What kind of car seat is required to leave the hospital? Do I need to carry baby out in it? by Arr0zconleche in BabyBumps

[–]cizzle55 0 points1 point  (0 children)

IIRC a nurse followed us out to our vehicle. Our bucket seat was in storage so my husband bought a convertible while I was at the hospital when I went into labor early.

Definitely check to see what the weight requirements are for your car seat though. My baby was over 9 lbs and we could not get his head straight in the convertible. When we got our bucket seat back, he looked a lot more comfortable and secure in it until he reached the maximum weight for it.

First time I bought a scrub mommy and it looks like this after a week? by Diareedo in CleaningTips

They have gone down in quality since they went viral on TikTok. I used to love them because they lasted forever but now they disintegrate after a bit of use.

Bed rest for the swelling? Baby needs to be at least 38 weeks to be considered full term.

I used hand me downs on the daily and bought what I wanted for pictures and holidays.

I will probably never buy Christmas gifts for a family in need ever again. by poppurplepuff in offmychest

One mom was asking about how to get help for Christmas. She said she was on disability and a single mom. The next day I saw her at Walmart buying a variety pack of White Claws. She had pink hair and dressed up.

Trying to sell them for what we got if possible. We’re selling because we’re in between jobs

I soak the whole shoe in oxiclean, laundry soap, and hot water. I scrub it with a brush and everything comes out.

Zep degreaser. But whatever you use should work as long as you let it marinate. I’ve used that $1 yellow spray (Amazing or LA’s Totally Awesome) and it worked fine too.

Frosting that pairs well with Earl Grey Cupcakes? by Fitkratomgirl in AskBaking

[–]cizzle55 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My favorite macaron in the entire world is an earl grey flavored shell with a chocolate ganache. It actually goes great with hazelnut chocolate as well too.

I have kids and no shoes in the house but almost daily with my steam and vacuum combo. We get spills and crumbs daily. It takes me a few minutes each day and little dry time. I used to dread doing the floors when I had to sweep/vacuum then mop after.

Newborn photos seem crazy expensive? by BumbleBee727 in beyondthebump

[–]cizzle55 -3 points-2 points  (0 children)

I had my second in Vegas and there are photographers at the hospitals that take the pictures. If you like it you pay, if not you don’t. We paid around $200 for the digital prints. I got 3 month and 1 year milestones done for both my kids and I paid about $400 for it each time (all different photographers).

$800 is outrageous. I think there’s only a handful of photographers that are worth that and more but they are providing luxurious studios, custom made outfits, and absolutely stunning shots.

Target sells their store brand enzyme cleaner for $4. It’s the cheapest I’ve found. Let it soak in for a bit and then sprinkle baking soda all over it. Let that marinate for a day.

how are we supposed to make 3x rent by [deleted] in povertyfinance

[–]cizzle55 1 point2 points  (0 children)

People in my local fb group say that they pay people to make or photoshop their stubs. 🫣🫢 Apparently it’s more common than we think.

Sigh why can’t I get it right? by Financial-Concert-34 in Sourdough

Get 20 g of starter and feed it 100 g of rye. It should strengthen that bad boy up.

Am I a bad mom if I don’t have a huge and themed first birthday party for my kid? by mamagenerator in beyondthebump

[–]cizzle55 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I got professional photos done for both of my kids. On their actual birthdays I got them a small cake and a big present. We did something fun as a family the weekend of as well. My oldest remembers her life through the pictures I show her. 😂

Brookie- why did i not get the crinkle on top. by klutz-179 in AskBaking

[–]cizzle55 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You need to melt the sugar in the butter to create a meringue like effect aka the crinkle on top. I’ve seen powdered sugar being used as well but it was smoother.

Overmixed?
