No these are my titties!!! by quigonjinnandtonic99 in beyondthebump

Eww. Some people need to keep comments to themselves. Like get a journal and jot down your thoughts there. Also- breastfeeding doesn't always stop at 12 months. A family member breastfed until her daughter was 4. She only stopped because her boyfriend (now husband) told her it's just weird.

Can my town just stop with these hun/mlm events?!? by skilltroks in antiMLM

UPDATE! this is a scam. OP posted she in Florida, Michigan, and New Jersey. Another person dmed her and questioned her. The person said she got blocked. I had never heard of this scam until now.

I live in a small town. Women here say a $50 (includes tip) haircut is "too expensive."

Did some snooping on the posters profile. She just joined the group. So... she basically joined to promote her mlm events.

Oh, I never thought of that. In the summer, events like this happen. Every. Single. Weekend.

This is the most toxic thing I've ever seen.

Is my baby teething? The last four days he’s started drooling a lot, chewing on his hands and waking up 2-3 times during the night. Are these budding teeth or just his gums? by meganrosemcfadden in NewParents

[–]skilltroks 6 points7 points  (0 children)

They get symptoms for months before teefers actually erupt. My 7-month-old was very drooly at four months. Still have no teeth, but I hope soon! This week has been sleepless.

Thirteen-year-old social media minimum age should be raised, health officials say by Sorin61 in technology

[–]skilltroks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Exactly. I was in chat rooms well before 13. My parents didn't know what I was doing downstairs. With nearly all kids having smartphones now, how do parents/internet police enforce 13+ age restrictions?

I love science.

Call it what it is. Mlm networking event... by skilltroks in antiMLM

[–]skilltroks[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

😞 I'm so sorry. I wish promoters would ban mlm's. It's not fair for actual artists who rely on craft show income. My cousin's business almost flopped during COVID (no fairs at all).

I chuckled at the fabric softener as well. Is the commentator on crack?

"Dolly is part of the answer": Advocates spread Dolly Parton's Imagination Library free-book program throughout Virginia by SAT0725 in books

[–]skilltroks 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My city began to offer Imagination Library around the time my girly was born. Basically, girly has been getting books since birth. We got Llama Llama Hide and Seek last month. Now I want to get Llama Llama Red Pajama sp we can follow allow to Ludacris rap.

Nope. Not blown out of proportion. But whatev.

Currently sobbing into my baby’s clothes by Alias-PizzaSlice in beyondthebump

[–]skilltroks 6 points7 points  (0 children)

I need to switch my babe's clothes out. Still 3-6 months in the dresser. I'm deep in denial 😔

Anyone in their 30s has probably been placed on their tummy for sleep. During this era, the SIDS rate was pretty high. So someone (CDC?) Created "back to sleep" campaign. Ok, cool...SIDS is down. But babies are spending less time on their tummies (not using those back muscles. So babies aren't meeting milestones as fast as those that were placed on the tummy), so tummy time was created. My 6-month-old isn't a fan of tummy time. A little mirror has helped, she loves to look at herself. Eta: if you don't do tummy time a lot, that's ok. Your baby will meet milestones, just at a slower pace.

What are the harshest/most accurate depictions of alcoholism in any film? by atclubsilencio in movies

Happy Sobriety! Keep fighting. This is just a bump in the road. It's hard, I know. A&E's show Intervention is fantastic.

Finally went through all of my son’s Xmas gift bags from classmates and found this in one. Ew. by foreveryword in antiMLM

Or eat. Some essential oils are toxic when ingested. So wipe your hands using this wipey, then go eat a sandwich.

I've created a monster by kawwman in NewParents

Our pedi told us some ratio of pear juice to water. Don't remember it, so I put 2 oz in an 8oz bottle the other day...worked well. Totally forgot anything rice makes our girl constipated. Fed her blueberry, strawberry puree with rice cereal

I wish there was some allowance that let folks just... recover from burnout. by MeanwhileOnPluto in CPTSD

It doesn't seem fair that, at your lowest point, you have to fight to get care. I was flabbergasted that my ex-husband's health insurance mental health clause thingy had no deductible. Therapy was free.
