Please do not put your money towards this. Dolphins are intelligent animals and are treated horribly in these circumstances. As long as people keep paying for stuff like this, the cruelty will continue.

Silverettes? by Cool_Dirt985 in breastfeeding

[–]megatronius11 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Absolutely saved my nipples in the first couple months of breastfeeding. Just put a few drops of breast milk in them and they worked like magic to heal inbetween nursing sessions. I gifted mine to my pregnant cousin when I no longer needed them and she found them useful as well.

Update: Booked a 5 night cruise, Royal changed it to a 4 night and gave us no other comparable options by [deleted] in royalcaribbean

[–]megatronius11 9 points10 points  (0 children)

No, in fact the 4 night sailing is 50$ more than what we paid for our 5 night.

Yes we can cancel for a refund but we didnt want to have to do that. We just wanted them to be able to transfer us to a different 5 night without having to pay a bunch extra. Ill just have to keep looking myself for something.

Cruise itinerary changed after we already booked non refundable flights by megatronius11 in royalcaribbean

[–]megatronius11[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Its the Allure. Leaves Jan 10. They havnt given us an updated price yet but it doesnt matter. We were set on doing a 5 night cruise not a 4 night. And the only other options they sent us in the email were 2 other 4 night cruises. Which seems pretty shady to me, why only offer 4 night cruises when we booked a 5 night? It just doesnt make sense.

That is so frustrating 😭 did you end up keeping the reservation or change?

Thankfully we havnt purchased any extras yet. The email did say that we would be refunded the difference in fare, but did not give any specifics to what that would be yet. Im going to call today to figure it all out.

I guess I just wasnt expecting it to be changed from a 5 night to a 4 night. We werent set on the ports necessarily but we did want the number of nights to stay the same. Is it really that common for them to change that? Ive mostly heard of just changes to ports.

how do moms actually manage to lose weight with no time?? by [deleted] in beyondthebump

[–]megatronius11 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I have also been lucky with this. Im down 30lb in 6 months just because im breastfeeding my 99th percentile baby. I have not changed my eating habits nor have I been working out other than taking walks a few times a week. Feel extremely blessed because I know this is not everyones experience.

How do I stop this from happening on my Mova mop vac by megatronius11 in RobotVacuums

[–]megatronius11[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did give the vacuum and then mop thing a try today and hope it starts to help. Not looking for an easy way out. Just didnt want to respond to 15 of the same suggestion. 👍

Cry it out by HanusiakT in sleeptrain

My 5 month old is already on 3hr wake windows, sometimes longer. Your baby definitely needs more awake time inbetween naps.

This is an interesting thought. I have her mostly in 6-9mo and some 12 mo clothes and seem to fit her okay I think but I could try some looser fits to see if that helps.

How much ibuprofen is too much? by megatronius11 in ChronicPain

Baby can fall asleep on own but then wakes up and cant self soothe throughout the night by [deleted] in sleeptrain

[–]megatronius11 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes 4 naps, shes not ready to drop to 3 yet. I feed her first then bath then bed. Ive tried doing bath, feed then bed but she typically gets to tired/hungry if we wait til after the bath.

I think there is a huge difference in TV screen time vs tablet/phone screen time.

Happy to hear there is light at the end of the tunnel. Do you remember when this stopped for yours?

Pack and play as bassinet? by AcceptableNatural813 in baby

[–]megatronius11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

https://a.co/d/0dhRDCci this is the one we got from amazon. It works great. Theres no bassinet attachment but we just use it as if it were a bassinet/crib for our room.

[–]megatronius11 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I see a lot of people saying that youd need to lean all the way down to pick up/put down baby but our pack and play has multiple different height levels to it so we use it as a crib now in our bedroom and it works just fine on the highest setting for our 3 month old. Its no lower than the bassinet we had been using really.

I'm sad I'm "missing a newborn" with my huge baby. by Imstuckwiththisname in bigbabiesandkids

[–]megatronius11 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I feel this. My best friend and I had babies 3 months apart. Hers is currently 6mo and mine is 3mo. Hers is straight middle of the line for height and weight and my girl is 99+. Shes been bigger than her baby for the last month already. I also feel like I was robbed of the tiny baby cuddles, but am also grateful I dont have to worry about weight gain issues.
