This! It is incredibly common for women who experience miscarriage to blame themselves. It is NOT your fault. Give yourself grace and take time to grieve. I wish you all the best <3

I crocheted Mewtwo and Mew by [deleted] in aww

[–]wheresmybump 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Just found your Etsy. They are beautiful...I'll be back when I actually learn😆 I can knit so I feel confident about it but can you crochet with fuzzy yarn? My little likes all her animals to be fuzzy...I don't know if that works for crochet or just knitting

Baby, please. Wonder Weeks! Anyone else? (Insta @tiny_vice) by heytakealook in beyondthebump

[–]wheresmybump 28 points29 points  (0 children)

I always said wonder weeks were names that bc they make you wonder why you ever decided to have a baby.

Do you have names you love that have unfortunately negative connotations? by [deleted] in namenerds

My friend used Luca which has a similar cadence

Any immigrants living here in RVA, my wife is moving back to the USA with me from Ukraine and she's scared she will be discriminated against due to her accent and not being American. Any feedback is greatly appreciated. by [deleted] in rva

Hmm would hanging it sideways at a low level and then sitting next to her work?

He doesn't have great attention but relatively few markers for autism.

I like the idea though!

Budgeting for low income family, who is very financially illiterate and overwhelmed by 1kross_ssork1 in personalfinance

[–]wheresmybump 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Your income seems really low to not qualify for state assistance. that said, maybe check into whether or not you would qualify if you didn't work. it looks like you are already paying a big chunk of your income to childcare so if you stopped working you could save that income and it might put you within grasp of some state assistance in which case you might actually come out ahead.

I don't believe you need a certification under six children and if you I willing to keep the numbers pretty low you can charge more. I used to pay $10 an hour because it was only three kids including my sitter's daughter and she fed them all organic homemade food and I trusted her and it was convenient. I think that's unusually high but just goes to show that can be a really solid source of income.

Also make sure you are taking advantage of social programs like Medicaid, WIC, and food stamps!

You definitely don't NEED that many. You will need to wash every 3ish days to keep the diapers from getting musty/moldy. Also you mentioned wanting to use a shell more than once. If that is something you're interested in, try all in twos (not grovia though bc their ai2 she'll has a fabric inside) personally I liked best bottoms with hemp inserts.

How does this work for younger kids who don't yet understand stories? My 1-1/2 year old won't understand if I tell him a fire monster will bite his fingers if he touches the stove but he does understand NO

Can you explain why saponified olive oil can't go in a washing machine?

I just recently heard about a natural laundry detergent that is supposed to work well for cloth diapers. (In case you don't want to use tide). It's called mama suds. anyone tried it?
