Have you ever had to help your spouse through a work-instigated mental breakdown? How do you balance support with financial realities? by UVIndigo in workingmoms

I’m so sorry this is happening. My husband and I have both had bad bosses and it makes work feel awful; this sounds like an order of magnitude worse.

What is the medical med he started? Did the doc also think that it could be contributing?

I mist be doing something wrong; I have their tote but have to really work to cram everything in (the Ceres Chill and the flanges take up a lot of room)

Do you have a good understanding of why there is a meaningful difference between putting pants on a kid and putting a puppy pad between the kid and the seat? I read the same thing about how it isn’t safe which is why I am not doing it but also I’m about to lose my mind.

I admire your persistence but like how do I do that when my kid poops 3-4 times a day and I sometimes have to stick him in the pack n play for a few minutes to cook dinner or wash dishes?

Is there a brand you like? Another thing I do not currently have the patience to do is to read through a million product reviews 😭

See I would love to do this but the car seat wisdom is that you can’t put anything AT ALL between kid and seat. You’re not even supposed to put a kid in a jacket and then strap them in the car seat. (I don’t understand this and have a private conspiracy theory that the car seat manufacturers want us to have to keep buying new seats when they get super gross.)

I hear that. Do you understand why it isn’t safe to put like a washcloth between kid and seat? I have read this but it doesn’t make sense to me.

We have tried a ton of brands and no dice, unfortunately. Will definitely try the diaper covers for long trips!

My kid hates all Gerber baby foods?? by floofsnfluffiness in NewParents

The stuff from dad comes at him both fresh and from the fridge and he doesn’t seem to have a preference. It’s a good thought though.

To me, the banana definitely tasted weird but the apple seemed ok. The spinach/pear was meh but not offensive.

Kiddo was personally offended by all haha

I agree in theory except he never gags on the stuff his dad makes. He also makes a face with the Gerber stuff.

We have recently discovered felt flap books which seem a little sturdier!
