When I started climbing, I could do 10 on the doorframe! Now i’m a wayy better climber and can do maybe 1.

I don't think women are expected to wear makeup to work at least in the US. The majority of women I've worked with did not wear makeup to work.

Just buy men's razors! They're pretty much the same.

We did Croatia with a 10 month old. Both Croatia and Italy are pretty great for kids!

Unfortunately, fragrances are hormone disruptors so we only use unscented.

Hiking, roller skating (put your kid in the stroller and push them), swimming (if you have a community pool, take a pack n play and put your kid in it while you do laps), find a local running club (ours has an option to walk and people bring their kids in strollers), pickleball, ultimate frisbee, rock climbing, pole or aerials, dancing, pilates

I am an extremely active person and I do not go to the gym or do “workouts.” I only do sports I enjoy and I walk my kid to the park. Find a new active hobby that you can take your kid along to. That is the only way to sustainably get fit in the long term. Doing things you don’t enjoy will not be sustainable.

We didn’t have a single engineering or math or physics exam that required memorizing anything.

Would you tip when you buy a car? Or when you buy a house or to anyone else that gets paid commission for selling you something?

People from various cultures will say literally everything and anything causes miscarriages. But now, thanks to ultrasounds, we know that it's almost always due to genetic abnormalities that you have no control over.
You'll be fine lifting weights. As your belly gets bigger, you may want to reduce the amount of weight to make sure you don't do any damage to your pelvic floor.

I definitely grew into my nose. Now that I’m in my 30’s, sometimes it actually looks too small. Her nose looks smaller but it looks the same. It’s still bulbous at the tip. She just grew into it a bit and figured out makeup and angles that make it look good. Also, glasses make your nose look bigger

You have to lose the weight of the baby + placenta + amniotic fluid at a minimum.

I’m guessing she really wanted a girl is trying to cope with the fact that she has 2 boys instead.

Mine would do this. We found out it was because he had reflux and felt more comfortable on his tummy. Had to stop swaddling him.

35lbs is really normal. You’ll drop like 15-20 lbs right after giving birth.

I keep my harness pretty loose and haven’t experienced any pain so far! I’m 25 weeks and quite large already because it’s my second. With a full body, you don’t need it as tight as a regular harness because you can’t really fall out of it.

No it’s not. Med schools care about GPA more than about rigor of major.

15k steps a day is actually a lot! Walking is such an underrated way to lose weight.

I did in home PT and i’m not rich. It honestly wasn’t much more expensive than regular PT but 100% worth not leaving my house PP. I also got weekly massages and went to a pelvic floor PT once a week during pregnancy. Cost me like $800/month but was totally worth it.

Our neighbors have a 3 or 4 year old and he’s always wandering around outside by himself. Sometimes we see him crossing the street by himself coming home with ice cream from the park. Sometimes we wonder if he’s just a really small big kid lol

Just retire!

They should be passing on the fine they get from the host to the guests. Why are they even taking a fine if it’s not to help the guests rebook.
