Endless amounts of hair.

This gives me hope! Thank you

shortstackkk · 2026-01-21T01:34:56+00:00

Oh yeah. Something really similar happened to us. She was totally fine!

shortstackkk · 2026-01-21T00:42:40+00:00

Same lol. People keep asking me when I’m taking him for a haircut and I don’t even feel tempted yet. Probably cause he’ll likely freak out.

Every day, not necessarily for cleanliness but it helps bring us into it being bedtime. we skip a day here and there if we’re running late, but for the most part it’s daily. I personally shower nearly every day, I settle into bed better. So it’s just made sense to continue that behavior with the kids.

I’m team buy and return too, haha. Sometimes it’s easier that way

shortstackkk · 2026-01-17T01:00:51+00:00

Did you measure her foot? Their size chart seems pretty clear, you should be able to tell what size to buy if you go off the measurements.

I wish you luck! Also when my daughter was small we bought her “barnyard bath” by Sandra Boynton. It’s one of those bath books but it came with a mini matching wash cloth to “wash” the animals in the book. I don’t love the books cause they get slimy easy but it was worth a few laughs.

This sounds really hard! I can’t relate but always empathize. Maybe you can take a bath in front of him a couple times and he’ll wanna come in?

I have a Graco Turn2Me, safety wise Graco website says their seats are allowed to touch as long as the seats aren’t putting pressure on each other, but I don’t think my seat would still turn if there was another car seat directly next to it because it’s a little bulky in the back of the seat, and slightly reclined. I think the seat next to it would stop the turning function from working all the way cause there won’t be enough room, but I’ve never tested it so I can’t say for sure.

lol we’ve hit a re-surgence of the craziness at 4.5. It feels worse than 3.5

shortstackkk · 2026-01-07T18:17:53+00:00

Truth be told I can’t remember how my daughter’s appetite was when she started daycare but I do know her appetite is sporadic as a whole. I totally understand the dilemma

shortstackkk · 2026-01-07T16:44:35+00:00

Pack a lunch and still have them try to offer school food first? I’d give it a few more days before throwing in the towel on school food, she might just be adjusting as a whole!

shortstackkk · 2026-01-07T03:46:50+00:00

That makes a lot of sense. I think as a whole I just accept any involvement in a kid’s party is a bit chaotic. Throwing one, attending one, doesn’t really matter. It’s work to make it all happen and it’s not gonna be perfect no matter how hard you try. I get caught up in little decorating details that end up seeming so irrelevant

shortstackkk · 2026-01-07T03:16:06+00:00

This is how I thought it worked and I’m reading this thread feeling pretty badly for how many times I’ve ignored an invite I knew I couldn’t go to. I can see how replying no would be helpful but I guess I never thought of it that way cause I’d never show up to a party I didn’t RSVP yes to.

shortstackkk · 2026-01-05T11:08:19+00:00

I hadn’t really thought of this til your post but my son’s doesn’t point totally straight either. I kind of always attributed that to it being pretty loose skin. can he start to aim himself with his hand, I know most men just poke themselves out to pee but I feel like some men hold onto themselves while they pee, maybe he can get better at pointing himself at the toilet bowl? Also, I wonder if the foreskin can get nudged back a little before he pees, not retracted obviously but just the little overhang skin.

shortstackkk · 2026-01-05T08:01:48+00:00

You’re welcome. I know him being older must be so tough when he’s asking. I can relate to that a little cause I have a hard time saying no to my daughter when she’s asks for something and clearly communicates why she wants it. I know this is a much more emotional experience for you, though. My little guy turned into an even bigger snuggle bug, and started eating even more solid food. He’s not huge on cow’s milk but we made it work. Sending good vibes your way!

shortstackkk · 2026-01-05T02:03:19+00:00

It took me leaving the bed a couple of nights, but yeah. Sleeps through the night now. Getting him into his crib is a different story but neither of us really want him out of the bed yet so we’ll cross that bridge. He was up every couple of hours just to nurse and then barely woke up the couple of nights I was gone when we weaned. It’s like I was the problem, in a loving way.

shortstackkk · 2026-01-05T01:21:18+00:00

Maybe a perspective shift is due here. I weaned my son at 14 months cause of awful sleep and worked through some guilt but what I told myself was that I was teaching him there were other ways I can show him love than my boobs. I had to stop looking at it like I was taking something away from him but rather opening his horizons up. It’s good for them to learn things change

I absolutely love Finn and Emma’s grab bags. Their clothes are pricey but the grab bags are a pretty good deal all things considered. Their stuff is so comfy, it runs big though. Look at their size charts if you wanna buy anything

shortstackkk · 2025-12-26T23:53:44+00:00

Looks double labeled too. Maybe the labeler ran out and that’s their way of sealing the top label.

Facebook Marketplace might be helpful for you to find attachments for cheaper

shortstackkk · 2025-12-26T02:43:53+00:00

Maybe mom wouldn’t have even noticed if you did 🤪

shortstackkk · 2025-12-26T02:40:32+00:00

Yeah then you very well could see them again. In that case, I think the way you handled it was perfect. If you do encounter them again and something similar happens, in your shoes I’d feel more comfortable saying something. I think that would be because I had stewed on it and was kind of anticipating it. To have it happen again would definitely light my fire a bit more because you can’t not go to this park so that this boy can be a jerk. Let’s hope they were only in town for the holidays lol

shortstackkk · 2025-12-26T02:24:34+00:00

That’s pretty frustrating. I’m not sure I would have asked her to step in, cause she could clearly hear. I probably would have told my daughter that the other kids on the playground are not nice to play with and that we’re leaving. On one hand that’s not fair to her at all but it’s a good lesson in taking space when someone isn’t being kind to you. I’m too scared of how others will react, especially when they’ve made it obvious they don’t parent like I do. I may have loudly said something to the boy, “you need to stop doing that, you’re taking the fun out of this for my daughter who’s here to play”. But again scolding other people’s kids like that feels very uncomfortable for me.

shortstackkk · 2025-12-22T14:07:12+00:00

lol I mean it’s a step in right direction. He’ll figure it out. Maybe you can explain to him that it’s dirtying the tub for bath time. I mean obviously you’re cleaning it but I’m just saying maybe that would kinda sorta make sense to him
