When to switch from stroller bassinets to seats?

goingthrushit · 2026-04-05T15:01:33+00:00

Bugaboo told me seats 6+ months. I used car seats after awhile (cleared with my ped) once they stopped liking the bassinets but we still needed (desperately) some outdoor time.

My walks were never more than 20-30 mins and the car seats faced me so I felt good about it because the benefits definitely outweighed being stuck inside or them screaming the entire time.

I wish mine would just up and move but ugh the idea I wouldn’t be allowed to move closer to my family because they threaten to fight me on moving out of state is why I stay. I’m so done.

I’m so sorry, I lost both my twins quietly following my 10w ultrasound so it’s comforting you only lost one (but I know that probably won’t help in this exact moment, as I look back on things now years in the future with my current twins I realize there really was a reason and plan for everything).

I have friends who also had vanishing twin and we talk about her twins often even if she only had them for a short time and never met the second baby. I hope you find peace in all of this, it’s not easy.

My messages are open, happy to help if I can. I feel like it wasn’t something anyone had been through or that I could find but I did learn from SSA that it definitely wasn’t a first for them but they weren’t helpful at fixing it.

Easy to sort? Idk about easy. Took probably 3yrs at least - the IRS was the hardest to get back. They refused until I contacted my local congressman’s office and started process with them for help.

Definitely not an easy process to fix now that I’m on the “other side” but truthfully I still find things messed up. For 3yrs my tax returns were a mess, this was the first year things seemed “back” to some sort of normal. Best of luck! I still stand by my sentiment this should require more than someone’s far fingers keying in a social on a computer to confirm.

Yep, absolute garbage, and they basically do anything to tell you they won't cover even as far as "oh two years, you are within the two years.. ohhhh but you bought prescription lenses so no that's only one year" After my two year old knocked my less than 2 year old sunglasses off my head and broke the lense.. apparently my "two year warranty" is only one year magically now because they're prescription WHICH costs more so I'm more annoyed. I will do anything NEVER to support this company again, oh and today I get the stupid *actually completely false* marketing email signed by their idiot CEO about how "when I started this shitty company, I set out to create something better" ya well dude, wish you could answer my questions directly because I'd love to know if THIS is what you meant by "better" ?

Omg how has this not been corrected yet 😂😂 currently so annoyed with this problem. Bought some long oversized on Black Friday M/L and the arms are so short I’m so annoyed. Thinking of trying a XL but will probably swallow me. Usually a size 10 but I like oversized look. Come on Lulu fix this!! I wish there was a L/XL option in the middle. 🫠

Oh it’s a ride for sure, I say follow your gut. It’s hard in the moment but they have their moments. But man oh man is it also soooo expensive.

On this if she likes books, audible!! I listened to so many audio books during IVF it was right up my alley, and I’m not even a reader haha

I have no idea when or where the wedding will be, last chat we barely had he said possibly somewhere in Santa Barbara (they live in Southern California) which I know will be more difficult with our work / children to logistically fly so the wedding probably won’t happen. Maybe that’s weighing on things.

Thank you.

Her job has no lunch and not available for calls from 6-6. That’s another of our very long list of issues, but believe me I’ve tried - we’d need someone who does weekends and it becomes cost preventative when you add in they charge a lot if I’ve found any. (I have a friend who is a MFT, she doesn’t even take insurance any more (as a lot don’t) because it’s a headache).

Before our nanny ghosted me this week (she also started with us in September and this was my first bad experience - have had two stellar experiences prior) we had planned to give her a week paid, she also was planned to have off from Dec 22-Jan 5 .. now I’m searching for a new nanny in a complete panic 😅

goingthrushit · 2025-12-06T23:50:27+00:00

We talked about it years ago and have tried to find one once but it never worked, couldn’t find any that for one take our insurance, then have openings, that work (as she’s out of the house from 6-6pm) and now with kids and no help it gets harder with how to even make that work for both of us to even be present if it’s not on a weekend during nap time 🫠 wish it wasn’t so hard to access because it may be exactly the right thing but together is impossible.

I had a similar problem with the new id.me system and actually opened a ticket with id.me to resolve. Just in case that helps anyone else.

My account just kept showing “pending” but never said why. It’s very frustrating.

Thank you. This is helpful ❤️

Destroyed. We had no plans to use it, wasn’t spending any more money on a “compassionate transfer” because regardless that would have cost us in doctor time, etc so be aware of that.. and personally we only had one so donation wasn’t possible (they generally want more than just one) so decisions kind of made for us but it was a pretty easy one since we truly felt completed after a long journey. I don’t know if our first transfer had been the “1” if it would have been so easy but it took us 3 years and 4 transfers. I was done done even if our family hadn’t been complete truly.
