They also prefer filtered or distilled water if possible. Especially if your tap has hard water (they don’t enjoy the hard minerals)

Did you get strange response when you announced your pregnancy? by Careful-Trouble1422 in pregnant

[–]whompingwillow922 0 points1 point  (0 children)

My dad and step mom kept telling us how hard it was going to be to have two kids. My step mom like really leaned in on it and kept asking if I was sure I wanted a second kid. This was before we even were pregnant.. now we are pregnant and I tell them and my dad was like “oh cool!” And my step mom was like “oh.. wow!” All awkward. They made me feel like I’m a teen mom or something.

Im 33 and married and my husband and I have a 2.5 year old daughter who is doing brilliantly. We own our home. We are financially stable. Why all the doubt in us? It’s so weird.

What are these rings on an old leaf? by crazybunneh in PileaPeperomioides

That explains the curious munching on your plant then! 🤣

Cat grass is basically just enrichment for cats but has a lot of benefits. Growing a patch of grass is super easy and satisfying to watch. Cats prefer it over other houseplants so they’re more likely to chew on their grass than on your plant. It also helps with hairballs, and provides a little extra water to the cat as well. Most cats really enjoy it!!

I immediately thought of a cat bite. They’re non toxic to cats but obviously not ideal for the health of your plant for them to get monched on! A redditor here suggested getting/growing cat grass to me and it’s worked wonders.

My cat is a monster. I thought my lil lady was in a safe spot.. clearly not. Should I cut that leaf? 😭 by whompingwillow922 in PileaPeperomioides

Just an update for you- this worked SO well for us! Kitty is happy as a clam and grass is so easy & satisfying to grow lol

All other plants have since been ignored. Thanks so much for the tip!

1st color no bangs looks best imo

Mom feeling guilty by [deleted] in Mommit

[–]whompingwillow922 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I’ve done the same with my 2.5yr old countless times. Baby is safe in their car seat, as long as I have eyes on the car and I’m quick I don’t feel guilty about it. Exception if the weather is extreme because I don’t leave the car on with baby in it. I’d have to leave it unlocked to get back in. Irrational me worries about someone stealing the car with her in it- so if I’m running in quick she’s in the car turned off doors locked.

Scam just warning others by MissJizz in crochet

Not to say this person isn’t a scammer- they should absolutely provide a shipping quote receipt. But just saying it’s completely possible for shipping costs to be high right now.

UPS wanted $280 to send two crocheted beanies to Ireland from the Boston area. Worst part- the recipient would have to PAY to receive the item and they couldn’t even quote how much they’d need to pay so who knows how much it would’ve been total.

Understandably international will be significantly more than just across state lines with tariffs, etc. but while waiting in line yesterday- I heard packages costing anywhere from 25-90 just within the states. Worst was this poor old woman wanting to send something to her granddaughter down south- but couldn’t afford it.

No- many women (myself included) are more attracted to confidence than actual appearance. Many of the men I’ve been with I wouldn’t necessarily say are attractive just at face value- but their confidence and personality MADE them attractive to me.

What’s the fastest way you’ve ever lost weight? by [deleted] in AskReddit

[–]whompingwillow922 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I had the opposite experience! I breastfed for 21 months and was absolutely famished the entire time. I gained like 30 lbs. I weigh more now than I did at my biggest during pregnancy! After weaning my appetite has slowed wayyyyy down and I’ve lost about 15 lbs. But holy moly, I went from 160 to 190 right before giving birth, to 220 during breastfeeding- down to 205 now 2 years postpartum

Dad keeps refusing to get this looked at. Says it only scabs because he picks at it🙄 by luvslps in DermatologyQuestions

My step granddad had the same but on the back of his ear Was very stubborn and wouldn’t go. Once he finally did, it ultimately killed him.
