Smelly Vinted order

Just a little rant and interested to hear what others have to say. I’m sure we’ve all dabbled on Vinted to earn an extra pound or two while on maternity leave😅 I try and buy all my little girls clothes send hand where possible so I know what I’m getting myself into, but oh my gosh, some of the things I’ve received lately have absolutely STANK!!

I take so much time making sure the items I sell are clean and fresh before posting and can’t understand why others can’t do the same.

Would you leave negative feedback for something that smells like death warmed up?

Yes. I buy 95% of my little girl’s stuff on Vinted and I’ve had maybe 3 or 4 orders where stuff has been a lot more stained or damaged, but unless it’s awful I tend to give the benefit of the doubt because busy mums trying to make a few £ during nap time…but you can only give so much grace, some people are just grim 😅

Depends on the smell… as above some people just smell different if you know what I mean. However I can absolutely understand when it’s a smell of smoke/sweat/musty - I hate it and sometimes this can’t be washed out - if it was this bad I’d probably say something.

Sometimes putting on a cold wash with white vinegar, and then drying out in the sun can get rid of most smells - worth a try when often it isn’t worth paying the postage to return it!

Whether I’d leave negative feedback is on how the seller reacts when you let them know there is a problem, if they’re defensive and rude then I would but if it was just a honest mistake or something then I’d give grace.
I buy and sell on vinted a lot so I know how hit and miss it can be!

Wdy think of this for a toddler to learn word construction?

I'm open to anything else to start teaching him to read and write. He's 3!

Do men really enjoy fellatio?

Been together more than 10 years, but it's been a while since he even seemed remotely interested in me getting on my knees, or vice versa so to speak. I think it was once last year. Must be something I am doing wrong 🤔. Generally everything else in that department is great and we have two young kids with no extra support, so it's quite surprising we can't keep our hands off each other but may need to try new things. It's basically 2 positions each time with some foreplay.

Vanilla extract

Has anyone used alcohol free vanilla in their babies formal to help them drink?
I’m 100% sure my baby refuses her bottles as she doesn’t like the taste of it!

Just anxious to try it, don’t want her to get used to it and then refuse bottles again after two weeks of using (correct me if I’m wrong but I’ve read you use it for 2 weeks max)

TIA 🙂

Car seat crying

My 6 month old PANICS the second I put him in a car seat and screams, cries, chokes and recently even projectile vomited on a 14 minute drive. It’s gotten to the point I don’t even bring him out unless it’s to a doctors appointment. I’m a stay at home mom with no family in my state and it has been very isolating. We’ve tried 3 different car seats with no improvement. Has anyone had a baby who hated the car seat? Any advice? This started at 3 months. I will add it does seem worse when he’s tired. He does cry on every trip though. He only contact naps and co sleeps so he reaches for me and will not sleep in the car seat.

Sex post C section

Hi ladies I’m 4 weeks 5 days postpartum and I had a C section. I’m not bleeding properly anymore just some brownish discharge stuff that starts on and off. I’d like to do the deed with my partner; is it okay to do so or shall I wait the full 6 weeks. I feel up for it but also worried because the advice is 6-8 weeks.

Naps

How is everyone doing for naps?

Little one is 9 months old and will have 2 half hour naps and one solid 1 hour - 2 hour nap a day

Then settles for night around 9pm. Wakes for a feed around 3:30 then sleeps until 6-7
