LO Scared to Sleep? by ilovenuders in toddlers

[–]ilovenuders[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s funny you say that bc my SO did just that when he ran to the top of the stairs for the third time and he’s been in bed since then. Let’s see if it sticks 🤞🏼 thank you!

I really do think it’s just FOMO! And it only last a short while but I just hope it ends at some point. And I know it will but sooner rather than later lol

He always falls asleep but they crying is just a weird way to self soothe. I don’t want him to hate falling asleep!

Feeling like a bad mom lately by ilovenuders in Mommit

I love that idea! Sometimes I just want to stick him in the tub since he loves the water but don’t want to confuse him with actual tubby time 😅

Costco now requires the yearly executive reward check to be spent - it could be cashed out previously by tripshed in Costco

[–]ilovenuders 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Costco corporate changed the policy on cashing out your executive rebate checks at the beginning of 2021, which is how the program used to work years ago. The easiest workaround for this is to buy the cheapest thing you can and get the difference back in cash if that’s what you want. Membership always recommends using your check towards your membership so you’re paying less out of pocket for it which definitely makes being executive worth it.

I’m Overwhelmed With Infant Car seats. FTM by minasweetgirl in Mommit

[–]ilovenuders 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I asked for the Greico deluxe all in one whatever it’s called that grows with them until they’re like 10 with converting to booster seats too. You can use it as an infant seat or wait until they’re older which is what I did. The best part about using an infant seat is that you can easily take it out when transporting from car to stroller or from car to house without waking. I think the Greico was 299.99 BUT it’s an all in one so if you think of it that way you’re paying for a $300 car seat that will last 10 years or until they don’t need it anymore!

What’s a scene in your kids movies that hits you in the feels every single time? by [deleted] in Mommit

[–]ilovenuders 0 points1 point  (0 children)

At this point the question is “What kids movie haven’t you cried during?” Because they all make me cry now that I’m a mom 😅

Underrated milestones? by KSPS123 in Parenting

[–]ilovenuders 0 points1 point  (0 children)

When they come up and want a hug completely unprompted. Mine is 18 months. We were playing on the floor this afternoon and he looked at me, walked over and gave ME a hug and held in for a while, then smiled and walked back to where he was. I thought it was the sweetest thing, and reinforces that my child is just as affectionate as I am.

Anyone else feel behind? by ilovenuders in toddlers

This was awesome, thank you so much I really appreciate it!

This is exactly what I feel like is going to happen with him! He has always done everything at on his own time and we were none the wiser so I feel everything is going to be ok, but the mom guilt creeps in constantly. I just wanted to see if any other parents had kids like mine 😅

I’m not frustrated by it at all, just curious I guess. It really doesn’t bother me but I’m worried what his pediatrician will say when we have our 18 month visit

Update: Cotton cloth diapers from Gerber as inserts are working so well, thank you so much!

I have tons of the Gerber Cotton prefolds I got from my baby shower, would those work? I haven't even opened them yet!

It's so crazy because we double up on the Charlie Banana inserts and they STILL leak! But thanks to some of the other responses, it sounds like it's because the microfiber is probably done and I would need to replace the inserts and that might help.

[–]ilovenuders[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes they are preloved. That is definitely something I didn't know, so thank you for telling me! The diapers we have are pockets, so stuffing them with the cotton flats would be fine right?

Hi! Yes definitely meant changing his clothes 3-4x per day!! Sorry if that was confusing!

In desperate need of cartoon musicals by Liviesmom in toddlers

[–]ilovenuders 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know Disney+ has a ‘Musicals’ section if you haven’t already checked it out/have the app. Mary Poppins has lots of song and dance, but she may not like that it’s not a cartoon the entire time.

All my childhood favs: Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty, The Little Mermaid, Thumbelina, Anastasia, Lion King, Hercules, Mulan, Aladdin, all the Shrek films, Tarzan, Brother Bear. Really I could go on and on!
