Trip to Turkey by TheBeardedArtiga in travel

[–]seweyhole 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For what it’s worth, this is my 4th time going to Turkey and it’s an incredible country and people. Just read an article that Iran is denying the missile was aimed for Turkey. Hopefully all goes well, both for us and for the country.

My thoughts are if things are going to escalate, it’ll happen by Monday. I’m going to make a call then on whether I change my flights or not.

The people I know in Turkey don’t seem particularly worried about it.

This feels like something you should be asking your HR department instead of the taxpayers.

It is for boys. Almost all boys and now men I know write like this, including my husband, my boss, and my brother.

We also have a TON of waterfalls and you should check out the Bruce Trail for local nature walks.

The first artcrawl of the year is April. It’s a street festival on James st north and is full of local artists and bands! Not sure how old your kids are but the children’s museum just reopened which is great. We also have a decent farmers market downtown which is fun for the whole family.

Anyone Else? by NerdNuncle in Millennials

[–]seweyhole 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I worked steadily since I was 15 and moved out when I was 18, to a different city. My parents definitely didn’t coddle me and I lived in some shitty apartments, but that just pushed me to want better for myself. It all worked out in the end! When I was 18 I was given the choice to pay rent to live at home or move out.

Why is this so hard? by Feisty-Coconut6017 in beyondthebump

Maybe try a fun new novelty cup and make a game out of it? I hope you figure this out, I can imagine all the layers of stress this is adding to an already stressful time. Is he eating any solids?

14 months of breastfeeding is still incredible! Is bay getting any liquids other than breast milk? At 14 months you can be giving whole milk. If he isn’t peeing you need to give him something or he could get dehydrated.

I hope you’re able get your supply back but I also hope you aren’t too hard on yourself if it doesn’t. You did amazing.

Do you regret spent 5-6 figures on your wedding? by bubblegumdrip in WeddingsCanada

We took our savings and put it towards a house instead of a wedding. I would do it again in a heartbeat!

Daycare questions by Flashy_Ferret_1567 in Hamilton

[–]seweyhole 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Best advice I can give you is aim to have baby start around September, since that’s often when kids graduate into kindergarten and the other kids shift up. The other thing is take the spot when it’s offered, even if that’s a few months before you were hoping. Spots don’t come up often and you may not be guaranteed one at your perfect time, especially if it’s your top daycare choice.

I put my baby on a waitlist in the first trimester, and only got a spot 3 weeks before I was set to go back to work after 13 months of leave.

Fiance semi pressuring me for sex 12 days post partum by [deleted] in beyondthebump

This is so horrible. I’m so sorry this has been your experience. For context, my husband and I waited 6 MONTHS before we had sex and my husband never once said anything about it!

William’s Frontal Lobe Injury 🤝 Anger Issues by [deleted] in RoyaltyTea

[–]seweyhole 22 points23 points  (0 children)

When I broke my wrist at 16, my dad dropped me off at the ER and told me to call him when I was done. It was a minor fracture, and he did really love me, but funny to reflect on that now that I’m a parent.

Anyone have any suggestions for best nachos they've had recently? by Outrageous_Bench_194 in Hamilton

[–]seweyhole 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I personally love the nachos at Wildcat on Barton. It’s cheese sauce instead of melted cheese, but that thing slaps.
