I like the idea of a white flowy dress in the summer but am wary of looking too bridal.
Here’s a modern white midi dress that’s anything but bridal. This elegant dress is accentuated by laddering detail, flouncy capped sleeves, and a flared hem. The linen-blend fabric will keep you comfortable on even the warmest days.
This dress from COS is $175 and available in sizes 2–14.

Can people tell me about their experiences with a Montessori daycare/preschool? Considering sending my 2.5 year old to one. I loved my Montessori preschool and still have fond memories from it, but I have read that they are not the best for certain types of children and would like to get a better sense of what that means from a parental perspective.
I need to re-take a 3 hr glucose test in a couple of weeks. Does anyone have experience using the “Fresh Test” drink? I’m curious if anyone has comparisons of symptoms after the test better than the traditional glucose drink?
In my last test 3 hour test, I got pretty sick afterwards. My symptoms felt pretty similar to food poisoning. My midwife recommended I could try Fresh Test. But the only feedback online I see is about it tasting better. Which is not my concern.
I’m trying to decide what breast pump to order. Below are the options available from my insurance. Does anyone have experience with any of these pumps?
1. Ameda Mya Joy
2. Ameda Manual
3. Lansinoh Smartpump 2.0 Double Electric
4. Motif duo
5. Motif Luna without batter
How do I teach my kid (3.5) no hitting when he only hits at daycare when I’m not there? We’ve talked to him about it, read Hands are Not for Hitting, etc. It seems to only happen when there’s too many kids/activity near him, so I’m trying to tell him about using words to say you need more space. But I’m worried we’re going to get kicked out!
