@summer63 I am not a down time person. I got laid off 2 weeks before I found out I was pregnant. I worked p/t, and planned on finding a full time, but it didn't pan out. So I stayed home. I'm a busy bee, so I'm always cleaning, creating something, reading, walking, tending to pets. So I am still...

@marybelshe My brother is 7 years younger than me. So partially it was the double standard, but also I remember him screaming and crying and how hard it was for me at 7 to all of a sudden get no attention. I was expected to grow up and do it on my own. I always said I would have 2 close...

@arseniusthesilent My OB had a similar reaction, then at my next annual told me I should be pregnant by now. I fired him. 🤮

@pr0cessa It's very odd, but also scary. If he dies, all your money is inaccessible for you and your daughter. You need access! He can keep a separate savings as should you, but you don't have income, you need to be able to pay for things.

@samalematina I would definitely bring it up to her pediatrician. My daughter is doing much better now, she has her moments especially when tired but she's in kinder now thriving.

@samalematina She would be very upset all the time when in public especially with bright fluorescent lighting. And not just crying, full kick, scream until she made her self throw up! She was scared of the smallest sounds like a phone vibrating or a bell dinging. She just always acted like she...

@pablo628 Let be real. It's all because of capitalism. Healthcare shouldn't be for profit. Period. Childbirth, cancer treatments, heart attacks. We shouldn't be padding a CEOs pockets because of our health! Of course one way to "stick it to the system" is home birth, but there are some legit...

@vitality Mine was having a toddler with sensory meltdowns constantly starting at 2.5. after over 2 years of therapy twice a week and and help from school we finally have a little peace. I was so stressed for that entire time, never again.

@afolabi1024 We started at 4 due to a late birthday. In fact she tuned 5 two weeks into the year. Our district cut off is July 31. It's been great, and I don't think she would have done well at 3/young 4. That being said all kids mature differently, and we got approved for lowered tuition for...

@jenny777 Daughter was 3 years old and we set up the appointment. I had tried IUD and it gave my large ovarian cysts, so we had been using condoms. Now we have a beautiful smart and fun 7 year old! Life is good!

@elinternational Your situation is almost exactly like mine! My daughters bday is the end of August and here the cutoff for kinder is July 31. So we started preschool right before she turned 5. We didn't do preschool at 4 because she was having huge sensory meltdowns so we opted for multiple...

@lizzieb90 It's your choice! My daughter really blossomed in preschool and she wouldn't have been able to handle all day kindergarten without it. But it was only 2.5 hours a day. Not enough time to work. I ran errands and walked the dog. Some preschools are low cost and the social aspect is...

@halo235689 I try to do something everyday even if it's 20 mins. Walk the dog, hike in the woods. I also try to do 3 strength sessions a week and yoga. I used to go to the gym, use daycare or wait until partner is home but we bought gym equipment for the house because it was too difficult to...

@girl4god86 My placenta was giving out. I was terrified of a still birth. I didn't want to risk loss of a baby. It would crush me. A close couple to us had a still birth at 36 weeks when their first was 2. It was so terrible. They went on to have another, but man. That takes guts.

@naka90hara I definitely think you have to do what works for you and your family. My local public schools, feel pretty safe. They all have locked doors except the front which only opens to a hallway with more locked doors. All people need to be buzzed in. That being said all places still pose a...
