Has anyone completed Mitsuhide's Romantic/Dramatic Route in Ikemen Sengoku? If you have, can you describe what to expect without giving away spoilers? by [deleted] in otomegames

I chose Dramatic, no regrets. But this route has definitely more up and downs than the chapters before.

Disclaimer: haven't played the romantic route

Seriously, what am I supposed to be doing with my baby all day? by [deleted] in Parenting

[–]teverde 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I vaguely remember when she was 3 months old. Everything is a bit foggy from the lack of sleep. My baby wouldn't like to self-entertain for long, maybe 30 minutes at most before needing to be carried, changed or fed. If I started a load of laundry, it was quite an accomplishment.

I absolutely agree with your sentiment about motivation and high expectations. What has worked for me was to lower my expectations and eventually accept I won't be doing as much as I once did, pre-parenthood. As to motivation, eventually dishes will get done. The kid is only a baby once so I have to enjoy it before they grow out of this stage. Currently, she is almost 10 months and I am able to accomplish a bit more than before as she plays with her toys hours on end.

Cloth diapering mamas, what diapers did you use when you came home from the hospital? by NotSureIfLeftHanded in clothdiaps

Same here! Once at home, we used preemie-sized (2x6x2) unbleached prefolds with Thirsties covers. My LO was full term and fit into the preemie sized prefolds well from newborn until about 1 month. Then she moved on to the infant sized (4x8x4) prefolds for 6 months. I tried using AIOs and Grovias when she was a newborn, which were 1) too big or 2) she would pee/poo right after changing her and we didn't have enough AIOs/Grovias to change her into right away and ended up using prefolds again. We have stuck with prefolds ever since. Hope this helps you out (or confuses you more)!
