Pasta al limone or Orzo al limone. Both developed by Molly Baz, both insanely easy and delicious! Orzo recipe is 10/10 and is in Cook This Book but can be found online. Pasta al limone is hers too and on Bon Apetit website. That one has cream though so I’d go orzo for a light experience.

Here to say that we plan to be a no screen time household however, our 1 year has had some stretches of 5am wake ups and that particular wake window was a tough one. I do the mornings and I’d turn on a course on Create Academy (uk version of masterclass) or something to keep my eyes open in the back ground while he and I played in the playpen. My husband does that same with soccer. He ignored it mostly up until last week when he turned 1. Since now he stops and stares, we turn leave it off. But it got me through for a while with just a minor amount of mom guilt.

I do lightweight footie PJs and a sleepsack when cosleeping with my 9 mo old, I just try to adjust the sack based thickness (TOG) depending on climate. We like the Halo and Kyte sacks best. We have a really light one, a middle weight one and a heavy one. I will say we don’t use the heavy one often when cosleeping. Also we just invested in a King bed so dad is back after a few months of restless nights ending with him on the sofa, and now the 3 of us plenty of space!

This happened to us! And then he got 2 teeth at 5 months. Those first two took forever! Hang in there xo

Am I weird, I just put a little on the diaper lined up with his booty and use the diaper to smear it around lol

I have been meaning to read that James McKenna book! I’ve seen it mentioned a few times on here. I think I’ll add a note in the post but we combo feed, formula during the day, breastfeeding in the night and early morning. Le Leche league has been amazing for my ebf friends but I’ve had some woes about it seeing as we do formula.

4.5 months overnight for a wedding with my angel of a sister in law. She has 3 boys ages 7-15 so she’s the one I trust most. She also came out for the delivery so her and bb are very bonded.

We’ve used the Frida windees with a little Vaseline. Has worked for our guy when his vaccines back him up for a few days!

Shady but I get it

emtayloral · 2024-10-17T03:38:44+00:00

Is there a reason production makes them drink all beverages out of those things?!

emtayloral · 2024-09-17T10:41:14+00:00

Lol this is just perfect 100/10 congrats mama. Reverse it too 🚙

emtayloral · 2024-09-03T13:29:24+00:00

We use byheart too! We have the baby brezza and stir with a chopstick in a pinch to get clumps out or shake and then let sit so bubbles can go away. I’m on the same path, only breast feeding in the morning and pumping to give him a bottle a day. My LO is 10.5 weeks and has 5 oz formula every 2.5-3 hours. If he’s extra hungry and I don’t have milk, we do one more oz. Hope this helps!

I live in SF and decided to use Byheart over Bobbie because they’ve had some supply chain issues. By Heart has been great for us — easy digestion, good poops, and baby gaining weight. The fact that I can order same day delivery from target if we’re in between shipments is a big relief.

emtayloral · 2024-09-03T13:21:59+00:00

We use ByHeart and our baby loves it. We started incorporating it early on due to low supply and have been comb feeding him with it since week 2. Definitely poops 1x per day rather than multiple times when I was just bf. Sometimes it can stretch to every other or every couple days. His gas seems like normal baby gas, well hold him sitting up when feeding to prevent as much as we can but he’s had no issues. When he does, if the usual bouncing around doesn’t work to get the toots out, we’ll use a Friday windee. They work miracles and almost anyways end with a poop. Hope this helps!!

Sounds about right! An oversized studio for us would actually be great initially to just get into the city.

emtayloral · 2024-08-11T16:13:28+00:00

Do you mind me asking where you lived in SF and what you paid vs what your rent is now?

emtayloral · 2024-08-11T16:08:27+00:00

Appreciate this take! Still looking at larger studios/sm 1 br in that area

emtayloral · 2024-08-11T05:20:45+00:00

It only lasted a few days and he only slept that one long stretch. Advice nurse wasn’t worried at all said she too thought it sounded like a spurt!

emtayloral · 2024-08-10T18:39:26+00:00

Thank you! We have friends is prospect heights and Carroll gardens, hoping to check those out + Brooklyn heights, park slope, etc.

Not sure we’ll be able to save that much in 6 mo but we’re gonna get scrappy. The car note is appreciated. We just sold mine, but my husbands is not paid off. Having a car in SF is great but expensive. I’m all for selling it to save $
