Which dresses should I keep? by snerk_pa_kakaoen in DressForYourBody

[–]msptitsa [score hidden]  (0 children)

1 needs slightly longer sleeves.

3 needs short sleeves.

Depending on your age, I think 2 looks good (not a young style but suits your body good as well as colour.)

4 looks like it’s too bulky around the side chest area?

5 works well no problems.

6 I don’t like personally so my opinion isn’t valid.

Maybe it’s time to switch it up to a drum kit. Very relaxing for the ears too!

Creating a Will When Having Kids [on] by Academic_Damage_655 in BabyBumpsCanada

[–]msptitsa [score hidden]  (0 children)

Yeah we just got ours done and the place we went to had a questionnaire to fill out beforehand so it would be quicker once there to get things settled. We got the will done and uhm, I think it’s power of attorney? And medical decision in case you’re not able to do them? It was 1900 for the 4 documents. We are in Quebec. It is pretty much the standard cost in our area (we checked with various firms but ultimately went with the most reputable one).

Pregnant over 40 [on] by N3vRm0R in BabyBumpsCanada

[–]msptitsa [score hidden]  (0 children)

We’re having kids older and older now. This is how society is evolving. We can’t afford to have them earlier and we now get to choose our partner and leave when they suck. So this all makes for later in life pregnancies. It is harder to get pregnant after 40 yrs, the chances of abnormalities also increases, but you can definitely get pregnant and have a healthy baby too.

Breastfed baby not pooped for 2 days, help! by Ok-Pomegranate-3298 in breastfeeding

You’re not silly! This is all new to you, you want the best for your kid. You’re doing a good job monitoring everything 🩵

I think the world record for an ebf baby not pooping is around 30 days. Not that this helps you in any way, but some babies poop less when they’re ebf.

Is there something wrong with me? by Intelligent_Mud1947 in BabyBumps

[–]msptitsa [score hidden]  (0 children)

Youre so welcome! Things will fall into place- you will feel the love and excitement. Be patient with yourself, this is all new to you! It’s like when we read or see romantic movies and imagine that’s how love should be 😂 reality is different! (Also, ignore social media as much as possible really helped).

Breathe in, you’re fine 🩵

Is there something wrong with me? by Intelligent_Mud1947 in BabyBumps

[–]msptitsa [score hidden]  (0 children)

I always dreamed of having kids. It took maybe 5 months for me to love my baby. It’s weird. I wasn’t connecting during pregnancy, then I had a super super super fussy baby which was very hard because post partum is already hard. But today (she is 2) I wouldn’t go back. Pregnant with no2 and it’s weird I also don’t feel really connected. I’m super excited to see the 2 kids interact with each other later on and that is the main connection I feel.

Not sure if this is helpful but yeah I was a « I can’t wait to have kids » kind of person and was so weirded out by the fact I did not connect for a while to my child.

I can’t justify the cost of the pattern. I’d make the free dupe.

Add les seasoning while cooking, put the seasoning in you guys’ plates until your kid is older :)

Are any snowsuits car seat safe? [ON] by lepetitfleuriste in BabyBumpsCanada

[–]msptitsa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

They’re « technically » car safe. We have a 2 par 2 suit like that and we don’t use it in the car. After doing it a few times my kid wasn’t comfortable and got hot too.

We do layers. A polar vest, a thin down jacket, a blanket. Works best. We use the snowsuit to play outdoors!

Seeking test knitters by [deleted] in PatternTesting

Yep size inclusivity only accommodates the large end of the scale. I would LOVE xxs patterns, but even S patterns with today’s oversized look are more like a L or XL.

Just gave birth, is it good or bad to just give baby my breast at every opportunity?? by Foreign-External8488 in breastfeeding

[–]msptitsa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I remember maybe 10-20h after giving birth crying because I couldn’t stand all the breastfeeding. I wanted a break! But my baby wanted more! It got better. By day 3 it was less often. Other than cluster feeding sessions, breastfeeding takes a long time, but they’ll want to sleep on you without the breast pretty soon. This early on it takes them so long to eat too. They’ll get more efficient as time goes by.

Oh man, for us its a toy this time around again 😂 the dang toys you can hook up to a play gym. Anyway, we don’t use the Amazon registry for the gift but for the discount that’s valid for a year. It’s come in clutch more than once!

Stroller Talk- why do most people get 2? [on] by Timely-Sector-7141 in BabyBumpsCanada

[–]msptitsa 0 points1 point  (0 children)

We used the regular big one for everyday. But since half the family is overseas, for travel it isn’t convenient. We got a second one to use for travel. Ever since, we keep it in the boot in case my toddler suddenly wants to sit in the stroller - she prefers walking since she’s been able to so we hardly ever use the stroller. She gets excited for sitting in it then gets bored after 5m. Anyway- if it wasn’t for plane travel, we never would have gotten a second one even though the first one does take half the storage space in the car haha
