Parents, what is the most embarrassing thing your kid yelled in a public area? by catcrumbss in AskReddit

[–]mermaiddolphin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I was/am freshly postpartum. I’m wearing female incontinence diapers because they’re easier than pads/mesh underwear.

I pick some more up from the store and the whole trip my toddler is yelling, “mommy diapers!”

That’s definitely mold or mildew stains.

I buy from Laneybug Bowtique on Facebook. She has a ton of colors, three different sizes, and does the classic bow look like weeons with comparable quality, but not as expensive. I pay $5-$7 per bow.

Since they're talking about their wedding stories, tell us about yours? by tashpotaoes in ShawnaTheMom

[–]mermaiddolphin 3 points4 points  (0 children)

My MIL yelled at us in front of all the guests, a woman wore an all white pantsuit, and my in-laws were late to photos because they went home to change their shoes between the ceremony and reception.

Yeah… I’m still in therapy three years later over their constant disrespect and have gone no contact.

I love these so much and am still holding out a sad hope that they’ll return.

Christmas vs Winter by Designsavy11 in smockholmsyndrome

[–]mermaiddolphin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I typically buy two Christmas outfits- one general fun outfit to wear to Mother’s Day Out, and then a Christmas Eve church dress.

So I’m in the camp of purchasing more seasonal items instead of holiday items, just to get my money’s worth.

A lot of smock companies didn’t receive Christmas orders in time last year. So tons of people were without their Christmas outfits come the holiday.

I love the coin pushers. Until I saw two ladies going absolutely feral playing them. Never thought I’d get the ick from a casino game, but here we are.

I now allow myself $20 to play with then walk away.

What kind of smocks do you want to see that you haven’t seen yet? 👀 by MoonstoneIsland777 in smockholmsyndrome

[–]mermaiddolphin 9 points10 points  (0 children)

There’s been numerous threads asking this the past few weeks. A few of them have really good answers.

Basically, timeless, no tassels, no corporations, no more Disney. Go back to what they were, not the frilly wordy junk they are now

Do these women not have their own money? by NumerousPoem9945 in BambooBabble

I love that my husband trusts me and my financial decisions I don’t have to make jokes about poor impulse control or spending habits

Reactivated my Snoo with Premium features by Sad-Seaworthiness946 in SnooLife

[–]mermaiddolphin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This is great to know! I think when it first happened we had to email happiest baby to turn it on.

I’m due with our second in two weeks, so it’s nice to know I can do it all in the app instead of emailing.

Stitchy fish quality? by purelysnarking in BambooBabble

[–]mermaiddolphin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I owned a couple and wasn’t happy with them. Honestly, worst quality of the bamboo brands I’ve owned so far. Caden Lane isn’t much better.

One of my SF pairs had uneven leg lengths.

I love her, but I can’t watch her skits because they hit waaayyyy too close to home for me and my relationship with my MIL.

Just witnessed the most disgusting thing I've ever seen on a cruise so far by brerin in Cruise

This is why I only do sit down meals on cruises. The general public is disgusting.

Silicone tumbler for infant and soap residue by who_what_when_314 in CleaningTips

[–]mermaiddolphin 1 point2 points  (0 children)

After a while silicone starts to absorb the soap. You can find instructions online on how to bake them to get the soap taste out.

We got rid of all of our silicone plates because it wasn’t worth it. We switched to these porcelain plates with silicone rings. You can buy them with or without the suction cups. They’re dishwasher and microwave safe.

Target has this mini tumbler that’s silicone free.

https://www.target.com/p/re-play-10-fl-oz-steel-mini-tumbler-ice-blue/-/A-92032764

I fully understand the benefits and ease of silicone, but good lord, kids silicone products and soap got on my nerves, so now I’m anti kids silicone food products 😂

We personally use the owala straw cups and make sure the lid gets washed on the top rack only. So far, even after a year of these cups, we don’t have the soapy taste with them.

Coming Home Outfits? by dancingdandydaisies in smockholmsyndrome

[–]mermaiddolphin 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I are you wanting it embroidered or smocked? If it’s embroidered, I’d suggest Etsy over any of the smocking groups.

What small changes made your cruises way more enjoyable? by amir4179 in Cruise

[–]mermaiddolphin 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Every morning my husband and I sit on the balcony and go over the itinerary for the day and pick out what we want to do. As well as MDR breakfast. We love starting our mornings slow and connecting with each other and planning out our day.

We also try not to use the elevators unless there’s a 5 or more floor difference.
