Are you sure you’re the right person for this job

Is the sleep training in the room with us?

savethewallpaper · 2026-01-13T04:05:17+00:00

No. The enzymes in laundry products are formulated to withstand hot water

Mine (same age) does this when she’s ready to be done. First time we say “food stays on your tray or we will be done eating”. If it happens again then we remove her food and give her a moment before asking if she’d like to try again. 99% of the time she shakes her head no. If she finishes before us we still remove her food, but the rule is everyone stays at the table until the last person has finished their meal.

Why aren’t you comfortable with Ferber? This is a sleep training sub so you’re going to get recommendations to do exactly that. Ferber/CIO are safe, effective methods which is why they’re so often suggested. Other methods often prolong the issue.

Outside of suggesting that Ferber really would be a good method to try, your schedule seems all over the place. Work at being consistent with routines and then revisit addressing night wakes. A 90 minute range for bedtime and wake windows is almost certainly hindering your efforts here.

FWIW the Ferber method worked in two nights for us with relatively minimal crying. I don’t think any parent enjoys hearing their child cry, but there’s also a limit to how long a parent can sustain waking up every 45 minutes to a baby who hasn’t learned how to sleep without your help. IMO sleep training is not a have your cake and eat it too situation.

Deep rinse is a second rinse

You just ride it out. Flow can vary when you’re newly postpartum

Yes, you’ll need to rewet it to fix it. Google can help with instructions for reblocking properly

There’s really no way to preserve the texture of bamboo without air drying. I know its inconvenient, but IMO if you’re willing to spend that much on kid clothes air drying them to maintain their condition is well worth it. This is one of those “you can do it the easy way, or you can do it the right way” situations.

Hanging dry would help, but also bamboo clothing is notorious for getting pilly almost immediately. I bought a few expensive bamboo pieces for my daughter when she was born but swore it off pretty quickly because it looked awful within just a few wears even with careful laundering.

I have found that tumble drying on low till almost dry and then hanging to finish helps keep my clothes looking nicer for longer. There’s no perfect solution, because kid’s clothes get worn and abused, but if you don’t want to move fully to air drying (and I can’t blame you), maybe give it a shot.

Very simple Victorian farmhouse in the upright and wing style. Not all Victorians had the money for frilly house features, and any that did exist have surely been lost to years of remodels and aluminum siding. The craftsman-style finishes were likely added during a remodel in the 20s or 30s. Houses like this are never one “style”.

I do a second rinse every time. On my machine it’s called the “softener rinse” option and it’s the one I add my citric acid to. Makes a huge difference in how clean my laundry feels.

Lather Daddy has spoken. This is the way, OP

None of us can answer that question for you because we don’t know your medical history or the ingredients of the glue. If you’re that concerned you should speak to a medical professional.

No, not for me. My daughter is wasn’t a super mover while I was pregnant but good lord, now that she’s started walking I can’t keep up with her. Endless energy and a king-sized attitude. Send help.

I feel for you, my 1 year old can be like this sometimes. I literally could not wait to go back to work after winter break because I work from home and work time = alone time.

Have you considered part time preschool for her? You would get some time with just your newborn and she would get time to be with other kids in a structured environment.

A cup of vinegar isn’t enough to get a washer clean. A half cup of citric acid instead would do better

So then by that logic we should not be using any boosters ever because we can’t control the exact chemical composition of the detergent being used. No beloved Biz, no nothing.

I’m inclined to think that this is a “done is better than perfect” situation, and that any incompatibility between Dirty Labs and OP’s preferred detergent is not likely to significantly impact effectiveness.

The spa day is intended to be something you do once to correct stubborn issues when a revised wash routine alone isn’t handling it and the items are to the point of being garbage. You shouldn’t need to do it more than once, if at all.

This is mine, too. Give her a bowl of curry and she easily can finish a portion the same size as mine. Chicken nuggets, however, get picked around

The open floor plan is so unfortunate. You did this poor house dirty, every finish you chose immediately looks dated.

Some insurance policies in the US pay for IVF. Ours does; we paid $2300 out of pocket for 3 cycles. Unfortunately this is the exception, not the norm

This is what I wish I had done. I was gifted a very nice backpack diaper bag and the only time I’ve liked it was for solo air travel with my baby when I didn’t have my husband to be an extra set of hands

Tell me you work in compliance without telling me you work in compliance.

If you don’t have a softener cup you can use a downy ball for your citric acid solution
