    Why do other people care so much about what I feed my baby?!

    @katrina2017 Honestly I feel like I always 100% KNOW my baby is full on formula. I don’t have to worry that I’m not producing, or I didn’t drink enough water, or (in my case) dairy sneakily slipped into my diet again which will cause my baby agony. I could have written that paragraph on...

    Why do other people care so much about what I feed my baby?!

    @lolasode This person is not your friend. This person does not value or support you. This person is not worth your time. I’m really sorry that happened to you. Boundaries are important.

    How much are you playing with your baby?

    @coachlittlez23 Get a Fisher Price Kick and Play Piano. In this case, the name brand means something and it is THE ONE you want. The songs actually bop and it grows with them. It is the only way our baby would engage in tummy time without wailing, reaching for the hanging toys was helpful for...

    House w Sex Offender Neighbor?

    @nmb Came here to say this. I was sexually abused for 5 years by a family member, so I’m particularly sensitive to this sort of thing. The sex offender might relocate within months of OP buying the new home, or they might be there years. Conversely if OP buys a different home, a sex offender can...

    @littledot I’m an only child of a single mother. She passed away in October after a sudden terminal diagnosis. Being an only gave my mom and I an incredibly strong relationship. I probably also benefitted from more self reliance and independence as an only. When she passed away and even now I am...

    To switch or not to switch - gassy baby

    @epistletimothy What worked for/was recommended to us: Give gas drops before feedings for most effectiveness. Mylicon is the brand we used. This breaks gas up into smaller bubbles and easier to pass. Turns out our baby has (had) cow milk protein allergy and this helped. Similac Alimentum is...

    "I was going to be a dad" - reflections on a miscarriage

    @ignissus You are not alone. I was once told “a miscarriage is often the first step to a successful pregnancy” and I honestly believe that, if that is what you and K want. For some helpful resources, when you are ready, r/miscarriage was extremely helpful for us. Later we went to r/TTCafterloss...

    I’ve had a fever every day for 8 days and I’m so pissed off.

    @mariasmith It hurts because it’s painfully true

    So g-d thirsty

    @markstrimaran Same girl same! I have found using Liquid IV helps a bunch, but beware the high sugar level (11g) if you’re sensitive to sugar winding you up in the evenings. I prefer the passion fruit flavor. It isn’t inexpensive ($24.99 for 16 packets) but it’s worth every penny to get some...
