Silicone Baby Feeding Set

I want to buy my little one some silicone plates and bowls, does anyone have any recommendations for good ones with suction underneath? 😊

I wouldn’t recommend them as once you wash them in soapy water I found that they end up tasting like soap x

I have some plates and straw cup from moonkie and they've been great.

Pandaear have silicone outside but steel inside so they dont taste of nasty soap. The silicone stuff made the food on it literally taste like washing up liquid it was awful

I also have silicone and have never had the issue of them smelling or tasting funny (I don't run them through the dishwasher, dunno if that makes a difference. In a year I have only replaced them once after the first set got a little discoloured. My only complaint is they can be annoying to dry. The silicon drags against tea towels so it's hard to actually wipe them down, you kind of have to pat them. I do this with the plates but hang the bibs and placemat to air dry.

Not silicone but we use the munchkin ones with suction underneath which are good

9months old - am I unreasonable?

It might sound silly but I'm a bit worry about my little girl development as my mat leave is over and I'm back to work (hybrid-half a week wfh). My husband will be in charge until sep that we'll send her to nursery. He's is a good and caring dad but he can be a bit ocd for a few things like safety or cleaning...

My concern is that because of his fears he doesn’t let our girl have enough floor time or practice pulling herself up. as he worries she might hurt herself. She’s at a stage where she’s learning to pull herself up and loves to bend and reach for things which I believe shows she’s developing very well but my husband gives her very limited time to practice because he thinks nothing is safe.
For example, we have a shelf in her nursery room that’s fastened to the wall and has a guard on the edges. I let her stand there, grab toys, and put them up and down. My husband forbids this. My daughter also likes to touch our wall mirror and gets excited putting her hands and lips on it but he doesn’t allow her. I’ve tried communicating but there’s no way through.

Am I being unreasonable? Any advice?

Any mom's who grow their own food?

Hello! This is my third year gardening. This year I plan to Preserve what I grow and save seeds as well! I live in Zone 9. But would love to have mom friends who garden/homestead. 💗 Here’s my corn i sowed the beginning of this month. With the warmer weather my seeds are popping up.

Best way to deter squirrels?? I bought some reflective spinners. We found the little digger in my soil is a squirrel.

Toddlers Activities

I didn’t realize teaching your child to write their name would require THIS much patience
So I made these little fridge magnets for my two year old daughter… we’re taking it one step at a time.
Her favorite part is when I clap and hype her up after…..
But if I look away for even a second… she’s writing on her hands or something else, had to start using washable markers real quick lol

How’s the learning process going for everyone else?

Losing the will to live..

I’ve had one of those day.. I’m a solo mom of 2 boys.. my 3 year old has been chaos all day.. every half an hour sounds like..,
‘no, you’re making my bed wrong.. no, I don’t like those potatoes, I want different ones.. no, I want more, I want your potatoes too.. no, you’re a naughty mummy.. no, I want to go somewhere fun.. no, you cut my food wrong’

I literally can’t cope and I’m sickened by my sons behavior so much that I can’t even eat the little dinner that I have seeing as he cried about his own dinner and took half of mine. I’m so overstimulated, overwhelmed and tired of everyday being a mental race of all the things I have to do..

It’s my birthday in 2 days and the only thing I seemingly can do is something to entertain my son but he’s so naughty I don’t even want to take him out😞

Gifted toddler - how to proceed?

Our son is 2.5 and everyone has been telling me that he's extremely gifted and that school will be a challenge because he'll be so bored. He can currently:
-Read independently, and knows how to sound out any unfamiliar words
-Count to 50 without help, 100 with help
-identify all basic colors and some niche ones like cyan, magenta
-write his name
-speak in full, descriptive sentences (he is a CHATTERBOX and a total social butterfly, no stranger danger here 😩)
-use the potty independently

However, he's still a toddler. He tantrums, he makes toddler decisions lol, he struggles with big feelings etc.

He is with me (or my mom) 24/7. He's never been to daycare. My question is, how essential is a formal school environment before 5? Should I continue to "homeschool" until kindergarten? Should I seek a Montessori or similar program to challenge him? Any guidance is helpful! He is currently the only child but I am trying for another.

Regret

Anyone else regret having a baby with your bd. I’m realizing that I have never felt free in our relationship before and he doesn’t even do anything crazy. He just triggers me into feeling small. Never lets me talk, and cuts me off to prove what I’m saying is wrong before I could even finish what I’m saying. When I ask questions he ignores me, just straight up ignores me. BUT when I’m taking a second to respond he gets loud with me. He judges everything I do that makes me happy. When I want to go do something because we have 1 car he thinks of every reason we shouldn’t. Lame reasons too! like it’s too far when it’s 30 away and it’s too late when it’s at 4pm… bffr. He constantly reminds me that I don’t know what I’m doing when it comes to our baby BUT I do research, talk to people and think about what I do plenty times when it comes to our baby before I do it. Im not saying I’m perfect but he says things like our baby shouldn’t be doing this and should be doing this without any knowledge of why I’m doing it or what he’s talking about. I’m frustrated and feeling like I’m just overthinking and being problematic because these things are small and I have good things in our relationship too. Ughhhhh
