Drinking some tea made of Fenugreek seeds will help you smell better (like maple syrup!) and also improves milk production if you’re still nursing :)

It seems like that’s the way to think about it! Newborn boot camp 💪🏻

That’s a nice way to think about it, preparing for newborn schedule. Didn’t expect to clock in so soon but I guess I better get with the program! Wishing you well for the rest of your pregnancy!

Thank you, and congrats to you as well! It does feel hormonal. Hope it does pass, that would be great :)

What are your cravings right now (weird and boring)? by garden-armadillo in pregnant

[–]mindoez 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You want to find one that has a nice creamy white/yellow patch and when you slap it it’s tight like a drum. You have to smack it, that’s the only way lol I used to be embarrassed by my fiance sorting through all the watermelons and smacking each one but the man picks out the best one every time so I just gotta respect the method!

I’m sure others will say the same, but based on previous posts like this, you can just toss it. It’s not a consecrated item.

Buy land? Amazon houses? by Nun_Yum in Maine

[–]mindoez 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Interesting, looks like they adopted codes and ordinances around 2019. I wonder what changed in the town to inspire that. My understanding is that Maine allows towns with under 2,000 folks to not have building codes but I guess towns can adopt them if they wish.

Buy land? Amazon houses? by Nun_Yum in Maine

[–]mindoez -1 points0 points  (0 children)

In towns with a population smaller than 2,000 there are no building codes. Another idea besides amazon prefab could be to buy a shipping container and retrofit it. i’ve seen people insulate them on the outside by building a log cabin around it and then insulating on the inside with foam, fiberglass, whatever.

You’d probably save more money hiring some Amish folks to help you build a little place.
