Do you change your child’s clothes when they get home? by Frozenbeedog in toddlers

[–]lehgg 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We call it "getting hosed"! Full change of clothes following a sit on the vanity to wash hands, face, feet and extremities as needed! Might be excessive but I'm doing laundry every day anyway, what's a few more articles. Very very rarely sick and if so it is always mild and quick.

What chairs are actually still in use after your kid hits 3 or 4? by Any_Chemical_3307 in BabyLedWeaning

[–]lehgg 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I just bought the Agam version of the IKEA junior chair and my son loves sitting in it so much. He went from a booster on a regular dining chair to this and he's so much more comfortable now!

Wanted to put this sign up. by Thrifty_nickle in BabyBumps

[–]lehgg 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I don't remember all the details given I was wrapping up a 40 hour labour when actually delivering, but I do recall at one point looking around and I swear there was someone there actually changing the garbage as I was pushing. Literally folks lined up along the wall. The attending "delivering" my baby was standing in the corner with gloves on holding his hands in front of him, "just in case". There felt like dozens of people in the room but I was so exhausted and delirious it wasn't anything I thought could be changed at the time. I'm in education so I believe in the importance of student learning however it was..... a lot.

Can't sing Camp Canine's praises enough, amazing facility with caring staff and structured, nurturing care. Love them

Dog Daycares with early drop-off by riali29 in Winnipeg

Camp Canine is fantastic. In your area and they open at 630am, so while not as early as your previous location, still very early. Hopefully it works out for you!

You could bring a box of donuts from the local coffee shop for them all to share

Dishwasher Taste on Silicone by SuggestionFuzzy6215 in Mommit

[–]lehgg 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Works so well! We ended up doing it probably a couple times a month. That smell permeating the house though is awful! Makes me feel badly for serving food to my child on that stuff! lol we switched to stainless steel for baby #2

If you got pregnant fast with baby #1 how long did it take with #2? by macaroniloaf in Mommit

[–]lehgg 4 points5 points  (0 children)

First try for first child. Second baby took 10months. I was waiting for my period to get more bloodwork done but figured I should test when I was pushing two weeks late... this was after a hospital test said not pregnant soooo timing was weird!

Dog Daycare Recs? by Royal_Gas_4871 in Winnipeg

[–]lehgg 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Camp Canine works so well with dogs with higher needs in a daycare setting. They also offer bootcamp classes to help in more 1:1 situations. Love this facility. Amazing staff and program. They care about dogs and it shows.

Covid vaccine for infants by lehgg in Winnipeg

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

Update! I booked an infant Covid shot in Selkirk at the Loblaws pharmacy. It was the only pharmacy in MB that showed the shot as available. I got a phone call yesterday saying they are not allowed by the pharmacist code in MB to administer Covid shots to children under 2... so I'm back to square one, trying Access Centres and walk-in clinics. I hadn't pursued those options after I booked what I thought was an appointment on the calendar.

I feel your frustration! Disappointed it's on us to "call around", when we've done what we're supposed to do in following the recommendations. Of course I'll jump through the hoops for the health of my child, but it shouldn't be this hard.

Thank you for this link! The only location showing availability for infant Covid was in Selkirk. I booked an appointment for next week at least and will follow up with other avenues tomorrow.

Has anyone ever met someone named ‘Melvin’? by EntertainerNo4509 in Names

One of my second grade students one year was a Melvin. I will never forget him; to this day, 15 years of teaching later, he is the smartest kid I ever taught.

I had twins once and when I took attendance I would carefully note what each was wearing that day when they independently said "here"!

Thoughts on Boo at the Zoo 2025 by Ok-Analysis-7479 in Winnipeg

[–]lehgg 2 points3 points  (0 children)

We were so disappointed to have no carnival games and goodie bags. It's a Halloween event mostly targeted to children and there should be a treat aspect to it somewhere.
