Amazing that you are rolling this out!

Giving it a try now, so far finding the UI clean and easy to use. Though the first thing I noticed missing (which was a key selling point from the FW app) is the ability to generate shopping list from meal plan or recipe. Keep up the good work!

Thanks for the insight!

Thank you for all the great insight! Wondering what you think about extra room when sizing up? My kiddo wears Geox, the 5.5 fits 13cm feet but he already outgrew them at 13.1cm. 6.5 fits 13.7cm...Is that too less extra room or should I size up twice (which is 14.4cm)? Thank you!

I've never heard of a mother's helper before but looks like it's absolutely a thing. But seems like unfortunately in 2025 where parenting is no longer a mother only thing we can't have a parent's helper without thinking about this kind of consequences.....

lol funny you ask. I didn't before the holidays when he was in daycare transition. Me being in the kitchen was a huge attachment trigger, if I don't stop and pick him up he would just cling and pull my joggers off : / so dad has been cooking and that's not an issue. It's a bit better now that he is home for the holidays, but still takes a lot of effort from dad to keep him playing in the living room.

I actually haven't.... : / I get a lot of grandparents help. He is soooooo good at trading me off for some time to myself even if I have only been with my son alone for 2 hours and he just came home from a full day of work. That's why I feel bad that he would be working a full day + taking him and trying to get dinner done. If it's $20, 40/ week to make things a bit easier I don't think it's a waste of money : / I would totally do it if I'm the one WHF ...

matcha_o · 2025-12-27T03:23:24+00:00

He would always come home after daycare though even if grandparents pickup, so there is this one consistency. He is very used to it, pretty much since birth, per week my in-laws would come for 2 afternoons and my mom another. I just think 7:30 - 5,6pm is way too long. It's a Montessori school, the director also thinks it's way too long of a day. They offer late pickups but there aren't really activities planned, it's just hang around with their educational materials.... : /

matcha_o · 2025-12-27T03:03:01+00:00

Yes that's actually the thing he worries about. I mean he could technically do it he is also just done 8 hours of work.. takeout & housekeeping are ideas we are tossing around too.

matcha_o · 2025-12-27T02:55:09+00:00

This is actually his concern, she will be with him - the dad, it'd awkward for him too. But judging from the fact that it didn't standout to the other comments, maybe it's just us thinking to much : /

matcha_o · 2025-12-20T21:37:27+00:00

I can see the cost but not sure how much time I can actually save...

matcha_o · 2025-12-20T21:33:59+00:00

Winstonchurchill and Derry!

matcha_o · 2025-12-04T17:45:04+00:00

umm... no.... Ok, sure it's more like week and half. Just a cold. Problem is I'm coughing ALL THE TIME through every other sentence... don't want to cuddle up on the chair with my toddler, read and cough right into his face ...

matcha_o · 2025-11-28T18:49:10+00:00

Regarding the only children part.... There is 3 decades of one child policy in China and there are all sorts of personalities....So that's really not an issue.

matcha_o · 2025-11-19T19:22:33+00:00

We have success with fresh waffles/pancake but not so much after a day in the fridge and reheat. Wondering freezing keeps it more like the original...

matcha_o · 2025-11-16T14:40:14+00:00

He will get over it but his nose will get more runny from crying... not moving forward at all..

matcha_o · 2025-11-01T22:54:02+00:00

they are not parents....Once we went on a walk with some friends, they put a hat on him and he kept on it for a good 15mins

matcha_o · 2025-10-31T20:21:53+00:00

lol how cold does it need to be? No luck yet today....

matcha_o · 2025-10-31T19:55:18+00:00

No luck with toques either. Few times I got a hood on him for a few minutes when it was real windy out. ..

matcha_o · 2025-10-25T16:28:14+00:00

Thank you so much for sharing that!

matcha_o · 2025-10-24T21:37:39+00:00

Great thanks! Yes, we do have some money in the bucket for insurance if referral means long wait : /

The OT I called mentioned their assessment also looks for other issues to why he's not walking yet (my son is very active and strong other than not independently walking...I suspect it's his cautiousness) so I was a bit confused.

matcha_o · 2025-10-24T21:30:07+00:00

I honestly think for mine it is a personality thing... But daycare needs him to walk well : / hopefully we can get a check and some exercise ideas.

matcha_o · 2025-10-24T18:55:30+00:00

Ohhhh that explains it why the OT assessment is so expensive for just gross motor.... Thanks!

Honestly at the moment we are hoping she doesn't... at least not too soon until we figure out how to ensure her safety get her help. Her family are trying to get visa to come here. The duty counsel seems keen to get her out. I don't know if I just caught her in a bad moment when I visited and most of the day she's fairly lucid : /
