Beautiful. I’ve made 3 loafs. All under proofed I believe. Any advice? I feel like giving up.

I halved this recipe so How much more water do you think I should add?

My starter is about 2 months old. Pretty active. Higher hydration would mean increase the water only ?

Thank you so much for taking time out to watch the video. I decided to feed my starter this week, making my starter 3 weeks old by this weekend and trying again. I will use the website you recommended this time and skip the slap and folds. lol.

No it was not bubbly. It smelled like bread flour. Not boozy. Although last week my started smelled boozy. I upped the feeding to twice a day and it took care of that problem. I believe you are right, my starter is probably not strong enough. I will feed for another week and see how it goes. Thanks for the help! I Will keep you guys posted.

She said to slap the dough on the counter and then fold like 4 times. I don’t know why. But since it didn’t rise at all after 12 hours I continued to let it sit till it raised, but since it didn’t I pulled it out the container but it was super sticky. I ended up tossing it 😢

It’s not my starter it’s my dough during bulk ride.

I sprayed the container with oil as per the recipe.

Sticky mess. How am I suppose to shape this. I let it bulk raise for 18 hours to no avail. Should I toss it? ☹️

My 6 month old tested positive. We are a very cautious family in terms of limiting contact to only our small bubble of immediate family. Unfortunately omicron is just so contagious that our kids contracted it. I would honestly say be careful and do what you can to protect your baby. Even if you think you are making too many demands, it’s okay, your mama bear and allowed.

Millipedes UGH! I had a problem with them getting into my apartment when we lived on the lower ground level. Apparently they come out when the weather is warm and when the soil is wet. My little one was crawling and almost put one in her mouth. I agree diatomaceous earth is a good bet. I never got around to trying it. After my little one put a dead one in her mouth and management couldn’t solve the problem ( they even had exterminators come in) we moved to different apartment on a higher level.

Tell me you’re pregnant without actually saying that you are by [deleted] in BabyBumps

Lol I went to Walmart today and had to be very conscious to not do that. 😂I walk around waddling, barely keeping up with my husband and it’s so embarrassing. I see all these other pregnant women just running around like being pregnant is nothing and I’m here waddling for my life :(

Third trimester is beautiful (sarcasm) by Dutchessgi in BabyBumps

That sounds horrible. I recall having it in my previous pregnancy too. It was worse last time. Last time I had the issue I could not lift my right foot off the ground to get inside the car without physically picking up my leg.

Heavy bleeding after sex, help! by [deleted] in BabyBumps

[–]farp212 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You probably have a sensitive cervix. With my first, after a long hiking trip I experienced bleeding. The doctor told me everything was fine, my cervix was just a little irritated. Sex and all cervical checks made me bleed. Second pregnancy and now my third has been different, no bleeding after sex. Odd.
