I absolutely love my hand held travel steamer, are you steaming from inside the shirt and slowly pulling towards you? I bring my travel one on every trip I take and it always works well.

I try to buy fabric that don’t wrinkle easily. But still whatever ironing I need to do- I try and doit once every week (maybe an hour). While I am at it- I try and play something fun on the background for me to watch - maybe Golden Girls or something. That way, it seems less of a chore. Lol. As much as I hate ironing, I do like the look of a freshly ironed, neatly arranged wardrobe. And oh yeah- I do own a steamer. I barely use it though. It comes handy for those extra wrinkly shirts. Mine is too small though- so I need to fill it up frequently. Just something to keep in mind if you’re planning to get one.

I gave up a long time ago, decided it wasn’t worth my time, and have been sending my shirts out for years. Hang immediately upon arrival when traveling. Properly folded shirts in your luggage will only require a quick touch up, if anything.

Wanted to get an idea. My almost 10 month old baby never crawled not matter how much tummy time we did with her. She only wants to stand and is trying to walk (supported. She cannot pull herself up well and if she is on her back she doesn't know how to get herself up. She can roll over no issues. How can I help her? We do exercises to help her learn to pull herself up and roll her to the side to teach her how to move from back to sitting. I'm not sure how to help her. Ftm here. Anxiety!!!

Ladies, love to hear your thoughts. I’m in my late 20’s with a handful of close gfs (most of them live far) but I have a history of losing girlfriends. I’m self aware to a fault and am very supportive/responsive but other than my core group, it’s hard for me to keep gfs around other than 6 month span. It’s happening to me again right now and it’s really hard, she’s going through something and pulling away/towards others when we have been VERY close before. Anyone else have this experience?
