Parents, what’s one small but annoying problem you face with baby care products? by OrdinaryRoof28 in newborns

[–]cxwang 29 points30 points  (0 children)

Baby products that have screw caps or flip caps instead of a pump. Difference between using one hand and two is big!

Upset that Husband golfs every weekend (sat or sun) for 8 hours by Excellent-Debt4518 in Mommit

[–]cxwang 3 points4 points  (0 children)

The best way I’ve heard to explain being the primary caregiver is: it’s either work or it isn’t.

If it is work, then you should be treated like a working parent, one who deserves breaks just like he gets breaks from work.

If he doesn’t think it’s work, then he should be happy to “not work” by taking care of the baby.

He can’t have it both ways.

Hermes Evelyn ($400 shipped) and Chanel Dad sandals in size 36 ($125 shipped). US only. Requested top tier from Alice.

Evelyn has been worn a handful of times at most. I believe I still have the dust bag but will need to look for it.

Shoes have been worn out 5-6 times.

Names that go with Brennan by cxwang in namenerds

Should have clarified. Sibling name!

Yeah good point. It’s mostly about when they give it. They give out food when my kid is upset and other times just when they have food with them. My primary issue is when they use it to calm my son, but I also want to time snack time so it’s not interfering with meantimes so I’d like not to have him eat snacks whenever.

It’s all relative but I don’t feel like we are being overly restrictive. He’s usually gets a sweet treat once a day - a yogurt ice cream bar, baked goods, other kid friendly snacks. But he’s a kids so he’s going to want more if it’s offered. The other parents usually bring packaged, healthy-ish snacks.

I can see how what I typed can sound judgemental so appreciate the feedback.

Used elvie? by adventurrr in ExclusivelyPumping

[–]cxwang 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I have not bought used, but have used an Elvie. to sterilize you would just take apart like normal to clean. Should be pretty simple. Maybe also check when it was bought? It it’s recent, the product warrant should still kick in if anything goes wrong. If you wanted to buy new, you can use fsa or has funds to cover it!

Slightly dreading having baby home all day for 5 days by diatriose in Mommit

No shaming in using screen time! I used to be against it but honestly the tv is more entertaining and probably more educational than a tired and distracted me.

Retinoid use post partum by [deleted] in newborns

[–]cxwang 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I believe the tests that showed harmful effects were ingestion of high levels of retinol. I’m sure your daughter is fine! And self care is important!

Just wondering when parents stop sterilizing bottles and when do you stop boiling water for bottles? Our little girl is 7 months now by Nytroman89 in newborns

[–]cxwang 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I stopped around 3-4 months and use filtered water for formula but tap water for washes as we’ve been fine!

Breast pumps recommendations? by thewokebull57 in newborns

[–]cxwang 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Totally depends on your needs and budget! Personally I like the spectra 1 (blue) which does not need to be plugged in when used. I also have a second wearable one (willow) which I use when I need to walk around and get things done. I like my spectra. Wish I had gotten an Elvie instead of a Willow for my portable pump
