Moms, my 18 month old son gets super upset anytime his dad and I hold hands, hug or kiss each other. At first this was cute but now it’s getting annoying. Anyone else’s kid do this? Any advice please? Thank you

This is just to rant lol. I love my mother in law but in small spread out doses. My husband wants her to come and stay with us for six months. She can be so extra, she complains when I don’t immediately respond to her Goodmorning WhatsApp messages, we are in different time zones for crying out loud. Now imagine that for six months!!

Did anyone disappoint their parent(s) when deciding to work in advertising?

If you aren't a parent, how do you feel about a company giving parents 6 weeks off? Salesforce is giving parents an extra 6 weeks off.

Currently have a 5th grade girl who is struggling with classroom behaviors and choices. When questioned, she says she wants to be a boy, but her parents won’t allow it. Obviously, she is struggling with more than making good choices at school. Her parents are very kind and appreciative of all we do for their child, but they are also clearly struggling with this. Anyone ever been in a similar situation or have some advice on how we can best support the student?

Father’s Day gift ideas?!

Any maternity clothing recs?

Went in for a scan yesterday because I was having spotting and cramping at 12 weeks. The OB saw fluid behind the baby’s neck and is referring us to see a high risk doctor immediately. NIPT was negative. I’m panicking. Have any of you been through this?

Hi there! Anyone tried to wean a baby off thumb sucking before 1 y.o.? She only does it in her crib and I would have no problem with it if she didn't have constant eczema on her hands from sucking. I give her pacis instead but she spits them out quickly and doesn't bother looking for them bc her thumb is right there. Any advice?

Any thoughts on Mother LA?

What’s your relationship with your mother in law on a scale of 1(very bad) to 10(fantastic)?

I’m curious to hear from people at other firms what is offered in terms of part time work or alternative work options for people that don’t really care about making partner and might want to work part time. I just had my second child and want to ask to come back from maternity leave on a part time basis but our firm doesn’t seem to have anything in place right now. If your firm offers this, what’s the billable requirement, how much of a pay cut is it, and do you still get benefits? Thanks!

Hi all I am asking this question on behalf of my kid (yes they are kids even though they are 23 years old :))

TIA

What’s slaloms maternity leave policy? How long do i need to come back to work before i can quit and not owe anything back to the firm for maternity leave?

Hi ladies, I am nearly at the point where I want to start having kids. However, I have made a career change somewhat recently (about 1.5 years ago) so I am not really experienced in the tech industry. Would having kids be detrimental at this point in my career (is it always detrimental)? Has anyone had experience of having a big career in Tech and being a mum? Any tips or advice?
Note: I do have a very supportive husband but his work is not very flexible necessarily.

Can anyone describe Amazon’s culture for an associate corporate counsel,based on team? I’ve read a number of comments on this app and across the internet about the company in general but the individuals never specify what team they’re referring to. I’ve heard from two corp counsel that AWS doesn’t have the best WLB but Prime Video does. I’d be interested to hear what this bowl has to add. The more data points I can gather before interviewing, the better.

I moved on and applied internally for a different role as a transfer. This new role is a promotion and my start date is next week.

Do I tell them I just accepted a new role and different position? Please advise

I’m 8 weeks pregnant and have thrown up every day the past two weeks. I know it will peak over the next few weeks and hopefully will get better after that but working is so hard when I feel like this. Any words of encouragement or advice to help get through this if you dealt with this?

came here so I can get feedback from neutral 3rd parties. I’m a messy person and my chaos is worse since the birth of my child. since there was a lapse in childcare and pandemic—i’ve been pretty much handling my kid (still night nursing) while working from home and managing everything related to my child. my husband is very neat and cleans up every evening. I was in the baby’s room trying to clean up today and my husband went on a long rant on how i’m so messy while he started mopping and (cont)

Moms who WFH - does your nanny bring their own lunch or expect to eat whatever is in your fridge?

For those who were on the depo shot— how soon after were you able to conceive?

Does anyone else hate cleaning and laundry? I feel like I’m constantly cooking for or cleaning up after my kids (and myself). And I truly despise this part of life, but it gives me anxiety to have a messy house. But it’s constant.

Has anyone here ever gotten a liquid facelift? I’ve never gotten anything before so I’m curious whether this is too aggressive to start with. If you got one, what did it cost? How much upkeep?

Ladies who use the steamer bags for cleaning pumps… what’s your process? You have to still clean with soap and water beforehand? The bag is so hot you need to use mittens? Trying to figure out the easiest way to clean in office without making a scene. Something about the wipes makes me feel like I’d still need to rinse it. Both of these seem to defeat the purpose of having less steps imo. And how do you dry them? I’m used to just soaking in a soapy tub, scrubbing, then hang drying at home. Sigh.
