@pentie2003 My kid was a really big baby at 9 lb 12 oz. He's still a pretty big kid at 1y 6m and all his life I got comments on his weight, mostly from my mother and my new pediatrician. He's a big kid with normal toddler chunk. Have they met my husband? Okay, the pediatrician gets a pass on...

@jellofishxo I'm team "when they're ready." I'm a summer kid myself, almost always the youngest of my classes growing up. I was ready for preschool at the earliest accepted age, though I needed a bit of a social push. Which is exactly what preschool was for! My son is about to be 3 and I have...

@robert777 That advice is so bogus. Do what you gotta do to stay sane!

@christiangirl94 I went into labor sleep deprived and was a total mess that first month, month and a half or so. The soiled diapers questions my pediatrician asked me were usually answered with, " uh, I think [x] but honestly, I don't know. I'm just trying to stay awake." I honestly tried using...

@katrina2017 I agree- to a point. Something that drives me away from Facebook groups and discussion boards like BabyCenter are the almost daily repeated questions. BUT I don't think banning duplicate posts all together is needed, either. Perhaps anything repeated for that day or even that...

@robaya We went and took a trip this weekend and screwed up the routines ourselves first 😂 take that, Daylights Savings Time!

@shiftybroccoli To add to the FAQ and headers suggestions, I think a post explaining the sleep training methods (or links to articles about them) may be a good idea. Often, I see suggestions on methods but sometimes lingo is used that may not make sense to others. For example, CIO is "cry it...

@richking58 Geez, get some class! /s

@kievonn My 3yo is getting 2 new toy cars (Costco has great die cast ones and they can take a beating) and new bed sheets. We are asking for gift cards mostly from others because we have sooo many toys already (I am the problem lol) or, if a gift is a must, to go check out Loverly or KiwiCo...

@neverbeenalone If my toddler wasn't about to tear his crib apart from all the crazy shaking, I'd totally have him in it still. He'd go to sleep much quicker than he does now!

@downdraft Thanks for saying what I could not find the gentle words for. I have been astonished by how many photos have popped up lately and also over on the BLW sub. Save the photos for your personal social media that has privacy settings updated and be weary of what you use for profile and...

@bioethicsdoc I got one last year with a remote control, thinking I was being so clever to have some form of control over my toddler going nuts in the yard or down the road. He refused to drive it, fully expecting me to do all the work. He picked up some of the driving over the summer, but...
