    Daughter broke up with her boyfriend of 4 years & it’s like I’m going through a breakup.

    @sylvie I will say this as a person who has been in your daughter's shoes. When she's ready drop little affirmations. She is too valuable. Her time is valuable. Her life is valuable. She should be choosy about who she places into her life. While life is LONG youth is very finite. Best...

    I'm ready to throw Gen Z into a fire

    @labbish I know its not the same, but we are landlords to a small condo in a college town. When we were showing the property, if we saw on the app the person was younger than 33 ish, we expected to be ghosted. They'll swear they are coming an hour before and POOF. We are not a corporation, we...

    gestational diabetes while low carb--Is the test wrong if I don't carb-load for days before?

    @cookgokey_angel That should be how it works, but it is not....with unmedicated fasting numbers between 75 and 85 occasional 90, I was still treated like an ordinary GD case at 40 weeks. Yeah. False positives suck Eta... And then my induction was "taking too long" and the process of speeding...

    gestational diabetes while low carb--Is the test wrong if I don't carb-load for days before?

    @cookgokey_angel This isn't fear mongering. This is lived experience. I got thumbs up and high fives through all my prenatal visits. Suddenly, at 40 weeks, nothing mattered. Baby was a gd baby, scheduling induction

    @wolflink7544 Is she napping during the day? I just ask bc mine naps at daycare and not weekends. I think there is a heavy correlation with napping and night time shenanigans

    gestational diabetes while low carb--Is the test wrong if I don't carb-load for days before?

    @plope132 Really talk to your provider. You do not want a false positive. Come 40+ weeks, suddenly you get very very pushed into doing standard GD stuff even when it's not appropriate. They must have flow charts/best practice guidelines that really really don't account for q potential false...

    @wolflink7544 My daughter started doing this around the same time.. and I am still working at it. She is almost 3.5 I realize... she just doesn't want me to go. It's not about a book, toy or snack or whatever. It's about me The one thing that really seems to help... is I give her a long long...

    Egg allergy that gets worse before it gets better?

    @xvcxcewer I've had weird intermittent reactions to eggs my whole life. I cannot tolerate a hard cooked egg white. Whatever happens to the protein there, my body hates Quiche? Fine. Usually if it's baked or soft cooked I don't have problems If I'm stressed or sick otherwise, I stay away...

    Egg allergy that gets worse before it gets better?

    @maria2012 I was able to over a long time work up to a soft scramble or Quiche. Cannot do a hard scramble or fried.

    Raise your hand if you’ve ever been personally victimized by your toddler 🙋‍♀️

    @martinfuchs I will say this.... The calmer you are... the calmer they are. I also have a 1 and 3 year old. It's rough. So so many factors at play here. But I'll say this... resetting helps us a lot. Shake it off and offer chances at praise for doing well. Luckily my daughter responds a...

    gestational diabetes while low carb--Is the test wrong if I don't carb-load for days before?

    @bellahouz But having a wrongly flagged diagnosis can be bad. I was in that boat, even though my morning fasting were consistently around 78, I peaked post meal at 100 to 120... as soon as labor approached, it was as though it wasn't. And I was treated like any other GD mom. "I don't want...

    Tantrums all day, every day

    @rnsawant999 Mine dropped naps at this age. It's worth a shot. The only other advice I have... is make tantrums futile. They don't run a show. Tantrums over bedtime? Been there. We will sit together in darkness until done. Only a request for a hug will be obliged. Meals? Eh... I'm huge...
