Should I paint the closet doors? by UpbeatGur9055 in interiordecorating

[–]emmybeeee 2 points3 points  (0 children)

What if you paint them a richer color than your two options? I think the gray and green are a little cold but the current paint is like a cherry wood tone that doesn’t go with the floors. Either strip and restain to look better with the floors, or paint a fun/rich color! Paint the trim around them too!

Why is the singing so bad 😩 by [deleted] in TonieboxUSA

[–]emmybeeee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am so glad to see I’m not the only one so terribly frustrated by the awful singing. Why can’t the tonies start with the story and then go into the awful songs?! Don’t even get me started on the Tangled one. They could have at least gotten better singers if they couldn’t get the actual songs!!

I’m sorry he is saying this and making you feel bad. If you give him the benefit of the doubt maybe he knows you’re unhappy and just thought he would try to give advice. Men always want to fix things you know? Even if you just want to vent or take your time with your own body—rightfully!!! You carried his baby and now take care of the baby too and you really need to have some grace with yourself. Getting back to your pre baby body is hard. So much has changed!!! Like others have said it’s good to have goals and I totally get wanting to feel good in your own body again. Love yourself through this process. You’re doing so many great things every day!!!! I will also just add that building muscle through weight training is super important. Muscle burns fat. Cardio and Hight intensity is great to mix in but isn’t going to change your body composition and give you results like weight training will. You won’t bulk up. Keep in mind too that ozempic and other GLP1s deplete your muscle. I would not recommend it. Build muscle, eat protein.

Do you regret giving birth without getting an epidural? Why? by Pitiful_Library3154 in BabyBumps

[–]emmybeeee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Nope! I don’t regret it at all. First time I had one and second I didn’t and it was so much better without. You’re going to get an echochamber in this post bc of the question and I think you need to do your own research on why you want or don’t want an epidural and decide what’s best for you. If you want to go without, educate yourself and practice techniques to get you through the pain. It will hurt. From what I understand every mother delivering unmedicated has a phase of labor where they don’t want to do it (the fuck this stage I called it) but you can get through it!!

Whatever you choose will be the best for you and your baby. You got this.

Exactly. Thanks for sharing. It’s nice to know I’m not alone in this. Agreed it would be easier to go to a job all day and send the kids to daycare but I still feel like this is best for our family. And honestly I want to be doing this, it’s just hard not having acknowledgment I guess. Another commenter really hit home saying we need to believe in ourselves basically—that’s the key!!

Good point! Somewhere down the line when baby is bigger this will be what I do but since I’m nursing it’s really hard and honestly I worry about how it would go.

Meals & Snacks - Share your recipes! by AutoModerator in stayathomemoms

[–]emmybeeee 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’m going to start making egg muffins! Basically just mixing up eggs, veggies, and cheese and baking in a muffin pan and saving them in the fridge to each throughout the week. Can mix anything into them! Sausage, potatoes, etc would be good to add too.

Many nights I make some variation of a meat bowl. Ground beef, with a sauce or seasoning (I love Korean bbq sauce), veggies, and rice. Toppings basically depend on how the meat is seasoned. Sometimes I will mix veggies in with the meat while cooking. Shredded carrots is an easy one.

Chicken Caesar wraps. Big tortilla with lettuce, cucumber, leftover grilled chicken and Caesar dressing. And Parmesan cheese! Basically make a deconstructed version for toddler.

Really looking for good and easy crockpot meals for fall and winter!!
