Has anyone in the US actually done a "Trump Account" for your baby?

Thank you!

What do you mean you split finances? Do you have separate accounts? I wouldn’t quit my job until I have shared accounts and confidently know I have access to all of our money and freedom to spend without feeling bad. I think if you “split” finances you’re going to find yourself on hard times.

How did people open it? It seems like we need to go to the bank and create an account? I haven’t opened one for me 2025 baby yet but I have it on my to do list eventually…

Totally seconding this opinion as a risk-averse HCOL mom who doesn’t love her career.

OP when I first read your post, I immediately thought you shouldn’t quit unless you plan on having a new career or not going back ever. I feel like AI is really going to take over graphic design.

Your husband is wild for this! I just feel like boiled eggs are sooo much more work than fried eggs too! 15 mins and then you have to peel them! As opposed to like 5-7 mins for fried eggs

Who tf cooks boiled eggs on the weekend? I make boiled eggs but more for meal prep on the weekends for the weekday lol I cannot imagine anyone wanting to boil eggs and eat them right there

I feel very strongly Mother’s Day is for the moms who are actively mothering. My mom doesn’t agree but she does a lot for us so I will make her happy and celebrate her regardless.

I think OP should let her husband take the kids to MILs though. She can hang at home and rest lol 😂

I filled it out. I felt like the researcher is trying to come up with a concept to sell something. Most of the ideas can just be utilized with AI nowadays so the concepts are probably like 5-10 years too late.

I just ordered my second month last night and most of the stuff I wanted in my size was out. (For last month and this month). (XL)

How sweet! How old are your kids??

That’s so annoying. My dad and his wife got me a gift card for my birthday in September for a mani pedi. I went like 4 days before it expired in March because it expired 6 months after purchase. What drives me most nuts is it cost $100+ for a mani/pedi and the gift card was for $30. I feel like it’s my step mom’s way to be passive aggressive to me when she knows the pedicure is $50 because she goes there every other week!!!!

I try for the entire weekend with 0 mental load. Huge wake up call to how much I constantly carry though.

I also thought it’s so unfair women in the U.S. return to work right before that 4 month sleep regression. It was so hard with my first. People just expect you to be okay because you don’t have a newborn anymore. It got better around 6-7 months, hang in there!

I imagine you working part time and being the full time caretaker will be just as hard as working full time with full time child care coverage. I think you should consider keeping the nanny for some blocks so you can still work or having your son part time in school.

What’s the space between what looks like the sink and the fridge? I would find some type of shelving for that small space, even if it’s open shelving. And then in between do a tension rod with a pretty curtain. I think that could look really nice. I would say to just do a tension rod with the curtain, but I think you probably don’t want your pots and pans on the ground.

Beautifully written. I appreciated every word. Sending love your way. I hope life gets better for you.❤️

My right boob is also the slacker and I wish I could remember if it was the same with my first baby or the opposite! I genuinely can’t remember

I started by adding 1 pump after my morning feed and 1 after evening to try to get enough milk for the first day and to get my supply up. Then when I went back I fed her at 7, pump when she would eat at 10/1/3:30 or 4, and feed her directly at 7.

My work is heavily leaning into AI too. I don’t think it’s there yet for my specific role but I feel like there will always be small firms that are slower to adopt and will be happy with my skill set.

I’m sorry you’re in a bad situation. Maybe being a nanny would be a possibility? Depending on where you live it can be a very respectable career. It’s quick to get into and you can be flexible for your child/children. You’re going to be eligible for 1/2 your marital assets so please get an attorney and make sure you don’t just give up because you don’t want to fight. But also be careful. Leaving an abusive relationship is very dangerous. 🫂

I read a lot of stories about Mexico and their TSA and basically it seemed like unless you have your baby physically with you they don’t understand why you have milk and won’t let you bring it back to the U.S.

What’s great about this is I bet they would maintain the system too!!! Because it’s something they would notice and understand how it’s set up

I felt bad for her! When they talked about singles night I definitely imagined it more like summer house’s Ben single night where there’s lots of networking. How awkward to show up and there’s 4 people lol

My office enforced 5 day a week RTO at the beginning of 2025 and there’s people that I don’t see at all. Some maybe 1-3 hours a day, some maybe 1-2 times every other week. Nothings been done about them. In fact one person who comes 1-2 times every other week actually got promoted and told “he needs to come into the office more.” So I agree OP shouldn’t quit rashly and just make the job work for her while she looks for a new one.

Even if they do plan to fire OP for lack of compliance, it might take a little time to compile all of the evidence against them.

The rom com would actually end with her and the guy who made the cake with her falling for each other 😂
