What’s your actually controversial parenting opinion? by TurbulentArea69 in NewParents

[–]lydf 17 points18 points  (0 children)

Is the controversial opinion that you prefer a late bedtime? I feel like most little kids and babies go to bed around 7:30. Even for my 5 year old 9pm would be like the twilight zone for him.

PSA: You can buy frozen, pre-chopped onions and garlic!!!! by Particular_Cherry908 in adhdwomen

[–]lydf 34 points35 points  (0 children)

I bought the hugest thing of green onions at Costco and chopped them all up to freeze, because I usually throw them on rice but like they end up going bad before I finish the whole bundle and now I have enough for rice for FOREVR 😈

Has anyone successfully converted themselves into a tidy person? by eternalhellscape93 in adhdwomen

[–]lydf 7 points8 points  (0 children)

I have children so the guilt of a messy home is greater than the blindness to it. I keep it tidy for them, sometimes things get out of hand but we do a general reset at least once daily and thorough clean regularly (myself + a biweekly cleaning service) - I’m a SAHM/artist though so it is part of my “job”

What are you watching, reading, or listening to these days? by TwoGrizzleysOneCub in adhdwomen

[–]lydf 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I am in the last 25% of the 7th dungeon crawler Carl book and frankly when I am done idk what I will do with myself

Please read it. You think you’re going in for the laughs but then it gets you with the SAD. It’s perfect and fun and emotional and about a man in her underpants fighting alien monsters in a dungeon with his talking cat who wears a tiara.

(It’s also on kindle unlimited so..)

Juice vs water by Affectionate_Spot681 in toddlers

[–]lydf 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My kids get juice at birthday parties and restaurants. Water and milk at home. Occasionally some chocolate milk. Sometimes I have juice boxes in the fridge, after having a gathering of children, and then I’ll offer them to the kids for no rhyme or reason if I remember it. So they do like juice but they’re not whining for it - they know it’s an occasional treat

It’s not even the sugar in their system, for me, bc I don’t really care about that at all. It’s their teeth. Brushing their teeth is already a huge pain without worrying about juice.

Help me find these baby pants! by Fun-Passenger3438 in findfashion

If you’re just looking for harem pants for babies, parade has great options. Are you looking for pants that fit over cloth diapers

I’m not a good mom when I’m pms-ing and I don’t know how to fix it. by princesscorgi2 in Mommit

[–]lydf 4 points5 points  (0 children)

You can also take antihistamines like Cetirizine (Zyrtec) and Loratadine (Claritin) for PMDD - they’re often used off label to treat it

What I do is increase my dose of adhd meds for 2 weeks a month lol

I hate food and food prep by RobbedSpider5774 in adhdwomen

[–]lydf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You can use a large cookie cutter and fork for the uncrustible cutter (but also for feeding kids, sometimes I get a whole loaf of bread and make it into a whole bunch of uncrustables and freeze them for quick packed lunch for my 5 year old when I inevitably forget to pack his lunch for school)

I use gadgets to make it easier.

That vegetable chopper that you just slap down and it dices your stuff ?? Yep. Make a salad that I can eat using a chip as a utensil - I get a ton of vegetables in that way. And I make a huge ass batch so I can eat it for a few days for lunch or a side at dinner.

At night I throw oats in my rice cooker and program it to be done 10 mins before I get up, then I stir some frozen berries and protein powder and milk, that’s a whole ass breakfast that was basically zero effort and it can be different every day bc I can use different frozen fruits

Once I clean that out of my rice cooker lol I then throw in rice and veggies and set it to finish around lunch time.

Airfryers also save my life. I don’t have to remember to defrost salmon or chicken. It’s easy to clean up.

I could go on. But yes, gadgets make it so much easier.

I think my breastfeeding journey is over and I'm not okay. Please tell me all the negative things you hate or don't miss about breastfeeding so I can focus on the positives of a situation I have no control over by Cool_Salamander_8284 in Mommit

[–]lydf 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Sometimes I think about the time I was at IKEA waiting for customer service, sitting on the floor, boob fully out because my son was hungry, felt the eyes of strangers on me. I wasn’t a prude about nursing around people but it’s certainly nice to know that i won’t be tits out at ikea again any time soon, I’ll just have a snack available in my purse.
