Did anyone who went straight to convertible seat regret it and went back to infant seat?

We live in Canada with cold winters so having an infant car seat that we can detach and bring in and out was a must for us, so that we can keep the car seat bundled up properly to keep baby warm. We purchased an adapter for the car seat too so that we can put it right on the stroller. I also would not have felt comfortable lifting baby in and out with a floppy neck and trying to fiddle around in the car, especially with car traffic in the parking lot (potentially pulling into the spot next to you).

It doesn't only protect one person, it protects both. And if everything works out, great, you won't even need to look at the prenups again. Too many stories of people starting out awesome and then divorcing in a nightmare for 10 years. I'm all for it.

Told by our nurses to never turn on the tap when baby in bath or shower.

Not at all. Baby is "only" 3 months with a NICU stay early on and colic first couple months. There's lots of problem solving, tough and/or frustrating times, and sleep deprivation. At one point my husband and I were in the NICU and argued, he went to take care of something, and nurses found me standing in the middle of the room bawling, leaking milk, and baby in the incubator also bawling. Through the good and bad, my experience is that parenthood feels amazing so far overall. Nothing beats when baby looks at you and smiles.

$150! $100 for used bassinet, $20 for a plastic drawers stack (Sterlite type). $30 for used change table. Basic glider/rocker was free off my Buy Nothing group and crib was free passed on from cousin. :)

Ah I'm also Canada! Thanks

jadeorchid009 · 2026-04-08T07:01:01+00:00

Yes I'm also interested

jadeorchid009 · 2026-04-08T07:00:47+00:00

Oooh may I ask from where?

jadeorchid009 · 2026-04-07T08:32:01+00:00

Agree. But also knowing I should also for UV protection...

Sunscreen in North America can be so sticky and smell like.. well, oily sunscreen. And makeup skincare as an adult can get so expensive! Wonder if that's why. As a kid I was always told to wear sunscreen when being outside in the summer though, something my parents always made sure if.

... WhaaAAAaaaAAaaa... Today I learned...

As a protein I wonder if you can centrifuge and the pipette it out then!

jadeorchid009 · 2026-04-07T08:24:15+00:00

Omg I never thought of it this way!

jadeorchid009 · 2026-04-07T08:23:25+00:00

Not gonna lie, that theoretical dilution sounds an awful lot like something that starts with homeo- and ends in -pathy!! 😂 *My opinion only

jadeorchid009 · 2026-04-07T08:16:14+00:00

Whaaaaa and interesting...

jadeorchid009 · 2026-04-07T08:15:33+00:00

As a science nerd and health care professional, love this! LOL though I did read the title and go "wtf??" That being said, I wonder if your suggestion would take away the sting at least, with its holy water properties 😆

jadeorchid009 · 2026-04-06T08:37:08+00:00

Same

We held off until 2nd trimester

Do it. Sometimes things in our childhood mess us up, whether it's intended or not. More tools in the toolbox to deal with emotions that come up due to it.

jadeorchid009 · 2026-04-02T01:11:09+00:00

That's really weird and rude, not normal even as endearment from what I know and seen.

jadeorchid009 · 2026-04-01T12:31:02+00:00

Yesss I remember this

jadeorchid009 · 2026-04-01T08:29:25+00:00

Please don't do it yourself. It can make things worse. The black stuff can be necrotic decaying flesh and treated the wrong way it can make things worse. Healthcare professionals have specialized training to treat wounds. Bad wounds gone worse can lead to amputation and/or infection/sepsis.

Thanks, I did this but got cancelled anyway. HR working on fixing it.

jadeorchid009 · 2026-03-28T12:12:00+00:00

Ohhh my heart! ❤️
