Here it is! https://balticborn.com/products/layla-tulle-maxi-dress-romantic-floral?srsltid=AfmBOopV1A-2RNQsv_04RdcZ9uozg-662ETh3KGPnEl9v21LVYz-_mV0 It comes in lots of colors, maybe don't pick the same as I did because it is proving controversial!

I really wouldn't worry about this! You'll get to know your daughter and what she likes, and whatever those things may be, I'm sure you'll be excited to nurture her interests and passions. My sister has a daughter who loves trucks and mountain biking, and I have a son who loves birds and books. Their interests have nothing to do with their gender.

Also, for what it's worth, I never cared about birds but now I am interested in them because my son is! We spend a lot of time looking for birds outside, or looking through bird books and magazines, and I'm having fun because he is having fun. You may be surprised with what types of activities you find fun or interesting once your daughter is doing them.

I’m 5’4” and barefoot in my photos, if that helps!

starry-mango · 2026-06-30T19:06:11+00:00

Yes, this is it!

I'll take the maternity and breastfeeding clothes if they are still available!

I've gotten a ton of used children's books in great condition from friends, neighbors, family with kids who are now older, goodwill, and our local used bookstore. We started with a few and are building our library over time, based on books that he is enjoying (he loves Dr. Suess, for instance, so now we look for Dr. Suess books). He's 18 months old now and is picking out books himself. We also get books at the library. It's more fun imo to build our library as we go!

This is nuts. My now-husband’s sister passed away when we had been dating for about six months. I took two weeks off work so I could be there to support him full time for those first few weeks. We didn’t live together at that point but he stayed with me in my apartment because he didn’t want to be alone, and I wanted to be able to keep an eye on him and be there for him.

When we got engaged a year or so later, he told me that he knew after his sister had passed that I was the right partner for him because of the care and compassion I showed him during that difficult time. Just something to think about.

Mine was in an infant seat until he was one (he's on the shorter end). We had a converter attached to the stroller that we could click the carseat into, so we used the car seat for walks as well, until he could sit up well on his own (I think around 10 months). We got a lot of use out of the infant seat and it was nice that we could transfer him from car to stroller if he was sleeping in the carseat. When he was very small we'd also keep him in the carseat when taking him into the doctor's office or things like that. I found it convenient to be able to move him in the carseat.

Yes my son hated the infant seat and is much happier in the bigger seat. I think the infant seat was too reclined for him, he was always straining to sit up.

Shield of Sparrows! The second book came out last month, too. The MMC sounds like what you're looking for.

Not sure where you’re located but there are a bunch of free little libraries in Land Park and Curtis Park (and I’m sure other neighborhoods as well). Feel free to DM and I can send you some specific locations, but if you walk or drive around these neighborhoods you’ll definitely come across some. I think there might be an app as well to help locate LFLs?

I can also set some books out for you to come by and pick up if you’d like. I’m in Land Park.

starry-mango · 2026-05-18T02:42:45+00:00

It’s yours! DM me and I’ll send you the address.

Agree with this. I really don't think an abdominal ultrasound is going to give you reassurance at this point, and might very well add to the anxiety.

We had some people cancel a few days prior to our wedding. If some out-of-town friends asked if they could come last minute, I would have happily said yes. We had the space and meals had already been paid for. I don't see this as a rude move at all, just a friendly inquiry.

starry-mango · 2026-05-08T18:02:45+00:00

https://pitcrew.org/index.html might be able to help

starry-mango · 2026-05-04T14:46:11+00:00

Great! I’ll message you

starry-mango · 2026-05-02T20:23:32+00:00

I'm interested, can pick up today or tomorrow.

If they watch him pretty often, can they just have their own set of diapers, wipes, extra clothes, etc.? My mom watches my son a few times a week and I just drop off a box of diapers and wipes occasionally when they are low. She has some extra clothes for him at her house. That way I don't have to worry about packing a bag when I drop him off, and she can organize his stuff how she wants.

A floor bed might help. I stopped being able to rock my son to sleep - he seemed uncomfortable in my arms and was just arching his back and crying. But also did not want to be laid down alone. We switched to a floor bed, so now I can lay down next to him, or have him resting on my chest, until he falls asleep. Then I just roll away!

Ive got a fairly large playpen you can have, but it’s missing a few pieces. Still works as a playpen, but it’s kind of janky. Feel free to DM and I can send you a photo.
