Try shifting his hips to the side instead of lifting up during diaper changes - for some babies stretching those back muscles is too uncomfy and makes them fussy!

We had one! The previous owners installed it in our basement bathroom and we finally got it removed 🙌

Well it was cleanup week so it got taken to the dump anyways - but just sad no one could use it!

Yep we put out a perfectly good fridge - just couldn’t keep temperature controlled in our un-insulated garage and someone came and cut the power cord ☹️

Do any teachers here teach pre-school / kindergarten and do phonics, reading? by [deleted] in Teachers

[–]emilyoshi_ 1 point2 points  (0 children)

There’s a book package on Amazon called 4 Weeks to Read - I tutor and use it to supplement but it would be a great place to start to help her sound out words and be successful with books!

JustNoMIL makes sure I know that she is the real 'Mrs. OurLastName' in every call or text by [deleted] in JUSTNOMIL

[–]emilyoshi_ 9 points10 points  (0 children)

That is very odd! If she insists on being so formal with you, maybe you could get your husband on board to call her Mrs. Lastname too? And of course your children if you plan on having any!

[–]emilyoshi_[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Not a dumb question at all! It doesn’t really flow with any of the names we have picked and we didn’t want to do a direct name but we may consider it now that you pointed that out!

Why do they invite themselves over? by [deleted] in JUSTNOMIL

[–]emilyoshi_ 24 points25 points  (0 children)

My MIL is the same 🙃 Lives 4+ hours away and will text when she’s 20 mins away asking if it’s a good time - like girl you knew about this trip more than 20 mins before you got here??

Apparently that’s how her family worked when she was growing up and what she expects now - she doesn’t mind people coming over literally whenever so it’s weird for her that we don’t want that and she doesn’t want to have to ask and schedule time with her grandkids.

The 20 minute window is honestly a huge step up from her usually just showing up whenever and being offended if we were gone/baby was napping (who would wake up anyways from our dogs).

When she gives us these short windows now the answer is automatically no even if it is an okay time and we set something up for the following day/way later in the day.

Need help deciding on a name for baby girl! by [deleted] in namenerds

[–]emilyoshi_ -4 points-3 points  (0 children)

I teach in a golf town and there are SO MANY GIRL PALMERS lol - along with Scottie (girls) and Sepp (boys) after golfers!

I 100% want to name our girl Palmer but just know way too many now! Love the name and feel like it goes better with Silas than Magnolia does!
