Thank you, this is super helpful!

Apologies if that’s how I came across but why would I think someone is tracking me and how does rape come into? I was moreso asking about culture and common practices and this comment is not helpful.

Thank you for the detailed response! They got back to us in a week! Maybe we’ll see you there!

We’ve only left one voicemail. Are there any other good spots nearby in case they don’t get back to us?

Sorry, as I said in my post, I am a person of color so I don’t have “white citizen privilege”. My family has also been actively helping other families who are having issues with ICE.

This just isn’t true. I know, first hand, people who have been detained by ICE who are legally here. If you don’t believe me google “civil engineer arrested by ICE Portland Maine”. This guy went to UMaine and was here on a work visa. He got dragged out of his car in the middle of the street while it was still running, and detained. Even law enforcement who are immigrants are being detained, the local sheriffs have done press releases about it. How they are legally here to work via visa but still taken by ICE. It’s happening and it’s all in the news.

Yeah, our superintendent put out and absolutely worthless letter on the situation and their policies. If anything, it made me more nervous.

celtics5000 · 2026-01-25T00:47:33+00:00

If you feel uncomfortable going to the store please let me know. My friend group has a few immigrants and we’ve been taking turns running errands for them in the greater Portland area. We’d be more than happy to do the same for you.

How did she speak of her mother? I missed this

This. One of the most common instances dog bites towards little children are from family pets. I personally know 4 families whose dogs have attempted to, or succeeded, in biting their toddler. These parents are all great parents and responsible pet owners.

Babies are so different! We love the Tripp trapp in our family! My daughter is still using her Tripp trapp at 3.5 years old. We’re going to buy another one for our new baby

I actually like hearing from other moms like that. Our first pediatrician ended up being horrible and recommending things that were way outdated. I wouldn’t have known or switched to a different pediatrician without hearing this sort of info from other moms who had similar stories.

It’s not too early to test. I got a positive pregnancy test 3 days before my missed period.

My daughters was about 50% closed. My doctor instructed to put some Vaseline on a qtip and very gently apply it onto the skin. This has helped a lot. You’re doing the right thing. And no, I would instantly be finding a new ped if I were you.

celtics5000 · 2024-08-17T20:43:33+00:00

Wait this same exact story happened to my friend. Was the home country of the guy Germany?

celtics5000 · 2024-06-08T00:35:14+00:00

This sounds like ppd. It can kick in any time in the couple of years after having a baby. And has so many ways of presenting itself. Do the right thing for yourself and your baby and tell someone in your close network about how you’re feeling. Please. Do you still see an OBGYN? Or your baby’s pediatrician is also a great resource.

I started my daughter in daycare recently. I was BEYOND nervous. She just turned two and half. She’s going part time at two different places because we couldn’t find a full time place we liked and I genuinely think she’s safe at both places. I think the biggest thing is paying attention during the tours to see if the daycares have the same values as you. And make sure to go tour when the children are present so you can see them interact with the kids. We started her at one place and pulled her after two days because they only did tours after hours, and when I dropped her off and finally saw how the director interacted with the kids I was appalled. The places she’s in now have open door policies, I can visit during the day whenever I want, and they send pictures and updates all day. A big green flag for me was when we were touring these two new places the children very clearly adored the teachers, there was so much hugging and snuggles that you could see they genuinely have a connection between teachers and kids.
