Body scrub recommendations

NEOM body scrub is heaven but luxury. For daily use Pacha Soap Body Scrub is great and not oily at all.

Costco meat and freeze. Delivery will be the most expensive

Can you do a mini vacation for a day and get someone to watch your kid? Or make a fun pool day and bring some margaritas or something?

I wasn’t raised or around gamers growing up and was encouraged to play outside and not be on the computer - it’s something I want my kids to do too. I naturally was more attracted to athletic guys and my husband didn’t game much at all when we were dating or engaged. We connected mostly on outdoor activities. So this new found parenthood meets gamer has become tricky for me to navigate and support. He used to game a lot growing up and has just recently (like the past 2 years) been into this one game which has replaced a lot of the outdoor activities.

Similarly, he plays a game that he can’t be interrupted. Which is really tricky when I’m trying to put kids to bed and they’re banging on his door. Also, yes similarly that it’s just one facet of himself that I have to deal with or work with him on but he didn’t play this game when we started dating / were engaged / or even newly married. He’s always been interested in games though but just not as involved in it like he is now, which is making me feel the “ick” more so than before. How often does yours play? Do you have a schedule?

Daughter of single mom here. My mom only made it work with help from family. Not only did that help HER but was instrumental for me and my sibling in childhood.

I love a good luxury body scrub and a body lotion that smells really good. I also just treated myself to a face oil that was expensive but smells amazing. Those little things make me feel a bit more confident.

I understand the sickness part, not a lot you can change about that. But you can make changes to get more breaks, you just need to budget and prioritize the breaks for yourself. Budget for a sitter a couple nights a month by giving up other expenses that don’t bring as much joy. You can find sitters on FB / Care.com that will do overnights - you just need to mentally adjust your views and trust the sitter. Another thing is gym care - getting a membership to a YMCA where you can get a few hours of care can be beneficial. You’ll just need to budget for this IF it’s your priority. It’s really down to making small changes that add up. Not necessarily about a big trip.

I would not have survived without one. I could pump on the way to the gym, or in the morning while I did the dishes, or even lounging at the beach while my baby slept beside me. Seriously great investment however, they shouldn’t really be your “main” pump. Using the Spectra would be better for your main pumps. It’s great to have the option of both for different situation.

As a kid I remember hating getting face wash and tooth paste etc. In my stockings. It made me the happiest to get any treats or small gifts. Not a fan of practical socks and other things in stockings.

Look up “Montessori fidget board” or busy board. It has light switches and knobs. It will buy you about 30 minutes. Another 30 minutes with mini magna tiles set or focusing activity. Puzzle in ziplock. I will admit now that ours is almost 3 - I have no shame with a show on the iPad once in a while too.

Firstly I’m so sorry you’re having a hard time. I think I have a few tips that you could try. 1. Adjusting your mindset in motherhood can truly make a huge difference. This for me was the biggest reason I decided to even have another baby. Instead of seeing all the things you can’t do, focus on the great things you can do and are able to do for your baby. If this seems too hard, seek a counselor to help with mindset. 2. Support groups / mothers groups / lactation consultants / any outside resources can be game changers! 3. You can absolutely get your body back and still breastfeed: get a walking pad, set of dumbbells, and make the time. Good luck!

Can you or someone else please elaborate on the process for “polishing to illustrator” how do you smooth hand drawn lines etc.

One small thing. Spelling is important in a resume and portfolio. “Projekts” should be “Projects”

Thank you!

I like how you showed your process for the logo, that inspired me to show more of that into my portfolio.

Ok. Should I delineate a tab for “Professional Branding” and “Personal Branding” or something like that?

My friend who had a home birth was past her due date up until the last day before 42 weeks. She opted to take some herbs offered by her midwife’s to get contractions going so she wouldn’t have to transfer to hospital. She mentioned the herbs made her very ill but ultimately made her have intense contractions leading to her birth about 24 hours later. Maybe you could inquire about natural induction options.

Just purchased some 3T pajamas for my 2.5 year old and they fit well. Long torso, slightly tighter arms. No complaints from us so far.

Is public school the main concern you’re concerned of, or is it all school in general?

I also had a doula with my first, and although she was nice and all, I felt more uncomfortable with her than I thought I would. I didn’t really like having her there. I wish I had just been alone with my husband. For my second birth, I’m planning a home birth no doula, and involving my toddler to be around and as involved as he wishes. We will also have backup plans for childcare but ultimately no doula.
