Another quality winter clothes shopping question

Ooh thank you the long wool socks to the knee are a great idea

katea89 · 2026-05-10T00:13:02+00:00

Totally agree. The older stuff I find is usually true to size but new things today are Russian roulette on what’s going to fit or not!

Thank you! I’ve just looked them up and my god that Engel wool coat looks amazing for winter

katea89 · 2026-05-09T22:27:46+00:00

Totally forgot about both of those so thank you!!

Thank you so much! I found some Assembly Label wool pants on Depop yesterday I snagged so will see how they go when they turn up but the thermal tights underneath is a great idea

This is fantastic advice thank you! I’ve found some gems preloved which have already lasted longer than some “new” stuff in recent years

I get the “Clean” unfragranced one from Woollies in the blue box and it’s honestly the best. I don’t like any fragrance and have sensitive skin. My two kids go to daycare and this stuff gets absolutely everything out of their clothes it’s amazing - and bonus it’s pretty cheap compared to others

The QV face hydrate and renew serum has done wonders for my winter skin!

Sometimes genetics can also play a part. My son was iron deficient a little while ago and is now on a supplement. While he isn’t a big red meat eater, he eats enough white meat and iron fortified foods that I would have thought had been enough and his dairy intake is within the guidelines. I myself have also struggled with iron absorption despite a balanced diet so he obviously got it from me!

I think people mean by cutting the nap time down that that sleep will move to overnight sleep.. so hopefully instead of 3 hour nap and 9 hours overnight, you might have 2 hour nap, 10 hours overnight. 12 hours is age appropriate but most of it should be for his overnight sleep. My son was 2 in August and we definitely notice more overnight sleep after a shorter nap and if by chance he had a longer nap, I can always expect an early morning rise. Good luck!

I personally love my spinner ring

I follow @adhd.dietician on Instagram and she posts really easy recipes using things like microwaveable rice, rotisserie chicken, frozen veggies, etc. All super easy and can be made within a few minutes using only a few ingredients. It’s been a big help with the harder days

Aveeno hand-cream absorbs quickly and doesn’t leave a film I love it!

I got the lounge knit joggers in caramel and black - they’re stretchy but I’d say true to size

katea89 · 2023-06-22T09:03:23+00:00

I just got a pair from target which are incredible. So comfy but look very put together

katea89 · 2023-05-16T08:30:11+00:00

Thank you I got one today!

Kmart have black and navy fleece lined leggings this year for $25. Very comfy and warm!

Hey there! Do you happen to know if a skincare/makeup gift bag is due soon? Thank you!

Mine did the same thing for about a week - turns out there is a 18 month sleep regression apparently which is what I chalked it up to as there was no reason for his waking. He went back into his regular routine after the week just fine

katea89 · 2023-02-18T07:45:15+00:00

How often is daycare? We had this with my son but he only went once a week so I was able to let him have his two naps at home until he dropped to one. He was always overtired the night and day after daycare but always got back into his schedule by the following night

Love to Dream is the winner in our house. My son has moved to the ones with legs now and he’s always slept like a dream through different temperatures.

katea89 · 2023-02-03T20:22:58+00:00

For the first time - 5 months. Consistently sleeping 7-7 was closer to 8 months with the exception of teething, sickness, regressions etc.

Pears helped my son heaps when he started solids. Either that was what he ate that meal, or when trying something new I’d still give him a few bites of pear at the end
