    Forced to use disposables for a few weeks--WHY DOES ANYONE DO THIS?!

    @ebioniterevival The old overnight ones definitely don’t smell great, but nothing our wash routine cannot take care of! My son was changed so frequently when he was little (max, max every two hours, more like every hour) so we had enough diapers for 3 days. Now that he is older, we change him...

    Forced to use disposables for a few weeks--WHY DOES ANYONE DO THIS?!

    @ebioniterevival Totally get it! We only wash every six days now 😂. So if we are leaving for 3-4, we just do laundry when we come back. For a week though, we always to wash our clothes anyway, so I’d rather do cloth dipaers. I did bring our detergent when we went to the vacation home last time.

    Forced to use disposables for a few weeks--WHY DOES ANYONE DO THIS?!

    @ebioniterevival I cannot be bothered to buy disposables, so so far we’ve been to hotels, camping, flew and vacation homes with cloth diapers! There are downsides (they take up space and might have to do laundry on vacation), but so far it’s been totally. Every time I think: we’ll do...

    @joerob40 See 7.a: It really IS that bad. And many wfh contract will specify that you cannot mind children while working (mine did). My MIL's contract specified that there could not be little children or loud animals, especially dogs to be allowed to work from home. The only way it can maybe...

    @erin81 That’s your opinion, that is not mine.

    @erin81 But I disagree with the whole: my kids have to come first IN everything. That’s not true. I come first in my life. I make sure I am healthy (mentally and physically) and happy, because when I am happy and healthy it’s easier to take care of my kids and love them.

    @nathan98 I don’t mind too much. I am one of those whose mental load childrearing is really well split with my husband and take turns travelling for work/doing stuff on our own/doing family activities. It’s usually really good. I also think saying you cannot travel/have to be there all the...

    Double stroller recommendation for paved roads/theme parks?

    @martincy Wagons are not always accepted in Theme Parks; DisneyWorld/Disneyland has very specific maximum requirements. For Double strollers in the park, CityConnect Jogger are the most frequent. Joovy Qool is another one. I personally have a Qool and I really like it. The Joovy Qool has the...

    @erin81 No? If both parents agree that one parent will travel when the kids are little, then it's fine.

    Best pack n play?

    @katrina2017 Exactly what I was going to say. After three times assembling/dissambling, you are good to go. I checked the other fancier ones and the 4Moms and I could not bring myself to pay that much for a pack n play.

    Starting my stash for our babygirl coming in 2 months

    @keb1990 So I checked Fluff Love University ( http://www.fluffloveuniversity.com/how-to-wash-cloth-diapers/detergent-index/ ) and they don't recommend Miocare. Frosch might work? They have limited details on their website in English.

    Starting my stash for our babygirl coming in 2 months

    @keb1990 Is Eco baby detergent the name of the detergent? Not all detergents work well for dirty diapers and baby detergents tend to be pretty mild. Some other Eco detergents have oils or others that can coat diapers. There are others detergents that are recommended that are plant-based or...

    Talk me in or out of an additional baby carrier

    @veronicaplr If you can go to Target or BuyBuyBaby, both stores have the LilleBaby, Ergo and Babybjorn on display. You can usually test them (or at least show them to your mom), so she’ll get a better idea. It took me a few times to get comfortable with the LilleBaby, but now I really like it.

    Talk me in or out of an additional baby carrier

    @veronicaplr How old will baby be when your mom starts taking care of him/her? I think the BabyBjorn, once adjusted to the wearer, is the easiest to put on and off. Backclips like LilleBebe and Ergo are not that hard but definitely requires lots of practice. I think that your mom should have...

    WWYD, kindergarten for July baby?

    @steffanie2020 They made me skip grades (eventually) and that was much more damaging to my social life. Also, sadly, not everyone has the opportunity to take college classes in high school. It was not a possibility where I lived.

    @duke845 Add 7)A Forget about it, you cannot take care of children full time while working from home full time . Doing it on days they are sick is already a lot. Most of us that had to do it during covid do not miss it AT ALL. B) can my in-laws/grandparents/the dog take care of my babies? They...
