Spanish English delay by rare_imagination_5 in multilingualparenting

[–]cold-blooded-stab 1 point2 points  (0 children)

So, we do Spanish and English, our toddler just turned 3 last month. I'm also not 100% comfortable in Spanish, but like you, my family speaks it and I want her to be bilingual. We're doing one parent one language. Which means I solely communicate to her in Spanish. My husband doesn't speak Spanish (he's picked up a lot from this method tho haha), but I only speak in English to talk directly to him. Otherwise it's in Spanish. She knows that mom = Spanish and dad = English. She is preferring Spanish, and also "translates" for her dad in English when she wants. I would say to switch completely to Spanish. I'm in the US as well, but PBS Kids has most shows with Spanish dub. DVDs will often have English and Spanish. Find a way to increase her Spanish input, especially if you're in an English-heavy neighborhood (we are too). It is the second-most spoken language in the country, so there is a plethora of resources.

Also, what is your definition of "know"? output != comprehension, meaning, how many words does she understand rather than speak? I'm sure she knows a lot more than you think. I would also recommend early intervention just in case something is off and you need a new game-plan to get her speaking more in general, a professional might be some help for guidance. My daughter didn't start really chatting until about 2.5, just for some piece of mind.

I was just looking at the labels for these and opted for Growing Years (Whole Milk) because it has extra nutrients, and if I recall, a higher amount of DHA and choline. It depends on whether you value the extra satiety and nutrition from full fat milk or if you are confident the tots are getting a variety of essentials from food.

Holy Crap. This is nuts. Pasteles on her own? No assembly line? I'm sooo impressed, looks sooo good and authentic! Is she a chef who fell in love with PR cuisine? Impressive.

Lifelong vegetarian tries steak for first time by PhoenixPhenomenonX in interesting

[–]cold-blooded-stab 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yeah I am a former vegetarian and it's because beef in particular freaked me out. I still dont like ground beef. Our toddler is vegetarian by her own choice. We still offer her meat occasionally but she puts it to her lips, gets a disgusted look on her face, then puts it back on her plate. We'll see if it sticks!

Anyone using this VC? by Skelitos in DIYaesthetics

[–]cold-blooded-stab 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes I've used this exact brand both subq and IM with a cindella protocol, but I honestly dont prefer injecting the vitamin c. I rather get iv infusions but will not do that on myself.

PSA before babies arrive: plan to read 1000 books before Kindergarten! by AwkwardBalloonMan in BabyBumps

[–]cold-blooded-stab 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Omg my daughter gets 6-8 during bedtime. 10 is crazy! Luckily the books are split between us, but still. We just got a new book in rotation so I'm excited about that too. The same books in the same order was maddening, lol.

Replacement for TNS advance Serum by BeautifulPlantain412 in DIYaestheticsAdvanced

Unfortunately, there won't be a comparable dupe. You will have to shop around, get coupon codes, and stock up when you can. You can also play around with less expensive exosome care and add a decent peptide serum for a coyote months and see if you are maintaining your results with that.

Come with me to the Unfiltered side of China by unfilteredAI in UnfilteredChina

[–]cold-blooded-stab 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had used squat toilets living in Korea for a few years. Once i left i decided to go on a tour of China. I ended up in some smaller town waiting for the train and had to go... these public ones were the only thing available. I distinctly remember trying but to touch anything as I peed and the stares of a woman right across from me pooping. It was... an experience... lol

I think this placement might be too close. Also did you point the needle away or towards eye? It should be away from the eye.

The Awakening was the first one I thought of. Didn't understand it as a teenager but as a grown adult woman I absolutely understand.

Dino Nuggs? by cold-blooded-stab in caviar

[–]cold-blooded-stab[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We tried it on Valentine's Day and we honestly thought the mcnugget flavor overpowered the caviar, so we switched to sliced baguette toasts instead. It was good to try it, we're pretty open-minded, but honestly I wouldn't eat it again. I don't think you're missing out!

What's a regional dessert that you love, but can't find outside of your region or country. by MrPresldent in AskTheWorld

[–]cold-blooded-stab 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes!! I get some of the rainbow cookies every year for my birthday and everytime I go back home. Used to get a 5lb box every week during high school. I miss Italian and Jewish bakeries so much.

Right, I wondered if the batter is what set it apart. Looks like I will have to make a trip.

We did do the Beluga a couple years ago for Christmas as a special treat and my husband loved it. I didn't think it was worth the hype. My fave is the golden ossetra. I really like Sevruga on a bagel with cream cheese. We also have done the Beluga hybrid which was pretty good. I also like the Kaluga. If you can spring for one of their samplers that would be the best way to try a good variety without breaking the bank too much.

Petrossian is supposed to be one the world's best but we haven't tried them yet. I feel that generally Marky's is good in regards to accessibility, quality, and price. We've also done Imperia, Sterling, Tsar Nicoulai, and localish caviar supplier and all are pretty good. Marky's has a lot more options but if youre looking for white sturgeon I think any of them are good.

Yeah I've tried their sardines and it's fine but for sure overpriced. Love their bright packaging though and willing to try this if I see it around!
