This Anne Klein dress seems perfect for those of you who prefer wrap dresses for pumping and more — dresses like this are also great for weight fluctuations. I like the basic black with the abstract, colorful pattern, and it seems well reviewed over at Amazon. It’s $99, eligible for Prime, and (unfortunately) currently available in lucky sizes only.

Has anyone’s kiddo had a UTI? My kiddo is complaining that it hurts to pee, and is asking to go potty constantly, but doesn’t do anything once she’s sitting. She’s also a mess because of the preschool transition, so I’m trying to figure out if the potty requests are a stalling technique to stay out of class.
What do you do about art play areas at home for toddlers? We have a small kitchen and spend most of our time in our den. I have an almost two year old – we have been playing with the water coloring books but I feel like I should be branching. Crayons? Finger paint? There’s not a great space outdoors either. Just shouldnt worry too much?
Relatedly, favorite art supplies for the toddler age range?
I found out yesterday that I didn’t get the dream job I applied for. Trying to look on the positive side (my work is already established where I am, so I don’t need to prove myself at 6-9 months pregnant, or take a maternity leave so close to my start date) but I’m still pretty bummed.
So I’m playing hookey today, cuddling with DD who is getting over a summer cold, and allowing myself to wallow for the day. I might even go get a pedicure later.
So, my 2.5-year-old daughter seems B O R E D at daycare. I’ll be the first to tell you, my daughter is one smart cookie (said somewhat tongue-in-cheek; everyone thinks their child is the most brilliant, right?). She’s my first and only, and I’m a single mom. Don’t really know where to start, but her tantrums are making it clear to me that she needs more interactive learning experiences. I’d love to give her something that she can do, learn with, on her own, while I make dinner or breakfast. Is the answer to sign her up for some one-a-week class that Grandma can take her to while I’m at work? What does a 2.5-year-old *need*?
