I wish I had this fun jumpsuit when I was pregnant!
The lightweight, stretch chambray fabric will take you from spring straight into summer. In addition to the stretchy fabric, there’s an elastic back that will accommodate every stage of your pregnancy. For after baby’s arrival, there’s a nursing/pumping-friendly button front. Flattering flutter sleeves and practical pockets are the ultimate finishing touches.
This jumpsuit from The Nines By Hatch is $38 at Target. It’s available in sizes XS–XXL.

This looks so cute for a toddler
Any tips on how to find a good Math tutor? My daughter (3rd grade) needs some help – she was getting above average scores for Math, but seems to have fallen behind in recent months. My husband and I have tried to help her, but it’s difficult with both of us working full time and I’d rather spend whatever family time with her on fun stuff. How should I go about finding a good tutor for her? Google throws up so many options, but would prefer something that’s more local / with trusted reviews.
I’ve always skipped over the eating/feeding posts but it is coming back to bite me. I have a 5yo that is down to eating pasta, toast, limited fruit, bagels, hotdogs, and sometimes quesadillas. He will, of course, happily eat sweets and has discovered the beauty of Sun Chips. He has never eaten a vegetable beyond the baby years.
I really, REALLY aim to prevent food struggles in the house because of my own history of disordered eating. The pediatrician isn’t concerned and basically says to just make sure he takes a vitamin.
Any advice? Do I try and push veggies to “earn” dessert? Say he has to try things? It feels like all the things I’ve tried to stay away from but I worry that we are just setting some terrible habits like too much snacking. Help.
Note: I feel like we model good habits as does our older child. My 5yo is also VERY stubborn.
I have two kids, with a five-year age difference between them. The bickering over the DUMBEST stuff is out of control. They’re both turning into little scorekeepers, super concerned with what each is getting, in terms of privileges. And hand-to-heart: We try to keep things as fair and even as possible, but things are simply going to be different at times due to their ages. The younger one is constantly needling the older one to get a reaction. The older one cannot let anything roll off his back. Basically, the only way there’s peace in our house is when we keep them apart, which is not the sibling dynamic I’m going for. It’s driving DH and I insane. Any thoughts, especially when there’s a big age gap and not many common interests?
Anon from Friday looking for medical ID – check out Laurens Hope, I’ve owned a few of those and love that they’re interchangeable and they blend in with outfits in the best way. Medical professionals are trained to look for medical IDs so I wouldn’t worry about it not being “obvious” if you’re wearing a bracelet or necklace.
Does anyone have a how-to-draw book they’d recommend for an average kindergartener? She’s worked through this one: https://www.amazon.com/Little-Skill-Seekers-1-2-3-Draw/dp/1338306359/ref=asc_df_1338306359/ and really liked it. Looking for something similar but it’s hard to judge from reviews what’s age/skill appropriate.
How much time do you allow your kids to watch TV when they are sick and you have a lot of work to do? Asking for a friend ;)
Do you think wanting to outsource everything (laundry, meal prep, housekeeping, childcare, etc) is a bad reason to go back to work?
Favorite brands of toddler boy underwear for a mostly potty trained 3 year old boy? When we first started potty training I bought a lot of pairs and was mostly focused on the characters on the underwear, and quality of underwear was a distant second consideration since I figured many pairs would be lost to accidents.
However, now some of that underwear is getting a little tight around the waist, and we’re (thankfully, knock on wood), having far, far less accidents. It wasn’t the best quality, and it definitely shows. So, what do you like for your boys? Can be briefs or boxer style. TIA!
Building on the math tutor recs, I recently learned two kids in DD’s first grade class go to “math school” after school on Wednesday at the local Russian math center. Kiddo is at “hardest” private school in our large city – one of those you might have heard of – so I’m guessing these kids qualify as “above grade level.” But also they’re getting a great education at school. Have any of you done this? Am I just missing something?
I guess I ask because DD is in the accelerated math group in her class and math’s her favorite subject, so I know she’s doing quite well in it and enjoys it. But I am not sure if I’m missing the boat here on really nurturing this or if I can just ride the school train only. Is this something parents do in 2022 that they didn’t in the 1990s? I also realize we are talking about the most crazy competitive group of parents out there – but that means I at least try to pay attention and then opt out if I so choose so I don’t miss something I should be looking into. Agh.
Looking for ideas for a place to go in October, possibly for a solo trip, possibly with a friend or two. It’ll be my gift to myself after weaning the baby. Would like to go somewhere with fun activities, not a party scene but drinks available, good food? I was thinking Turks and Caicos Club Med but I’m a little nervous about it being wild. A friend suggested Tulum. Other ideas?
I was supposed to be on vacation over Easter but I had a pressing work deadline. I got it done but missed basically my whole vacation. Today is my last day of vacation and I “only” worked on it for 2 hours. Now I am hiding in a coffee shop before going home to my kids for fun and playing (even though I am beyond tired and stressed from travel + work). I usually love my job and this was a cr*ppy confluence of things. But I wanted to vent because I am sad and really needed that vacation.
