And — here are some of our latest threadjacks of interest – working mom questions asked by the commenters!!
- The concept of “backup care” is so stupid…
- I need tips on managing employees in BigLaw who have to leave for daycare pickup…
- I’m thinking of leaning out to spend more time with my family – how can I find the perfect job for that?
- I’m now a SAHM and my husband needs to step up…
- How can I change my thinking to better recognize some of my husband’s contributions as important, like organizing the shed?
- What are your tips to having a good weekend with kids, especially with little kids? Do you have a set routine or plan?
When did you move your baby from a rear-facing car seat to a forward-facing one? Did you base your decision on height, weight, or age (or all 3)? I have a long lean 16 month old who kind of hates her rear-facing bucket seat, but I feel like I need to keep her rear-facing for at least a few more months. I’m also not anxious to drop $150 on a new car seat. So, advice? Also, what car seat did you get when you moved to forward-facing?
Has anyone moved with a newborn? We are contemplating a cross country move with what will be a 6-8week old. And two cats. And we’re insane.
Does anyone have any experience, anecdotes, or horror stories?
No comments? Here, I’ll leave one – how is your office and your daycare handling the 4th of July this year? I just found out both daycare and camp will be closed the 3rd – oops, didn’t pay attention to that on the calendar. My office is giving us the choice of taking off the 3rd or the 6th, which I think is a kind and reasonable way to handle it.
Happy weekend all!
