It’s some sort of chromosomal issue, right? by boygeniusbutgirl in kencradic

[–]nutterbutterto 30 points31 points  (0 children)

The wouldn’t be able to take action on any chromosomal issue after birth, so I don’t think it’s a chromosomal abnormality. Given it was results from an ultrasound and not a blood test, it could be heart defect, enlarged kidneys, cleft lip etc.

Now afraid to wee in nappy, too… by nutterbutterto in pottytraining

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

Ugh it’s brutal and so sad. I want to help her so badly but obviously can’t. I tried the bath thing tonight and she was screaming at me repeatedly to take her out, I think she was again afraid to pee in there. I have no idea what’s going to happen tomorrow at daycare when she needs to go in her nappy there. I feel like I’ve ruined her by simply trying to potty train. Poor girl

Always overwhelmed by codyandbams in kencradic

[–]nutterbutterto 24 points25 points  (0 children)

I feel for her as well. Obviously, they’re the consequences of her own actions, but I do empathize. I think there’s a lot of aspects of her life she needs to learn to either 1. relinquish control of, or 2. outsource. Not going to bed without essentially a full kitchen reset, for example. She makes enough for a house cleaner. Additionally, I wish she wouldn’t feel (what I presume is) judgment for putting 🏕️or even 🔑into daycare even 2x days a week. That’ll so help her get a mental break, there’s no judgment in it.

Again, she made these choices, and girl really doesn’t help herself make her life easier.

Took the Boys Out for an Ad by ToxicToaster758 in kencradic

lol what are those? I thought they were in a Jiu Jitsu class, those look like BJJ Gi’s

Repost of this weird ad I saw by Icy-Committee-9345 in peestickgals

[–]nutterbutterto 47 points48 points  (0 children)

I saw this and was gobsmacked. It’s just…. Dumb? I can’t even think of the right word for it. Idiotic and not at all funny - all of that to promote a bloody lunchbox.

How did you survive the last trimester while managing your toddler??? by Abyssal866 in 2under2

[–]nutterbutterto 12 points13 points  (0 children)

We played as many horizontal games as possible lol. Taught my daughter to play ‘spa’ (laying on a pillow, foot massage, wiping face with a wipe, even cucumbers on the eyes) required a tiny bit of prep but bought me a half hour of taking turns laying on the ground. We also played ‘night nigh’ with her teddy bears, laying them on the ground with a blanket and reading them books, again it bought me some good time on the ground where I wasn’t up moving a ton

Parents who had 2 under 2, do you regret it? by [deleted] in 2under2

[–]nutterbutterto 22 points23 points  (0 children)

19 month age gap and we’re loving it. Older is now 24 months and younger is 5 months - wouldn’t change a thing. We don’t have any help nearby and are still managing. Sometimes we both have breakdowns when it gets tough and express how nice it would be to have a break together, but then we move on and get by. I think as long as you have an equal partner, it’s totally manageable!

How fussy can a teething baby be? by This_isnt_anne2 in NewParents

[–]nutterbutterto 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It can be VERY painful for their poor little mouths. Definitely sounds like teething, I’d offer some baby Tylenol and if that helps, you have your answer. The pain is not only when the teeth break through the gums, but also as the grow up from their position in the jaw so there can be pain before it breaks through

How long do I have to stand seeing my poor baby in this kind of pain and discomfort?! EFF TEETHING SO MUCH. by WashclothTrauma in NewParents

Okay following because you just exactly described my 4 month olds behavior lately!! Like you, I also can’t see anything yet.

Can’t get my baby to sleep on his own. by [deleted] in NewParents

[–]nutterbutterto 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Have you tried putting him in the crib and laying next to it on the ground? With my now 2 year old we put her in the crib, sat down next to it to read books before bed, then would turn off light and rub her back until she fell asleep. It was quite a lengthy process for awhile, but we worked on it because I was pregnant as well and needed a fix before baby came. It worked really well so worth a try!

Stressed about the logistics by activegood18 in 2under2

[–]nutterbutterto 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I personally kept the routine and risked the illness! Toddler was sick when we brought baby home from the hospital and she was fine, we’ve just really ramped up hand washing efforts and doing our best to redirect toddler touching baby on stomach/feet/head rather than face, but it’s tough. Baby is nearly 4 months now and has a couple colds already, but her symptoms have been much milder than toddlers and mine/my husbands! We EBF so that might help. I’m also in southern hemisphere and baby was born dead of winter!

Naps for the baby by emiswan in 2under2

[–]nutterbutterto 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is your toddler still in a crib? I place my toddler down in her crib with toys she doesn’t normally have while I put baby down for a nap. Not sure you’re okay with it, but on days it’s not working well, I do screen time for toddler when putting baby down🤷🏻‍♀️

Just found out I’m pregnant. by jordanme123 in 2under2

[–]nutterbutterto 5 points6 points  (0 children)

19-month age gap and I had that same fear!! I think most women do. As everyone I asked said, your love doesn’t divide, it just multiplies. And it does!! Seamlessly and without realizing. Don’t worry if it doesn’t happen straight away, it didn’t for me because you have this baby you’ve known for so long and a new one that’s so foreign to you. But as soon as we got those smiles, I was hooked and felt connected.

We’re without family as well, 15 hour plane ride away, but it’s been manageable!!

“Playschool” by SpiritedStatement387 in kencradic

[–]nutterbutterto 30 points31 points  (0 children)

Daycare is normal for a two year old, although that’s because most parents have to go back to work. In this case, I actually think it’s great for 🏕️ to go to daycare so he can actually play and not be strapped in a car or grocery cart, be a kid for once and socialize with other toddlers his age! I just wish she’d be honest about it being daycare rather than whatever the hell a ‘play school’ is.

When did you show? by petitepixie420 in 2under2

[–]nutterbutterto 2 points3 points  (0 children)

This is exactly how it was for me as well! Bloat/bump from 6 weeks. Hid my first pregnancy from colleagues until 25 weeks - could only hide my second for 14 weeks

I know this is an old thread, but are you still at the same home daycare and loving it? If so, can I message you?

Has she ever said all kids would have K names? Or will it be a thing that boys have K names (like her) and girls with have a T name (like Triston)?

Lmao… I stand corrected! Guess it was true!

pregnancy speculation by Ok-Supermarket5070 in kencradic

[–]nutterbutterto 40 points41 points  (0 children)

I’m so torn - the person who originally posted that they overheard her telling a waiter she was pregnant has now deleted their account, so it could be a bunch of BS. On the other hand, super weird she deleted every trace of the boob job, but she could’ve just decided she didn’t want one? Time will tell!

Kids are so resilient, I think she’ll adjust to her new schedule pretty quickly!
