FTM

I’m a FTM to a three month old. I live in Dallas and it’s fall time and of course there’s so much to do.

When do you think it’s okay to take her to the zoo, aquarium, arboretum, pumpkin patches and things?
She has had her DTaP and Hib vaccines at 2 months.

Whenever you feel comfortable. Wanted to go to the texas state fair so bad (I'm in Stephenville) but after that shooting I feel uncomfortable. We went to a pumpkin patch and plan on pictures with santa but since it's getting to be sick season we probably won't do much else until next year when it warms up

My daughter is 3 months, and we chose not to vaccinate but we take her everywhere, even around lots of people, it helps to build her immune system.

I agree, I’m just worried because it’s flu season and can be deadly to baby. I think as long as she’s not in direct contact with people it should be fine 🤷🏽‍♀️

My little buddy will be exactly 4 months old 🥰 Saturday. He gets his next shots next week. We absolutely take him out and about to restaurants and his first outing was at 6 weeks old to the mall. He will be getting a flu shot at his December visit ( which we do need to schedule)

We live less than 2 hours from San Francisco, baby girl has been to the city more times in the last 4 months then I could probably count lol some before she was even vaccinated. We have gone to the aquarium already once, planning a trip to the pumpkin patch this week and probably going to the Monterey one next week. I just disinfect/wash my hands frequently, also have disinfecting wipes and germ-x just in case. Most of the time those she’s in her stroller mostly covered with the hood

thank you!! Yeah she’s always either in the stroller or strapped to me, I just wanted to see everyone else’s experience and opinion. ♥️🙂

Is this normal

Let’s say you’re at a softplay with your 2 year old, and some friends & their toddlers.
You buy your 2 year old a kids meal - chicken nuggets, beans, and chips. They’re very happy with it and have almost eaten it all.
They’re sat at the table, fork in hand, consistently eating, and have one chicken nugget left.
Your adult friend comes over from behind you, picks up the last chicken nugget, and eats it.
There was no indication that your child wasn’t going to eat it, and they didn’t ask. They just took it with no warning and ate it right in front of you and your toddler.
How you reacting?

Are these men ok?

I get so sad seeing all the posts on here daily about women dealing with partners who are treating them horribly. I know it seems over represented because those of us with great partners don’t need to write posts asking for help, but I really hope most of us don’t have these kinds of men in our lives!

I tell my husband about these posts I see sometimes and he’s even shocked by some of the things these guys say/do.

Nobody’s perfect, and every relationship takes work. And becoming parents is a stress test unlike any other for sure, but seeing how many women get stuck in these relationships with men who aren’t interested in being better is so so sad😞

But is/was your partner helpful, loving, and supportive during your pregnancy/PP/etc? Was he a wonderful person but changed for the worst after becoming a parent? Has he put effort into becoming the partner you need him to be, even if he struggles?

Car issues

Idk if I’m in the wrong. I have a full time job. My husband takes care of the kids while I worked. Today was the day I was supposed to get us a car. But I couldn’t cause of the down payment. So now he’s texting me saying I’m wasting his day to be alone at Walmart so he can spend his tax return. I really want to say go ahead. Leave. Leave the kids and me alone. While you go out and spend money. While your at go ahead and buy urself your drugs and a bitch to go fuck.

Lucky I’m even thinking about him about the car situation if not I would’ve been buying me and the kids a car small enough for us!

Activities with baby

I’m so tired of not finding enough things to do with my 10 month old baby boy. What do you guys do to keep them engaged. I’m not giving him any screen time actually he’s not interested either in watching tv.
Any ideas and tips what to do with them I’m so tired 😣

Nursery lunches?

My daughter is nearly 10 months old and starting nursery next month. I want to send my daughter in with lunches so I know shes eating healthy meals but I'm honestly so lost as to what to put in her little bento lunch box that will keep till lunch time and doesnt need reheating. Ive been doing loads of baby led weaning at home, but I tend to make it fresh or pull stuff from the freezer I've previously made and defrost and reheat.
Could you show me some of the lunches you've been giving your baby? Or have you been been letting the nursery deal with the food?
