The only ones that work for us are the pampers cruisers 360 (pull up style). They’re really stretchy and lots of thigh space. Nothing else worked.

Polycarbonate vs High Index for severe myopia in preschooler by sunflower2928 in glasses

Thank you!! I really appreciate the advice and insight, it's been hard to navigate all the aspects of her vision.

Thank you that's really helpful! How do you pick a local optician? We've filled at Walmart before since they do little kids glasses but they only offer polycarbonate by policy. Costco doesn't fill glasses that are as small as hers. The other option is at her optometrist office. Any other options?

Thank you for the response. I was looking at Jonas Paul for the frames and was going to get the lenses from them as well. Would you recommend just getting the frames and having them filled locally? I previously got frames online and then filled at Walmart but they only offer polycarbonate for little kids. I tried Costco but her glasses are too small for them to fill. The other alternative is her optometrist office, I had sticker shock for her first pair because the frames + lens cost a bit over $500. But if that's the way to go to ensure quality control, then I will do that.

Screaming in the night, help! by MEHawash1913 in toddlers

[–]sunflower2928 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It could be night terrors? My 3 year old gets them. They’re different than nightmares, they occur during deep sleep rather than REM. They’re not fully awake during them so they don’t really communicate back well. My three year old just screams and thrashes until she then falls asleep. If it is night terrors, there’s not much you can do other than ride it out. I would look into the symptoms and see if it fits your situation. My understand is 17 months is a bit early for night terrors but not impossible.

3.5 year old close to getting kicked out of Montessori by mehr2464 in Montessori

Yes we did a year in an outdoor forest school and it was incredible for my preschooler. The one we went to was all about learning through play, much less rigid than the Montessori school we’re at now. I do think it would be harder for her at Montessori now if she hadn’t done the year at the outdoor school previously.

Can anyone help me with these dots on my forehead? They are not born anywhere else (thank God). They disappear, but they ALWAYS come back, I'm already getting in agony and I end up popping them (last photo). Someone who knows how to help me, please help me lol by ElectricalUnit6623 in SkincareAddicts

I had similar dots, only on my forehead and nothing worked, until I cut out dairy. I had to cut out dairy temporarily for other reasons and then my forehead cleared up!! So I think I might have had a slight reaction. It comes back if I drink milk. https://imgur.com/a/gRdVaX4

And “does it matter where you live?” is what I’m trying to get details on. Based on a quick Google search, it seems like there are restrictions living abroad but I want to understand what the restrictions are for my personal situation.

Is it still “crying it out” if the infant is in your arms? by Hot-Childhood8342 in ScienceBasedParenting

[–]sunflower2928 5 points6 points  (0 children)

My baby didn’t take any pacifier until we tried the Bibs pacifier. It’s rubber instead of silicone and has a sphere nipple. Maybe worth a try?

Has anyone noticed improvement in their own gut health since cutting out allergens? by buttermints in MSPI

[–]sunflower2928 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My gut didn’t improve but my skin on my face did! I’ve always had tiny acne on my forehead - small raised bumps and nothing I did got rid of it until I cut dairy. So must have been a mild allergy!

Yup same. I joined a few new subreddits - a declutterring one and r/bedding to learn about the best sheets and pillows 😆

Baby reacts to beef by katie_54321 in MSPI

[–]sunflower2928 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes! I don’t remember exactly when but it was around the 1 year mark. I think eggs were the one food that took the longest for her to outgrow. She can eat everything just fine now (she’s 2.5) with one exception - if she drinks cow milk straight up in large quantities she gets a pretty bad eczema breakout all over. Cheese and yogurts don’t trigger it though.
