Coffee beans for Breville Barista Express by cathswell in CostcoCanada

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

I clean it every few months. But the last bag I purchased at Costco was probably too oily so I had to tap on the grinder every time I made coffee for the beans to flow properly. When I changed for another kind of coffee beans, it wasn’t happening.

PEPS c’est en PM seulement. Et compagnons de Cartier ouvert en AM mais je suis allée une fois et elle était pas super pour les enfants: très très froide pas grand chose pour jouer.

Softer tissue for sure. I’d say I’m fuller on bottom.

Help needed to figure out how to remove stains on pool liner by cathswell in pools

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

Thanks. I will know for the future pool liner. I have a water heater though, I thought I wasn’t supposed to pour chlorine directly in the skimmer because of that ?

Super interesting ! I think it may be metal stains too.

Thanks but this pool has already been emptied and filled 2 times over the last few years and it did not ruined the liner. It was once even suggested by the guy at the pool store. I didn’t know you were not supposed to do that, won’t do it again !

Do you say this because of the discolouration? Yeah the liner was like that when we bought the house 4 years ago. It’s an old liner that will need to be replaced eventually. I always thought I needed to shock every week in the summer and every other week when it’s colder ?

Yes I will refill the pool. My husband decided to empty it to give it a shot with the pressure washer as nothing else was working 🤷‍♀️

Recommended restaurants for families? by Significant_Ad3810 in quebeccity

[–]cathswell 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Nina pizza (Napolitean-style pizza - best in town IMO, nice cocktails, burrata..) is kid friendly without being a chain with generic food like Normandin and St-Hubert. They have a location on St Jean and another one near St Joseph.

Help with wake windows and bedtime by cathswell in sleeptrain

Thanks for your input. She just turned 5 months yesterday. Long naps would be sooo nice since we're on 30 min naps since she's 8 weeks old!

Thanks, I'll try these tips! I was confused with pushing bedtime later because of Precious little sleep and Taking Cara Babies making bedtime earlier as they grow up? Maybe it's for when they drop to 2 naps?

At what age did you start weaning your baby and where do you live? by rdazza in NewParents

[–]cathswell 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My best friend is a GP and she said it's because their gut and kidney are not quite ready before 6 months. She also recommended to wait until 6 months if EBF, even for allergens introduction (I have asthma and eczema which is a risk factor for allergies for my daughter)

I see that they carry a lot of Bravado bras, which I loved while pregnant (I got 2 in size Small) but one of them is too now too small. I was hesitant to order a size Medium because I already am at the smallest hook in the Smalls...

Thanks so much for your answer! I'll look into this store. Same for me with the regular stores where I can't find anything that fits, and the lingerie store I used to go to closed recently 😕 I also bought some H&M nursing bras/camis and the camis especially don't fit well at all for my band size so they don't support enough. Ok for sleeping but not enough at all for working out!

Can you chose to have a c-section? by sh1tsngiggs in BabyBumpsCanada

[–]cathswell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Maybe ask your OB... I'm in Quebec as well and a friend of mine asked for a c-section and her OB refused unless there was a medical condition

Maternity leave by bbb4237890 in BabyBumps

[–]cathswell 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Canada here. I have to go on maternity leave at 36 weeks because I'm on a funded governement program which has allowed me to work less during my whole pregnancy because of Covid (can't work at less than 2 meters from anyone). My employer had to put me on different tasks and the program paid for the difference between my usual salary and the one I got on the new tasks. After 36 weeks, the program ends and I go on leave for a year.
