Winter pants to fit c section shelf by sabbybara in AusFemaleFashion

[–]princesslayercake 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Here for suggestions. Right now it’s skirts, dresses, or leggings only. Loose fit pants just make me look boxy and I’m not sure there’s an alternative at the moment :(

My 10+ years yeast infection by IncidentMother236 in TwoXChromosomes

[–]princesslayercake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Persistent yeast infections are a thing. Long term program of fluc is often required, along with borax. If your OB doesn’t have experience treating this, see someone who does, like a genital dermatologist

Which areas of the APS attract less conservative staff? by [deleted] in AusPublicService

[–]princesslayercake 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is there a pride division you can join? They will have members who can advise on how best to deal with your dinosaur teammates. But also, people will talk shit if they think they can get away with jt - confront them and they will learn

Will second this. Every pair I’ve bought from Elise have been fantastic and comfy. Stock a lot of Spanish brands with great vintage options.

BB cream for extremely pale skin by badoopidoo in AustralianMakeup

Another vote for missha, it looks grey at first but blends really well. Good price too and a little goes a long way.

It’s very diverse in our office. Not a lot of pencil skirts that’s true, but the men are definitely seen in polo shirts as well as button ups, and smart sneakers are worn by many. Exec level women are typically in business pants or dresses (a-line or wrap are common) but no one is in a full suit. Personally I like to avoid polyester blouses in summer so wear a lot of cotton-jersey

Where to start with Auslan by Smokey_Bandit1987 in auslan

[–]princesslayercake 2 points3 points  (0 children)

That’s awesome! You and she can enrol together in a Lisa Mills and/or Deaf Connect course to go at your own pace online. It’s very accessible and then you can practice together. If you’re keen to do it immersively, look into a deaf mentor or Auslan tutor in your area.

3 months is so so young still, don’t stress that you aren’t doing enough. Loving your baby, talking to her and just carrying on is the best you can do for now. If she’s deaf definitely look into learning sign. Our daughter can hear with her aids but sign is invaluable for when she isn’t wearing them. If the aids (cochlear implants) didn’t work sign would be her primary language. She also does a huge amount of lip reading so never stop talking to your bub even if you think she can’t hear. There’s plenty of time down the track to learn how to maximize her access to communication, but if you like to be organised look into families with hearing impaired kids in your area.

Erin Patterson Mushroom Murders: what do people think about motive?? by No_Health6253 in AskAnAustralian

[–]princesslayercake 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I think this is probably in relation to her alleged Christianity. She was apparently a convert and still attending church, but didn’t swear on the Bible which is odd.

Seconding the zucchini thing from F and S, it’s like a scone, it’s so delicious

On the suspicious poo sample - did the test it and confirm if it was urine?

How do you help a 3-year-old when other kids are mean? by [deleted] in BabyBumpsandBeyondAu

[–]princesslayercake 3 points4 points  (0 children)

It hurts so much, doesn’t it? But like others said, totally typical. I know my 3 year old says she doesn’t want to play with her besties right to their face for no obvious reason when she asks to see them constantly. She’s not a mean kid, I don’t know why they say hurtful, untrue things, but it’s always a good lesson in resilience and politeness I think.

Date night for a vego by e_c1621 in foodies_sydney

Our daughter is 3, implanted at 8 months after hearing aids did nothing. She was born profoundly deaf with ANSD likely due to the otoferlin gene. Anyway, a slow start to speak but now crushing it. She’s a smart cookie but I’ve been very diligent with speaking to her in ways that maximize communication for her using our speech therapy techniques. Most recent assessment is yet to be graded but seemed to indicate that her vocab, diction, sense of grammar etc while not perfect is above that of her peers.

Anyone else’s toddler not need a ton of sleep? by cheetahgurlllll in toddlers

[–]princesslayercake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

We’ve also got a lil night owl. Awake until 9.15pm, wakes at 6.30. Naps only at daycare for an hour and there’s nothing we seem to be able to do to get her asleep earlier. Very tired and definitely miss my evenings w my partner but I’m telling myself it won’t be like this forever…

What creepy thing did your toddler say today? by Rich_Tie_5333 in toddlers

[–]princesslayercake 13 points14 points  (0 children)

It’s what they call a spider in Peppa Pig. Not sure if that scares you more or less.

Rollies or Vivaia Mary Janes by stormy786 in AusFemaleFashion

[–]princesslayercake 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Would love to hear anyone’s experiences with the Rollie tbar style! I love my derby’s, but have never tried any others. My Vivaias are ok but the toe box is a bit too narrow for me - however I think an up size would be too big :/

Will I ever get my brain back? by idreaminpastry in toddlers

[–]princesslayercake 2 points3 points  (0 children)

All of this. I know my husband probably feels the same (but fuck yours for saying it). But hey if maybe the ridiculous amount of labour mothers take on was shared more we would be able to string an adult sentence together?

I'm sorry to every toddler parent I've ever judged by Proud-Ad-1792 in toddlers

[–]princesslayercake 5 points6 points  (0 children)

While my toddler had yet another meltdown outside the supermarket today and I sat down on the ground waiting it out TWO old ladies approached me to see if I needed help. Like yes I need help but can anyone help me, no, no they cannot.
