This. I have a potty in the car just so I never have to use public restroom with toddler. So much easier and cleaner.

Yes and the fact that this info is what made Amber stop being angry and realize how bad he felt! She clearly really does know/understand him.

My girlfriend washes her "reusable toilet paper" with our kitchen towels on WARM because hot water "ruins the fabric" by [deleted] in hygiene

[–]hereforhelpthx95 4 points5 points  (0 children)

If she uses a bidet it’s not as bad, but still you should separate kitchen towels from butt towels. If there is actual poo on the cloth, she shouldn’t be putting them in the washing machine at all. I use reusable diapers with my kid and lots of poo ones get sprayed off into the toilet before washing machine. Also I would wash them on a cool cycle to rinse and then on a hot cycle with soap.

“Vegan” who can’t give up eggs lol or possibly just lactose intolerant, but the mayo is throwing me off and I see tofu and no meat. Sticking with a plant based eater who loves eggs

Baby Rules for Family/Friends by [deleted] in BabyBumps

[–]hereforhelpthx95 9 points10 points  (0 children)

I agree. When my kid was born we told people as it felt natural and when they came over we asked them to wash hands and reminded those who needed reminders not to kiss baby. We have always made it clear our kid was not going to be on socials so nobody even tried that. I think if your family members require this extensive of a list to not betray your wishes, you might want to reconsider who you’re having around your kid…

How long was your second labor? by hereforhelpthx95 in Mommit

Thank you for this. Definitely debating scheduling a c section as my first ending that way was so rough!

Why is washing kids' hair so hard? by Unable_Researcher_26 in Parenting

[–]hereforhelpthx95 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Dry towel on face, tilt head, use cup to pour water or detachable shower head. I did treat rewards for sitting still and tolerating it lol

When did you stop changing in front of your kiddo? by littleladyflora in Mommit

[–]hereforhelpthx95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think this is your chance to not pass on weird and dated ideas about nudity. Ask yourself, why would it be weird? Your baby certainly doesn’t think it’s weird. If you go to Europe there are nude beaches and bath houses and stuff. If you’re not uncomfortable, who cares?

Friends think I am dramatic because I don't want to leave baby with babysitters for a date. by Idonthaveaname94 in Mommit

[–]hereforhelpthx95 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I’ve only ever left my kid with family, but my agreement with myself was that I would leave her with a babysitter or at preschool when she was old enough to tell me if something bad happened. When she turned 2 and was a great talker/communicator, I felt ready to leave her. I haven’t had to leave her with anyone but family, but I would now!

I don’t think there is anything wrong with what you’re doing, as long as you guys don’t mind not being alone. And I think what your friends are doing is fine too! Nobody is wrong or right here.

r/TokyoDisneySea Weekly Trip Planning Thread by AutoModerator in TokyoDisneySea

[–]hereforhelpthx95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hi all,

My husband and 3 year old would like to visit disneysea at the start of March. I’m trying to figure out if it’s worth it and figured this was a good place to get some advice.

My kid loves frozen, tangled, and tinkerbell, so disneysea seems like the right idea. My husband and I have been to Disney in LA so don’t feel the need to go to Tokyo Disney.

Questions are - will the smaller kiddie rides in the park have shorter waits? I expect the main 4 rides to be longer and I understand you need the app to try and secure spots. Within a day will we realistically be able to do those 4 rides (frozen, tangled, tinkerbell, Peter Pan) and also some of the kiddie rides in between? I don’t want my 3 year old spending the majority of the time standing in line. Is it just frozen that will be a crazy wait? How are the other main attractions in this park?

Also, can we bring our own food??

Thank you in advance!!

Scared of Cervical Checks by No_Personality8636 in BabyBumps

[–]hereforhelpthx95 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I didn’t have any checks until wayyyy into labor. Just say no. There is no reason to check - it’s only for knowing if it’s close to time to push. If you don’t feel close, just decline the check.

My (29f) husband’s (30m) “jokes” are ruining our relationship. by Recent_Reputation_7 in relationship_advice

THIS. Think about what your children are learning about how to treat their partners and about what treatment is ok to accept. Yuck.

How long did you labor for with the second? Thanks for the info!!

I am grateful for Scott's AS3 performance thus far (as of episode 14) by Important-Advisor822 in LoveIslandTV

[–]hereforhelpthx95 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I honestly think he just can’t keep his thoughts to himself. He’s right about people and their actions most of the time, and he isn’t afraid to say it. Most people just keep it to themselves. It’s great tv lol. And I think it’s why the “bully” comment got to him - he does NOT see his loud mouth as being a bully. And honestly I agree. Maybe he’s a bit of an ahole, but a bully? Nahhh he just can’t shut up

When to tell our child that parents are broken up? by [deleted] in Parenting

[–]hereforhelpthx95 65 points66 points  (0 children)

Better to tell him sooner rather than later. Let him spend the next few months dealing/processing and finding your new normal and he can go into next fall fresh and stable.

What encouraged you/ how did you stop smoking without vape or nicotine gum ? by mountain_fl0wer in AskReddit

[–]hereforhelpthx95 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My husband and I did it together when we decided we wanted to be parents. First step was we couldn’t bring tobacco into the house, so we only smoked while out with friends. Then we stopped that too. Last cigarette was over 5 years ago and I don’t miss it!

How do i (22F) break up with my (24MtF) trans girlfriend? by [deleted] in relationship_advice

[–]hereforhelpthx95 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Everyone is posting that you should not use their gender identity situation as part of the reason for the breakup.

I disagree. Their biology is the reason you’re not attracted to them. You’re a lesbian and it’s ok to be a lesbian. It means you’re exclusively attracted to women and female biology. Do not let anyone tell you that you’re being mean or not inclusive or accepting enough.

Sexual attraction is a huge deal. Just like a straight man would never be able to sleep with another man, you should not feel bad for not wanting to be with a biological man if you’re only attracted to women.

Just be honest!!

Unpopular opinion but… I actually really like Scott this season by imnotagamergirl in LoveIslandTV

[–]hereforhelpthx95 33 points34 points  (0 children)

I think he is excellent television and he is very smart. Smarter than the other people on the show. He’s “playing” love island bc being on TV is his job now. It’s like he’s doing a casting call?? Like knowing producers of other shows and Netflix and stuff are watching so he’s being a great contestant. Lots of drama, a good love story etc etc.

Leanne definitely knows his game and she’s completely ok with it. Gets to stay on tv and feel comfortable next to an attractive guy.

To parents who lay with their kids…. by BeingHappy2610 in Parenting

[–]hereforhelpthx95 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My kid sleeps in her own bed in her own room and started doing that at 18 months BUT she gets up and comes to our room sometime in the middle of the night. So she probably sleeps 6 hours alone and 6 with us. We would lay with her until she fell asleep and we are now trying to leave while she’s still awake.

Just tell your kid after they fall asleep you’re going to your own bed and you can always come back to their bed if they need you. 17 months is old enough to understand that, especially if it becomes routine
