@uncle_ayman Kids don't know unless someone teaches them. And yep, super effective if a bunch of people who usually are just super nice to you tell you something is not okay. That happened a couple times to me when I was a kid for various things and I never did any of them again.

@chakra12 So the good news is that she is 7 not 17, so she is just repeating it from somewhere. I would be very concerned about WHERE she picked up the word. (Not because I don't expect my kid to pick up profanity from various places, but because I would be concerned about what sentiments that...

@ckatiejo I totally get why you are annoyed. Pumping sucks. It especially sucks if it's not part of your usual routine. This is my second baby, but with my first that would have meant hauling my pump home from work and setting it up who knows where. It means washing pump parts. It means a...

@kazurk You could try documenting what she is doing while she is playing independently. There are some reasons to do that (not to excess) like looking for patterns or communicating with the parents, but also it may look like you are doing something. Otherwise, I'd just be present and...

@gne5 I don't really have good advice, but if you have soft water, I'd skip the washing soda. I use it for my hard water, as it is a water softener.

@rishley Get an assortment of diapers to try out and then look for more of your favorite. At first, I preferred velcro (easier to adjust right and quicker to do) but my husband preferred snaps. In larger sizes (like Duo Wrap 2) it is not contest - you need snaps, because baby can pull off the...
