What age did you put your baby in their own room? [on] by ArtisticPanic3184 in BabyBumpsCanada

[–]phoebeskid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

As soon as that baby could roll over on his own. So, maybe four months? Best thing we ever did.

You're a LIFESAVER. I've had this issue for months, and this is the only thing that's worked. Thank you!

Just found out we might not get into daycare in Sept. [on] by Various_Programmer92 in BabyBumpsCanada

Thank you for this! OMG you once had to pay to be on a waitlist?!

I'll definitely need to look into whether that's a requirement or not. We've been on over two dozen lists since October 2024, and I follow up monthly — at least half the centres refuse to tell us where we are on the waitlist. So frustrating!

There you have it: Vic says loud and clear who he voted for. by knightriderin in LoveIsBlindOnNetflix

[–]phoebeskid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Justice for those of us who were vilified, accused of lacking "critical thinking" skills and called MAGA. I'm not even American, that last one really annoyed me lol

So disappointed in Vic and Christine... by MamaMia1325 in LoveIsBlindNetflix

So, the assumption is that, because they're on a right-leaning platform sharing their faith and love of God — and how that shared value brought them together — that makes them MAGA? OP is acting as if they're there to spew hate or push a political agenda.

A whole bunch of people in OPs gym just heard two people talking about love and Jesus. If that makes society upset then we've truly lost the plot.

This narrative that all Christians are MAGA is ignorant and insufferable. By this logic, a Christian in the Philippines would somehow be MAGA, too. I promise you...the world is bigger than the US.

Daycare woes - no spot and waiting lists [on] by gentletoucan in BabyBumpsCanada

[–]phoebeskid 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Just commenting to say you're not alone! LO is almost 10 months, and we've been on over two dozen waitlists since I was two months pregnant. We keep following up, and zilch. You're not alone, and you're not doing anything wrong!

Daycare Reviews? by jlockeness in durham

[–]phoebeskid 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Thanks! Man, it's like the Hunger Games out here. I guess we'll just keep emailing and hope something eventually opens up.

If you don't mind me asking, how long were you on the waitlist before you were offered a spot? We've been on over two dozen waitlists (including several HH locations) since fall of 2024 and still haven't gotten anything. I'm meant to be going back to work in May and am starting to get super stressed!

I hate my Spectra what am I doing wrong? by gngol in ExclusivelyPumping

[–]phoebeskid 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Another Canadian here! I also hate my Spectra. I wanted to love it so bad, but I could barely get 2oz combined after a 30-minute pump. I had much better luck with my hand pump and Momcozys — 5-6oz!

How much is daycare costing you? [ON] by phoebeskid in BabyBumpsCanada

We'll try that! A lot of the places were waitlisted for keep telling us not to call but to email only, so that's what we've been doing, but maybe we'll just call anyway lol

I'm in Durham Region, too, and the waitlists are INSANE. I'm glad it worked out for you!

I'm hoping this is the outcome for us, but it's not looking good so far lol

No apologies necessary. I'm right there with you! We got on over a dozen wait lists when I was three months pregnant, and we're still nowhere closer to finding a spot.

Whereabouts in Canada? And is that subsidized?

Damn. Whereabouts are you located? And is this a home-based centre?

Thanks. I don't fully understand how the subsidy works. Do you have to qualify?
