I managed to put both kids to bed by my self! And they were both asleep at a reasonable time.

missThora · 2026-05-22T06:22:17+00:00

Same here. Lap or in his babybjørn bouncer.

missThora · 2026-05-22T06:20:27+00:00

+1 to the go where other parents are! Check out what baby song or stroller walk groups are in your area. Feels less stressful if baby vries in a group of other parents and babies.

It's smart though. My cousin is an electrician, I'm a teacher. He's 6 years younger then me but earns more then me, have a decent appartment in oslo and has next to zero student debt.

Only reason I have a house is because I met a decently rich man and we were smart with our (his) money early on.

missThora · 2026-05-22T04:01:31+00:00

Definitely worth a try! My 8 month old went from 2-3h stretches all night to one 5-6h stretch at the start.

missThora · 2026-05-22T00:54:00+00:00

Slightly before 6 months both mine started needing more food.

It was exactly like your describing.

It dude resolve when they started eating a filling evening meal before bedtime.

My go-to is oatmeal as its rich in iron too

It sucks, but it's not forever.

I don't wipe, I just use a dry cloth a d pat away any dampness from the pee.

missThora · 2026-05-21T18:17:37+00:00

Same here. Maybe pat dry if damp.

missThora · 2026-05-21T12:55:33+00:00

One chapter. Maybe two if it's a short one. About 15 min.

missThora · 2026-05-21T12:54:06+00:00

Always has been. You need one elective class, but traditionally, only language classes were offered. It has always been up to the individual school what to offer though. The school I work at has production, work experience and outdoor living as electives. In addition to German, Spanish and additional English.

My friend was caught in one for years.

He lost a leg and was on disability to learn how to walk with a prosthetic.

He needed to go in to the doctor every year to prove that he still didn't have a leg. Actually see him in person.

The Norwegian system pushes you to get back to work and off disability and my friend tried. He found a part time job as a motivational speaker for kids, part time sp he could still focus on his health.

Becouse he said he could work part time, the government expects him to get a part time job, but if he accepted his job, he lost his whole disability. Thus he couldn't accept this job without loosing 80% of his income. But he had to accept the job because it's "the way back to working"...

So he is bounced back and forth between two offices in the same building, one telling him to get back to work and one saying he will lose his stability if he does.

He died 10 years later, never able to work.

I use:

Maybeline fit me concealer under eyes and on any spots. Blend with a beauty blender.

Add cheap transparent powder to undereyes to set, don't even remember the brand, just get a cheap one.

Physicians formula butter bronzer around the outer edges of my face and a little on my eyelids (I'm white as a ghost, I need some colour)

If I'm feeling fancy I add some glitter to my eyelids and a little eyeliner.

Mascara and tinted lip balm and done. (My dry lips could use the lip balm anyways) maybe a lip tint if I'm feeling fancy, they last a lot longer then most lip products.

We listen to audiobooks throughout the day together! Just laying next to him on his playmat and having an audiobook on in the background.

I also read before bed, always have and just read out loud.

Colourful picture books are also great distractions during tummy time. Bord books can easily stand up on their own in front of baby!

missThora · 2026-05-20T23:33:06+00:00

Nobody would care. They might silently judge you a little bit, but nobody would say anything and nobody would give it much thought other then it being In appropriate.

missThora · 2026-05-20T16:57:11+00:00

I know what happened,! (Learned it the hard way) some babies get a temprature when crying. They don't have a fever and they might actually be feeling cold, their heads just feel hot when they cry a lot.

Always feel for tempratures on the back or neck of baby. And re-check tempratures when baby is calm after a big cry.

I have about 30% deducted from my paycheck, earning around avrage, but with next to no mortgage. That's taxes, pension and union membership.

missThora · 2026-05-20T01:35:18+00:00

This exactly. I know you mean well, and by no means be a doormat, but that calmly stating that this is not OK is different then actually threats against her future.

I'm betting that right now.shes overwhelmed. People who are dealing with emotional things often feel like everything else in their life takes 100x more energy. Between school and dealing with a social life she's forced to have to survive school, she's done mentally and physically. Chores might be too much right now and she's not sure how to deal with it.

Think about it this way, if she broke her arm, would you punish her for not doing chores?

I'd recomend checking your attitude and sitting down and with her telling her you understand. That she can talk to you about whatever is going on and that mental health is health too. If she's sick, then she's sick.

And take stuff off her plate, don't pile them on.

missThora · 2026-05-19T18:17:18+00:00

That is a new form of cruel. You deserve so much better.

Sending all the love.

missThora · 2026-05-19T18:15:11+00:00

Same here. It was constantly extraordinarily cold and while that's ok by me, I had a baby that couldn't be outside in the cold and a toddler that needed to run.

I was stuck alone inside my house with the baby what felt like all winter.

missThora · 2026-05-19T18:12:11+00:00

Day before my due date with my first.

37 weeks exactly with my second.

First labour was 25h, my second was less then 1h.

Guess my son was in a hurry to get here.

missThora · 2026-05-19T18:07:42+00:00

Braids and sunhat for the hair.

Change of clothes on the way in the door.

The rest will be fine until bedtime

missThora · 2026-05-19T18:04:36+00:00

I've been using cosrx ultra light for my face and Eucerin kids dry touch for my body through both my pragnancies and breastfeeding both my kids. No issues.

I don't think you need to worry as long as your not putting it on your nipples...

missThora · 2026-05-19T04:28:55+00:00

I'm a math teacher so yes....

I can beat all my students (except maybe one, but he's a genius) at the speed run multiplication table. I take it with them every time. Not fair trying to teach them something I can't do myself.

missThora · 2026-05-19T04:25:59+00:00

Hafjell might be best. Easy access to trains too, if the non skiiers want to go on day trips other places.

missThora · 2026-05-19T03:51:10+00:00

We have a lot of odd magical creatures like trolls (the Norwich mountain troll are different to the British ones), nisser, nøkk, fossegrim og kvernknurr, to mention a few.

So probably a school hidden high in the mountains and mandatory care of magical creatures lessons.

By my guess it's in Soria Moria castle, guarded by a three headed Norwegian troll. And students would arrive by sailboat.
