Parents whose kids share a room- do you have two dressers, one for each kid? Or do they share? My kids share a fairly large bedroom and a dresser, currently. We could get another one, I guess, but I would prefer not to take up more floor space with it. They are also girls who are close in age and close in size as well, so I’m wondering if maybe two dressers would help keep things separate or if that’s a losing battle. I grew up with a brother in a different room so this is new territory.
AwayEmily says
We have the six-drawer Ikea Tarva. Each kid has a side (so, three drawers to themselves). They are now 5 and 7 and it’s still enough room (though their pajamas are stored in a separate place).
Spirograph says
We have ikea Hemnes ones, but same. My daughter has a ton of clothes thanks to some generous hand-me-downs, but also a lot of dresses and I typically hang those, so everything still fits for now. Two kids share the 8-drawer dresser, and one has a 3-drawer dresser
Anonymous says
What is the problem you’re trying to solve — that they aren’t putting their clothes in their own drawers but are mixing up the drawers and then fighting over clothes? Or is it that you’re managing the clothing and something isn’t working well for you (not enough space, too much cramming clothes in drawers, etc.)?
Anonymous says
I’m managing the clothing for now (they are 5 and 7), but am running out of space. The answer might be to just cull their clothes for now while they don’t care that much, but looking ahead that doesn’t seem to be a good option since they’ll have more opinions.
Anon says
We have two dressers in their shared room, but my kids are same size, same gender twins and I have no interest in maintaining two separate wardrobes for them, so both dressers are shared. (The big one has daytime clothes and the small one has pjs, bathing suits, and sheets.)
Anonymous says
One dresser but each one has their own side of 4 drawers. I like the Ikea Hemnes 8 drawer version with drawer dividers. Socks and underwear in the top two small drawers, tops in middle drawer and bottoms in bottom drawer. Makes a great system for them learning to put away their own clothes. They each have a Ikea Hemnes two drawer nightstand. Top drawer is theirs to put what they want in, and then the bottom drawer holds pyjamas. Swim stuff and fancy clothes and various seasonal items and bins with ‘next size up’ in the closet.
Anon says
We have bunkbeds with built in drawers, a set of drawers with shelves, and lots of bins.
Child 1- one set of bunk bed drawers and bins on shelves + dresses hang in the closet.
Child 2- the other set of bunk bed drawers and top drawer on dresser
Child 3- 3 bottom drawers and a bin that sits under the changing table.
My one thought is as kids get older they like having their own space to store things. But whether this is clearly designated drawers/shelves/bins or a separate unit of their own, I don’t know that it matters.
NYC says
Any leads on good places to go in person kids clothing shopping in NYC? My 3 year old is so particular about what clothing she wears that Id love to be able to vet them with her before buying. We like the Boden kids look and it seems they may be available in person at Nordstrom. Any other ideas?
Anonymous says
I would go to a big Target (e.g. not in Manhattan; the Brooklyn Junction one is pretty pleasant, especially during the Sabbath) but that may not be your style.
Anon says
Honestly, +1 I take my picky girl to Target on occasion and do a whirlwind stock up. Sorry, I know that’s not helpful to being in NYC Manhattan. Warning: even with mine vetting as we buy, she still refuses to wear some of the stuff when we get home that she picked out, ugh.
NYC says
Thank you! Open to target
anon in brooklyn says
I like the H&M on 5th Ave by Rockefeller Center. They have a pretty good kids section on the top floor, plus my daughter loved the glass door elevator.
NYC says
Thank you! I’ll try this
NYCer says
There aren’t great stores in NYC in my opinion for every day type clothes for kids, unless your kid is way fancier than mine! I often show my daughter pictures of Cat & Jack dresses on the Target website to get her stamp of approval. You could try that approach with Target or other stores you like to buy from.
Anon says
I live in suburbia but often do this too because I hate the in-person Target shopping experience (it’s always so disorganized, especially the kids shoe section).
Bath Supplies says
What are some good bath toys for a 2-3 year old? We’ve been using bath crayons and then just a couple of small baby shark toys, and a spare toothbrush because kids are weird, but any other suggestions?
Also, we’re still using an infant tub but will need to transition into the big tub soon, but we’ve already seen how slippery it is for our kid – any recommendations for mats or stickers for grip?
OOO says

We have been using the Skip Hop whale bath mat for a couple years and it works well. When it gets moldy we wash it in the washing machine
anonM says
+1 to foam soap
Skip Hop buckets (Strongly prefer bath toys that can be put through the dishwasher because mold/throw up etc etc)
chunky paint brush (they can “paint” with the foam)
sea animal figurines (also washable)
for bribery when they are resistant to a bath–glow stick!
I didn’t like our mat so no rec there.
Also recommend the hanging net bag to scoop up toys. (You can also pretend it is a monster they have to “feed” the toys to. Made clean up so much easier in our house.)
AwayEmily says
Munchkin bath letters.
Anon says
We’ve been using a large kid’s bath mat from the river store. I needed a very long one to cover our entire tub bottom. The ones that have a kids theme on them are better in my opinion than the aesthetically pleasing solid color ones (those are slippery which defeats the purpose). For toys, bath paint and bath foam are 100% easier to clean than the bath crayons, which get thrown out in our house if they are gifted to us. We also use the bath color tablets to change the water color. Our most heavily used items are cups (old laundry soap cups are the most popular) and a paint brush to paint and mix up “potions”.
NLD in NYC says
I used this one in our tub: https://a.co/d/756FrFe. I hang it over the curtain rod to dry then roll in up into a cheap, but cute toilet brush holder for storage. For bath toys my kid still likes these (DS is 3.5 yrs): https://a.co/d/dGKqHMP.
Anonymous says
Any set of any size cups is always the biggest hit in the bath with my kids. We used a bath sponge when they were infants/babies, which is great because it takes up very little space.
Lydia says
my almost 3 yo is obsessed with using reusable water balloons (the silicone ones) in the tub. We do have an enclosed tub with shower doors, though, so splashing isn’t a big issue.
GCA says
All the stacking cups. Kids (of all ages, let’s be honest, my 8yo and 5yo would probably still enjoy a bath if we had one) love pouring and scooping. When DS was tiny I also punched holes in the bottom of an old yogurt pot and created a ‘shower’. If you prefer consumables, bath paint and bath tablets. If you don’t mind strong scents, for a treat we were once gifted some Lush shower jellies and bubble bars (but I’d probably avoid these if kiddo has sensitive skin).

Shaving cream
Cerulean says
I like IKEA’s bath mat since it’s nice and grippy and has a grommet for hanging it up. We hang it up after each use on a suction cup hook inside the tub. If you just leave it in place it will quickly get gross. It washes well is the washing machine, too.
Anon says
My 5 year old is very tall and getting close to the height limit in all the carseats we have (two Britax Advocates and one Cosco Finale – all 49″). I assumed we’d just switch her to the backless booster we’ve been using for travel, but a couple friends were kind of pearl-clutchy about it when I mentioned it. They have tiny kids though, and I’m not sure they understand how differently the seatbelt hits a tall kid. She’d likely be nearly 6, if not already 6, when we make the switch. Thoughts?
Anonymous says
Ignore your annoying friends. Car seats are based on the size of your child not how many candles are on their birthday cake.
Spirograph says
My tall kids all switched to a backless booster sometime around 5.5-6. Is it the most-safe option? No. 5 point harnesses are always safer. But it is not *unsafe* if your kids meet the size minimums. I wouldn’t worry about your friends’ pearl-clutching.
AwayEmily says
Switch her for sure! You could get a highback booster to sort of split the difference.
Anonymous says
Our kids moved to a backless booster at 8. Even a tall kid is not going to have great belt position for backless boosters at 5-6. We used the Graco Tranzitions and the 5 point harness mode at 5/6. They could buckle themselves in. This was great for road trips if they fell asleep. With a backless booster they basically can’t sleep or they lose correct position. For plane travel, we used the mifold backless booster if we didn’t have a lot of driving – that has a high back booster version now as well.
Switched to high back booster with seatbelt at 7, and backless booster at 8. I liked the Tranzitions so much that we had two in each car and two in my parents car.
Anon says
After fit, the main question is if your kid can sit appropriately in just a seatbelt. The 5 pt harness locks them in place. With a seatbelt they cant slouch, move the strap or get up, or it’s no longer safe.
Mary Moo Cow says
My kids are tall, too, and we switched them from car seat to booster to backless booster at different ages, based on their height, not age. We use the Graco TurboBooster stretch. Older daughter was in it from age 6-7 and just went backless when she turned 8; younger daughter, who is the same height as sister, was in a booster from age 5.5 because she was so tall.
Anon says
As long as she’s 40 lbs, you’re totally fine. I will say that while I use backless boosters with my 6yos (48″, 41#) for travel, I vastly prefer highback boosters for daily trips, because they have an easier time sitting so that the seat belt hits them properly. You can also use the Finale as a highback booster–I don’t love the fit on my kids but it works good enough for our second car.
Anonymous says
my kids switched to boosters in the 4.5-5.5 range. Basically kindergarten.
Boston Legal Eagle says
We also did a high back booster at age 6, then a backless booster now at age 7 for my older kid. He’s average height/low-average weight and I think is around 49-50″ in height now.
Anonymous says
It is about height and ability to sit properly in the seat without slouching. A high-back booster can help on both those fronts.
GCA says
I’d get a high back booster that converts to a backless booster eventually. We didn’t switch my (fairly tall) DS to backless till he was 7. The high back booster seemed to help him sit properly so the seatbelt was in the right position.
Anonymous says
Different people are going to make different choices. If she meets the requirements of the law in your state and the booster’s requirements then only you can tell what’s right for your family. It may also depend on behavior. Some kids aren’t ready to be out of a 5 point harness at that age (one of mine for example). I have tall children and we did use a high back booster for years – the older one is 8, 54”, and just moved to backless (and may still use the high back for a road trip as it’s more comfortable for him). The one we have transitioned from a 5 point harness to seatbelt positioning to backless. Using the backless one is waaaaaaay better for carpooling , I will say that! Especially after we switched to a narrower one that is easy to clip to a backpack.
HSAL says
You’re fine. I’ll be switching my tall 5s pretty soon. They’re the same height as when we switched my oldest at 7. I was basically just waiting for one of them to hit 40 pounds.
HSAL says
Oh, but just for comfort/ease of sitting I recommend one with a back. We keep a spare backless but the ones with the back are more comfortable.
anon says
If you’re looking for options, my average height 9 year old still just fits in the Chicco MyFit 5 point harness and should be able to use it in high back booster mode for awhile after he’s too tall for the harness mode. He finds it very comfortable and convenient.
upper elem school fashion says
I posted yesterday but I think my comment got eaten. What are your 9/10/11 year old girls wearing these days? I took my 10 year old shopping and I could not get over that everything looked like the Delia’s catalogue of my youth.
My kid and her friends are wearing/want to be wearing:
– Air force 1s, air max 270s for sneakers, Crocs, Birks, and those silly puffly slides (I don’t know what they are called, we don’t have them)
– baggy light colored jeans, some girls are wearing flared jeans. Snugger tops + hoodies on top (my daughter would love to be wearing a shirt that is more of a mini-shirt, our family rule/ the schools very loose rule is no visible belly buttons)
– flared yoga pants
– lulu lemon belt bags in fun colors
– shorts that I’ve learned are called “butterfly” shorts? My kid got them off amazon on the advice of her tennis coach who wore them all summer. They’re like bike shorts with swishy material on the outside that make them look like a skirt. Super cute.
– hooded sweatshirts with some personality (eg. a sport team they are on, a fave vacation spot)
– Sport stuff with their names embroidered on it
– stanley water bottles, or hydroflasks if their mean mom bought one last year and refuses to buy a second $40 waterbottle.
– tall socks, preferably nike in brand.
I see a couple kids with State backpacks but largely they haven’t caught hold around us. I think maybe they are not big enough for all the junk our kids have to carry back and forth to school?!
My kid runs sporty and most of her friends are slightly older (mine is an old rising 5th grader but many of her friends are going into 6th).
My 7 year old is firmly in camp “I still hate jeans but want to look cute” so rocks a lot of skirts and dresses. She’s got some athletic wear sprinked in. She’s going into 2nd and unicorns and sparkles have never been her thing.
My 5 year old wanted to buy a chocker at target. So she did. With her own money. And she rocks it with a velour type scrunchie and I can’t get enough of it.
Redux says
I have a 9 year old who by this standard is very unfashionable. She likes twirly dresses from wherever i find them on sale (primary, gap, ON, target, H&M) and wears mismatched socks with prints like unicorns and cats, and either sneakers or sandals from target. She has no interest in any of the trends you mention above though I do worry that this will hit her like a ton of bricks this year (4th grade) in the same way I remember feeling VERY UNCOOL when everyone in my 6th grade started the year dressed like a high school kid and I was still in elastic waisted short sets. I remember thinking– wait, when did they all grow up??

OP here- my daughter is the oldest but almost all of her friends have older sisters. I was pretty surprised by this sudden interest in clothes!! Fwiw she doesn’t care so much about brands, but wants to wear what friends are wearing.

TW: Miscarriage.
I just found out at my 10-week ultrasound that my surprise second pregnancy was not viable, and naturally started to miscarry shortly after. Currently waiting to see if it passes on its own or if I need further intervention (sidenote: I’m very grateful to live in a place where I can get whatever care I need in this situation). I know this is common and happens more often that we think, but ugh, it stings, especially since I was pretty far along and starting to show a little. Please send good vibes and anecdotes about conceiving healthy babies after a miscarriage.
Clementine says
That sucks and I’m so sorry. Be kind to yourself and yes, I can tell you that half my Instagram feed right now is adorable babies in Rainbow onesies for a reason.
Anon says
I’m so sorry you are going through this. Here’s something that I wish someone had told me: However you grieve this or deal with this is the right way for you. Take as much time as you need. Do what you need to do.
Also, I wish someone would have told me that retained tissue is a possibility and if the bleeding doesn’t stop after a few weeks, go get checked. I had to have a D&C for retained tissue a month after my loss, but it was a later second trimester loss. I lost twins at 18 weeks and was pregnant again within 4 months. She’s now 4.5.
Anon says
So sorry for your loss. Many friends had miscarriages and went in to conceive healthy children.
Anon says
I’m so sorry for your loss. I’m currently in the 3rd trimester with my rainbow baby. Going through a miscarriage is a big deal and it sticks with you in so many ways. Take as much time as you need to grieve.
FVNC says
I’m very sorry for your loss.
I had an earlier MC (around 6 weeks or so) and conceived again less than six months later. Kiddo is now 6. The fact that MC is common doesn’t lessen your loss, but I hope provides you comfort that it’s very possible to go on to have another, healthy pregnancy. Best wishes to you and your family.
Vanilla says
I just went through pretty much the same, a non-viable pregnancy discovered at my 9 week ultrasound. Not sure if it helps but wanted to let you know you’re not alone. I ultimately needed a D&C which after waiting to miscarry naturally and trying misoprostol honestly was a relief. It was not as bad as I thought. Sending you positive thoughts.
Anon says
This was helpful, thanks. I’m dreading a D&C but I know it might be the best choice.
Anonymous says
I had two miscarriages back to back. The first was later, 10 or 11 weeks, and my body never got the memo. I waited for 2 weeks and then had the D&C. Zero regrets about the procedure and I recommend it to anyone it is on offer to. Some fogginess from the anesthesia but the physical pain was minimal. The hardest part was not being able to pick up my 3 year old.
My second MC was early and “natural” around 4-5 weeks.
I went on to have a healthy baby after that and she is now 4.5.
Anonymous says
Sending all the hugs your way. I’m so sorry. And as people mentioned above, it’s ok to feel however you feel, whether that’s fine or grieving or different each day. I had a missed miscarriage around 10 weeks, discovered at 11, and was able to elect a d&c although I was spotting. If you end up going that route,The procedure was under anesthesia and totally fine, and helped me get some closure- waiting was very hard for me. That was my first pregnancy and I had two full term pregnancies after that and now have two kids.
Probably the most helpful thing was my husband’s grandma, in her 90s, talking to me about her own miscarriage in the late 1940s. And just so many women talking about their experiences.
anonamama says
I’m so sorry for your loss. My heart aches for you, I had two miscarriages last year. I echo some sentiments below: take as much time as you can/need, ask for help, grieve on your own timeline. I found “miscarriagehopedesk” on instagram and felt a lot of solace there. Sending good vibes your way.
Anon says
I am so sorry for your loss. I experienced a missed miscarriage at 8 weeks last year after a positive scan at 6 weeks and no sign of a problem (the early scan was because i had been seeing an RE). It was heartbreaking. One thing i didn’t expect was that it caused me a lot of anxiety in the first several months after it, and i couldn’t really explain what i was anxious about. Lots of bouts of crying, anxious thoughts, etc. that i wanted to not be experiencing but couldn’t figure out how. Be gentle with yourself. I had a D&C (my first ever surgery) and it was a breeze honestly. I am now happily pregnant and due soon. You will get through this, but be kind to yourself.
Anon says
I am so sorry. I went through something similar and it was very tough. At my 10 week ultrasound, I found out my baby had stopped growing at 8 weeks. My body did not naturally expel the baby, so I had a d and e. About a year later, I was pregnant with my rainbow and she is just amazing. It took me some time to be emotionally ready to try. Also, when I was pregnant again, I became terrified about what I would see in an ultrasound. It was terrifying and I had a lot of anxiety the pregnancy after, but ultimately worked out wonderfully. Sending lots of hugs!

I’m in my third trimester, and am so over being pregnant. I feel like all anyone asks me about is the baby. I want to think about something different. I’m considering taking a vacation before returning from my 22 week leave. I will not make a final decision till long after the baby is born, but figure it is something fun to consider. I’m in DC. I would go a beach that was drivable if it was a summer/fall baby. But this trip would be late February. Any ideas for where to travel with a 21-22 week old?
Anon says
I would consider flying! Flying with a 21 week old baby is usually pretty smooth; they will have received their first set of shots (maybe their second?) and will be cute and cuddly and not mobile. I personally hated driving with small babies.
anon says
Seconding the flying recommendation, if you want to go somewhere further than a 3 or 4 hour drive. We took our twins on their first flight at 12 weeks (for family reasons) and it was quite easy to travel with babies who still mostly just slept, ate, or wanted to be held.

I’m sorry, I got distracted by your 22 weeks of leave. That’s really great (by US standards)!
If you like snow — assuming the Eastern US gets any this winter — I’d head to the Poconos, or to Davis or Snowshoe in WV. Cold beaches can also be nice, and there are tons of cute towns along the Chesapeake. Or Annapolis if a city is more your speed.

The car seat question above has me wondering something which may sound extremely stupid. I have an infant so I am years away from this. But how do you car pool now that kids are in car seats, boosters, etc. for so much longer than when we grew up? Do you just not carpool until they are done with car seats, and how old are they at that point?
I might be overthinking this because growing up my town did not have buses (it was small enough to not be required to bus, but my elementary school was far enough across town I had to be driven, so I was carpooled to and from school starting in K).
anon says
The parents I know who carpool tend to keep extra boosters, at minimum.
Anon says
I’ve wondered this too!! I live in NYC so have never experienced. I think sometimes people have spare backless boosters since they’re cheap and people use them for taxis and stuff, so maybe you just use a spare?
Anon says
I was just thinking the same thing! When I was growing up once you outgrew a carseat, there was nothing else, just the regular seats in the car. So, by the time we were going to school, everyone was out of a carseat and this wasn’t an issue. But now, if you carpool to school, activities, or even just take the kids somewhere on a playdate kids need boosters until what seems to be most of the way through elementary school?
Likewise – can you fit 3 kids across a back seat row with them all in boosters?
Anonymous says
Extra backless boosters. Most people I know keep a couple around. At the early elementary ages even if kids are in high back boosters as their main seat, they will use a backless for carpooling.
My area doesn’t seem to have a lot of carpooling until upper elementary/junior high. Kids have aftercare at the school or are picked up for various activities but not a lot are in the same extra – cirr stuff on the same days.
Anon says
Basically you don’t carpool until kids are in K and can sit in backless boosters for at least brief trips.
HSAL says
Yep. My oldest didn’t start going in other cars until the second half of first grade. We have a spare backless booster that lives in our car.
Boston Legal Eagle says
More like 1st or 2nd grade here. Yes, when they can ride in backless boosters and you keep a few spares in the car. My older kid (about to be in 2nd grade) has not yet carpooled anywhere, but may next year with more activities. We’ll be offering up our new minivan!
GCA says
We have 2 kids and regularly fit two 8yos and a 5yo in the backseat of our Prius this way: one kid has a backless booster, one kid a RideSafer vest, and the third kid (my 5yo) is still in a forward-facing seat with five-point harness. It’s not impossible! I *think* we could get two backless boosters and a ff-to-booster convertible in there but since kid’s friend has a vest it’s not an issue.
Mary Moo Cow says
I’ve wondered that, too. My oldest is 8, and it hasn’t really come up. Families are driving hither and yon to different activities for different kids and no one broaches carpooling.
Momofthree says
You either have extra boosters in your car or the other parent gives you a booster to put in your car. I think it becomes more of a challenge the more kids you have/ the size of your car. If you have an only, it’s easy to carpool 1 other kid. If you have 3 kids, you basically need a minivan/ three rows to take another kid.
Anon says
I’m the person who asked that question and I wonder too! It seems like carpool is way less common than it used to be, at least for younger elementary age kids. I carpooled starting in K and we don’t know anyone who carpools for K kids.
Anonymous says
We don’t carpool yet, but I have 3 kids and own six car seats. Each of our cars has a set and the nanny has a set. I’m more worried about the plastic waste than the cost, but I can’t be installing and uninstalling car seats every day.
Anon says
Oh yeah that’s different I think. We only have one kid but we have extra carseats for my mom’s car and had a car seat for the nanny when we had a nanny. I’ve never known anyone to buy a car seat for a neighbor’s car.
Spirograph says
We keep one extra backless boosters in the trunk of each of our respective vehicles. We have 6 total because at one point all 3 of my kids needed one, but the oldest has outgrown it. My youngest is carpooling to camp with big bro & his friend next week, and we’ll just give that family one of our extra backless boosters for the week if they don’t have one. Thanks for the reminder i need to check on that…
(It was pandemic for most of the time my kids were old enough that I’d be OK with carpooling, but too small for backless boosters)
Anonymous says
Extra seats, then when they hit ~8 they don’t need one at all. My kids are a mix of boosters + outgrown.
I have 3 kids and carpool everywhere. I have 4 backless boosters between cars so can shove them all in the minivan if i have to.
Anonie says
We keep 2 extra booster seats in the back and put them in the seats for kids who need them. Before kids move into boosters, correct, we didn’t really carpool (but kids also don’t tend to have activities to which you’d need carpools at that age).
