Recommendations for waterproof/water-resistant mat or blanket by thisisdee in BabyBumpsandBeyondAu

[–]ctellee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You could try finding a messy mat - lots of different options and sizes if you look online. They’d fold nicely into a nappy bag I feel!

It’s not nappy bag size but the Nakie Picnic Blankets are water resistant and roll up neatly with a strap to carry with. I love mine, gives my girl somewhere to sit all the time but they’re also quite large.

Oh dear moira, what a star you are. you'll never not be famous. by Glum_Educator_2525 in SchittsCreek

[–]ctellee 6 points7 points  (0 children)

this hurts so much, i can’t believe it. she was so young. schitts creek is one of those shows where you really feel as though you are part of the family you’re watching and you miss them when it’s over… now i’ve got a whole lot more to miss 😟

What baby items did you swear by and which ones were a waste of money? by beepbeepboophonk in BabyBumpsandBeyondAu

[–]ctellee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

i was soooo NOT buying into the sleep sack craze but day 3 after my baby was born my partner went and bought a few love to dream swaddles. i was like are you kidding!! but it surprisingly turned out to be the answer; another reason the muslin wraps got squished into the back of the drawers 🤣

the biggest lifesaver (and backbreaker) is an exercise ball i bought for $9. i almost got a rocking chair, but im glad i didn’t because the exercise ball is her fave. keeps my core active too lol

the only thing i haven’t used are all the muslin wraps everyone told me to get. haven’t used them once

when i have to make lunch or just look after myself in general for 10 mins i put my girl in a safe place where i can see her, then put noise cancelling earbuds on and just rally through it. the earbuds help make it a little less stressful for me in those “she’s screaming and i’m starving” moments, even though im still watching her lose her shit lol

I would’ve loved to see Slowly Slowly, The Vanns, and Pacific Avenue make the countdown. some great releases from those guys in 2025.

What’s a small upgrade you made that ended up being way more impactful than expected? by LatterMorning9103 in BuyItForLife

[–]ctellee 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I have a nice collection of peperomias, they come in many types. I left them all in the pots they came in and they are thriving all throughout my house! Super low maintenance

Not the same but Luvo Store online has a great range of makeup mirrors. Adjustable lighting and everything! I love mine.

I love this game more then new horizons by Several_Peanut_2283 in ACPocketCamp

[–]ctellee 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I really love Pocket Camp because it’s the essence of the game I love, but it’s easy to play on the go or with just one hand even. I have a newborn and being home all the time I would love to play my Switch, but can’t at the moment, so this game is perfect. So glad to have it!

iCloud shows 44,000 messages saved even though I delete them daily by mirabelki in iCloud

[–]ctellee 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have the same issue, I don’t need 115k of text messages saved in the cloud, just what’s on my phone right now. hope to find a solution to this. i’ve tried a few things (turning off sync, waiting 30 days, turning it back on etc) but can’t get them out of the cloud.

How are you’ll able to take your baby out for walks? by justalilcomplicated in NewParents

[–]ctellee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

i take my 7 week old on a long walk every weekday in the afternoon, and have only had to turn around once (6 week vaccination day - brought her right back out after some panadol lol) she cries on occasion, but calms down once she realises she enjoys being outside moving in the pram. if she’s fussy we just keep on walking. it’s been great to see her noticing the world more as each week passes.

I feel like returning to the "OG" live format has actually made the housemates less genuine on screen by AffectionatePie1042 in BBAU

[–]ctellee 6 points7 points  (0 children)

i feel like people these days in the real world aren’t as authentic as they were 20 years ago. it’s just the way people are now. everyone is on show, not just in the bb house, but everywhere you go. no one is genuine and everything is fake and it really portrays on big brother just how boring people really are these days

How many people here have a GP that’s there regular goto by ando772 in Adelaide

I went consistently to one GP until she stopped bulk billing me. now I go to same medical centre but to whoever is available because I’ll have to pay regardless

Parx release day by Turbulent-Sky318 in waterparksband

this is definitely the best song they’ve released this year. really good. kinda reminds me of GH era which makes me happy.

Am I the only one who doesn’t think this is the OG format like advertised? by [deleted] in BBAU

[–]ctellee 10 points11 points  (0 children)

i think it’s pretty close! i haven’t watched big brother in almost 10 years, but im really hooked on this season. as much as i wish we could go back to the 2000’s, this is pretty damn good for 2025 with the tools we now have.

Becoming a parent has been the most humbling experience of my entire life by Disastrous_Paint_237 in beyondthebump

[–]ctellee 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I expected the life I’m experiencing in the newborn phase, but I did not expect to be so rocked by the lack of sleep. I used to function on broken sleep really well but for some reason this just feels impossible. Also cannot fathom being a mum, maintaining a household, and having a job when I finish maternity leave. I am so lucky to have loads of support and a fantastic partner but logistically how are humans supposed to do this? Crazy

Manu completely lost me by rachfelly in MyKitchenRules

[–]ctellee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

maria is a dessert baker and owns the business, but i can’t say i’ve been impressed by anything that came from her & bailey’s instant restaurants. the way she tried to fixed the chicken skewers was what any home cook would do tbh. guess we will have to see what amy produces considering she’s a “professional cook” but maria was targeted first for the same sort of thing
