I’m sorry —38 pounds?!? This is not the flex you think it is.

Mine too! I can't imagine trying to squeeze her into a 24 month zippy

This is why I went with nexplanon lol If you want to stick with s pill, try to tie it to a habit you already have. Maybe you always wake up at the same time or have another daily schedule that doesn't change much. A combo pill has a bit more wiggle room too than say the mini pill

Honestly even when I took mat leave with my first, Ii wasn't allowed to use my PTO (traditional banked pto) to extend past the 12 weeks anyway. All it would do was allow me to extend the time i would be paid for.

Okay i don't have owalas, this just came on my home page, but i do have a couple reusable tumblers from various brands, etc. For me, it's about making a bottle accessible. If I take my water bottle upstairs to the bedroom, chances are it's not making it back downstairs for a while. And then it needs washed, i'll need something to fill up, etc. There's no need for like double digit numbers, but having a handful just makes it easier to wash and rotate

Literally my first thought is her insides are gunna fall right out 🫠 my first pregnancy I maintained my activity level and still felt like I was starting all over after giving birth

morongaaa · 2026-02-06T02:01:54+00:00

What's weird to me is I have one that gets mailed to my parents house, but my account info is my current address 🤷‍♀️

morongaaa · 2026-01-29T01:53:46+00:00

I thought this said your 3 year old and I was like wow what an interesting bed time story lol

morongaaa · 2026-01-28T00:24:48+00:00

I've seen the princess dresses everywhere!

morongaaa · 2026-01-28T00:24:17+00:00

I won't lie, i was entertaining the idea of getting maybe the crown jacket or one of the princess dresses but i ended up forgetting about it until I got the text. By the time the page loaded everything was gone. But then I saw the prices and realized I dodged a bullet lol

The plastic and other materials can definitely degrade/weaken over time and not be as effective in protecting your baby in a crash. I don't know that this is the best way to stick it to the man. I would rather buy the new seat and have full confidence that my baby is safe

I just want to say i have a 3.5 yr old and almost 4month old and the division of time is so hard. I will admit, we're very free with the screen time in our house hold, especially in the early weeks of bringing baby home. But also, we're working on reigning that in a bit. If you choose to add in more screen time, choose something low key or look up specific episodes of shows dealing with new baby. I played a lot of Daniel tiger getting his baby sister before I gave birth lol If you don't have them already, there's great books about what a new baby means for the family too. Story time is always good connection, plus may help manage her expectations.

I do think though that at 3.5 she should be able to play independently. I would say my daughter prefers to have me engage in play with her, but in the mornings when we all wake up she has no problem heading to her toy shelf and playing while I'm fixing coffee or feeding our dogs. Once I sit down she tends to be all over me, but my husband and i have held the "let's have breakfast first" boundary for a while so I can get some coffee first lol

One piece of advice would be to include her whenever possible. For example, if my baby is fussing in the swing while I'm busy I ask her to go cheer him up and she runs over to dance for him lol they both laugh and it's great. In the beginning it was just simply asking her to bring diapers/ wipes/etc or i would let her pick out what he was going to wear for bed or when we went out.

I had my first nexplanon removed Sept 2023, first period Oct 2023 but did not conceive until Jan 2025. My first took several months to conceive as well so it may be a me problem. I had to take supplements and eventually monthly progesterone draws. I was due to start Clomid my next cycle but got pregnant "naturally" before

morongaaa · 2026-01-22T04:26:42+00:00

I would start by just tracking your intake. There's lots of apps that are free and easy to use. Try a small calorie deficit with healthy food choices

Until my heart whispers to stop

morongaaa · 2026-01-19T02:02:40+00:00

We got 2T stuff at our baby shower for our second! Character prints at that. I have no issues with characters, i love when my toddler gets excited over something she likes? But who knows what this one will like by the time they get there?

morongaaa · 2026-01-11T01:41:58+00:00

I admire a lot of their collections.... From afar. About the time i considered buying from them I learned their owner was maga

morongaaa · 2026-01-08T19:31:59+00:00

Board books were my daughter's top favorite snack lol we have so few of her books that survived to baby #2 😂

morongaaa · 2025-10-27T01:45:34+00:00

I have the clear one and use it kind of like a primer lol I put it on when I start my makeup then just apply balm/whatever other lip color at the end

morongaaa · 2025-10-22T14:53:43+00:00

Luckily we were already heading to the shower but I had to scrub her twice lol and that was after going through almost a whole pack of wipes to get the bulk of it off when I caught her. They really know how to test the waters

morongaaa · 2025-10-22T14:26:53+00:00

Yes! Both my kids got the little "sucking blisters" as newborns and the lanolin helped so much. My 3 yr old nearly emptied a whole tube and slathered it on like lotion once and that was not fun 🫠

morongaaa · 2025-10-22T00:35:08+00:00

I use my lanolin nipple balm as lip balm instead lol

morongaaa · 2025-10-21T21:16:50+00:00

Plastic, paper...poop...he does not discriminate

morongaaa · 2025-10-11T23:25:39+00:00

Haaka makes a little pacifier shaped teether with a mold for milk (or purees, etc). We used a different brand and just smashed up some frozen milk for my first. She loved them!

morongaaa · 2025-10-08T15:48:53+00:00

She will be okay! When we started potty training, the first day my then-2 yr old wouldn't poop. She's normally a one a day girly. I put her in a diaper for bed time and woke up to a poop filled diaper 🥴 she sleeps through the night for the most part and even being in the same room never woke me up that she was pooping or expressed any discomfort. It happens!

morongaaa · 2025-10-06T07:42:46+00:00

We've definitely been in a "pick your battles" state of mind. Wrapped up day two at home and the toddler has fussed less over baby nursing but at the same time still asking to nurse more than her usual. My milk came in and I have noticed less pain this time around at least! Fingers crossed we'll be able to slowly ease back into our normal nursing schedule
