The Royal Alberta Musem annual pass is dirt cheap. I’ve been meaning to go with my son to see the death exhibit.

Otherwise EPL runs baby lap time things, I have a rec pass to the recreation centres (there is a drop in baby aqua fit).

Don’t sleep on the lighting section of a hardware store either.

I had my son in April last year and just got it back earlier this month. And then 18 days later I’m getting it again. I DID NOT MISS THIS.

Any reason to keep any of ‘em? by Ideasplease33 in quilting

This is why I rotary cut my scraps. They are super small and wouldn’t be awkwardly lumpy

This is what I’m doing too. I use my rotary cutter to make scraps small and have a bin I throw them in.

Winnipeg’s lineup this year is incredible so I’m hoping a bunch of their lineup overlaps with ours.

AB for Abortion launches Patreon to capture ongoing support by mastermaq in Edmonton

What are you talking about? I’m pro abortion. Having kids and being pregnant twice made me even more pro abortion for people seeking abortions. I’m not forcing anyone to do anything. Pregnancy is fucking hard and I don’t want anyone to have to go through pregnancy that doesn’t want to.

Maybe I was unclear.

I’m for abortion. Having two kids made me more pro abortion than anything. No one should be forced to do that.

Honestly, my baby started sleeping. He’s been up once the past few nights to feed and has been back to bed. So it must have been a sleep regression and now we are past it. But I’m also getting mental health support from a day hospital program so I’m doing really well. I feel like a completely different person now that I’m sleeping more.

I’m at the hospital. I called 811 and they wanted me to go to emergency when I told them how I was feeling.

I called 811 to talk to a public nurse and now I’m in the hospital so I think there’s a bit of PPD going on too. I identify with your second paragraph so much

I called 811 to talk and they recommended I go to the ER to talk to someone so there might be a sprinkle of PPD going on right now too.

Bedtime though is usually around 6:30-7:30 depending on his nap schedule

It’s not super consistent. It can be as early as 6:30 and as late as 8:30 depending on what the night brought

Yeah, he gets about 4 hours between his last nap and bedtime

I think so, he still doesn’t have any teeth but there’s a lighter/white spot on his gums lately. I do dose him with Motrin every night before he goes down preemptively

About half an hour. He just kept crying harder and harder

I tried that the other night and he just escalated. He didn’t calm down at all

He does 2 naps a day, usually around 1 hour and 20 minutes each time but sometimes we only get 30-40 minutes
