    Cleaning toys

    @fab01 This might be too much considering you’re recovering from surgery, but I’m considering doing a bath soak w some toys since we’ve gone through some nasty boogers in the past few days as well. I plan to let the kids play in the bubble bath, dump duplo legos/plastic food/animal figures...

    Guidance for limits in roaming privileges for a ten year old? Does my break-down of limits align with development?

    @notloveisnotjesus Don’t worry about the haters :) it was a reasonable post and you don’t have to justify it. I don’t know if you’ve found r/moderatelygranolamoms yet but you’d find like-minded moms over there if you want any other thoughts/ideas!

    So glad we did cloth diapers - r/all had a room full of disposable diapers

    Did r/ScienceBasedParenting just shut down?

    @angelod I bet she was the one who permabanned me from breastfeeding support for a stupid reason (imo). As a mother who has breastfed 3 children beyond age 2 and loves supporting women in their breastfeeding journeys. Guess because I disagreed in one post my perspective was no longer valid 🙃
