We are trying for another baby and we plan to want to move by this time next year. I was curious - does it make sense to set up a nursery if we would plan on having the baby in our room from the time they are born until they turn a year? I did set up a nursery for my daughter but knowing we are moving - I know I’m jumping the gun here. I’m just trying to process all the big changes and it’s probably just me overthinking. My office is the one that will have to be changed to a nursery

I'm a first time mom and trying to choose a baby monitor. Have people liked the Nanit camera? Or is it overpriced and should I just get an audio monitor and Wyze camera?

5 months pregnant here. For the last couple of weeks I have this enormous dose of energy starting late afternoon to 2am/3am. It’s like I’m on Adderall or some weird stimulant. Anyone else experience this? What is going on?

Best app to find non-casual female matches?

Tinder & Bumble seem all too superficial and casual.

Matrimony apps seem to target usage by families.

Anything we can use on our own to search and connect before it goes to parent level?

Looking for advice. I’ve been back from maternity leave for a few weeks but my performance at work is just not the same. I used to be a high performer, but now feel like a knuckle head. I’m incredibly forgetful, have a foggy brain at all times. Anyone experience this? What did you do?

How long did you take for maternity? Progressive offers 4 weeks 100% paid… I plan to take a couple weeks of PTO. Just curious why everyone took.

Consulting and successfully being a mother to two young kids seem to be mutually exclusive

I couldn't keep a nanny the entire 2021 - longest one stayed 5 months. We tried doing it all ourselves but I was even more tired ALL the time - snappy with the kids too.

I decided to get an Au Pair. Just when I thought I could finally tell my teams that I have help, it's not working out.

Staffing has suggested an internal role for a while. I'm supposed to be going up for Director this year. Thoughts?

What is the federal parental leave policy? I’m new to government and having a baby soon. I know we’re given 12 weeks and have to sign an agreement to work 12 weeks after we return but are there other stipulations to a claw back period or how long we had to be at the agency first?

What games, toys, or science kits would you recommend for a kid who’s showing an interest in the sciences?

I need a cheap computer to use just for surfing the web/online shopping while I’m out on maternity leave. There are some cheap pre-black Friday deals at Walmart right now. Anyone who knows anything about computers willing to take a quick peek and recommend something for me??? thanks!

Do you think all these violent and hate filled attacks are because people aren't getting the emotional/mental support they need, whether it's therapy at any age or help they needed but didn't get from a social worker as a child? My coworker is sure this is the case, but I honestly think there's actually something deeper wrong either with how these people are being raised as children, or how the warning signs these people give off are ignored or swept under the rug to save face.

Do you see parent/community social media playing a role in what's happening in your school?

Newly pregnant here! Anyone get pregnant right after starting a new job? Nervous about telling my team and needing to take leave within my first year at the new company.

Baby formula recommendation? There’s so many brands and lines!

Best place to get mithai for a very pregnant women and her cravings in NJ? My bestie is craving Indian sweets in her third trimester, they recently moved to NJ so have little info on best places. Preferably sweet treats which aren’t over the top sweet. Her husband got something from Indian grocery store and that did not do the trick. I know this is probably a silly question, but she is driving pretty much everyone around her insane and I am worried about my future nephew’s wellbeing.

Considering adoption, any resources to learn more about what to expect? Not referring to the process but rather mental and financial prep. I already have a 10 months old (biological) so I'm very interested in how to manage being equally motherly towards both biological and adopted child.

Who lets their baby crawl around the floor at Newark airport? So weird to me. Ugh!

Seeing all of the moms at bring your kid to work day makes me 😄 I hope I can be like you one day!

Approved by doctor/HR to remain remote and it’s not going over well( we were told we would remain remote, which included giving up our desks, but are now being asked to come in two days). The person who seemed the most annoyed by my request is my direct boss. I found it odd because she announced she was only doing one day because she was pregnant and the director was basically like “ok”. I don’t want to put a target on my back and I do enjoy the work. Should I just bite the bullet and come in?

Has anyone renewed their diving license online? I’m on H1b, but I don’t have the visa stamped on my passport.

Can someone give some advice on what life and work as a financial planner/advisor is like, day to day wise? Or how to become one (like what skills to have, specific degree, etc)? I currently work in compliance but have always enjoyed personal finance, and have lately just been trying to figure my career options out while I'm still under 30.

I don’t really know who to talk to, so why not some strangers on the internet :) I saw some text messages on my husband’s phone.. mild flirting on one, some pretty explicit flirting in another (with his ex-wife no less 🙄). I can’t even wrap my brain around it and he swears it never went past flirting. I’d be an idiot to believe him right? Is there any coming back from this?

This is my first time being pregnant and I don’t have anyone around me that is or was pregnant recently. How is the first check up procedure at the OBGYN? Do they do blood work and ultrasound through the belly? Or is it a transvaginal ultrasound? Can you reject a transvaginal ultrasound? I’m excited but extremely overwhelmed and nervous by the whole procedure. Any feedback would help!

Insurance is scaring me into not wanting to leave my job for another. We're extremely spoiled at my current job with employer paid good health insurance but i hate my job and want to change career dirction. I found another job but its a contract to hire with no benefits. We'd have to go on my wife's insurance and her options aren't super great either. I was so excited to start this new career at a new company but now I'm petrified at paying for my son's pt or any other unexpected health issues.

I'm in the market for new kitchen ware. I see a few options for ceramic nonstick. But durability is questionable. Anyone recommend them? Any particular brand?

I’m worried I am too intense for my kids. I have always been a high achiever and had high expectations for myself and everyone around me. My kids are now middle school age and I am noticing they are maybe a little too worried about pleasing me and need to relax a bit. They get very good grades, etc but they both seem way too worried if they get a less than perfect grade. I try to reassure them that I love them no matter what but I’m not sure how to help them relax.

Anyone here remain in their relationship for the kids?? I’m miserable and idk how much more I can take.

Do any of you stay with your current job bc of the flexibility you’ve earned over the years? I’ve been at the same company for ten years and am SO READY to make a change but I’m scared to give up the flexibility.

For example, my 3 and 1 year olds were home with me all week because daycare had to shut down. I did as much as I could, joined calls and met all deadlines but I also stepped away a lot during the day to pay attention to the kiddos. I’m scared if I go somewhere new this wouldnt be ok.

How do you combat imposter syndrome especially at work? I grew up in a mentally abusive house where I was never good enough (smart, skinny, pretty,etc.). I’m in therapy and she’s big into positive affirmations but it’s not tackling the little voice in my head that tells me I’m too stupid for the job that I worked for. I’m curious to see what others have done

It's almost 10pm and my 2 year old will just not go to sleep. Have tried every trick in the book. Tomorrow we cap the nap at 1 hour but what to do tonight?!

Do you struggle with loving your job and having your kids not being raised the way you wanted, either by family or childcare? I have toddlers and want them to be taught manners, rules, etc but have to relinquish control to others for care.

Hey mamas, how many days a week do you cook?

Working moms in advertising - genuine question - what is a (relatively) low stress role in advertising or at an agency / consulting firm? I can’t do always on, high-stress jobs like account / client management anymore and maintain my mental health (I have small kids).

It’s taken a LOT of self honesty to admit this. Maybe I’ll change my mind in the future, but for now, I need a change to be fully present in my personal life and mentally healthy. Thoughts? Ideas? Thank you! 🙏

Have you used Oojo for cheap flights? Is it legitimate? Looking to fly internationally over Xmas break and prices are absurd. Saw some cheaper prices on this site so wanted to do some research first. Thank you!
