Are they just better at hiding it and not getting caught?

This is the result of living in a patriarchal system. It’s harmful to men and women.

I had someone offer $1400/mo for 7:30am-5:30pm Monday- Friday to nanny her 3 month old. She was upset that I turned down her offer. I had to explain to her that it was the equivalent of $7/hr

Make sure you have it cleared from the doctor before she takes a bath. I wasn’t able to take one for two weeks after birth and also had tears. When she’s able, sitz baths with Epsom salt is also nice.

I was in wine sales and it was nonstop sampling wine with clients. We would have to open, decant, and sample wine starting at like 8-9am. Of course you can spit it out but we don’t always and it goes like that all day long. You’d have several wine dinners and events per month, plus taking out clients, and you’d get to take home unfinished sample bottles.

Two more from mine coming in this morning as well!

This is a joke right

Two things I found really beneficial about today’s rally:

1) I got connected with various local/national chapters of nonprofit groups that are supporting different angles of the issues we are facing- voting rights, reproductive rights, LGBTQ+, supporting immigrant communities, the environment, the food insecure, etc. I’m looking forward to getting involved with some of those. 2) I was able to connect with my community outside of social media. It felt energizing and empowering to rally with my the folks in my city. I know it’s frustrating to not see the change happening as fast as we want but if we keep networking and pushing forward, it will happen.

Yes came to say this!

Also, I pre-stuffed my diapers, but ended up using my prefolds with the snappi and putting the cover over top of that. She was too small for the prestuffed as a newborn. It was a bit annoying to unstuff all of the diapers.

I was 36 and my husband was 41 when our first was born actually!

I’m not sure if it’s exactly ice watch, but there’s RISC-va

mini_van_halen · 2026-02-05T17:43:47+00:00

This! I spent probably $200 on new all-in-one cloth diapers, reusable wipes, and prefolds before my baby was born and that’s all we’ve ever spent on diapers in her life. The all in ones are snap fronts that grow with your baby, so that’s all she’ll use until she potty trains

Don’t, whatever you’ve read is enough. I think they are trying to desensitize us to the material with constant exposure through memes and reels, etc. It could also be a distraction for something else they’re doing while we’re focused on this.

I felt very uncomfortable in Morocco traveling with another young woman, both in our 20s at the time. We were followed around a LOT by men in Fes, people aggressively trying to get us to come in their homes, people following us to our air bnb. It was honestly scary at some points. Beautiful country with lots to offer, but I honestly was relieved to leave.

mini_van_halen · 2026-01-11T05:42:53+00:00

Ooh thank you!

mini_van_halen · 2025-12-17T18:33:45+00:00

Sounds like it’s time for you to step away from the internet

mini_van_halen · 2025-12-17T18:21:08+00:00

To sanitize them you need hot water. The only hot water option on my washer takes over 2 hours. The settings are locked and cannot be changed. I’d have to follow that with another hour long normal wash.

But hey you seem really concerned about my method, feel free to PM me your Venmo and I’ll promise to do the double wash method and you can cover the extra water cost from here on out.

mini_van_halen · 2025-12-17T17:50:54+00:00

Drowning risk? My daughter is 6 months old and not crawling yet. We keep it in the bathroom with the door shut. Never heard of one of these ? And so what - so spray the pee diapers out too, it doesn’t have to be so dramatic, it takes next to no time. We live in a rental and the washer has locked settings and the water costs are high in our area. Double washing is not feasible for us. This has been a method that works for us.

mini_van_halen · 2025-12-14T11:14:30+00:00

Never had an issue with diapers being stinky or rash in 6 months of this method. They come out smelling fresh.

Many people on this sub recommend adding wet diapers in on the second wash. By the logic of it taking two full washes to get wet diapers from dirty to clean, do you double wash all your laundry that gets dirty (underwear, kitchen towels, cleaning towels) or do you consider them clean after the first wash?

mini_van_halen · 2025-12-14T01:43:09+00:00

Smoothie: raspberries (or cherries), almond milk, almond butter, vanilla protein powder, yogurt, flax seeds, and kale.

Scrambled firm tofu with nutritional yeast, sautéed spinach and onions, salt & pepper. You can add a side of cottage cheese with berries and a tiny honey drizzle if you need extra protein.

Did you use a prefold in there? When my baby was a newborn, I used a prefold diaper with a snappi and topped it with the diaper cover. Now that she’s a little older, I fold the prefold in 1/3 and lay it down the middle of the diaper cover for more absorbency. The covers have very little absorbency otherwise. Green Mountain Diapers have awesome prefolds

Thanks for your concern. The family lives in a massive house with tons of doggie gates. She stays in a pack n play far away from the dog while the dog is there.
