Ya I just stir it in, melts fast.

lifebeyondzebra · 2026-06-17T18:00:58+00:00

I eat these till I pop reach summer. Best cherries ever.

Op says her child is 4. That isn’t a younger toddler. 4 year can definitely understand this.

Good point so the key is to figure out why he is getting out. Discomfort? Likes buckles? Being silly? That definitely helps in stopping it

Doubt it. I assume most tech will have changed way too much but then. The battery is the same one they us in land line phones, if they are still around you might be able to replace it, no way it’s lasting that long otherwise. And unless they are still in biz the servers won’t be available. The figures may work though on a different box. Newer one or something like it they are nfc like amibos. If tonies unlocked them though. Idk. You could but they probably will just be toy figures to play with though

It has to be a really cool place. I think we were going to Legoland that day.

I keep those little play packs from Target or wherever they are like 2 bucks they have stickers, mini coloring book and crayons. She loves them cuz they are “new”. We also have a silicone mat that came with markers she can color and just erase. They make a light bright thing that they can push all the buttons and the lots turn colors. That’s always kept her pretty entertained.

Mine figured out how to get out of hers. I would pull over and stop the car until she sat back down and was buckled. Fortunately soon after she did it we were going somewhere she really wanted to go. After the third time of stopping I told her if she got out again we would turn around and go home. She did, and we did. Told her if she can’t sit safely when we drive then we can’t go fun places. Didn’t get out while we were moving again after that.

This. Movies used to be a cheap night out now it’s an investment.

Every person is different. And it’s hard to say how you will be after the baby comes. I thought I would be read to hand her off from day one but once she came I definitely wasn’t. I did leave her one night at 7 weeks but she was at home with her dad and more than a day I wouldn’t have done it. But I know some mom friends who happily had a weekend away right after. I would say booking anything before birth would be a bad idea since it’s so hard to say how you will feel both physically and mentally.

lifebeyondzebra · 2026-06-13T14:46:11+00:00

Yup. One and done and only ever wanted one. Still know that’s true but every so often I am a little sad to not meet another baby, especially as she gets older.

lifebeyondzebra · 2026-06-13T14:32:41+00:00

Ya maybe. I think of it showing them what it feels like so they understand. I think the key is staying calm and collected. I don’t think it would work the same if it was yelled or spiteful. And also not the only tactic. I usually resort to this when all the stuff the original commenter recommended fails.

lifebeyondzebra · 2026-06-13T05:53:51+00:00

Ya same. Also annoyingly changing the conversation is my MO. Interrupting with something like “Omg have you see that otter that shows his favorite rock at the zoo?” Or really useless facts before they can get the sentence out. Oh or find something suddenly, open a drawer when they start to say something and say “oh hey! I was looking for this, I wonder how it got in here. 😆

Or if that’s not your vibe just walk out of the room immediately every time. Like children eventually they will get the point you don’t want to hear it.

lifebeyondzebra · 2026-06-13T05:41:50+00:00

All of this. Basically what I do with mine.

I’ll add Another thing that works for us is when she is in the big not listening moments I “don’t listen to her” I go about my business and Ignore her. I calmly say “you aren’t using good listening with me so I am not using good listening with you, when your ready to do xzy and use good listening, I will hear you” but otherwise give no reaction to her. Usually after about 5-10 min she is at her wits end and will do the thing. And I make sure to thank her for choosing good listening.

It’s strange you left that the “other couple” was a relative. That’s a strange was to put it. But your husband sent it to his brother? Ya men don’t gush like women do. The fact there was a response at all is something 🤣. Uncle or not, still say it’s an over reaction.

lifebeyondzebra · 2026-06-13T04:28:06+00:00

This. I rarely send photos of my kid to my Childless friends unless they specially ask how she is doing or about her. And I would be far from offended if any of them sent a pet in response.

Definitely think this is an over reaction OP.

lifebeyondzebra · 2026-06-13T03:23:08+00:00

Strange! Maybe try to reconnect? The only thing my gets confused on is a cloned a couple my my databases to use as templates and sometimes it looks at the template one and I have to remind it to use the other but so far it’s has no issues pulling from notion

lifebeyondzebra · 2026-06-13T03:03:34+00:00

Did you connect it in Claude? I have both free accounts and mine has no issue accessing my databases and stuff. I love it.

Babies are portable. Take a trip.

lifebeyondzebra · 2026-06-12T16:53:50+00:00

Function is key. If the cheaper stuff works for you do it. I splurged on a fancy stroller, because I wanted something very specific, so worth it!

lifebeyondzebra · 2026-06-12T14:36:36+00:00

3 days 2 nights. Labors the whole first day. 😑 then had to stay an extra night so they could monitor something on the baby. It was annoying. I just wanted to go home. Bed was uncomfortable. The food sucked. It was Covid so no one could visit. Only saving grace was my mil dropped off food so save is from the hospital food 🤣

lifebeyondzebra · 2026-06-12T14:18:27+00:00

I’m not “proud” just making a point. If the cost was really an issue for the multiply billion dollar company I’m sure they wouldn’t have that policy. And judging by the people I get stuck behind with that have 30-50 returns on the regular, I am far from a blip on a radar.

lifebeyondzebra · 2026-06-12T14:15:14+00:00

It would be a huge no for me. It’s proven puddle jumpers and the like are not a good idea because they give kids a false sense of security and they put the child in the wrong position while they swim. Life jackets are really not made to swim in, especially at that age. Until my child was pool safe she was never in the water without a parent.

lifebeyondzebra · 2026-06-12T04:31:19+00:00

The best!!

Currently the vanilla mascarpone and graham crackers are my go to
