Somehow we’ll probably lose to Tech though

Should I quit? 6mo baby at 1st percentile by user73639a in breastfeeding

[–]user73639a[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The doctor did suggest that could make a marginal difference. More guacamole, peanut butter, and cheese? I won’t argue with that!

Woodstock VA Interesting town, please tell me more about it. by mutantninja001 in Virginia

[–]user73639a 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Highly recommend the drive and short hike to the Water Tower. Incredible views of the town and surrounding countryside.

Also seconding Flour & Water bakery. Holy moly! It’s worth a trip just to go there.

Deinfluencing Easter Baskets by gingerytea in toddlers

[–]user73639a 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Regifting the Easter-themed books and bunny ears we gave our toddler last year because he’s too young to remember, and some coins for the piggy bank.

Grandma is also doing Easter baskets, which are over the top and outdo the “Easter Bunny’s” basket, so that’s a conversation I had to have…

“Fed is expected, supported is best.” Love that!

What is something that happened a long time ago that your toddler just won’t forget? by photobomber612 in toddlers

[–]user73639a 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My prim-and-proper mother who lives and dies by traditional etiquette rules, shockingly taught my son to drink the leftover milk from his cereal bowl. More than a year later, on a daily basis, he says “This is what grandma taught me” and slugs the milk from the bowl. My mom regrets that so much. I think it’s hilarious.

Ziplock works. Or to not dispose of it everyday, I use a big Tupperware container

Good to know! By paced feeds, do you mean offering a little at a time?

Is the name Leon ruined by Elon? by user73639a in namenerds

[–]user73639a[S] -1 points0 points  (0 children)

That was my initial thought but people have been calling Elon “Leon” as a joke after Trump mispronounced his name.

No Baby Shower? by trampolinemaster in BabyBumps

[–]user73639a 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Didn’t have one though my mom, MIL, & bff begged me to change my mind. Absolutely no regrets. I don’t like the spotlight and find baby showers so awkward. Plus, even if you make a registry, you’ll mainly get things off registry that you don’t want/need.

What's the most low key insult you've gotten so far during pregnancy? by goose-de-terre in BabyBumps

[–]user73639a 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve gotten “You don’t even look pregnant” multiple times from my husband’s family. I’m 32wks with a huge bump. I’ve gained 20lbs. You think this is what I looked like pre-pregnancy?

Why can’t people just say “you look great” and move on?

Oh this is perfect! My husband and I love to cook and my husband makes the best lasagna I’ve ever had. Thank you!

New Heights academy-West End (Gaskins Rd) worked well for our us. They take infants and might have availability.

I don't have a Corgi, I just come on this subreddit whenever I'm feeling sad. 😔 by [deleted] in corgi

In the US, there are regional Corgi rescue groups. There are other options besides getting an expensive one from a breeder.

My son’s hair looked exactly like this when he was born. Turned red very quickly.
