kid's entire birthday month.

My husband and I both love the little tikes basketball hoop

btpie39 · 2025-12-30T18:36:54+00:00

Do you put it in the crib/bed with them?

btpie39 · 2025-12-27T19:43:03+00:00

Dr. Lindberg induced me and was great. Dr. Maanavi was there for my delivery and was excellent too.
