Maybe this is me being bitter because I have a preemie but I think these "leaps" are a bunch of BS.
"My baby is crappy... they are starting a new leap"
"My baby stopped sleeping through the night. Damn you leap"
"My baby won't stop eating but you know they are right in the middle of a leap"
No. Your baby is doing these things because they are a baby. And babies are unpredictable sometimes.
I bought that silly ap and it was w waste of money. It has never applied to Ethan. No matter what "due date" I put in
I considered buying it too, but she's developing at different rates in different areas and I've never paid money for an app.
Mine is that I despise shaking hands. People are gross and I don't know where their hands have been. A is so lucky to have such a germaphobe mother lol.
Maybe mine should be a FFC. I didn't even know there was such a thing as "leaps." Never had anything to go by with DD and don't plan to use it this time either.
Have you tried rumchata in coffee or hot chocolate?
DH and I walked to the liquor store in a blizzard (for our area) for rumchata. Im not kidding. There was already about 6 inches and it ended being about a foot (more snow than we usually get all year), so we knew we'd be stuck in the house for a couple days. We drank rumchata and played carcassonne for three days. It was fantastic.

Hot chocolate I could maybe try with the rumchata. Coffee, no. I don't even like creamer in my coffee.

It's not something I'd tru if you didn't already have some, but it's pretty good.
I bought the leap app too. When dd is acting out of sorts I check it and see if she is in a leap. I think it is bs, but makes me feel better like there is a reason for being a mess.

Meh. I like the app because it lets me know what new skillls he might be getting at a certain time and becauae when W suddenly wanted to be on breast for hours a day while not eating (not even enough to register on a scale) rather than getting frustrated I looked at the app and it said "he wants to breastfeed all day, but doesn't really drink". Because I knew it was a leap thing I didn't worry about his latch/call the ped/lc. I made sure he was getting plenty of food other times and just let him be. This was a leap behavior because although he is a comfort nurser this was a whole new level and it only lasted about a week and a half (right during that leap time).
Also, hate normal egg nog but there is this secret family recipe that we use in our family and they egg nog turns into this kind of meringue type consistency and you eat it with a spoon. It's amazeballs. Maybe I'll post it on my blog if I can get some family approval. My family is kinda weird about it.

I guess my UO is that I strongly dislike people who get all judgey about daycare vs STAHM vs nanny. They act like there is one right answer. There are costs and benefits to all of it. You seriously can't just acknowledge that? Then GTFO.

I HOPE that isn't unpopular. IMO, it just shows a lack of maturity or ability to empathize.

abvintage I had a former coworker comment on my first day of work FB status about daycare a being Petri dish.. I was already upset. ETA: she was a SAHM until her kids went to college.

Anyway glad it's not a UO here. I know many acquaintances who are super judgey about daycare or SAHM, or nanny. They really feel like they have the answer. Right now we are doing all three. Daycare 3x a week, Me 1X a week, Nanny 1X a week. I want to tell them, "Judge me now bitches", lol.
There is no such thing as "too much" garlic. Maybe it's bc I'm korean and we use it on everything. Including eating whole cloves garlic raw or grilled with hot sauce. My ILs were talking about how supper at this Thai place we went too used too much garlic. NO SUCH THING. I'm not satisfied until it's seeping from my pores. Good thing my H loves me no matter what.
abvintage I'm hybrid now too with a modified schedule.
When I used to work full time (let's be honest, well over full time) the one question I got a lot was, "so where are your children all day while you work?"
It took everything in me not to answer, "In the file cabinet."
