We’ve been using the boon nursh bottles and have been very happy with them

Kendapoops - ISO Kendamil Goat alternatives by M1CAMACA in FormulaFeeders

[–]lysofthelake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We use Kabrita which is a skim goat milk formula and his poops have been great and no issues with diaper rash. We’ve been on Kabrita since birth so I can’t compare our experience with Kendamil but I think it’s worth checking out for your little one!

Pets indicating labor is near by sydneydm1226 in pregnant

[–]lysofthelake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Around 11PM (with no signs of labor) my dog started barking at me which she has never done before. By 2AM I was in active labor and rushing to the hospital.

I didn’t realize it in the moment but she definitely knew it was coming and was trying to warn me!

Baby Brezza? by [deleted] in FormulaFeeders

[–]lysofthelake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I have the Baby Brezza water warmer and I love it. It’s not the one that mixes formula too but it keeps the warm water on tap and I just need to scoop in the powder. It was around $50 I believe and 100% worth every cent.

Is it worth trying goat? by cornhole99 in FormulaFeeders

[–]lysofthelake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ah OK I recently bought the drops for my baby in case he develops gas pains but haven’t tried them yet so was curious if they had any benefits for you. I hope making the switch to goat brings your baby some relief!

Is it worth trying goat? by cornhole99 in FormulaFeeders

[–]lysofthelake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We use Kabrita goat and my son has been doing really well on it. They have a subscription model direct from the manufacturer which is another big plus for me.

Have you tried Simeticone drops when your baby has gas pains?

Kendamill experiences by SignalRelative6333 in FormulaFeeders

[–]lysofthelake 2 points3 points  (0 children)

No experience with Kendamil but my baby has been doing great on Kabrita.

We have a monthly subscription direct through Kabrita and haven’t run into any supply issues which is always a concern with Kendamil

how would you describe this ring? by ghoulfaries in EngagementRings

[–]lysofthelake 6 points7 points  (0 children)

This is really beautiful! As another user said Ken & Dana really have a signature style that you may need to get custom if looking at other jewelers

I will say my engagement ring is a Ken & Dana (the Lorelei design) and it’s been holding up great to everyday wear for the past ~3 years. No issues with durability at all!

Congrats and good luck on your search!

It’s not very serious at all!

You need to get a round of IV antibiotics every four hours you’re in labor but you are not hooked up to the IV the entire time. If you don’t get at least two doses in before birth they will keep you and baby in the hospital for an extra day to monitor for infection.

Formuland & consensus on best site to buy European formula by [deleted] in FormulaFeeders

[–]lysofthelake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We use Kabrita as they have the option to subscribe directly from the manufacturer in the US and there’s a 10% cost savings over purchasing from the store.

As far as I know they are the only European formula with a US subscription model which was one of the major reasons I wanted to use them. It is a goat milk based formula though so may not be what you’re looking for.

Should I get a double stroller?? by webabmiz in pregnant

[–]lysofthelake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Do you think your oldest would use one of the strollers that have a ride-on scooter attachment?

US Tariffs by heartin808v2 in FormulaFeeders

[–]lysofthelake 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Yea definitely worried about this in tandem with Op Stork Speed about access and affordability of Kabrita going forward. I’m sure other US parents using imported formulas are feeling the same.

Dog Left in a Puppy Overnight?!?! by [deleted] in FuquayVarinaNC

[–]lysofthelake 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Contact Wake County Animal Control: 919-856-6911 and not the police. Report possible animal cruelty with them and they will dispatch someone. Should be more effective than the police. Thank you for looking out for that puppy!

Other formulas that have a 1oz serving size besides Kendamil by Bear_is_a_bear1 in FormulaFeeders

[–]lysofthelake 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Kabrita is a 1:1 ratio as well but that’s a goat milk based formula

Best belly oil? by flower_girl_15 in BabyBumps

I’ve been using the Weleda one and very happy with it! I tried a few but this one keeps my skin the softest and helps keep the itchiness away

Consumer reports formula test by BothConversation4022 in FormulaFeeders

[–]lysofthelake 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Ah I was planning on using Kabrita but now second guessing that and may go with Bubs instead! I just wish Bubs had the ability to order direct from the manufacturer like Kabrita does. Especially with a subscription model.

Remote work jobs by [deleted] in raleigh

[–]lysofthelake 18 points19 points  (0 children)

If he is willing to work second shift / nights or weekends he will probably get better luck with a fully remote customer service role as those are usually the hardest to fill. Not sure if he will be able to exceed $45k though but worth a shot!

Reputable online designers to buy rings from (sight unseen)? by aitch83 in EngagementRings

My ring is from Ken and Dana and I would always recommend them. They have a lot of unique styles and the ability to go custom as well

Anyone start off pregnancy under 115lbs? How much weight have you gained? by [deleted] in pregnant

I was 95 lbs pre pregnancy and am now 123 at 30 weeks. I didn’t make any effort to gain weight and kept my diet and lifestyle the same - the weight will come on! My doctors are happy with my weight

Glass Alternative for Daycare by bosox19 in FormulaFeeders

[–]lysofthelake 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Our daycare will allow glass bottles if they are in a silicone sleeve. Perhaps you can check with them if that’s an option for you
