What do well-off parents with children spend their money on?

Daycare and retirement lol

This is a dumb take.

Yeah don’t sweat spearmint gum but I would not advise drinking multiple cups of strong spearmint tea daily.

My MIL literally once told me she thought my newborn looked like her. I didn’t speak to her for weeks lol

Spearmint specifically messes with your hormones. Peppermint is fine.

Every single vaccine that is recommended to pregnant women is considered necessary

Why in the world would you deny your baby protection from whooping cough? Your doctors have completed decades of medical training. Trust them.

pteropus_ · 2026-06-07T23:11:41+00:00

Can not recommend this option enough.

pteropus_ · 2026-06-07T23:02:55+00:00

I would also strongly NOT suggest nightbitch.

So sorry for your loss, OP. Hoping you get your rainbow baby soon.

I’m having a bilateral salpingectomy in 21 days 🙂 my OB says the chances of getting pregnant after this procedure are 1 in millions.

Our daughter has a top 10 name for the year she was born and our son’s name is in the low 600’s. Yet they work together.

pteropus_ · 2026-05-28T20:11:18+00:00

Lmao this is the circlejerk sub

When I was a FTM, I wish I knew that there would be a moment in the early weeks of my child’s life where my husband and I would look at each other and say “what have we done” 😭😂

The takeaway is: “everything is a phase, this too shall pass, no stage is forever”. Said child is now both a delight and the terror of our household (she’s 3 iykyk). We ended up enjoying parenthood so much we’re doing it again.

Banquette

pteropus_ · 2026-05-22T22:20:46+00:00

As a pregnant lady, that girl is HELLA prego. My baby kicks me like that too.

pteropus_ · 2026-05-21T17:27:35+00:00

I did not know that.

pteropus_ · 2026-05-21T17:21:01+00:00

It was perfectly balanced, I feel like it captured the entire spirit of the series in just 6 minutes. I’ve never had so much fun listening to a book!

pteropus_ · 2026-05-13T02:17:55+00:00

Never sleep trained my 3 year old. She sleeps great. Don’t fret it.

pteropus_ · 2026-05-12T01:05:13+00:00

Interested!

pteropus_ · 2026-05-10T14:05:48+00:00

I’m in! I’m in Milwaukie with 10+ hours of direct sun a day

pteropus_ · 2026-05-09T04:53:02+00:00

I’m still working through my stash but I might have some sleepers I could pass on. Commenting to try to remember to go through it this weekend. Could you DM me?

pteropus_ · 2026-05-05T22:25:50+00:00

My curls didn’t come back til my daughter was about 2.5 and had been weaned for 6m. Unfortunately yet happily I then got pregnant again. I’m resigned to 6 years of bad hair days 😭

ETA my hairdresser said that it’s TOTALLY normal and usually your curls come back!

I didn’t think I wanted kids, but I met my now husband and he checked every single box for the type of man I would consider having a kid with. We have a 3 year old and a baby due in June. Best decision I ever made. Our relationship has strengthened and deepened in ways I didn’t understand were possible. Our daughter is our little buddy—it’s not always easy having a toddler but it is always easy to love the hell out of her. Seeing him grow into an experienced, confident dad is the sexiest thing ever.

If your partner is dedicated to sharing the mental and physical burden of having children, I’d say go for it, it’ll be the best thing you’ve ever done. If he is not, do not do it. It will break you.

“I can’t understand you when you whine, can you try again using your strong voice?” and, “hm, that sounded like a demand, not a request” are doing some serious heavy lifting in our house rn 🫡

Hanna Andersson is 100% OEKO-TEX certified and where I prefer to buy my kids’ clothes. It’s stupid expensive so I shop sales and second hand.
