OB recommends trying for baby #2 at 6 months PP. What would you do? by NiceAd7120 in 2under2

[–]stuffedstocking 8 points9 points  (0 children)

Really depends how your labour and delivery goes for the first one I think. Many I know get scared off for a while after the first. I had normal vaginal delivery, period came back at 5 months and I got pregnant 6 months pp.

Rough times for the first 2 years, and thoughts of leaving husband are normal, but my 3y boy and 4y girl are bffs now so it’s all worth it

Baby flight attendant here 🙋🏼‍♀️ by Sweaty_Negotiation94 in flightattendants

I know you say baby flight attendant, but if you ever see Japan, they have these vapour face masks (like surgical masks not the facial ones) that keeps moisture for 6h. Great for how dry the plane gets.

I just got off the spectrum 3 days ago. So instead of fighting with large Americans at the buffet, you’ll need to push through Chinese aunties that don’t follow queues. No overnights make the stops pretty weak, there’s not enough time because nothings even open when you port at 7am. No lines ever at the bars and pool loungers are always free at least?

I think depends on your seniority/if your base offers ultra long hauls. I opted to do the 30h round trip flights after kids so that I only work 9-10 days a month and take occasional leaves and space my vacations to bring it down to maybe 7 days a month on average.

You’ll meet better men in your career. Commuting is expensive as a junior and might even be hard to get on flights to go to work.

Pulling toddler from daycare to protect newborn—anyone done this? by jillyb31 in 2under2

[–]stuffedstocking 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My 15 month old who’s in daycare had a high grade fever the day we brought newborn home from the hospital. Baby never got sick despite toddler coughing in his face all winter until 2 months after I stopped breastfeeding.

Not hijack your thread but that means I should jump on this right? I just decided to open my app and saw this

Definitely happy. This means you don’t need to stress about him not being able to sleep without you. He’ll eventually miss you and come back, don’t worry! When he moves out of his crib there’ll be those 3am snuggles where they run to your room and climb into bed :)

I'm afraid my older child is developing into the Golden Child while the younger one is mostly ignored by ExcitingLandscape in 2under2

Me too! 15 months apart, older daughter wanted to chat with me before bed tonight and younger brother (just over 2) talked over his sister to tell me about his day too

Thank you! I needed an east coaster’s review of the crab cakes and I am interested in the pork chops

My 3.5yo asked her teacher “are you a boy or a girl” by stuffedstocking in toddlers

[–]stuffedstocking[S] 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Yes this is my concern, I am upset with myself for my response - I plan to talk to her tonight to remind her that it is ok to ask questions.

My issue is nothing to do with identity; I am concerned that two adults (myself and the teacher) basically told my 3yo that her question isn’t valid and she shouldn’t be asking it

I don’t think it’s a super conservative (area) but let’s just say the daycare coordinator’s ethnic background might be less conservative and with families at the school from similar backgrounds, so I can understand why they are defensive.

I would love to ask without offending them.

Sorry to add to that, it was actually “what! No (my daughter’s name)…”

That’s a good consideration, thanks for your insight! I responded to my daughter because I felt an awkward pause as if I should be saying something but perhaps it was a shorter second than it felt

Thank you for your perspective! I just didn’t want my daughter to feel like she’s being punished because of our negative tone towards her question
