Chomps beef sticks are good but expensive so I get the grass fed beef sticks at Costco. Pork rinds are higher protein low calorie and Trade Joeās has some really good ones. And Iāve only seen these at Trader Joeās but they have a soy rice cracker medley that is my favorite snack.

Non buttered Popcorn is a great one

Goldfish crackers! Specifically the ones that say "baby" because theyre smaller size so you can eat more lol the serving size is like 89 pieces for 140 calories š¤

Rice cake and cottage cheese, cucumber sticks and hummus or carrot sticks, Korean cucumber salad, I love hot pickles as well to snack on, pickled cabbage/kimchi, breadsticks and low fat cream cheese, mini chicken sausages

Peppers, cream cheese & everything but the bagel seasoning
Chocolate rice cakes w cream cheese (SO GOOD)
Pork rinds w sour cream & taco seasoning
Avo w soy sauce
Cottage cheese bowls (look up different recipes on Pinterest)
I lost 100 lbs before I got pregnant. If youāre wanting to lose weight, up your protein intake to 100 grams per day, drink half your body weight in water per day, CHEW your food at least 25 times before swallowing, this is CRUCIAL. just doing that, youāll lose weight. My MIL has only been doing that since separating with my FIL, sheās lost 40 pounds in 8 months from just doing that. You eat less bc you stop eating when youāre actually full.

Can chicken, mayo, and a can of veggies salad. Make a big bowl last for 2 days eat by it self or with crackers or bread
Was I rude ? Or was the nursery staff member rude?
My 3-year-old came home from nursery on Friday with a red bump behind her ear. When I asked what happened, she told me that another boy hit her with a toy car and also hit her on her back.
I messaged the nursery and said:
āAlso just wanted to say that when my daughter came home from nursery on Friday, I noticed she had a bump behind her ear and was red. I asked her what happened, and she said another boy hit her with a toy car and also hit her on her back.
I appreciate that children can have accidents in nursery and itās impossible to eliminate everything, but I was concerned as it was on her head.
I would also appreciate if you could supervise their interactions a little more closely, particularly given the previous concerns we discussed about my daughter feeling uncomfortable around the same child and the child being rough with her before the summer break.
I know children will have disagreements and accidents, but would like to make sure my daughter feels safe and that any incidents are picked up and communicated to me.ā
The teacher replied:
āOK mum I was with her for most of the day on Friday and not once did her and the other child be near each other.ā
How would you interpret the nurseryās response? Do you think the teacher is simply saying that she personally didnāt witness them together, or does it come across as dismissing what my daughter told me? And was my original message reasonable, or did I come across as accusing the nursery/child?

If youāre a stay at home mom or wife whose kids are in school all day what do you expect husband/partner to
help with if anything? My husband works a lot with his job so I donāt want to be ungrateful but I am genuinely curious to see how spouses break up responsibilities in the household. All my kids are currently in school. I do have a job at night but itās part time and very easy so itās not burning me out and I do get to sleep as itās home health but during the day I mostly have time to myself.

So Iāve come downstairs from settling our LO to sleep and start talking about putting in an extra nap during the day and moving bedtime later as LO has been foul the last 3 nightsā¦ā¦ please tell me why my other half starts talking about his grass and I let him know Iām not interested and I donāt care so he asks why and I said I have more pressing stuff going on that takes priority over admiring the grass and the audacity of this man he comes out with āitās not that hardā and I say what and he says ābeing a motherāā¦ā¦ā¦. I nearly hit the roof, not once in 15 weeks has this man settled our LO at night time and heās done 2 just 2 midnight feeds and woke me during themā¦ā¦ I would love for this man to try ābeing the motherā and then tell me itās not hardā¦ā¦ I genuinely feel like a single parent with a partner š®āšØ

People in my life act as though as I'm not doing enough as a mother and wife or that I'm putting too much on my husband. I'm a SAHM and my husband works full time and we have two kids. He either does our grocery shopping alone, takes one of our kids, or we all go together as a family. If just one of our kids have a doctor appointment he will take them on his own and I'll stay home with the other kid. He does laundry, he picks up rooms, he vacuums, he wipes things down, he does dishes, he cooks, and I do these things as well. He plays with our kids, teaches them, does bath time, does bedtime routines, and so do I.
I'm frequently finding people feel bad for my husband when they hear about all that he does. Most of the time it's women telling me they feel bad for him and giving me unsolicited advice on what I can do to make life easier for him. Am I truly not doing enough in my role or is this an issue of gender roles and stereotypes? Or possibly even jealousy?

Okay so my daughter is 5 and autistic she rides the bus home from school and wears a built in harness you know okay so her normal bus was down and they put her on an alternate they forgot to tell him that she was in a strap and that Iād be there at the stop so when he came he let all the other kids off then pulled off with her still on the bus. I freaked out called the school and got 3 different answers as to what to do next then when I asked to speak with someone who knew more they tried to say it was because I wasnāt there on time once I corrected her TWICE she finally decides to call transportation. Well I call them myself and they also give me the run around itās āwell they might just bring her backā āweāll have to find herā ājust wait for us to call you backā ābe more visible at the bus stopā so I amped and cussed everyone out Iām like this is a FIVE YEAR OLD weāre talking about. So the man at transportation hangs up on me when I said that wasnāt acceptable and I called the police because no one could tell me anythingā¦.. once the police called them the bus immediately turned around and brought her back to the stop. I asked the driver what happened and he said āI didnāt know she was on here the other kids were too loudā so I emailed the school and said to just put her back in the car rider line. My mom said I jumped the gun pulling her from the bus. But I was literally terrified.
