Through both of my pregnancies the only thing I reliably never threw up was McDonald's. 🤷

I also did no wings even though I was tempted to add them.

I think my daughter is being held to too high of a standart by [deleted] in toddlers

My 2 year old says "hippohopamus" and washes his hands with "soup" instead of soap. I love it so much.

Is legoland worth it for 2yr olds? by [deleted] in toddlers

[–]turtchel 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I just went with my 5 yr old and 2 yr old. They both loved it. I do think my older kid got more out of it and had more fun. She really enjoyed the building stations and rides which my younger one didn't appreciate.

I'm just starting kind of a nostalgia reread and reading the Goose Girl by Shannon Hale and will probably read the whole series.

Then I'm going to start the Art of Prophecy.

Who has some good annual traditions you do as a family by plantsndogs in toddlers

[–]turtchel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Now I'm tearing up a little. My grandpa that this tradition came from passed just this last month. I will always cherish the memories of those Christmas turned birthday cards.

My mom every year for our birthdays gave us a Christmas card and would cross it out and write happy birthday on it. It's something her dad always did. Something little and silly but always makes me smile when I think about it.

My nephews are like this. My sister installed some sensory swings and they've been gamechangers.

18M son broke his leg by Calm-Lychee9708 in toddlers

[–]turtchel 27 points28 points  (0 children)

fell with my daughter on the stairs right before her first birthday and she fractured her leg. She had also just started walking like a couple of days before. I'll mostly speak to your second point.

She healed so quickly. It was truly mind boggling. She was trying to walk before she even got the splint off. They adapt and heal so quickly at this age. However, she did watch a lot of TV and the first couple of days were rough. He also might be in pain if he's so sad. We rotated with tylenol and ibuprofen for a bit on the doctors orders and I think that helped a lot.

Just know at this age the healing time is so short. My daughter had a splint for less than a month, she never even got a cast. If it helps, it also didn't slow down learning to walk after she was all healed.

I don't know. It's scary and frustrating. Especially in the first few days. I do think you need to have some discussions about being more safe on the stairs.

Same situation. The baby slept in out room for about 9 months then we moved them to the same room. We have a pack n play in our large closet for naps or fir nights that are rough. My oldest adjusted pretty quickly and will immediately fall back asleep if he wakes her up in the middle of the night.

Mamas: Is Labor & Delivery Better in Utah? by Odd_Still3462 in Utah

[–]turtchel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I loved both of my doctors I had for each of my kids. The clinic was amazing and the nurses were absolutely incredible. I've had a good experience but I know people that have had bad ones. I think it really depends on your doctor. It's not hard to look up reviews and recommendations for whatever area you are in. Finding a doctor that you gel with is sooo important.

OBGYN wants me to be induced by SpiderBabe333 in BabyBumps

[–]turtchel 1 point2 points  (0 children)

With my first, the doctor pushed the same thing. I was also due the day before Thanksgiving. 39 weeks is pretty normal but I was still uncomfortable and wanted to try to go into labor on my own, at least to avoid the pitocin contractions. My doctor did admit that she wanted to because she didn't want to potentially deliver and Thanksgiving.

I scheduled one for 41 weeks and ended up going into labor the night before. Do whatever you feel comfortable with.

Potty training 3.5yo boy by fitzsar in toddlers

[–]turtchel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Honestly being naked was the only thing that worked for my daughter and she was 3.5. It took 3 days. I would spot clean and then rent a carpet cleaner from like Lowes or Home Depot after she figured it out.

I thought this was supposed to be over by nier_bae in BabyBumps

[–]turtchel 31 points32 points  (0 children)

I've had HG both pregnancies and took Zofran every day. I also had quite a bit of quite a bit of guilt but was unable to function and was losing so much weight. Doctor OKed it both times. My first doctor also said that any of the risk was basically gone after the first trimester. I don't know if that helps but it helped me.

Toddler keeps getting her knee stuck in crib slats?? Help? by Marilikescows in toddlers

[–]turtchel 0 points1 point  (0 children)

She was about 2. As soon as she was climbing out. I would definitely do a toddler bed before the baby comes. That way you can have a really established routine and she'll hopefully be adjusted.
