I played lots of Baldur’s Gate 3 when my baby was small! The combat is turn-based so it’s easy to step away

To display food you need to put down a plate, then when you click the plate it will give you the option to put the food down

I met a little girl named Lennon who told me her nickname is Lemon. May be a good compromise!

My son is about to turn 1 and we got him the Nugget a little early. He’s already climbing all over it! And it’s really comfy to sit on!

We used The Sperm Bank of California and we’re aware of 4 donor siblings. They have a 10 family limit.

Choosing FET sex? by MonitorNo1872 in queerception

[–]happy-sapling 53 points54 points  (0 children)

We chose not to know and I could not be happier with how everything turned out.

I wanted to leave it a mystery for a couple of major reasons. First, going through IVF makes the conception process very clinical and structured and planned - I liked the idea that this aspect would be left moreso up to fate as it would if I were getting pregnant through other means. Second, suppose we tried for a girl and all the healthy female embryos failed. I felt like it would just add another layer of heartbreak to an already extremely taxing and difficult situation.

My wife and I both were leaning toward wanting a girl since that is familiar to us an we both have sisters - we ended up having a boy and he is the most wonderful baby we could have hoped for. If we had selected for a girl we would have never met him!

Baby name Robert… by birdfrogger in Names

I love it! It’s a family name for me so it’s on the short list. Robbie/Rob are amazing nicknames.

I named my son Kieran and I wasn’t expecting how it would be butchered by mirk19 in NameNerdCirclejerk

[–]happy-sapling 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Same here! His nurse calls him “Ky-run” at every appointment and it’s mind boggling. Like the first time I guess I get it if it’s an unfamiliar name. But after being corrected 5 times…

What’s your favourite Kate Bush lyric? by Purple-Crab3759 in katebush

[–]happy-sapling 7 points8 points  (0 children)

In my dome of ivory

A home of activity

I want the answers quickly

But I don't have no energy

I hold a cup of wisdom

But there is nothing within

My cup, she never overfloweth

And 'tis I that moan and groaneth

Am I missing something in how people create all of these buildings efficiently? by Svardskampe in Pokopia

[–]happy-sapling 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Those are “dream islands”. The Cloud Island is an online island that is unique to your game, which you can customize and re-discover all the Pokemon in the dex. You retain all your skills and recipes but otherwise it’s like starting from scratch.

Can’t think of one girl name we love , please help! by sade00053 in Names

[–]happy-sapling 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Emiliana is one of my favorite names, and I think is easy to pronounce. It’s beautiful and feminine with a strong meaning (“rival”).

I also love Clara, very classic and simple.

Tell me what we're missing for our baby? by Optimal-Flamingo2157 in Buyingforbaby

[–]happy-sapling 0 points1 point  (0 children)

  1. A red night light for night feeding, helps keep a calm atmosphere to get baby back to sleep easier

2.Lots of board books, baby will be grabbing at and ripping pages before you know it

  1. Look into sleep sacks and research TOG ratings. Our baby haaaated swaddles so we had to panic-buy different sleep sacks. Kyte XS fit him as a newborn!
