Maternity Monday: Multiuse Ergonomic Maternity Pillow

I slept with an assortment of pillows during both pregnancies — and here’s one that would have made it into my collection.
Filled with microballs for firm support that molds to your body, this ergonomic maternity pillow offers comfort wherever you need it. Put it under your back, bump, or feet. And after your baby arrives, keep using it for breastfeeding support. The slipcover is even machine washable for inevitable spills and drips.
Babymoov’s Multiuse Ergonomic Maternity Pillow is $49.99 at Nordstrom.

Any other Houston area moms without power? Hope you’re surviving!
This is a long-shot question, but does anyone have a recommendation for a mom and baby yoga class in the Atlanta area? I have had a really hard time finding something. Thank you!
Anybody else use the long weekend for intensive potty training? I’m sending good thoughts over to daycare, and really hoping they don’t put him back in a diaper!
DS is turning 8 next month. He just got a new bike but I want a couple presents for him to open. Ideas for this age? He’d love video games but we’re continuing to resist so anything there is out. No legos. Has a billion books and is a great reader already… pretty sporty but doesn’t really need new equipment…
How did you celebrate your 40th birthday?
Any divorced moms on here willing to share your story? How old were your kids when you divorced? I have just one preschool aged kid. I’ve been thinking a lot about what life would be like on the other side if I was to leave my husband. There isn’t any abuse, just a grating pattern of untruths and inequality, and I just don’t think I love him anymore. Kind of like that viral story about the husband who left the dishes in the sink one too many times. I hate the idea of not being with my kid every day though, and there are other realities like money and health insurance that I don’t know how I’d negotiate. Any advice or stories welcome.
I’ve obviously never had reason to write about it, but my kids (age 5 and 7) go to bed without drama, and pretty much always have. We’ve always had a defined bedtime routine that ends at a certain time no matter how much has been accomplished, although it is slowly creeping later as they get older. I will say that one aspect that I think helps us is they share a room- so if they’re still wound up and want to talk, they have each other and don’t bother us.
Is there anyone out there who actually has older toddlers (3+) or school-age kids who go to bed without drama? That link from a recent news round-up about parents using tons of melatonin led me to another one from the same website about “parents who dread bedtime,” which honestly seems to mirror a lot of what I see around me. It seems like a calm, on-time bedtime with two books and a sweet goodnight kiss is some sort of crazy pipe dream and that you’ll be lucky if your kid sleeps at all and it’s probably going to be in your bed. Was it always like this??
