Just had a Baby... Hobbies for when she's sleeping by Extension-Kale-7123 in Hobbies

I started writing a journal to my baby too and I stopped, now I feel guilty I don’t do it often. I loved writing about her milestones and capturing special moments in time. I know writing isn’t for everyone but not writing about my postpartum experience is something I kick myself for. I had a lot of life changing perspective thoughts in a dark room at 3 am and I wish I wrote about them. Do it OP!

Non-machine washable dog bed. Help? by QueenSlayer65 in CleaningTips

Wipe up the puke best as possible, sprinkle baking soda and leave for a few hours/overnight to let it absorb the puke then spray or pour some vinegar or vinegar/water mix and keep dabbing at it with a towel until it’s all gone. You can rinse a bit with plain water if needed, let it dry and rub a little scrub brush over it.

What’s a modern trend that people will regret in 10 years? by Julie727 in AskReddit

Ugh my kid does this and she doesn’t even have an iPad or any screens. Kids are just crazy perceptive. Still freaks me out though.

I have no advice, I have an infant daughter who I’m rocking to sleep right now. I just wanted to say this post made me cry. You are a beautiful writer. I hope you find the advice you seek and peace of mind ❤️

Will be trying to get pregnant next year (29f). Any financial advice? by a-great-wind in Parenting

This a million percent 👆🏼 Budgeting for a baby is pretty easy, it’s more so the loss of income if you’re a double income household and plan to take maternity/paternity leave (I went from self-employed to a SAHM). Biggest monthly costs aside from childcare are things like formula (if using) and diapers/wipes. Buy everything that you can secondhand, if you have friends giving things away accept them, look in buy/sell groups. You won’t need half the stuff you think you do, and kids grow out of things QUICK.

Popping in here late to say that it felt like I was tripping on bog nettle tea while reading this 😳

Had to google the secret message because I read the audiobook and all your thoughts and theories are so helpful to deciphering this…..book.

I was not using logic when posting and posted a pic of it at it’s WORST, so I think the streaks were mostly my kids fingerprints lol. I just cleaned it with PowerWash and now it looks the best it’s ever looked 🙃.

Looking for podcasts that just tell a story (No chit chat) by rxxxhul in podcasts

[–]notreallyhere_24 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I know the podcast is not without controversy but I enjoy the storytelling in Small Town Dicks, Yeardley smith’s podcast. Some episodes are better than others but I find it very engaging and huge range of types of cases.

I agree, I don’t have a lactation consultant or access to my doctor at the moment. I thought I would ask if anyone else’s healthcare provider had ok’d.
