Don’t know about your kids, but mine didn’t come with a manual. What other things am I in for that my “friends” never told me about?

Once you switch to solid foods the poops will smell terrible.

Once your kid starts walking your life will change. Not for the better!

Just wait until he decides to switch day and night for his sleep patterns. That was always fun.

They can actually get so nervous they pass out. I thought my kid was knocked unconscious in the shower but he was so nervous about slipping I picked him up and then he passed out anyway. Was a crazy stream of events.

Wow! I wouldn’t know how to handle that. Glad he’s got you!

Are you me? Same my little man was in so much pain due to constipation when we started solids at 9 months, after trying a million things this worked for us like a charm

Prunes work best! But also fresh melons. Our little one has been eating since 4-5 months and since dropping breast milk frequency, has always had to strain a lot! Sometimes I help push his legs to his stomach to help poo, but honestly lots of water during the day, prunes and melons has made him go from pooing once every 3 days to 3 times a day. Lots of any kind of fruit will help, whatever they fancy

prune or pear juice. If they’re just starting solids try baby oatmeal not the rice cereal.

I have heard Potty Training is a nightmare

Depends on the kid. My 5 y/o daughter never once had an accident, and suddenly figured out potty training a bit after age 3 after a long evening in which we had her sit on a plastic portable potty until she went.

Prune juice and gripe water

This is a question about friendships. Two friends got into a really bad fight this past weekend. They have each asked me to hang out this weekend. What do I do? I don’t want to have to choose sides. One is a friend I’ve known a little longer and has been a good friend and so she would feel betrayed and angry if she knew I were still friends with her now-enemy. The other I’ve known less longer, but we seem more compatible. Advice??

Is it the smart move to take a pay cut and clerk for a judge?

Little context: I was an ED student, full time paralegal/clerk throughout my law school experience, and a single mother. I did not take advantage of the law school extracurriculars and missed out on clerk application deadlines my final year (2020). Would it benefit me to take a pay cut as a transactional clerk by about $20k to work as a clerk for a year then re-enter firm life? I’m transactional and enjoy that line of work.

Anyway I protect myself against the downside risk? (other than loosing my down payment)
