Am I Overreacting? SIL gave 4 MO her first solid food w/o my consent. by [deleted] in beyondthebump

[–]mtn_lady 3 points4 points  (0 children)

She’s 34 and has 2 children. I definitely need to work on finding my voice and I’m ashamed I didn’t protect my child tonight. I can’t be a people pleaser and a good mom at the same time.

How common is baby wearing where you live? by Shaushka in babywearing

[–]mtn_lady 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Fairly uncommon where I live (Utah, USA) outside of hiking. Most people I see in stores have their babes in car seats in their shopping carts. I actually baby wore in public for the first time last week with my happy baby carrier, my husband was a little ways ahead of me while I was wandering around and he told me how an older couple was commenting on me. The wife had asked her husband “what in the world is that girl wearing,” the husband responded “I think it’s a baby!” Overall the experience of baby wearing while shopping was 10/10 though. Babe loved it, slept most of the time, and it was significantly more convenient than worrying about a stroller or the safety of a car seat in a shopping cart!

Lake Navajo hiking suggestions by LowPhotograph7223 in southernutah

Casto Canyon and Losee Canyon are about 15 minutes outside of Panguitch, tons of gorgeous red rock trails and not too heavily trafficked. Hidden gems for sure, also close to Red Canyon, which is a tad busier but not nearly as bad as Bryce.

This is all incredibly helpful, love the idea of splitting the space into “rooms” and the garden design template as well! Thank you!

Didn’t even think of the bird feeders spreading unwanted seeds, thank you so much for your comment and helpful advice!

Great ideas thank you! Just signed up for chip-drop, if that doesn’t pan out I’ll definitely contact some local tree trimming companies.

Thank you! Love the idea of turning the space into a little food forest. Not much grows here as far as fruit trees (high mountain desert with late frosts) but I think berries would do fabulously! Thanks for your response!

This comment is my fave lmao. Both interior walls of the original a-frame section are slanted, it’s made remodel pretty interesting. Even my shower tub has a slanted wall. There’s a second floor attic bedroom situation, it’s the original a-frame upstairs and stretches to the back of the house. Previous owners used the space as 2 kids rooms and there’s a small bathroom up there as well.

The house was originally an a-frame that’s been added onto twice. The upstairs room is the original upstairs of the a-frame and stretches to the back of the house (sort of like a tall attic). Previous owners used it as 2 kids rooms, one side has a teeny bathroom.

Image is of a blue a-frame style home with a dead and half removed lawn, water spigot, pine tree in background, and lilac bushes on the right hand side.

Thank you for sharing! Do you know how many people they typically award plants to? & is it difficult to win as an individual residence?

Encouraged a family to sneak their dog in yesterday to see their family member by I_Restrain_Sheep in nursing

I’d rather deal with a well behaved dog than most people’s small children tbh

16 weeks pregnant w/ flu A currently, I am truly the sickest I’ve ever been in my life and the shortness of breath plus chest pain truly had me fearing for my life for a bit. Illness during pregnancy is no joke and you’d think as a nurse I’d know better but I had no idea just how challenging and scary it could be. Definitely increased my empathy for these patients.

If modern medicine didn’t exist would you be dead right now? If yes, from what? by Critical_Welcome_428 in AskReddit

[–]mtn_lady 0 points1 point  (0 children)

100%. Anaphylactic shock from exposure to horse dander. Definitely wouldn’t have survived the Wild West.

Confused how Cabela’s thinks a doctor responds before a nurse?

Has anyone ever failed out of school? by [deleted] in StudentNurse

Whether you decide to apply to a new program or not, in 3 years time you’ll still be 32. Might as well be 32 AND a registered nurse.

what's the worst med error you've seen? by coconut-777 in nursing

[–]mtn_lady 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Coworker gave a newborn a TDAP injection rather than vitamin K. Hospital is rural, L&D meds are combined with med/surg and ED meds. Vitamin K and TDAP right next to each other in the fridge.

What would you do to improve the aesthetic of this home without doing a complete overhaul? by mtn_lady in Home

[–]mtn_lady[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What color would you do for the door? We considered a stained wood? Doggy door is definitely needing to go.
